I recently had a shoot with Helen and it was a blast. Helen is a wonderful model and lots of fun even shooting remotely. She seemed to enjoy our session and changed poses with both of us sharing ideas along with her very capable assistant. I highly recommend Helen to anyone that’s looking for beautiful and talented model that is a joy to photograph.

I did a shoot with Helen.

I have no words to describe what happened.

There is in fact no language in existence that can adequately describe the experience.

I see a future in which quantum linguists have to create a new pan-dimensional method of communication that breaks all known laws of verbal and written physics, which then transcends the inadequate lexicon of communication we have today.

I may not live long enough to see that day.

All I can do is use todays universally accepted means of imparting information.

A thumbs up.

Had a second shoot with Helen today - what can I say that hasn't already been said?

She's great fun and makes the shoot a really enjoyable experience.

As I've developed my skills, she's been able to take the ideas for poses and setups I had and make them work exactly as I had intended.

Helen is also really creative can also come up with some great ideas that I hadn't thought of to produce some amazing results.

If you get the opportunity to work with her, do it- you won't be disappointed...

Thanks to Helen for a great shoot.

My second shoot with Helen (and I do hope that there will be more) - this time at my home. I outlined my sketchy thoughts on a couple of scenarios and she came with a suitcase of just the right dresses, shoes and scarves. Somehow we managed to use most of what she had brought for the shoot and we even swung along to just the right soundtrack.

Once again there was a great deal of chat and humour and although we didn't manage to solve the worlds problems we gave it a go. Such a relaxed and enjoyable session and once again she was charmingly tolerant of my playing around with lights and settings.

She is a total professional, excellent with her communications, innovative and photogenic. I would totally recommend her.

My second and equally engaging shoot with Helen. Full marks for not being phased as I took over her studio and three hours flew by with creativity and great conversation. Thank you and yes of course highly recommended x

This is the third time I have shot with Helen and this time at her studio. I chose a Viking theme for this particular shoot. Helen was amazing in the way she portrayed the two characters, a viking warrior and princess with some lovely poses. She has a very friendly personality and I would certainly recommend her.

Helen is an amazing model who already has 1500+ references and is a bit of a legend in the industry.

It was a great shoot. Helen is very welcoming, personable and talkative.

We had waited years to shoot and the shoot did not disappoint. She can do all styles from fashion to art nude and has a vast range of outfits and poses. As her photos show she has her own distinctive style.

I hope to work with Helen again and am so glad we got round to doing the shoot.

I had a great shoot with Helen at her 'Heavenly Bodies' studio.

I had a couple of vague ideas in mind, with a boxful of stuff, so we worked on those for a while. Then we started adding props and clothing items from the studio, so that I ended up with a range of images to work on: Not only the ones I had planned, but also some other themes as well.

The studio is a nice, well-equipped space, with the background and lighting I wanted, and a range of props which we dipped into. It is easy to find, with parking right outside.

Helen was always enthusiastic, contributed lots of ideas and energy, and made the shoot very enjoyable. I came away with some great images, and more ideas for next time.

Thanks for a great shoot

I'd been looking forward to this shoot Gold body paint ever since it was mentioned a month ago. I'd brought along a few accessories to go along with the theme. Helen was pre-painted before three of us photographers turned up which meant we could start straight away after a cuppa. Helen was her usual bubbly self while we photographers were more sedate taking turns to shoot each set. It all worked exceedingly well and I'm really pleased with the results. The other vital factor, who'll get a proper mention in my reference for the studio, was Roger - painter, lighting guy etc. This was a fantastic shoot and I'd do it all again if I could.

I had a fantastic second shoot with Helen, as part of a body paint group shoot, organised at her home studio.

The shoot was perfectly planned and Helen and Roger are very welcoming hosts. All the lighting was set up by Roger throughout the shoot and that made it so simple to concentrate on capturing some wonderful images with Helen.

Helen is so easy to work with, poses incredibly and is such a fun person to be around. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to capture some truly incredible images.

Helen is a wonderful model. Great personality and a natural when it comes to posing. I learned quite a bit myself and came back with many great pictures.

Helen is a wonderfully expressive model. I can only reinforce the outstanding references already provided for this experienced and professional artist.

We shot in Heavenly Bodies Studio - perfectly equipped, with lighting perfectly set by Roger.

An incredibly enjoyable shoot. Highly recommended.

It was a pleasure to photograph Helen once more at Heavenly Bodies Studio. On this occasion she arraigned herself in fine red and violet chiffon, expressing a wide range of moods- spanning light to dark - for us to capture. The results are very satisfying, including the images we took on black and white film.

Ever the consummate professional,as well as pure fun, Helen is a delight to work with. Highly recommended, as always.

A real pleasure to work with Helen this week. Fun, bubbly, enthusiastic and we made some great images. Very much looking forward to working with her again in the future. Thanks Helen.

I first met Helen over ten years ago and unfortunately I waited all this time to work with her. Helen is bubbly, enthusiastic, creative and fun to work with. Working in her home studio we had a very relaxed fun shoot and I came away with a lot of great images. a great shoot and a lot of laughs too. Thanks Helen

I've been a bit amiss by not keeping up with my reference writing. I've had two recent shoots with Helen and another is planned in a few day's time. I had lost my motivation to some extent and my plan to reincarnate my mojo involved shooting with Helen. All shoots with Helen are pure joy - she's mad as a box of frogs so with much hilarity we work through our plans. More often than not,. we veer off and try something different which invariably turns out to be the best shots. It's no exaggeration to say that she has helped me rediscover my passion for photography again. For this I owe her my undying thanks. Of course I'm looking forward to my next shoot with this brilliant model.

This was my fifth shoot with Helen and as always it was fun. This time we decided to do a bodypaint shoot and so her husband painted her gold for me in her studio. We tried a variety of shots and her husband was very helpful with setting up the studio and the lighting. Well done to both of them for making an enjoyable shoot and especially to Helen as that studio was a bit chilly!

Had my first shoot with Helen and what a grest shoot it was.

Helen is a great communicator and we both knew exactly what to expect from the shoot. Helen was prepare with lots of outfits and accessories. Her posing is legendary and her look is exceptional.

The shoot went by very quickly and was so enjoyable. Productive, efficient and thoroughly entertaining.

Highly recommended and looking forward to another shoot.

We used Heavenly Bodies Studio which was very convenient

Working with Helen was an absolute joy. I’d consider myself an experienced photographer but I’ve not done a studio shoot since the Rona virus. Helen was very patient and able to work at a pace that was comfortable as I use MF lenses. Helen had a good range of outfits, offered input and basically made the whole shoot very easy. Now I am starting to edit I’m finding some cracking images which of course I’m delighted about. I’d recommend Helen to any photographer.
