I photographed Helen for the first time yesterday at her home, which has plenty of space and some good places to make use of natural light. Our half day shoot was pure pleasure and has yielded some lovely images, not least because of Helen's superb attributes as a model combined with an infectious personality full of humour and understanding. Helen is rewarding and stimulating to work with. I cannot think of a better model and very much look forward to working with her again. Very highly recommended.

I had my second shoot with Helen this weekend and it left me wondering why it has taken me a year to work with her since the last time. I have too many nice things to say about her, I can't think of a nicer model, I really can't.

I've worked with Helen a few times now and I always enjoy working with her. It's been a difficult time for me lately, both personally and professionally, so it was important to me to have a relaxing and enjoyable time, with as much chatting as photography. We get on well and it is always a pleasure to chat to Helen. Her bubbly personality is perfect for cheering you up. She will always be highly recommended by me and we already have plans to work together again soon.

I had the honour to be the first to shoot with Helen in 2017 and after a short break. We shot in her Chippenham house which was beautifully clean tidy and ready for shooting in.

This is probably our 12th to 15th time working together, she has a fresh vitality in every shoot, always a pleasure to shoot with and great to be around.

She is willing and open to your ideas (no matter how nutty)within her limitsof course, quite happy to try something just to see if it'll work.

I know that we will be working together again in 2017 and beyond.

The pictures were just amazing her ability is fantastic in front of the lens, of course she is totally recommended to all photographers.

I had another shoot with Helen in Glastonbury during December and can as always heartily recommend to both experienced and amateur photographers this lovely vivacious lady who without fail poses beautifully (even in trying conditions) yet is always a good laugh along with it (such as when grumpy farmers end shoots abruptly by showing us off their land! ;-) ). Arduous shoot conditions aside, I secured a fantastic set of photos for post processing selection and enjoyed hanging out in the Abbey Tea Rooms afterwards and catching up. All the best to you Helen for 2017 & thanks for two brilliant shoots - remember its onwards and upwards! Next time you are in the South East, feel free to drop by. Best, Liz xx

Had my first shoot with Helen and am still a little lost for words.

Wow is the first thing that comes to mind.

We had had some excellent pre shoot coms, discussing ideas and themes. Some involved a sadder side of Christmas. Helen brought some real emotion to these shots and I'm really pleased with the results.

The three hours flew by far too quickly. Helen the true professional flowed from pose to pose with speed and ease. Making for an fun and productive shoot. Resulted in the most images I have ever shot in one shoot, Will take me for ever to sort through and edit.

Helen was friendly, fun, humorous, giggly and a bundle of energy. Like a little modelling whirlwind. Such a pleasure to work with.

Highly recommended from me, along with the vast amount of references she already has.

Look forward to working with her again in the future.

Thanks again Helen

Yet another shoot with the fabulous Helen, this time with another model Emma Willis, and what a blast it was!!

Helen is a superb model - stunningly beautiful with a gorgeous figure. She produces such amazing poses which really makes it so easy to get awesome images!

Helen is also great fun to be around. She has such a wicked sense of humour that every shoot with her just flies by.

If you haven't worked with Helen before then all I can say is "what the hell are you waiting for?!?" - book her, you will not be disappointed!

Thanks for an awesome shoot, Helen! xx

This was my second Duo shoot hosted by Helen in her home studio. Helen was excellent in arranging the shoot with Emma Willis. As ever Helen had a range of costumes and accessories for us to use. She has professionalism, poise and is extremely experienced. Helen worked really well with Emma giving some great pictures, from classic nudes to more abstract images. A shoot with Helen is always a delight, she is funny and the shoot always goes too quickly. I highly recommend Helen to any photographer, especially if you want that high-end, classy picture. I am already planning my next shoot with Helen.

Thank you again

I have been following Helen for some time and truly admired her work that is shown on her port, so a last-minute casting call from Helen for an afternoon following a cancellation and it was too good an opportunity to miss

Short and very good emails and we had organised the shoot which was to be at her home location and the every delightful Emma Willis would there for a duo Shoot.

Wow the weather was cold and damp and very overcast but the warmth of her and Emma's welcome soon made me forget all about the weather

Fabulous shoot with both girls working hard and they had some lovely suggestions as the house is quite large with great areas to shoot in

We shared the back of the camera several times as the time flew by and we agreed on some great images.

Helen has so many references here on Purpleport and elsewhere and from the time I spent in and Emma’s company was so worthwhile and look forward to repeating the experience again

Helen and Emma are both highly recommended and if you get a chance like I did then grab it both hands you will not be disappointed.

I had the pleasure of shooting with Helen at Wolfe Cottage. It was certainly an experience :) From the first moment of meeting I knew this was going to be a memorable shoot and I wasn't wrong. Helen has a deliciously twisted sense of humour and the laughs and giggles just kept coming. Helen poses flawlessly both with and without direction. I highly recommend working with the delightfully mad Helen and hope to do so again in the future. :)

We had the pleasure of hosting Helen at Wolfe Cottage Studio last weekend, when she made her return visit here.

What can we say that has not been said about Helen before? Probably nothing . . . . .

. . . . However it's all SO good, it'll be worth repeating again away!

She's a consummate professional, hard working, incredibly versatile and very very beautiful! (but I guess this could be said of some other models on this site, BUT no one else has the "Helen Factor".

For those of you who know Helen, I need say no more, but if you've not yet worked with Helen - then you are missing out! She's such fun to be around, amazingly energetic and a total delight.

Can't wait to have you back again!

I have had many shoots with Helen, this is probably the 16th, and I always love the passion, emotion and fun that Helen brings to the shoot. She has a great collection of outfits and a highly professional approach to giving the best shot in any circumstance. Helen gives any picture an air of sophistication with her great classical look. I always enjoy my shoots with Helen, she is fun to be and puts her all into the shoot. I highly recommend Helen and look forward to many more shoots with her.

Thank you, R

I have had a difficult summer and am very sorry that this has caused considerable disruption and cancellations for which I apologise to all affected. However, Lady Helen was prepared tom look past this and allow me to photograph her for the 2nd time, this one at my home in our delightful summer house. Helen is so confident and chatty, time flew as it does, great model, attitude and personality. Thanks Helen, especially for letting my wife try out her portrait/art shots! Thanks again Helen, great shoot, most highly recommended

My third shoot with the always lovely Helen Diaz was a lot of fun. This was a duo shoot with Soria and we were able to cover several ideas on a spontaneous half day home shoot. Working with Helen is always a very rewarding experience and it is great that we are still finding some new things to shoot.

Helen is always open to new ideas and will do what she can to make those ideas a reality.

The lesson here is never to turn down the chance of photographing this excellent model if you have the opportunity.

My thanks to the talented Helen Diaz for arranging a 'Girl Duo Home Shoot' with the equally talented Soria. Achieved many super shots - fun and a little 'unpredictable' :) session with this amazing duo ! Thanks again for your attention to detail arranging this Shoot - professional as always (Y) Martin.

Just had my second shoot with Helen; immensely enjoyable - she is so friendly and relaxed that it is as much a social occasion as a photoshoot. As a model, she is beautiful in face and figure, flexible in attitude, inventive and cooperative in posing. Difficult to know when to stop the compliments such are her attributes.

She also makes as much coffee as you wish.

I had a shoot at Helen's home today in Chippenham.

As usual, she put up with my many props and despite the lack of adequate light, we managed to get some good images.

I have worked with Helen many times now and she is always a joy to work with.

I will be calling her again soon.

I always get wonderful pictures with her.

We always have a lot of fun.

Helen is a great model who always gives her best to a shoot.

Added to that, she is a nice person too.

Today I went to Helen's wonderful home in Chippenham, for a home shoot which I can honestly say was one of the best shoots I have ever had.

Helen's looks and gorgeous figure are, of course, legendary and her bubbly personality and fabulous sense of humour are beyond compare. This was my umpteenth shoot with Helen and I would like to believe that we are now firm friends. Oh so naturelle and highly professional with little or no direction from me needed.

An indoor home shoot was a first for me but Helen made it plain sailing all the way. So many different images to get edited and what a delightful task this will be. So watch this space and if you have never had the absolute joy of working with Helen, I recommend you get that sorted and book her as soon as you can. It will be an experience to savour for ever.

Thank you Helen, and don't forget we agreed to have a return match asap.

What can you say about this amazing talented model that hasn't been said before.

The home she shoots in has so many opportunities and the natural light even on a very dull day was easy to work with.

Helen poses so easily that no direction is needed.Even after a flight back from Iceland she was full of energy a super conversation.

If the opportunity to shoot wth Helen comes your way don't hesitate, you will not regret it for a moment.
