Helen stayed with my housemate and I, during her recent tour of Scotland and I enjoyed the experience!

Communication with Helen prior to her arriving was excellent, both in arranging the type of shoot we both wanted to achieve and the living arrangements during Helen's stay.

Helen is beautiful, both in looks and in spirit. It was very enjoyable working with Helen, a person who delivers great poses and has a great awareness of the camera. Helen was very good spirited and kind in working with me on my ideas, including the cling film dress!

I felt at ease with Helen in my home and would welcome Helen again!

I met Helen at a recent group shoot. I really enjoyed chatting with her, sharing outfits and watching the beautiful way she works. She has such a zany, fun personality It would be brilliant to work with her again.

I've known Helen for a while now and we last shot together a good few years ago. Helen has truly blossomed into a beautiful woman, strikingly so. We had great fun and as is my norm, a very relaxed shoot with food. A man and his stomach are good friends. Very happy to recommend Helen for any shoot and also as good company, I look forward to working with her again.

Thanks Hells.. You're mad as a box of frogs on acid but I love ya! :)

I'm afraid this is a little late! but I found it difficult to find words suitable to describe Helen! Beautiful, zany, great figure and all the things already said about her by so many more elequant than I.

She is the epitome of all that a model should be, great sense of humour and really professional, but above all so much fun to work with.

Helen was very patient with me while I faffed about with my new camera and although I got some brilliant images, that was definitely more down to her than me!!i I will do better next time! :)

Very,very highly recommended.

Thanks so much Helen, looking forward to next time.

TL;DR: if anyone ever has the opportunity to work with Helen, don't hesitate and just GO FOR IT, she's a wonderful, kind and warm person and a great and professional model to work with! :)

So, I worked with Helen when she was on a short trip to Holland. Communication was perfect, all the way through to when we actually met in person. Helen's quite prompt in replying to messages, she will do so as soon as possible. Long before her actual arrival, we had already discussed dates, times, themes, props, location, the works. So when I picked her up, it was like I already knew her a little bit and we got along very quickly :)

I'm glad that I could help her out by giving her a place to stay for a few days; I got to know Helen a little bit better that way (although I'll probably never figure her out completely :P). She's a wonderful person with a lot of interests and a lot of sources for her creativity, and there's really a lot more to her than meets the eye. She has a wonderful (albeit not your usual, run-off-the-mill) sense of humor and she's generally very fun to have around! She makes you feel at ease almost instantly, great for both starting photographers (if you're one of them and read this: book her!) as well as more seasoned ones like myself. She can even be quite educational, as I don't believe I've picked up as many new English words and phrases with any other model as I did with Helen :)

The shoot itself went great as well; Helen needs little direction, as she goes fluidly from one pose to the next. As we went from one spot to the next, we discussed what we'd be doing and then just do it :) Helen makes great use of the environment as well, using trees, branches and whatever she can get her hand on that's lying or standing around. Never at one point were we stuck for ideas. She brought the props I requested and then some (they should really lower the weight limit of luggage in airplanes ;)). One thing that IMHO makes her stand out from other models is the complete metamorphosis she can go through during a shoot, Helen just has *so* many expressions and poses.

All in all, I had a lovely couple of days and a great shoot before finally dropping her off at the airport again. Long story short, I very highly recommend working with Helen; if given the opportunity, I would very, very gladly work with her again in the blink of an eye!

What do i say about Helen?

She is one hell of a lady! Beautiful, funny and extremely bubbly!

I met her on a group shoot that I had arranged with my partner ThePhoenix for PortraitX and we got along like a house on fire! Her modeling is by far some of the best i have ever seen. It would be a real shame if you do not book her for a shoot. She is more than worth your time, money and efforts. I will not hesitate to work with Helen again.

Had another shoot with the lovely if not slightly mad Helen. Despite lots of laughter, giggles we got lots of great shots. It was good that Irida was also here, more giggles and lovely pics. They got on very well and are thinking of coming back again.

Helen is a beautiful lovely lady and despite her calling me granddad, I will look forward to meeting her again.

Worked with Helen on a location shoot the day before the rains came! Although a little out of her comfort zone, Helen was a joy to work with. She was bang on time with a suitcase of outfits including all the items we had discussed. A bit crazy (!) but bubbles with fun and enthusiasm!! She loves figure work and doesn't mind getting wet or dirty...what's not to like, already putting together some new shoot ideas with this lovely young lady....

I had the pleasure of working with Helen while she was on tour in sussex and found her to be a lovely person with a great character full laughs and fun, however in front of the camera she became a truly professional model with poses and idea's flowing all the time.a superb shoot with some terrific images.

Pre comms where spot on and I was keep up to date at all times.

I have already put my name down for when Helen comes this way again.

Again thank you Helen for a great shoot.

Shot again with the great and good Diaz who said that she was not on top form! What absolute rot. First she dragged me up half a mountain and then she delivered an old derelict church and then she agreed to wear a dirndl for an absolutely fantastic shoot in the Welsh countryside. Diaz is never off top form and there is no way i'm not going to recommend her to any budding photographer who wants to work with a really great and top model. Don't delay book Helen today. Thank you.

I had a truly tremendous day working with Helen last week and what a fantastic crazy experience it was. We'd had excellent fun pre communications prior to meeting leading to a fantastic days shooting with Helen being ever creative and engaging. What can I say that hasn't already been said ...bewitching, captivating, absolutely stunning and a real pleasure to be with. I loved every minute of this inspiring day and have no hesitation in recommending Helens creative talent. I hope to have the opportunity to work with her again real soon and thanks Helen for a truly brilliant day....D

What a giggle, I had the pleasure of shooting with Helen for a second time, this time as part of her charity studio day at Spitfire Studio. She is so much fun to work with, making me feel at home right away and keeping me entertained throughout the shoot! We got through a fantastic number of sets and poses in the time, Helen is just a brilliant model. Highly recommended!

Aerlise

I worked with Helen on the charity day she organised, she was great fun to work with and very professional yet still bubbly and chatty throughout.

I also worked with Helen on Portrait X and again she was amazing to work with, as an experienced model she gave me lots of help and inspiration for my future work as a model.

I would highly recommend working with Helen, you won't regret it.

Just had the pleasure of working with Helen on a charity shoot, I had been looking to work with her for sometime but the timing was never right.

This has now been remedied , truly a great model to work with amazingly positive attitude and very creative .

I would be more than happy to work with Helen again

Wow....yet again I get to work with the force known in my world as "The Diaz"....

I love this woman....everyone who knows her..works with her is totally spellbound by her beautiful personality and sheer natural beauty in every single shot taken of her...

I've worked with Helen quite a few times now, most recently at a couple of charity events where I became the stylist along with the mua and the days were amazing... Full of fun and an electric atmosphere with Helen taking charge and lighting up the shoot with her personality.

I would never be able to recommend this girl highly enough. She is an exceptional model, is known by virtually everyone in the industry, and everyone loves to shoot Helen from Lands end to John O'Groats.... If you haven't shot with this amazing talent yet, don't miss out working with this fun loving amazing model.... You will never ever regret it.

Thank you Helen for letting me into your world time after time.... It's always an amazing pleasure to see you and have a mummy/daughter hug ... Hope to shoot with you again very soon...

I had a shoot with Helen at Spitfire studios on Sunday 2nd Aug , it was probably the best shoot I have ever had there were a lot of laughs and it was a very relaxed atmosphere.

Helen, thank you for a fantastic shoot and hope we are able to work together soon.

Spitfire Studio Swindon

Spitfire Studio hosted the charity studio day for Helen and Aerlise. In aid of a Bristol based cat charity - The Moggery - Helen organised a day shooting at the studio with local model Aerlise. This was very successful, and we would welcome Helen back for such events.

Helen is a regular visitor to Spitfire Studio, shooting with many different photographers there. Her versatility is frankly legendary, and we always enjoy seeing her at the studio.

Thoroughly recommended to experienced and beginners alike - Helen is very easy to work with, takes direction well and also can produce some stunning poses herself.

Henry Wills

I was fortunate enough to shoot with Helen and Aerlise together (and singly) on their charity studio day. Amazing to work with, Helen is a true professional and great fun to have on a shoot. This is not the first time I have worked with Helen, the first being several years ago. I would always welcome an opportunity though, she is an incredible character which shows in her images.

Orientalsnapper

My first shoot with Helen on Friday came up to more than my expectations, even though I meet Helen a few years ago at a shoot she organised. Great communications before the shoot a great array of clothing and accessories. Helen is unbelievable a real gem of a model, truly great personality, fantastic modelling abilities and loves Kate Bush. So we put some music on and had I think one of the best shoots I have ever done.

I had previously worked with Helen just over two years ago and I grabbed the opportunity to work with this beautiful, crazy but delightful model once again, spending a full day shooting with her.

What can I say that hasn't been said before, she is an absolute joy to work with, totally professional and completely bonkers with it.

A few words of caution if you are considering working with her, she ate every chocolate biscuit in the house, (well almost I did hide some), wouldn't start without a bacon butty and gallons of green tea whilst professing to be on a diet! Oh and she kept calling me dad for which she earned a suitable chastisement.

On a serious note I am now left with an almost impossible task of choosing images to edit from the very many keepers, a truly wonderful model.

Helen thanks for the experience and I look forward to the next time.
