References for Helen Diaz

That Helen Diaz is both beautiful and a talented model is self-evident.

What is less obvious is that she is a one woman entertainment factory – and mad as a hatter !!!

I know photo-shoots are all about creating images – and we did – but it would be disingenuous not to mention the fact that I also had a great time in the company of a really fun lady.

Ms Diaz is also the hottest witch I have ever had the pleasure of working with :-)

If you haven’t already booked a shoot with her – do so now – of your own free will – before she makes you….

Very highly recommended

I had a shoot with Helen the other day and she's so fab to be around. Comes to the shoot fully prepared, with loads of energy and madness (in a really good way was as I'm the same), and tons of enthusiasm.

Working with Helen was a total pleasure and I really got to know the person as well as the model (if that makes sense) which for me, is very important as then you get the true essence of the person come through in your work together.

Looking forward very much to working with Helen again in December - Highly recommend this lady and let's be honest, her work speaks for itself ;)

I had the pleasure of working with Helen during a poppy shoot organised by Tony Cooney. Helen was full of energy and really patient while I did her hair, nails and makeup keeping me entertained throughout! I unfortunately didn't get to stay during much of the shoot itself but her energy and skills to achieve each look was fantastic to watch. I would love to work with Helen again. Jackie.

I have been a little tardy with leaving my second reference for Helen but I hope to make amends by saying that our second shoot at the end of her recent MK tour was even better than our first. Helen effortlessly creates beautiful poses and together we captured some amazing images. A selection of these photos will be post processed to include in my Klimt and Mucha inspired art photography project. Helen is always full of energy and ideas and an absolute dream to work with. I highly recommend her to all levels of photographer as you will definitely achieve some beautiful images. As some studios and MUAs have already discovered, Helen can be relied upon to deliver amazing results - just make sure you keep the green tea flowing! Thanks Helen for a fabulous second shoot :-) and being a true friend

Shot with Helen for the first time last week, it certainly won't be the last.

Helen is superb. The energy and fun she brings to the shoot is fantastic and her ability as a model is reflected in the images she produces with what appears to be effortless ease. When of course she is working incredibly hard.

Helen came well prepared with a fabulous range of outfits. She listened patiently to what I was trying to achieve and then did every thing she could to guarantee we were successful. She fully contributed her ideas to the creative process, whilst also taking direction when asked.

Helen has a wonderful personality, not only is she full of fun she is warm and generous and a very good listener.

I've already booked a second shoot with Helen in December, highly recommended.

Thank you Helen

Helen trundled over to cambridge to work with me whilst on tour, this was our second shoot together and I had planned the day incase the weather was "inclement". Luckily the rain held off and we got to shoot a fashion set in a country park before returning to my home studio, and the warmth for the remaining time.

Helen arrived with bags full of dresses / accessories and enthusiasm. She is a very talented and creative model who improvises and flows with the theme of the shoot. I had a lovely and productive shoot with Helen and would certainly work with her again.

I had an excellent shoot with Helen at my home studio. She is a gorgeous and intelligent model with a beautiful figure and strong features who poses naturally and creatively. She understands immediately what is wanted and contributes her own ideas to ensure a successful shoot.

Shooting with Helen is an absolute pleasure. She is friendly, funny and chatty, but keenly focussed when the shooting starts with great self awareness and a constant flow of ideas. The time flies by all too quickly, but you end up with some wonderfully artistic and beautiful images.

I recommend Helen wholeheartedly and hope to work with her again before long.

Well where do I start?

First and foremost I would highly recommend Helen to any photographer, model, stylist and MUA who may be considering working with her. Beauty, professionalism and a great sense of humour, make her a model who you should definitely make time to work with.

Today was the first of two planned shoots that I have booked with Helen for this week, and after such a brilliant first shoot, I am now really looking forward to our second shoot at the end of the week.

To cut a very long story short, it's fair to say that today's shoot (or mutual therapy session :-) just kidding Helen) got off to a strange start but I can honestly say we had an enjoyable, creative and productive shoot. Helen poses effortlessly, striking one beautiful pose after another. She is fun to be around and our four hour shoot just flew by.

Thanks Helen and I look forward to our next shoot this Friday

PS: still have plenty of green tea and Nakd bars 😊

had a seriously awesome shoot with the totally talented, versatile and, above all, gorgeous Helen Diaz a few days ago.

Helen came very well prepared with loads of fabulous outfits (we only scratched the surface in our shoot). She poses like a good ‘un and I got some incredibly beautiful shots.

It was one of my more experimental shoots and Helen took to it straight away - Helen is brilliant to work with giving her all, despite all the unusual stuff I was trying out. She also has a wicked sense of humour - which I love :) All in all a very productive shoot :) :)

would I recommend Helen? ABSOLUTELY!!!!!

thank you so much Helen - bless you!!! :)

I had a half day Photoshoot with Helen at the Creativus Imago Photography Studio @ Hitchin, Hertfordshire. Pre shoot coms were great with regular updates.

We covered a few sets, background choices, wardrobe changes and with different lighting setups,

Helen is great fun to work with, easy going , and her posing was effortless with fluidity.

I did enjoy our shoot and her company, and at times her good CRAZINESS, which I blame it on her overdosing on GREEN Tea.

Thank you, Helen, for a very productive shoot

Had a great shoot with Helen. Pre shoot communication was excellent and she was super professional on the shoot. We covered so much in the hour we had. I would have her model for me any time. Super easy, amazing images and great fun. What more could you ask for

Whole day shoots with Helen are always a joy, and so it was when we met for our fifth day together at the end of October. She creates just the right atmosphere for the shoot from the moment she arrives and sustains it throughout the day. She seems to have unlimited energy, and left my home at 6.00 pm to drive all the way across England from East Kent to Bristol (and yes she sent an e-mail to tell me that she had arrived safely). I have read all the references others have left here, and agree that she is just about as good as it gets. True, other models my have fair hair, tattoos or false boobs, but what more could you wish for than a really friendly model with whom conversation never flags and whose warm personality and sense of humour shines throughout her work. Thank you, Helen. You were, as always, a delight to work with. I cannot wait for the next time. David Lewis

Diaz came to Kent again. This time she stayed and ate only rabbit food! Photographers wishing to keep her happy should provide gallons of green tea and then all shooting will be conducted happily. Hey thank you Helen for another great shoot and thank you for playing along with the creative concepts. It goes without saying that all photographers should try and shoot with H Diaz at some stage.

I had a last minute shoot with Helen today, its been 2 years since i had the opportunity. I had planned some outdoor work. HOwever, as usual our shoots aren t straightforward. The weather was not as promised so after an additional tour of Kent we did a quickie shoot in my hastily assembled home studio. As usual Helen is a total delight to be with and it is difficult to be serious as there is never a dull moment. Its a real compliment as it is so easy to relax and work with Helen. Looks stunning, immacualte in every way. Totally recommended.

I always think a second reference left for the same model by the same photographer speaks volumes. Helen is a quirky bird who makes me laugh, we can chat a bit too much but this adds to the pleasure of shooting Helen. She is spot on time wise, make up, communication and delivers amazing skills to get the image you want. Out last shoot ended in a pub so we did manage to get creative! All joking apart Helen is a top class professional and one of my favourite images I have taken was a classic studio shot of Helen.

I had the great pleasure of working with Helen for the first time yesterday. Helen was lovely to work with and real professional who needed very little instruction or guidance from me and I look forward to working with her again in the future when she is back in my area. Of course I highly recommend Helen.

Thanks for a lovely shoot

If you want a woman who won't keep her clothes on, is able to speak like she's hooked up to a helium machine, and always needs a piss for drinking too much green tea then book this one. I've had to put up with her for three years now, it's time for other people to have this amazing experience.

It'll certainly be one booking you won't forget in a very long time ;) She even arrives on time and sings! She always has me in fits of laughter, you probably won't come across a funnier person, ever!

Seriously though, book her, and pay, you won't regret it :D

I have worked with this amazing, talented young lady on numerous occasions and she never ceased to astound me. Her work ethic, experience and professionalism are second to none. She has always arrived on time and her pre shoot comms are superb.

On top of that she is really nice person and I have an awful lot of time for her. Safe to say that she comes unreservedly recommended.

If you have not worked with her, then you are truly missing out.

Thanks Helen x

Helen has so many positive reviews its hard to know what to write so not to sound like a broken record.

Suffice to say, after my shoot today I now face many hours in front of the computer all due to Helen's talent in front of the camera.

Helen is gorgeous and the camera revel's in taking her image, thats the first thing you realize on your first shoot with Helen. Then, as time fly's by, you recognize just how easy Helen is to work with. It's a great experience and I cannot recommend Helen enough to all photographers, regardless of your experience level. Go and shoot Helen Diaz for a first class experience.

Some while ago I agreed to help a friend and fellow photographer by giving a portrait lighting workshop at a night school he helps to run. To make it more beneficial I was also asked if I could arrange for a professional model to come along and my thoughts turned to PP as the best source for someone.

After a little bit of persuasion the lovely Helen Diaz agreed to come and assist with my workshop.

Helen arrived at exactly the right time with a suitcase full of dresses for the occasion. When we got started Helen admitted to being somewhat nervous about working in front of 17 unknown people of varying photographic ability. But, and this shows how great Helen is, within a very short time the ice had been broken and we all got along brilliantly. The plan was to set up 3 fairly simple arrangements to demonstrate basic lighting techniques. The workshop went extremely well as Helen experience in front of a camera was invaluable as Helen knew exactly what I wanted to put over and took up appropriate poses. All students were able to take pictures of the different lighting set ups with Helen working her socks off.

That everyone came away satisfied was really down to Helen, she is such a natural model and really put a great deal of effort into it by being very warm, bubbly and enthusiastic (and having a good laugh lots of the time) which helped the students feel equally comfortable as most had never worked with a professional model before.

If anyone intends to run a similar workshop and needs a model - look no further than Helen - she is a natural.

Thanks for your work.

John
