A weekend workshop in the Scottish Highlands with Helen as one of a trio of models. The second time I’ve worked with Helen and both have been on PhotoClassics Art Nude in the Landscape workshop.

An awesome model, that gives her all, and often in challenging conditions. Nothing phased Helen - except the pre dawn starts.

A very different dynamic to the other models which allowed for some beautiful contrasts of style at the various locations. Helens ability to be ‘at one’ with the landscape allowed us all to capture some fantastic images.

I’d wholeheartedly recommend Helen to photographers who are looking to achieve some truly great images. I’ve promised myself that I’ll be working with Helen some time this year - hopefully sooner rather than later

I had the pleasure of working with Helen for the first time recently on the PhotoClassics Art Nude in the Landscape workshop in the Scottish Highlands.

Given the locations and the weather conditions this is not a workshop for the fainthearted but Helen was amazing and helped us all capture some amazing images. Totally recommended. Thank you Helen.

Helen was one of a trio of models on PhotoClassics Art Nude in the Landscape workshop in the Scottish Highlands.

It was the first time I worked with Helen and I'm really looking forward to working with her again.

The conditions where challenging and while us photographers protected ourselves with woolly hats and gloves, the models were exposed to the elements. It was freezing cold with rain, snow and sometimes strong wind.

Helen braved the elements and created some amazing figures by using the rocks as a natural prop.

I can highly recommend Helen, it was a pleasure to working with her.

I always look forward to my sessions with Helen. Apart from looking gorgeous she is great fun to spend time with and we have lots of laughs during our shoots. Totally professional in her modelling she has a host of different looks she can bring to a session. I have no hesitation in recommending her to other photographers. I look forward to our next shoot. Thank you, Helen.

I contacted this lovely chatty lady about a hi key nude photo shoot at the Old Bakery Studios.

She was very easy to work with and required very little direction from me. The plan was to take some nude hi key shots and if there was time to do some lingerie boudoir shots. The time flew by and I was able to achieve both aims. She was able to make some stunning body shapes.

Very professional and highly recommended, looking forward to working with her again.

At last I got my act together and fixed a shoot with Helen

Simply a fantastic model and working with her ensured that my shooting for 2017 ended on a real high :)

Helen is clearly highly talented, totally professional and very creative and just a lovely person to work with

I love our images and look forward to shooting with Helen again very soon :)

My last shoot of 2017 was with Helen and Katarina Marie Mannequin. These two work incredibly well together, bringing their own quirky ideas and wardrobes. A fantastic way to end my photographic year - both ladies very highly recommended together or singly if you're looking for intelligent, photogenic, quirky and fun models :)

(just hope they don't mind me cut&pasting the same reference for both of them ;) )

I first worked with Helen about 5 years ago. Don't know why it has taken me so long to meet up with her again but I'm glad I have. This time she was kind enough to let me into her home. Helen is not only an excellent model but also a very friendly young lady who can make you feel at ease which makes her a delight to be with. I don't intend to leave it another 5 years before meeting up again. Thanks Helen and I hope you have now warmed up!

Helen was recommended to me by another truly exceptional model, if she is reading this many many thanks for doing so, therefore my expectations were high and Helen met and beat my expectations.

Helen is an amazing model. Excellent pre-communications meant the shoot was planned and scheduled very easily and efficiently.

Helen messaged me as she was in the area earlier than she expected and asked if I wanted her to arrive early or if she should find a coffee shop and arrive at the scheduled time which was a very nice touch. Helen had everything required for the shoot as discussed down to a very last minute request to bring some headphones. She is truly exceptional to work with and the shoot was fantastic creating images I am very happy with. Helen is also a lovely person, she even offered to help move a table etc when it was required to make space or to be used in a shot. I highly recommend Helen Stephens and would definitely work with her again. Thank you for a fantastic shoot.

Although I have known Helen for some time time, this was only our second shoot. I booked Helen for a home shoot at her house in Southampton, together with another model (Rouge).

When I arrived she was prepared with make up done, all I had to do was tell her what outfit from a large array to ware. Helen worked well with the other model and could carry out my ideas for poses and different expressions so I obtained all the shots I wanted to.

The time just flew by and we managed to go though two sets of images. Helen also supplied several cups of tea and chocolate biscuits! The shoot was fun and productive.

It's a shame I left it so long!! I'd love to work with her again and would recommend to anyone.

I recently stayed at Helen's house for a week during a tour to her area. During this time we shot together with another photographer, Helen is a wonderful model and I always thoroughly enjoy working beside her. We also self shot some duo content which was so fun!

Helen was kind enough to let me photographer her too and can I just say she is SO amazing to capture in photos. She is beautiful, talented and a totally effortless model. A pleasure to shoot!

As well as being a fantastic model Helen is now a very dear friend of mine, she is a kind, considerate and wonderful person.

If you get the chance to meet and shoot Helen don't miss it!

Another big ol' YAY to Helen!

Me and Helen have worked together a few times now, mainly for video work, and we have established a great friendship and work partnership.

We arranged a London tour for 3 days and two nights in a hotel, we both worked our socks off equally to book us out fully, but with lots of photographers messing us around and cancelling.. it became quite the challenge!

The shoots we had together were great, we both really enjoyed them and got some great images back.

Helen is a great model and a very thoughtful woman, who I would never double think about working with.. we create gold together!

Thanks Helen for a lovely few days and sorting us the last minute booking after a last minute cancellation, it was great fun!

Thank you, can't wait to work together again!

I always look forward to shoots with Helen. Apart from looking gorgeous and being a brilliant model it's just nice to spend time with her. Our shoot this time was some video where Helen played various guests at a masked Ball. She went through various costumes and personalities in the characters she invented. So creative. I have no hesitation in recommending her to other photographers. She's great. I can't wait for our next shoot. Thank you Helen.

After a long gap we managed to fit in a second shoot in as many months. It was lovely to work with Helen again, even though it was only 90 minutes (the shoot was shared with Somersetman). I had planned a number of possibilities and Helen turned up with a few other interesting outfits so we easily filled the time. She is so easy to work with and has a real understanding of what it's like to be both sides of the lens. It was also great to have a pub meal at the end and catch up with news. Next year we will be a bit more organised and plan regular shoots. Meanwhile some great images to edit!

Somersetman

I love working with Helen! Only our third shoot together, yet it seems we've known each other much longer.

Helen is never fazed... however daft my ideas sound, she runs with them, develops them and often takes them even further than I'd hoped. Result: a shoot that flies by, and one happy photographer!

A talented and accomplished professional and an absolute joy to be with and to work with - book Helen and see your ideas come to life! Heartily recommended, and I look forward to many more shoots together.

This was a shoot with Helen and Keira Lavelle. They were both wonderful!

Helen is a thoughtful model, extremely pleasant to work with and excellent at understanding what I was trying to do at any stage and selecting an outfit and pose that suited what I wanted to achieve. As a result, the time I spent taking photographs flew by. As someone who studied photography at college, she understands light well and is great at empathising with the photographer. I could easily have spent the day photographing her.

She also provided tea - a nice touch.

Like so many photographers before, I thoroughly recommend her. A fine person and a fine model.

Two wonderful models making my life easy. Helen and Keira. Art nude in a pine forest and back at helens home.

Fun and rewarding. Keira was a tomboy before she became a girl. Tree climbing naked without any suggestion from me. Just gasps if horror from Helen who is used to keira’s madness and applaudits from me as I loved the rare opportunity to shoot a naked women in a tree. Watch out for the photos.

I had a fabulous shoot with Helen at her studio day at the excellent MAP Studios in Loughborough. She's a fantastically adaptable model with a range of different personae and a great sense of character. She also has a great imagination and brought loads of ideas to the shoot - and lots of extremely helpful suggestions about lighting - but was also very receptive to my ideas, which involved both bondage and gender fluidity. Time flew by and I wished I'd booked a longer slot with her - she's utterly professional, a delight to work with and I recommend her unreservedly.

Met Helen for the first time today at our shoot at Map Studios. Helen is a very natural and easy to work with model. She has experience on the other side of the camera and really knows how to get the best out of the light. I found Helen very easy to work with. Our shoot had a great flow and feel and I'm really looking forward to sitting down to edit the images we made. I certainly would not hesitate to work with her again and hope to do so soon.

Thank you, Helen.

I have just spent a whole week with Helen shooting in Spain and she is one of the most fantastic models to ever work with. An exceptionally easy going person with a beautiful personality that makes Helen one of the easiest models to shoot. She has ideas if you want them or she will take direction if required, nothing is too much trouble and we tried lots of different poses in multiple situations. We managed to get some truly incredible images, my only problem is deciding which are the best as there are so many. Helen was kind and thoughtful for the whole week and we got on so well, a truly lovely person to go on a photo holiday with who you should definitely shoot with, highly recommended. Thanks Helen.
