I love working with Holly - she's a real anathema but always produces great results. Roll on the next shoot Holly - well done!

What a beautiful, beautiful day! Holly is a wonderful little creative faerie whom needs very little direction when it comes to looking amazing. She knows her angles, pulls off all poses perfectly and is amazing at keeping still for my expansion shots, whilst being proffessionally fluid the rest of the time.

She turned up on shoot looking like a rockstar, along with her mother Helen who is an absolute diamond and is eager to pitch in with hairflicks, dress adjustments and overall super helpful suggestions and ideas. She's also great with smokebombs too hehe!

The two were easy to get on with and I felt we had loads in common. They brought props galore and whilst me and Holly were shooting magic, Helen frolicked about looking amongst the shrubs for good shooting spots and reverted back to her hunter-gatherer ancestry by gathering up leaves, twigs and feathers for awesome concepts we created altogether.

Holly is amazing at makeup, creating an awesome crow inspired eyemask that looks positively epic in the shots! Her facial expressions are beautiful and she really does create a wonderful set of photographs. I cannot wait to edit and release our series to the world! LOVED our day :) Would definately team up together again :D x

So, after trying to sort out a date for a while Holly and mum, Helen, headed into the wilds of central London for a location, Spring fashion shoot. Holly's pre shoot communications were very good... timely, to the point and regular. This was a shoot that was never in danger of being a no show.

Sadly the weather was largely against us but Holly didn't complain once (she did seem awfully pleased when we stopped for a restorative hot chocolate though) and posed regardless, adjusting wardrobe to suit the changing conditions. Holly was very well prepared with regard to outfits and make-up and was ready to shoot almost upon arrival. She poses fluidly and with creativity and was easy to direct and work with.

I couldn't leave a reference without a word about Holly's mum... She was as much part of the shoot as Holly or I. If you have a chaperone aversion I'd suggest you book Holly and find out what a chaperone should be like. She was very helpful, useful and unobtrusive, oh, and great for a natter.

A very enjoyable afternoon with some strong resulting images (I'm looking forward to getting into the edits) and I can do no more than recommend Holly very highly. Book her... You'll be pleased you did and your portfolio will definitely thank you.

Great shoot with Holly today with Dee McLelland MUA. Holly put together two stunning looks.

Great at following my pedantic direction. Holly has striking looks and knows how to pose.

She's a delight to work with - nice and quiet :) Unlike her chatterbox mum, Helen, who just cant shut up.

LOL....only joking about Helen.....normally I don't do chaperones or parents....but Helen is funny, goes for coffee, was an integral part of the shoot (attending to styling) and likes my music...so she's welcome back at Chez Wallop any time :)

I enjoyed this shoot quite a lot and really look forward to working on the images. Thanks for coming, girls!

Highly recommended

I finally managed to work with Holly after waiting for the weather and diaries to line up at one of my bucket list locations.

She came through with flying colours and I got the shots I wanted, despite random tourists and a biting wind. I have the kind of problem I really appreciate: a lot of excellent shots to post process. I hope we can work together at another location later in the summer.

I have worked with Holly a few times and would again. Holly is a fantastic model to work with and versatile for numerous looks. Not only is it a fun time but I always get some great shots from the shoot.

This is the second time I have shot with Holly, and I['m sure she gets better every time. Holly really understands themes and what you are trying to achieve at a shoot, and she has some great ideas herself. She is prompt and committed to shoots, and is well supported by her family. I'm really pleased with the images we created together this time, and I hope I get chance to work with Holly again soon.

I've worked with Holly on a couple of occasions now. She's a quietly spoken girl who gives 110% to everything she does. Holly takes direction well and has a natural, relaxed style about her posing which is easy to work with and produces the goods time after time. There's also a killer smile hiding in there ...very easy to recommend.

I had an amazing shoot with Holly at an an amazing location found by her very enthusiastic family. Holly is just amazing and gets into a narrative pose very easily and can keep that look until its ready to move to the next shot. She deserves all the support she can get to visualise her ideas she has. Thoroughly enjoyed this shoot, one of the best I have been on yet!!! Thank you for choosing me to photograph your idea Holly!!!

Holly came along to a themed group shoot in Warwick.She worked very hard and took direction well, understood the "feel" needed for the theme and gave us an FPI. Thanks Holly ...

I worked with Holly on a group shoot in December last year. Although she didn't really know any of the rest of the crew she soon came out of her shell and I loved the expressions she was able to pull off at the drop of the hat. She was able to pose how I wanted with very little direction and I was very happy with the results.

By the end of the shoot we were already talking about working with her again on another project. I very much look forward to it.

I worked along with Holly on a group shoot today

I didn't really get to talk to her but got the pleasure of watching her work

She was very professional throughout the whole day and her outfit combination was fantastic!

Can't wait to see more of her work in the future!

Holly came to a group shoot I organized. Her communication with both myself and the make up artist was brilliant. Her costume was very well put together right down to the jewellery (which she made herself) and props. She worked with our photographer wonderfully and we got some lovely shots.

Highly recommended and looking forward to working with her again :)

Shot with Holly last weekend, she was a delight to shoot with, listened well and did everything I asked of her. Couldn't have asked for anyone easier to work with and so full of ideas! She was incredibly polite and put up with the cold and the wind without a word of complaint.

Definitely recommend working with Holly if you get the chance, you won't be disappointed with her work.

Holly was prompt in responding to pre-shoot communication, turned up for the shoot on time, and brought everything with her that we requested (even dying her hair blonde). During the shoot she was friendly and followed direction well and really understood what we were trying to create in the image. We look forward to working with you again, Holly.

I worked with Holly last year on a shoot. She was easy to work with and the shots came out very well. I would work with her again.
