So as you maybe able to already see by previous references, I’ve worked with Howard on multiple occasions and each have been very special and unique in their own way but this one was something else. Howard previously contacted me about a trip away that he’d love to do and after much organising on his half and planning, changes made we finally were set to go. We were heading to Cornwall for 2 nights and three days. Howard’s attitude towards models is second to none, he puts our comfort and safety first. For example, my car is a little on the dodgy side so what does he do, hires me a beautiful car for our trip, he put me up in the most beautiful hotel and even especially booked a sea room for me so it was that extra special. He took me to some amazing places I had never been with some of the most beautiful scenery I’d ever seen and we got some amazing shots there and rather than just doing what he wanted, he kindly asked if there was anywhere I’d like to shoot. Together we picked outfits and each day we would head out to the most beautiful places and get some very memorable shots. Howard is the friendliest, loveliest, most kind hearted person I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with and I can honestly say I had the best time with a wonderful friend creating some beautiful art. This was a holiday, a trip away and not work. At no point at all did I feel as though I was working because Howard made sure that every moment was the most wonderful experience! It goes without saying that he comes whole heartedly recommended by me and I look forward to whatever adventures are next 😊

Another cracking shoot with Howard ☺️👌🏼

We had this trip planned for some time. The weather was up and down like a rollercoaster leading up to shoot day, and at one point we aren’t sure we’d get to shoot at all. But thankfully the universe had our back and we had some gorgeous light and dry spell to be able to visit the spot on the Moors that we wanted to. Wow! It was soooo beautiful! We worked the setting well and captured some absolutely stunning images! I’m so pleased that we got to do what we wanted! An all round success!

Howard is one of the nicest people I’ve had the pleasure of working with, he’s a great photographer and an absolute gentleman!

Thank you Howard for such a great day! Another shoot of ours that I will cherish!!

Very highly recommended from me

Another great shoot with Howard. This time a floaty dress shoot up on the edges of Dartmoor.

It was freezing cold and we had some walks to do but we had lots of fun and created the best possible images we could. Howard is a lovely photographer and very professional and I wish him all the best in the future ☺️

Had my first ever shoot with Howard and what an enjoyable shoot. He was set up ready to go on arrival, tea and biscuits at the ready and was friendly and approachable. we knew what we were going to be shooting from great pre comms before the shoot. I felt instantly at ease and we had fun throughout the shoot. i look forward to shooting with him again in the Autumn.

Always a pleasure never a chore when it comes to Howard! He is just an absolute joy through and through to work with. After many times shooting together he has become a friend and always someone I look forward to working with. This time we went to Heligan gardens with a group and the day was just fantastic. It isn’t working when it comes to Howard it’s always a day out and fun!

Thankyou for yet another belter of a shoot!

Today I had my second trip to the West Country with Howard, and another awesome adventure!

I had such a fab time on my first shoot with Howard, I was super excited to be going back to shoot again!! Howard lives in a beautiful part of the country and yet again we visited some absolutely stunning places creating beautiful images along the way.

Working with Howard is an absolute joy! He’s such a lovely guy and a great photographer.

Thank you Howard for another great adventure!!

Very highly recommended from me

Howard is undoubtedly one of the nicest photographers you could ever hope to work with. After working with him several times I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed in any way! Today was slightly different because not only was I working with him I was was working with his friend who he is kindly helping get into photography and she too was such a lovely person. I can’t rate Howard enough he truly looks after his models and is just a joy to be around and work with and always captures amazing shots! I am already looking forward to my next shoot with them both!

Thank you Howard and Magenta for an amazing shoot

Where do I start…… WOW! Just WOW!!

I have just got back from the most amazing time shooting down the West Country.

Howard contacted me about going down to visit. His comms have been second to none! From the first message Howard was detailed, professional and friendly all rolled into one. Having never met and travelling so far, this for me is so so important.

Howard met me when I arrived down there and we instantly got on. We got straight into talking about the shoot, the locations, ideas and inspiration. I felt like a little kid waiting to be let out into the playground! I was so excited!!

That evening we took advantage of the light and good weather and went to visit a river in the moors, lush greenery, massive rocks, flowing water, I mean you can imagine how stunning it was.

The next day we met at 6am and our adventure began! Howard came with snacks and refreshments for the day! We were ready!! This time we crossed into Cornwall and up in the moors, we visited an old engine house, it was covered in ivy and so stunning! At one point I had sheep Pooh stuck to my leg but I’d do it all over again today without hesitation! Haha! We finished off on the beach amongst some stunning rocks, a sandy beach, rock pools of water; it was simply magnificent!

Howard is a great photographer and he worked with the natural light superbly. When I was looking at the boc I was so pleased with what we captured!

Thank you Howard for such an amazing first shoot! Thank you for showing me some stunning parts of the country and sharing your memories along the way!

Very highly recommended from me

What a day!!! I’m not going to lie, it was testing to get there, caught in stand still traffic for 2 hours wasn’t the best of starts but oh my …. It was worth it! Howard was absolutely amazing with me arriving later than anticipated and totally understood and even offered me a coffee before starting (What a gent!) however I was raring to go and excited for the shoot. It was epic! I had such a wonderful time and all the pre stress just disappeared. Howard always picks the most amazing locations and puts so much thought into his shoots by scouting the area first so the shoot itself just flows. Whilst shooting it was lovely to just be chatting and enjoying the location at the same time. I absolutely loved my shoot with Howard, we got some amazing shots and had an absolute blast doing so. I can not recommend Howard highly enough he really is an absolute joy to model for, professional, courteous, respectful and fun. If only every shoot could be that lovely! I already look forward to the next!

Thank you Howard for a truly wonderful afternoon, it was just what the doctor ordered! 🙌

Wonderful first shoot with Howard!

Weather conditions weren’t ideal but that didn’t haunt the plans of creativity.

Great communication and ideas from the get go, along with a being a delight and wonderful person to be around it’s a pleasure to work with Howard!

Yet another glorious shoot with the very lovely Howard! Due to previously working with him and knowing him from networking events I already knew it was going to be a gooden but I was wowed!! The locations he had pre arranged to take me too was out of this world, absolutely stunning and at no time did this shoot ever feel like work and it’s because of days like these with fab company and stunning locations why I feel I have the best job in the world. Howard is a true gent, very respectful to the model ensuring I was watered and comfortable at all times and a general joy to shoot with. I had such a wonderful time modelling for Howard and very much looking forward to the next. 100% recommended by me and thank you for a wonderful day 😊

It was really lovely to be working with Howard again this year.

We went to a great location on Bodmin with old mine buildings and a stunning view on a very warm sunny day. We had a relaxed and enjoyable day and as always Howard has taken some wonderful pictures!

I would highly recommend Howard and look forward to seeing him again very soon.

Howard was lots of fun to work with, he had amazing enthusiasm and creativity! He clearly loves his work and it really comes through in the quality of his pictures.

He is also a polite, lovely and genuine guy who I would be more than happy to work with again. If you get the chance to work with him go for it!!!!!

I really look forward to working with him again soon.

This was my third shoot with Howard and he was just as friendly and as easy to work with as the previous times! Howard is extremely good with feedback and has some fantastic ideas about how to set up the perfect shot. He is extremely accommodating and makes you feel instantly comfortable! Highly recommended, and hope to work with him again soon. :-)

It was a real pleasure to have a further photo shoot with Howard earlier this week. We visited Bodmin and a stunning beach location in Cornwall. Howard has taken some wonderful pictures and I'm looking forward to adding the images to my portfolio. Howard is always so enthusiastic about his photography and Kevin and I really enjoy spending time with him. Looking forward to arranging another shoot very soon.

Thank you Howard! x

I applied for a shoot with Howard and another photographer and was happy with communications and all the plans made before the shoot.

I was happy overall with how the shoot went and it's so nice to meet new photographers who are passionate about learning and creating.

Howard is lovely and likes to walk a mile or two to get that perfect spot for an image, highly recommend but please wear sensible shoes!!

Working together again soon I hope!
