my first shoot with Huw - went great! so easy to get along with, uplifting personality and easy to chat to. friendly and easy to get along with. pre comms 10/10 - showed me the images throughout which always helps me. I absolutely loved the photos - would love to shoot again. I highly recommend :) thank you so much!

Huw and me snuck into a local bar and subtly announced ourselves with my transparent top and Huw's big cam.

I admired his willingness to do whatever wherever and from the first shot we knew we were onto a good thing.

He's my kinda tog cause he doesn't have any rules and all the shots were mega top notch. Chilled as a penguin, making pictures as hot as your Mum's 70's mini skirts.

Obviously, I don't recommend him because he only shoots me now* :)

*that's not true.

Recommend to the highest degree

Rapture attended my first duo shoot in Bedford. We had a 2 hour slot and had a fantastic shoot!

When he first arrived, he was very friendly and I knew we would work well together! He arrived with lots of props and outfits, too many for us to decide from!

He was very good at directing us on how to pose, aswell as leaving us to it at other points.

We got some amazing photographers and I hope we can do a solo shoot sometime soon!

I've worked with Rapture a few times now and we always create some fabulous shots together! This time we focused on some countryside location Boho style sets, complete with hazy late summer sunshine and perfectly positioned hay bales :) Huw is always chatty, laid back and happy to collaborate with me on ideas. Have already seen some of the edits and they didn't dissapoint at all! Highly recommended

The last Sunday was my first time ever with Huw and what an amazing experience it was!

Huw is superb with communication- quick replies, clear information and everything taken care of.

Shooting itself was a blast; plenty of time for breaks and talks in between and working with Huw feels very comfortable and relaxing. He's incredibly careful about making sure his models feel safe and respected. He had a lot of wonderful ideas, but he always made sure I felt comfortable with them before continuing!

Huw is a blast to work with. A gentle, humorous person and incredibly respectful. I can't wait to work with him again- and thank you so much for this wonderful experience!

We had our first shoot and I can say I am in love with the sets we covered, and the results we got!

Shooting at his home - I felt very comfortable throughout the whole shoot, and I had a great time. He is very easy to talk to and get along with!

The amount of outfits and props there is available for the sets is just WOW! It's really very helpful as there's plenty of looks that can be planned and you can switch between outfits as the range is huge! Everyone will find something for themselves. also allowed me to save my own outfits for another time.

We covered different levels, from lingerie to nude, to erotic open leg.

He also kept offering drinks and snacks.

Definitely recommended! and hopefully shoot again! :)

Well where do I start?

I felt highly honoured when Huw reached out to arrange a shoot with me, his Portfolio is fantastic and his work with well known faces I couldn’t believe he wanted to include myself to his array of wonderful images/calibrations!

Right from the off we knew exactly what we wanted from the shoot, the pre communications were great and Huw has a fantastic collection of clothing/lingerie which we used alongside my own collection.

The day just flew by, I always find that this happens when working with a great photographer! He made me feel at ease and provided Drinks and snacks ( the best Brownies!) 😊

We have created some wonderful images and I cannot wait to see what we can create in the future ! We are already arranging another shoot! As we have so many ideas!

Thank you so much Huw!

See you soon

I had my first shoot with Huw yesterday.

Working with passionate and enthusiastic people is what I enjoy most about modelling, and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to shoot with!

He is down to earth, easy to get along with and an all round professional photographer and a wonderful gentleman too! He has a great eye for composition and details, and he isn't afraid to direct and correct poses as and when needed for a better shot, which I truly appreciate. Additionally, he most definitely is not afraid to try new things and step out of his comfort zone.

The pre-comms before shooting were great, about themes and ideas. We shot a range of styles in different locations including outdoors in an old church ruins for a moody theme and artistic nude and the time flew by and I could have shot all day with him :)

The images I have seen at the back of the camera have turned out absolutely amazing.. I cannot wait to see the end result! I would highly recommend working with Huw if you have not already! :)

Thanks for an amazing shoot.

Recently had the pleasure of shooting with Huw. The whole experience was brilliant. Huw has the perfect balance of humour, professionalism, and fun. The shoot was four hours long and it flew. We shot in a number of outdoor locations, that Huw knew well, and got creative along the way. His passion for photography is evident immediately and so his skill level. He has great ideas, a great eye for the backdrop and therefore the images have turned out beautifully.

Huw is reliable, organises everything perfectly and is motivated to achieve the best out of the shoot, not only for himself, but for the model also.

I am looking forward to our next planned shoot and hopefully many more.

Great to meet Huw on his first shoot here with the awesome AJ the model.

I found Huw to be instantly warm and friendly to converse with and after a quick tour allowed him to begin his shoot. Afterwards AJ seemed like she really enjoyed shooting with Huw. Studio spaces and facilities on offer were treated respectfully and I'm really looking forward to seeing what they managed to capture here.

Would be great to see Huw return and I'm happy to fully recommend to all! Thank you - Lee :-)

Huw and I had been planning on working together for months now and he was brilliant enough to drive down to my studio day which was more than a quick drive away for him!

He came prepared with a bag of bits and provided some great conversation whilst working together. Huw’s a talented photographer who knows his way around a camera and has an expert eye when it comes to lighting. All of this aside from his brilliant ideas and willingness to get stuck into creative, crazy and refreshingly unique takes on grief and tested ideas makes him a photographer I would happily work with again and 100% recommend

Well after a very long time of chats on Instagram and getting our diaries together, I finally got to work with Huw!

Thankfully we managed to dodge the rain and shot a range of fashion/topless images in a quiet part of Lincolnshire.

I could of chatted all day, we ended up finding out that it's a very small world with some crazy connections. Huw is respectful, no level pushing and let me pose freely. I really had an amazing shoot.

Thank you so much again Huw, and I really look forward to seeing the images and working on something new with you very soon.

Kind regards

I had another amazing shoot with Huw last month, arranged last minute as he was in my area, aww and what a delight it was not only to see him again and have a long over-due catch up, but also to create wonderful photos again - mostly magic on the beach in the most glorious light - we were blessed with the weather and good tides!

Working with Huw has always been effortless and nothing less than a complete joy - we chat about everything, giggle like idiots, (I'm sure he'd say speak for yourself, ha!) we're mega productive; mostly because he's a superb photographer, (delivers beautiful imagery time and time again) and super efficient. He's wonderful at directing and is always so happy for me to suggest styling.

Highly recommended.. it's always a pleasure!

What a day this was!! One I won’t be forgetting in a hurry!! A lovely day of shooting with Huw!! Start to finish was an absolute pleasure!!

Huw had very kindly sourced gold body paint and makeup prior to this shoot and my god it worked well!! He had even gone to the trouble of building a box for me to pose on, which should indicate how serious he takes his shoots and how much effort he makes for each individual shoot!!

A thoroughly good human, kind, caring, funny and a true talent I could work with over and over again!!

Thank you again Huw! Loved every minute of it!!

Basford Hurst Cottage Photography Location

Huw came back to Basford to shoot with the wonderful Nicola Adele, and, to also do some duo photography with Nicola and Miss C the studio owner.

Pre communication with Huw was fantastic and thorough. Huw is so easy to talk to and a real pleasure to have around. He is completely respectful of his model and looked after our location from start to finish.

Huw as always comes highly recommended from us at Basford Hurst Cottage and I really hope to see him again soon! Thanks Huw!!

Miss_C

Huw came to Basford to shoot with the gorgeous Nicola Adele and asked if I would join in for a couple of hours to do some duo work with Nicola, as well as create some images with our resident corn snake Noodle.

I always love working with Huw!! He brings so much energy and ideas to a shoot and he is a fabulous photographer!!

The back of the camera looked amazing and I received all the images within 24 hours of the shoot!! Just trying to pick some edits but there are sooo many good ones!! What is a girl to do!! Haha!

Thanks so much Huw!! Highly recommended!! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!!

The Apex Studio (Telford)

HUW came to Apex Studio to work with KatyB on her Model day.

He arrived on time & was fun to have at the studio. HUW has a great sense of humor & was easy to chat to.

He had lots of ideas for his shoot with Katy & the time just flew by.

He was respectful whilst working with his model & looked after any equipment he used at the studio.

HUW is welcome back & we look forward to seeing him again in the future

Recommended.

Yay!!!

Huw came to Apex studio for my studio day and boyyy am I glad he did! :D

Weve been wanting to find a time to work together for a while now and my studio day was a good chance to have a couple hours shooting and see if our styles worked together and we got along etc.

He arrived on time and his pre communications were spot on, as soon as he entered the studio the energy levels went up! He's a real character and has a killer sense of humour, which always helps me relax on a shoot.. i love a good chuckle! He was super easy to talk to and we had a chat about what typa things wed be shooting over the next 2 hours.

He arrived with a bag of clothes for me to wear for the shoot, and they were right up my street! He had some idea of what wed be going for, and even brought along a can of mist for some atmosphere (which is an idea im stealing! mwuhaha).

We started with natural light and some simple sorta poses to start with, and he was always happy to show me back of camera shots which is a huge help for me to see what hes seeing and adjust myself accordingly. He also gave compliments on my posing style/ability and pointed out what he liked about it, and again, this helps me know how to get the best images with him.. and a compliment goes far as confidence is a must in front of the camera.

I really like his style of work, and the next set we did on a backdrop with studio lights, and i adored the results of that and also the portraits near the end, the lighting was spot on and was creative. Its clear he has a passion for photography, and has learnt his gear and has a style.

I *highly* recommend working with Huw, he makes you feel comfortable, oozes creativity and my cheeks hurt i was laughing so much in those 2 hours! It was a blast.

Thanks so much Huw, i really hope we get to work together again in the near future,

KatyB

I have no words to describe the fabulous person Huw is! Our first photoshoot was really exciting, we went to different spots around Huw area in a field to catch that natural lovely light and we did some photos at his house/studio that I love the results and I always love the high key in photography is one of my favs and with this talented photographer of course it was an absolutely beautiful result!! I never meet someone who is so professional and talented but also such an amazing human being it is very hard to find, he is just 10/10 for me!! I am so happy with the results and already thinking 💭 about a 2nd photoshoot and I know for sure we will rock it! Huw is just one of those person you will want to work many times and be so happy about the images but also about meeting someone who is

a truly gentleman, fun, relax, and everything that is right!! I recommend him 110%!! Thank you for everything Huw!! Loveeee our pics!!!
