This was my first time working with Huw and I thoroughly enjoyed it! We met up prior to the shoot to discuss ideas. He brought multiple bags of clothing and items for me to look through. He is well prepared! Such a friendly chatty person, We hit it off straight away.

On the day of the shoot he picked me up and we travelled to a beautiful location called Two Wei location house. We only did two sets but it was a nice chilled shoot (spent most of the time talking)

He is so easy to get along with, happy to give direction if needed. It was my 2nd time shooting topless but he made me feel at ease right away. Would 100% recommend him to anyone! Such a good photographer and genuine person. I even got to sample his cooking, that was amazing! An all round great day so thank you! Can't wait to work with him again :)

This shoot was a LONG time coming because of the pandemic and various other things, but we finally made it happen! Pre-comms were really good and detailed, me and Huw chatted a lot about ideas and possible locations and it got me so hyped up to create some magic :) we spent the day travelling down the coast, starting at Bacton and ending at one of my childhood favourites Yarmouth. Of course we enjoyed some chips and donuts to keep our energy up too haha we are already discussing ideas for many more shoots to come, I am very much looking forward to it as Huw is a fabulous photographer and so easy to chat to. Highly recommended.

I had a lovely time working with Huw, he is an extremely professional photographer and I would highly recommend working with him. I am also excited to print some of the photos he took for my portfolio, they are stunning.

Thanks again Huw.

How can you possibly start a reference to somebody when they exceed expectations? I have been in contact with Huw for a while now as we had both wanted to shoot with each other and had so many exciting ideas to work on, (and still so many we could have done) - so finally when we did choose the perfect place to shoot which was Two Wei Location House it couldn’t have been more perfect, The weather was beautiful and so was the atmosphere at the very start of the day and throughout.

We got on straight away and had so many creative sets to go through. With attention to detail from angles to lighting to camera settings - They were on point.

Huw knew what he was doing and we worked excellently together. I could go on with more praises but if you’re thinking of booking a shoot I would 100% recommend working with Huw. Thank you for making me love shooting again!

My second time shooting with Huw and I am beyond happy with the results. A genuinely nice guy who you can spend all day talking with if you wanted! He has a genuine passion for his photography which shows in the final images.

He came prepared with a bag full of clothing and let me choose what I was comfortable shooting in without any pressure, I had recently changed my levels and style and was open to me shooting something a little more relaxed.

He was also brilliant with my cats! Of which Matilda decided to be the star of some of the images :)

100% recommend Huw to everybody and can't wait to shoot with him again

Yet again, another wonderful shoot with Huw!

We shot in a field and managed to find some hay bales which worked so well!

Huw is so respectful, polite and professional and is always a joy to work with! It was a quick shoot today but even so, we got so many great photos which I cannot wait to see!

Im so excited for the next time we work together again. Thank you so much Huw!

Huw, lie the last time we shot together, was a joy to work with. He has great pre shoot communications which always makes the shoot soo much easier - establishing outfits and concepts ahead of time really helped us to maximise our shooting time. Huw came armed with (what seemed like!) and entire wardrobe and it was clear he'd put thought into what outfits he wanted to use in which areas of the apartment.

Upon arrival we had a bit of a catch up over a cuppa tea after admiring each others work over the last 2 years - so it was lovely to finally create more images together! Huw clearly knows his way around a camera, adjusting his settings with ease and yet he creates an air of such relaxation that I felt utterly at ease from the very first fire of the shutter. He's friendly and professional, yet totally approachable as well, which is always a plus as I felt totally comfortable throwing my ideas around as well!

I truly enjoyed our shoot and hope to work with him in the future! Thankyou for a fantastic shoot :)

Really adored working with Huw recently in Gloucester. He jumped on a last minute booking with me and Alicia Black , and wow , straight away he was chatty and bubbly and lots of fun. Unfortunately , an accident on journey delayed our shooting time and after such a long day i couldn't extend the time.

The time went super quick and it did feel slightly rushed , non fault to anyone and its a shame as i feel given the right amount of time , we could have got soooo much more . I hope he has the time to shoot with me again, as he was a good laugh and i bet hes such fun on the longer shoots!! fell like i missed out a bit !

Take care for now Huw and hopefully we cross paths again soon !

This is now my third time working with Huw and each time we shoot we just get better and better images together! We have a great working relationship and understand how each other works and have a mutual respect for one another.

Huw booked me for half day on location. He left finding a location up to me and this was a great opportunity for me to get to know locations in my home town as I usually travel to the photographers choice of location with me not being a driver.

I chose a beautiful park and we shot fashion and portraiture. It was a very hot day but Huw brought plenty of refreshments and snacks which is very thoughtful of him. Huw also brought with him an abundance of hats and different outfits which is always appreciated!

The time flew by at the park and Huw was keen to shoot at the moors. We made our way to Saddleworth moors, which is another location I suggested. However on our way there we discovered a much better location with more to offer such as great views, rocks for artistic nudes, and some wooded areas. Sadly, it was still a little bit more busy than we anticipated but despite this we adapted well and I felt safe knowing that Huw would warn me of any people walking past.

I think this location offered more than what Saddleworth would have and Huw was appreciative of my choice in location despite having not known the specific directions very well. We made a great team that day and got some of the best images we have taken!

Highly recommend!

I had first shoot with Huw at The Boardroom. Huw is awesome photographer who had some great ideas and had a suitcase full of different outfits for me to use. He made me feel so comfortable and was absolute laugh had a great selection of music to listen while we shooting. I highly recommend Huw to any model. I look forward to working him again soon.

I had a fabulous shoot with Huw, and the images really do portray this! I also can’t believe how quickly he’s getting round to editing everything, I can’t keep up 😊 (that’s a super good thing). This was our first shoot together and we shoot over half a day between a couple of locations and also my new home! Huw is so easy to get along with and not only a fab tog but also great in post processing! I truly can’t wait to get sharing our images on here and socials, I’m really proud of the work we have created together and I really hope to shoot with Huw again in the near future! Thank you!

Huw is a very pleasant photographer to work with. Clear pre comms, he put in a lot of detail to explain what he was looking for in the shoot, what to bring, how the day will look. I shared a few ideas of my own and he was happy to let me weigh in on what I wanted from the shoot too.

Huw is fun to work with and be around, as well as being respectful of levels during our shoot. I love that we we got lots of creative/original images, which is sometimes hard to achieve after 5 years of modelling in studios!

Huws hospitality does not got unnoticed ;) I was treated to multiple packs of sushi, crisps and even vanilla soya milk. Perfect.

Overall it was a well though out, relaxed and fun shoot. I can happily recommend him to any model.

Was so wonderful to shoot with Huw today again. Brilliant as usual, I feel so blessed we can do this all again!

I will keep this short and sweet, I just wanted to reiterate that Huw is incredible to work with. As much as I like a good challenge, I know that Huw is exactly the same and I feel that why it's so interesting working with him over and over.

Besides, he is really caring and pays attention to what I suggest, making sure we both getting what we want from the photos.

I definitely feel that there is so many more ideas we need to try and I cannot wait for the day when we work on them together.

Thank you so much for today

WONDERFUL as usual!

Had a lovely shoot with Huw in a beautiful yellow field (we agreed that we didn't like the name "rapeseed field" so have since named it "yellow field" haha.

We had a bit of a search trying to find the darn field but once we did, we created some beautiful pictures! He is so easy to work with and always makes me laugh (so it's difficult to pose and keep a straight face!)

I would always recommend him to ANYONE! He is an absolute delight.

Thank you so much Huw and I cannot wait to work with you again!

Had a second shoot today with Huw and it was wonderful! Couldn’t quite believe how long is had been since we last worked together! Huw is one of my favourite people to work with due to how lovely and genuine he really is.

Although we only had a brief shoot today,I still thoroughly enjoyed it! Huw is such a fabulous photographer and his work is always stunning! Huw also is so helpful with providing information to help me too with my career! We did so much chatting and it was lovely!

I cannot thank him enough for a wonderful day and I look forward to working together again soon.

Can I just say one thing - HUW IS BLOODY LOVELY! Yeah, immensely respectful, chatty, artistic, an excellent conversationalist, so comfortable to be around, and has THE best taste in vegan snacks. An absolute dude.

We shot a few days ago at the rather beautiful Anneseley ruin, on a slightly chilly day, but we broke out the smoke grenades, created some suitably witchy portraits, power posed in pvc and ridiculous heels, did some emotive nudes, ate a lot, chatted more, had a bloody beautiful time.

Would highly recommend Huw, he's just a wonder to work with, and can't wait to shoot with him again.

Until next time.

Excellent!!

My 2nd shoot with Huw and of course not the last (he is amazing!). We went for a boss girl kind of shoot and it went brilliantly. We have so many photos and I always have such a great time with him. He is so friendly, professional and I feel safe around him. We always have a good old laugh throughout the shoot.

Would definitely recommend Huw!

See you on the next shoot!
