I recently had my first shoot with Huw at an amazing location which he choose. Huw was awesome to work with, the day flew by with epic shot after epic shot. The weather on the day was challenging with rain, sun and dappled light, sometimes all at once! but that was no problem as Huw has a great knowledge of lighting and brought along the best kit for working on location.

Huw was polite, kind and professional throughout our shoot with excellent pre communication before hand. He is incredibly easy to get along with and is full of ideas, as well as being open to my own. The day was a real team collaboration :)

I hope to work with this true gent again. Thank you for a wonderful day!

Highly recommended!!

This is an incredibly belated reference, which is a reflection on my recent neglect of admin and certainly not on the shoot. Far from just a shoot, my recent experience with Huw was more like a great day out. He hired my friend's awesome yoga studio for the day and used it to showcase his sister's beautiful yoga bags, with the help of myself and another lovely model. He took some awesome pictures and bought the most epic array of food for lunch. I don't think I've ever had such a feast on a shoot! Not only this, but he also very kindly gave me one of his sister's beauitufl and very unique bags. What a great andvery memorable shoot. Thank you Huw :)

I had my first shoot with Huw at my home and it was a blast from start to finish. He was friendly and witty and our sense of humour bounced off each other. He is very creative and has a good eye for photography, even after finishing a 10k run! Hopefully this wont be the last time we shoot, and next time we will defiantly need longer! I would recommend him to anyone, and very much looking forward to our next shoot. Thanks again.

I had a fantastic first shoot with Huw which I thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish!

Huw maintained excellent communication ahead of the shoot and arrived early on the day. Huw has an interesting and energetic personality and was very fun to work with. He also has a brilliantly witty sense of humour too and had me laughing between (and sometimes during!) shots. He is a dedicated photographer with a keen eye for detail and precision, taking great care to compose each shot perfectly. As a result, we captured some fantastic images which I am looking forward to seeing.

I would highly recommend shooting with Huw and hope to have chance to shoot with him again very soon.

Had my first shoot with Huw at a studio in Nottingham.

Pre comms and ideas were a plenty - with pre shoot ideas being discussed & plenty of ideas were flowing.

Huw is easy to work with & although new to model photography, he gave good direction & allowed the shoot to flow with input from both sides.

I fully recommend him to all & look forward to our next shoot :)

Absolutely recommend working with Huw! We did our second or third (..im loosing count!) shoot this week and I always have a great time shooting with him. He has a passion for photography and a real creative eye which makes him fun and easy to work with. Never a boring moment he is polite and friendly.. 100% recommend!

Huw is a really lovely man and I am so pleased he booked me at my house for a home shoot recently. Pre comms were exceptional, he arrived on time, and we hit it off straight away. I was very impressed with the lighting he brought with him, his external flash was so cool! He is very easy to talk to, very friendly and we got on really well. Throughout the shoot we tried different things and I had a great time working with him. He is a delight to work with, a gentleman, I felt comfortable in his company and I really hope we get the chance to work together again real soon. 100% highly recommended from me! Thanks Huw!

Second shoot in and many more I am sure! We decided to tackle SouthBank in all it's busy glory! Got some great head shots and was fun. Huw is a great guy to work with very much looking forward to our next shoot! Couldn't recommend Huw enough.

Fantastic

I had an incredible shoot with Huw at the beautiful boardroom derby the other day.

Pre communications were great, very prompt and we discussed ideas/outfits & themes before hand.

The studio was fantastic, great natural light and lovely owners/staff.

Huw was a delight to work with, very accommodating and eager to listen to and allow me to implement my ideas.

This lead to an exciting exhilarating shoot, he brought some fabulous props including; colourful fabrics, plenty of helium balloons, LED lights & a bubble machine (powered by my boyfriend tom) and we created some beautiful shapes and pictures.

I would definitely recommend Huw to any other models or creatives, he’s only been shooting models for a short time, but knows what he wants from the images and is great at giving direction, but letting you be creative.

I’ve seen some of the images and I love them, can’t wait too see the rest.

Thanks again huw, looking forward to working together in the future. Tom sends his love too xx

Brilliant first shoot, first shot came out perfectly with many more after!!

Huw was fantastic he traveled to shoot with me with pre coms being great and very polite. Huw was the perfect gentlemen and very professional.

Huw had fantastic ideas and was brilliant at executing them (with hopefully a little help from me) Looking forward to our next booked shoot with ideas from both sides following. I 100% recommend Huw he is fantastic. Highly recommend.

Wow what a fantastic first shoot together from my home :)

Pre comms were on point and to say we arranged the shoot fairly last minute, Huw arrived bang on time and with a smile, and it’s always so good to start the day off over coffees and a chat, however we must crack on and shoot more on the next shoot haha. Huw is clearly so down to earth and easy to get a long with, the time just flew by.

We worked through a few sets of lingerie, topless, bodyscapes, portraits, and art nude around both my bedrooms, I absolutely loved the portraits I saw and I can not wait to see the end results!

Super respectful, chilled, chatty, a Smiths fan, and a great photographer, what the hell more could I ask for! :)

Very, very easily and highly recommended by me and I can not wait for our next shoot, thank you for a fun day :D

Had my second fabulous shoot with Huw in my flat. A two hour booking quckly turned into 3 hours and he oroduced some gorgeous images, including loads of my little ginger kitten, one which is already featured on my port. Huw even gave me a lift to my friend's aferwards, which was really kind and helpful. We are already planning future shoots and I am definitely looking forward to the next one. Highly recommended!

What a fabulous photographer to work with! I certainly hope Huw is being met with great kindness by our little photographic community, as he’s certainly a gem to work with and comes highly recommended by me. Super creative, polite and not an ounce of level pushing to be seen. Huw is one to watch and for all the right reasons. I’m really pleased he answered my last minute casting for a slot on my day at The Boardroom in Derby. We worked seamlessly together and Huw certainly knows how to hold a good conversation (a must for me) I’m really impressed by the images I’m seeing appear on Huws page from our slot already and would certainly recommend him to both models pro and starting out.

I loved working with you Huw and feel free to drop me a line anytime you want.

Very highly recommended by me

I had a great shoot with Huw at Michael Lau's lovely studio. Huw was very understanding as I had gone down with a cold the day before the shoot. It was a fun and varried 3 hours shooting a range of images including some nudes, fashiony stuff and some commerical images show casing his sister's lovely yoga bags. Huw was very pleasant, kind and professional and I am looking forward to working with him gain very soon!

It's such a joy when a website like PP enables you to meet and work with new photographers.

Communication with you was spot on before and throughout the shoot, you arrived at my house on time, huge friendly smile, enough lighting equipment for what we needed, you were willing to learn and try new things, I felt totally at ease. The list could go on.

I'd work with you again without hesitation. Recommend to all xX
