Had eagerly awaited this shoot with I4e for a long time after enjoying his port which has many beautiful images, I wished I too could create.

Pre comms with Paul flowed and our intention was to begin with film lit noir portraiture and finish with Shibari which we did with an impulsive hat and head wear set in between.

Paul is such a personable genuine man, a real gent and so easy to converse with, time passed by so easily and images created. Paul made my first experience with Shibari so easy and comfortable, I’m delighted with the images.

Thank you so much Paul

Had a location shoot with i4e. It was very windy, so quite tricky with my long hair :) However he used the wind to our advantage and directed me well. The images turned out absolutely amazing. I just love them. i4e is an absolute gentleman too and very easy to talk to. It would be an honour to work with him again. Thank you so much for the fantastic images. Highly recommended!

Shot with Paul earlier today and it was probably one of my most enjoyable shoots to date. Pre coms were great, the shoot was relaxed and fun & I felt very comfortable throughout the shoot.

Paul is very inspirational, not only as a photographer but in many aspects and it was a pleasure to meet him!

Would recommend Paul to anyone who gets the chance to work with him & wouldn't hesitate to shoot with him again in future.

Thanks for a fab shoot & look forward to seeing the results 🙂

I had a shoot with Paul today & from the very start communication was spot on, messaging to confirm details etc. I arrived at his house on time and he was very warm & welcoming, we hit it of from the minute I arrived.

The weather wasn't the best but this didn't stop us, we made it work, we went into the woods and Paul got some amazing shots, he has an amazing talent for photography and an eye for detail and caputured some beautiful moments on camera, both outside and also in the studio which followed on, he made me feel comfortable through out and we also laughed and chatted which I think always helps.

The day went without a hitch and I can't wait to see the final images. He is such a genuine, down to earth guy who I would highly recommended to anyone wanting something different or unusual to add to there portfolio. I hope to work with Paul again someday and I wouldn't hesitate in the slightest.. Don't even think about it people, just do it!!

I met i4E last year in the area of Cannes (France). We managed to organise a photo shoot with a model we both knew. That was fun. I showed them a nice river in the forest for the photo shoot location.

He is a good and experienced man. Always ready to give some tips about the lighting setup. And thanks to him he provided a helpful laundry dryer after I fell in the river.

Hope we can meet again

I recently did a Shibari shoot with Paul as a response to a casting call he put out.

Paul's pre-shoot communications were excellent and from initial contact online it felt like a collaboration as he asked me if there were any specific knots/ties I would like to do and asked for inspiration images. Very helpfully he arranged to pick me up from local tram stop and drive me to his nearby studio and back again which was much appreciated.

As the rigging took quite a bit of time there was time to talk and get to know a bit about Paul who has led a very interesting life working in the music industry and internationally as a top software engineer. He is a man of many talents and I would reccommend working with him.

Me and paul had a second shoot yesterday, and this time we did some Shibari rope experiementation.

Paul as usual was brilliant and got the images really quickly. He was really understanding that tying my hands behind me caused my shoulder to slip out and catch a nerve and untyed me quickly.

I had never done Shibari before and enjoyed my experience with the rope and would happily do a Shibari shoot again as now i know what my body can and can not do.

I look forward to seeing the images.

Just getting back into shooting and paul was excellent to work with. He gave me direction and advice and made me feel comfortable in each phase of shooting including my topless and implied nude, a pleasure to work with!

Paul is a fantastic host and photographer.

I arrived late, and was met with a warm and friendly smile that made me instantly relax after a stressful drive.

I shot with another model, who Paul arranged to join us, and she was an absolute pleasure.

We shot a human cello and cellist set that I cannot wait to see. Paul is a meticulous planner, creative, patient and thorough. However, he does not mess around, and we got the shots we wanted, and some extra off-the-cuff pics, in less than an hour.

I then visited Paul's lovely home and recording studio to begin to record some music together. This is another area in which Paul excels. He is a wonderful musician, producer and composer, and we have already arranged another date!

I cannot recommend Paul highly enough, and I hope that we continue to work together on both photos and music.

PAUL, YOU ARE JUST FABULOUS!

With the greatest respect and utter sincerity,

Miss Vivienne l'Amour
