Did my first shoot with Ian yesterday and got some lovely moody lighting shots. He has a fully equipped studio and directs you into the poses really fluidly. Impressed with Ian’s professionalism and looking forward to the photography event next week!

I recently met Ian at one of his studio workshops (held at his own studio)

He is a nice guy and was easy to get on with and explained the set up and settings clearly and simply. He was very sensitive and respectful to the models needs and comfort.

He was patient and helpful with the people who attended the group and was very welcoming to everyone. He actively encouraged everyone in the group to get involved and take thier own pictures, he was happy and willing to change lighting set ups if people wanted to try something a bit different.

His studio is well equipped and easy to find.

I'd highly recommend Ian as a photographer and as a tutor too. All in all a great guy and great studio.

Ian has become a good friend of mine over the years and I had the pleasure of 3 visits to his studio last year.. covering art nude and lighting workshops, and bodyscape being the most recent.

Ian is such a lovely character, and always a good laugh. Never ever a dull moment in his studio. Photographers always go away having learned a lot from him. I am always impressed with the images I receive back from the photographers who attended and even from those who are fairly new to it. Ian is easy to follow as he gives clear Instruction in his workshops which also are nicely paced out and structured.

Always a blast at Ian’s well equipped studio. Highly recommend

Cheers Ian, and hope to see you again real soon.

I had a great shoot with Ian, modelling for a fun wet and messy workshop at his studio. Pre comms were beyond fantastic and Ian is a polite, professional and wonderful man. Ian took me into consideration each step of the way throughout the whole day and prompted safety first. I look forward to working together again as well as seeing some of the fab images I saw from Ian and the togs who attended.

Highly recommended, Thankyou Ian

Ian contacted me in response to a casting call I made. Communication was really good and thorough, so I was made to feel comfortable and respected from the start. I had clear expectations of what I was required to do.

Ian is a lovely person and is very hospitable. I felt very content in the studio. Shoot direction and communication was good. He has good attention to detail. I had a lot of fun and came away happy.

Highly recommend

I had an absolutely brilliant first shoot with Ian. He welcomed me to the fabulous world of sploshing by contacting me for a multiple photographer shoot. That unfortunately didn’t exactly go to plan, but the lovely Rod said he would love to work with me one on one shoot at Ian’s studio.

Ian’s communications were second to none, constantly updating me on what was happening with regards to the shoot

Ian has a lovely studio which was lovely and warm on arrival. I’m excited for our future ventures together and I can’t wait to see how the images turn out.

You shouldn’t hesitate to work with Ian as he’s an absolutely lovely person to work with. Great supplier of cups of tea and nothing is too much. You’re happiness and comfort are his priority

I had the opportunity to work with Ian at his and Rick's Art Nude Workshop, and I must say; I'm so glad I did!

Ian was very welcoming and considerate of me as a model and his ideas for his workshop were very well thought out! It was a very enjoyable evening and I can't wait to be invited back!

I would 100% recommend Ian and his studio!

I recently worked with Ian for one of his photography workshops, and I would recommend to models and photographers. The event was very well run and informative for the photographers in attendance and Ian made sure I was comfortable throughout the evening and produced some great images too.

Modelled at another one of Ian’s studio days art nude level. As always very professional and prompt from the start. The studio is brilliant and the whole night was very organised . Hats off again for another successful night. I will look forward to meeting again sometime :)

Rhianna Grey

Yet another cracking day at Ians studio this time holding a studio day. Ian was on the ball and kindly helped out other photographers with any lighting or other technical issues when needs so that they left satisfied with their images.

Thanks again ian for being such a great help and for making it such a fabulous day.

Many thanks

It was fantastic to finally meet with Ian. After a few months of back-and-forth discussing unrelated WAM shoots he offered me a studio event to model for up to art nude levels.

Ian is friendly,professional and accommodating and obviously knows his stuff. I had a brilliant time and would work with him again at the drop of a hat!

Modelled for Ian on a wet and messy shoot at his studio. It was all very well organised (even with scripts) and prepared by Ian. We had great communication beforehand so we both knew exactly how the shoot would work. Ian was professional but so much fun at the same time throughout the whole day and I would certainly recommend him to everyone.

Thank you Ian

.......when can we do it again 👍👍

I had the pleasure of being booked by Ian for his model splash event at his studio.

What a brilliant and fun event this was. It was well attended and all the photographers were great to shoot with.

Thank you to Ian for running the event and for being a great host and photographer.

Highly recommended.

I had my second shoot with Ian tonight, modelling for a group workshop, covering types of single lighting for art nude.

Again, I had a great evening, and I would certainly recommend Ian to anyone looking for useful training/advice and creating some great images. Thanks again Ian!

TomRoberts

I attended Ian’s workshop at his studio covering a range of single lighting for art nude.

Ian was very professional and helpful, and gave me great insight and advice , the workshop was incredibly helpful especially for me as this was my first shoot. I'd be happy to attend his workshops again.
