Ian is accommodating and friendly which is exactly what I needed from him on my first ever studio event :-) I was immediately put at ease the instant I met him....

A complete gentleman with great communication, I would definitely recommend Ian to others.

His studio is lovely with a great selection of props.... Ian is enthusiastic with an eye for detail and is an absolute joy to work with.... Thanks Ian :-) LLx

Ian booked me for a artnude workshop, pre shoot communication was brilliant Ian kept me up to date with everything and when I arrived Ian was very welcoming he allowed me a private area for changing, makeup, hair etc..he made sure I was comfortable throughout the shoot, there was a heater in case I got chilly. Ian is a great photographer, he sure knows his lighting! he made me look fabulous at all times! Professional throughout the shoot, he even gave me dinner and lucozade! what more could a girl ask for? seriously though lovely guy and hope to work together again soon, all the best viv

It had been quite some time since I had last visited Ian's studio , so I was delighted to be asked by him to be the model for his Boudoir event .

Pre shoot communications were exactly as they should be, with all information as required .

Ian is lovely to work with, professional, knowledgable and easy to get on with .

Whilst the main aim was for his students to learn the art of this type of photography, I know he took some great images which I look forward to seeing .

Thank you for a great day and I hope we dont leave it as long until the next time :-)

Ian booked me for a group photography evening at his studio. I have worked at Ian's before and everything is always done to perfection and runs so smoothly as did this event. The photographers who attended were a lovely bunch and a MUA was present. The event was well thought out, exciting and a pleasure to model for. This event was very unique as we all had a input in choosing the concept which worked really well as 7 minds can juxtapose a variety of unusual and interesting ideas, therefore it was difficult to narrow it down to two. I can't wait to see some of the photos. Another great event hosted by a great photographer, highly recommended by me xx

Ian was excellent with communicating about the photography workshop he organised. He gave me freedom to style the shoot with my fascinators featured. He showed great enthusiasm for my ideas I brought to the shoot. Ians studio is a lovely place to work in and has a designated changing area. Ian had some fantastic ideas with lighting to make the shoot quite different and something valuable to add to my portfolio. I really enjoyed this workshop and felt so welcome and Ian is very knowledgeable, passionate and above all professional. he treated me with respect and ensured I had a great experience. I hope to work with Ian again. He is very creative. I highly recommend!

I had a great studio evening at Ians studio in Stockport. Ian is well organised and friendly. The evening as a whole was excellent and the shoot just flowed with lots of jokes and laugher. Ian is great with lighting set-up and provided knowledge and assistance to the other photographers on the evening.

Ian is highly recommended by me.

I modelled for Ian's "Less is More" Implied nude workshop - which I and the participants really enjoyed. Ian was well prepared both in terms of workshop content and studio set up etc, was personable and approachable and very professional at all times. He is also kind, he picked me up from the station, and was prepared to take me to the station late again that night despite having a quite severe migraine.

He also let me take the initiative a bit with promoting the event - which I appreciated -and was also open to suggestions with certain aspects of the workshop. I very much enjoyed working with him and felt at ease with him and the workshop participants at all times - Ian was able to manage the workshop well and the guys are quite a friendly and enthusiastic bunch actually :). I am very much looking forward to doing a future workshop with Ian and would not hesitate to highly recommend Ian to others.

Ian invited me to model at one of his studio work shop events and it was great. Ian is lovely and professional. Great facilities and very welcoming. His pre communications before the shoot we're superb and I look forward to working with Ian again.

Rhianna Grey

I worked with Ian on a small group which he organised at his studio. Ian kindly picked me up from the station, I instantly felt at ease with him and i throughout enjoyed our day shooting together. We exchanged a lot of ideas between us and came up with some good results on back of camera. I am looking forward to seeing the images and of course working with ian again sometime soon! He is very friendly, chatty and works hard to get the image just perfect. Thanks again Ian! I look forward to working with you again soon!

Take care

Just to say I had a fantastic shoot today at Ian's studio with several photographers. I was very impressed with the fact that although it was a group tuition shoot aimed to help both amateur or more advanced photographers! Ian kept it to a small dedicated group of 3 photographers, plus himself for advertising purposes etc, Ian was also 110% dedicated to not only helping the photographers achieve great images but he thoroughly run through in depth lighting techniques with each photographer (should they require it) plus familiarity with various camera settings etc! As a very experienced model having shot pretty much all around the globe it takes a lot to impress me lol , I can honestly say that today I had a fun very varied and exciting relaxed shoot. Highly recommend. I will no doubt be back there again soon :) Thanks to not just Ian but Jeff, Tristan and John for a great shoot. Rachel x

I had the pleasure of working with Ian at one of his studio based group shoots on Friday.

I was a brilliant experience, he really knows his stuff and made me feel very comfortable and welcomed.

The other photographer were all very friendly and I'm sure we got some great images. I will be working with him again in the future and would recommend other models and photographers to do the same :)

Had a fabulous shoot at Ians studio for a training session he had organised for some photographers. He was proffessional at all times and we had great comms before and during the shoot. He's very clear on his aims for the shoot so you have no doubts on what to bring and what genre to be expected to shoot on. I would be more than happy to provide references to other models and I am more than happy to work with Ian again in the future which is a good job as he already re-booked me for another date in dec! :) Thanks for a fab shoot Ian
