Had a lovely first, and second, shoot with Ian, and his shooting partner Tony. I sometimes stay in Kent as I have family there, and that enabled this couple of photographic opportunities, which were very welcome to me as I have not been shooting so much lately while I've been caring for my mother after an accident, so it was very good for me, therapeutic, to get out and be creative again.

Prior to our shoot, Ian was very understanding about the occasional delays in my communications due to transatlantic flights. He helpfully provided a moodboard and also a link to directions to the village hall where he normally shoots, and he kindly enquired about my dietary preferences. On the actual shoots, he was extremely considerate, arranging for his shoot partner Tony to pick me up, and he provided a smorgasbord of vegan delights to sustain us through the shoot. He was always concerned that I did not stay too long in uncomfortable poses or kill my feet in painful pointework. In both shoots- the first one eas flour/ beach ballet, and the second studio art nude- Ian kindly showed me his photos as we went along, and I was impressed by the results of his creativity - he achieved lovely images with reflections and lighting in the second shoot, and dramatic smoke bomb effects in our beach shoot. He has also promptly already provided me with a dropbox link to the shoots- which is very speedy work indeed.

Highly Recommended, and I hope we will work together again.

Thank You, Ian.

Wow!! This shoot was a good one...I was on fire...literally!!!

This shoot was with Ian and his lovely friend Tony who both had some exciting new plans for the shoot and because I couldn't make the last one I was adamant to try all these new ideas! We shot with actual flames on my hand!! This took a few takes and I felt completely safe with Ian even when I set the bowl on fire! We moved on to other creative ideas too including me being covered in warm milk!

The shoot required alot of preparation and planning and both Ian and Tony did spectacular at making me feel at ease safe and happy!

All in all another successful shoot!

These guys are the best!!!! :)

I had a fantastic evening shoot with Ian and Tony at a stunning village hall. Pre-comms were excellent and he even sent me a Dropbox link to some reference images and ideas so I knew the themes of the shoot. When I arrived they had everything all organised and set up, the kettle was on for a cuppa, they had lots of yummy snacks laid out on the table, heaters were plugged in and there were loads of clothing, accessories and props laid out ready to use. They definitely know how to look after a model! Ian is respectful, polite and professional. We had a lovely relaxed and productive shoot and the photos I saw on the back of his camera looked amazing! We managed to fit in many different set-ups and styles in the time we had. Highly recommended by me!

Ian contacted me regarding a last minute cancellation shoot and I happily accepted. I love working with Ian and Tony. They are always enthusiastic and creative with their ideas. Not only do they make the shoot fun but they are hard working too. We created many sets within the shoot time and got a great set of images!!! I love working with Ian.. (and Tony!) Both respectful, nice gentlemen with a great sense of humour.

Highly highly recommended:)

Second shoot with Ian and what an amazing evening!

I can't get enough of his fun and creative ideas; I'd highly recommend working with Ian, trust me, you'll have such a fab time.

Jorja Thomas

Had an amazing time! Ian was very clear with his ideas and it was a lot of fun being able to bring them to life. By far one of the most interesting and unique shoots I’ve done to date. I felt comfortable the entire time and I had wonderful time, so I would highly recommend Ian if you’re looking for awesome shots, you won’t regret it 😊

Had a great time shooting with Ian and his friend Tony, Ian's pre shoot comms were great and very informative so I knew exactly what to bring with me and they both came prepared with lots of different equipment, outfits, props and food too which is always a bonus and the time honestly flew by!

Thanks to my sat nav I was a bit late arriving and therefore I was a bit flustered due to that but they both were very welcoming and put me at ease straight away which massively helped, and I do hope I was able to redeem myself. Love the images I have seen already, they both had very interesting a creative ideas and I would highly recommend working with Ian.

Thank you for a great shoot and I do hope we get the chance to work together again at some point.

This was my first time shooting with Ian, he contacted and the booking was made with ease and all the details for the shoot were sorted quickly. Ian was also joined by his photographer friend Tony who was also very lovely, professional and respectful like Ian was. Throughout the shoot I was made to feel comfortable, plenty of heat and drinks and snacks. Ian and Tony were very organised and knew the shots they were after and had clothing for them too! Very easy to work with, lots of laughs and the time flew by! Highly recommended and hope to work with them again!

I had the pleasure of shooting with Ian and Tony a couple of days ago at one of their local village halls. Pre-shoot communications were absolutely brilliant. I knew what ideas and themes they had and what to bring with me. It was very well planned and organised and the whole evening was a lot of fun! They came prepared with loads of equipment, props and outfits. Ian is professional, respectful and an overall joy to work with. They made sure I was warm throughout by making sure the plug-in heaters were nearby and provided drinks and snacks. We worked at a relaxed yet productive pace. Ian gave great direction but also allowed me to pose freely and give some ideas too. Ian is a brilliant photographer and the photos I saw from the back of the camera were amazing! Highly recommended by me and I really hope I have the pleasure of working with him again :)

Irida

I absolutely love shooting with Ian and Tony. This time another photographer was invited. This was my first shoot with the trio since having my baby and I literally loved every second. The ideas are fantastic and so much fun. I literally spend the whole shoot laughing. They all work so hard with lighting and outfits for the amazing shots created. I think the results speak for them self. :) I HIGHLY recommend Ian and look forward to more shoots in the future. True gentlemen so polite and made me feel instantly comfortable as always! :)

The shoot idea was brilliant and we were soo lucky with the weather. Sun was shining and wind was at a min. Perfect for a seaside town shoot! Lol. The shoot went so quickly and we managed to get some great images in front of the graffiti walls and with the waves behind too! Ian is a pleasure to work with. So considerate chatty and observant for new ideas. Highly recommended and will happily work with Ian and Tony again in the future :)
