Another wonderful shoot with Ian, on this occasion we shot at Aura studio alongside Irida and Lenza. Shooting with 3 different models is no easy task and it says a lot about Ian's great organisation skills as he managed the whole process from start to finish with great ease and professionalism. Ian is a wonderful person, it was a rather cold day and we all faced some chilly conditions at the studio working to lingerie and art nude, so Ian made sure we all had adequate breaks to warm up and rest. We worked through various sets, using different props, which made the shoot an enjoyable experience and gave us a lot of variety. Really enjoyed this shoot and very much looking forward to seeing the final results, back of camera looked awesome. As always, highly recommended by me to all models and studios.

I had a second shoot with Ian last week at Aura studio. He organized a trio shoot with Irida, Valerie and myself :D so grateful for the chance to create with these two fantastic models!

Ian is super kind person with a warm personality. Communication is impeccable and working with him is a joy. He takes beautiful images and we worked very well as a team. Can’t wait to see more of the final pictures from the shoot!

I would love to work with Ian again and I recommend him 1000% to any other models and creatives.

Thank you so much Ian for an amazing shoot!

Ian inviteed me to shoot all together with Infinity Valerie, Lenza at AURA in Northampton and it was the most magical shoot ever.

Very happy to highly recommend to all of course!

Thank you for an amazing day full of creativity and fun!

Had such an awesome first shoot with Ian Oliver during my recent modelling Tour to London. At a location that I was providing for the Tour.

Prior to shooting pre-communication was fabulous and everything was super easy to plan and organise.

On the day of shooting Ian arrived promptly and was so lovely and friendly from the start. And we had a drink and a chat before starting. It was actually Ian’s birthday and I really appreciated him booking a shoot with me on his birthday during my Tour.

We shot downstairs in the front room and got lots of lovely shots by the sofa in my little black dress and some lovely lingerie shots by the white wall. We also shot upstairs in the bedroom area and shot lots of stunning lingerie shots which looked so tasteful. We also shot some really gorgeous implied/concealed nudes which were some of my favourites of the shoot, especially the natural light shots. Ian has published some on purple port already and I’m super pleased with the results so far!!

Ian really treats his models with respect and focuses of the well being of his models which is super kind and sweet of him. He also always presents models in such a tasteful light and his work is just class!

110% recommended! Would love to shoot with him again in the future.

I had my second shoot with Ian yesterday and I'm honestly still thrilled! WHAT A SHOOT!

Ian recommended me to shoot at Maan Studios, which only contributed to the outcome > an amazing place to get creative.

I cannot point out Ian's professionalism enough! What a talent when it comes to creating THE perfect images. Lighting and composition are spot on; on top he has the right feeling to make a shot look beautiful, bold or very arty. We both created stunning work this day and I was very happy to even challenge Ian a bit with quirky poses. Btw: Also this he mastered like doing it every day ;-)

What is left to say:

One of THE BEST photographers I ever had the pleasure to work with; and on top an OUTSTANDING WONDERFUL human being.

Thanks so much Ian for working with me!

HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended :-)

I had my first shoot with Ian at Fareham studio. we did 4 hours of shooting and the time flew by!

Ian is so lovely, easy to get on with, fun, and very professional. He made sure I was very comfortable and relaxed before we captured some really gorgeous images.

The communication before and during the shoot was great. Ian collected me from my home and dropped me back after the shoot was finished. We had so much fun trying out a combination of fashion and lingerie and took some really gorgeous shots. I’m so excited to see the rest of the final edits!😍

I absolutely give Ian my highest recommendation and l hope I get to work with him again in the very near future! Thank you for a fun shoot Ian!❤️

The Factory

Ian visited The Factory with Chiara last week and they were a delight to host. Friendly and full of energy and enthusiasm they treated myself and the studio with complete respect and turned out a few FPI contenders in the process. Brilliant.

MAAN Studios

It was our pleasure hosting Ian at the studio today who arrived with long time friend of the studio Chiara Elisabetta.

Ian was professional with a positive attitude and had great rapport with the model. He is a very creative photographer who as a bonus has a great sense of humour.

We very much look forward to hosting Ian again at the studio and would highly recommend him as a photographer to other models.

I've had the pleasure of meeting and working with Ian for the first time as part of a duo shoot with the amazing Valentina (Lenza). It was such a great experience and one I would gladly repeat.

From the get go Ian's communication was professional, polite and precise. Once I met Ian in person, I realised what a friendly and warm person he is, plus he is an avid cat lover like myself! Ian is very friendly, but professional, highly creative and skilled. Despite facing some minor issues with the space we were working in (it was smaller than advertised in photos), Ian made a great use of it and also listened to mine and Lenza's ideas regarding utilising different areas, which is always a big bonus when a photographer is happy for a model to take part in the creative process. Back of camera shots looked amazing, and I'm very impressed with the ones that have been published so far.

I can highly recommend Ian to all models and studios, and I hope we get to work together again. Thank you Ian.

I had a first shoot with Ian yesterday in London, together with the beautiful Infinity Valerie.

So grateful he approached Valerie and myself to organize this duo shoot. Pre communication was great, we managed to sort out everything in record times.

We shot in an Airbnb in London and despite the place looked slightly different than from the images, we made use of the space at the best we could.

Ian was professional all the way through, very thoughtful of models needs. We had 4 hours shoot with plenty of breaks in between to chat and discuss ideas. In a very relaxed atmosphere we created lots of beautiful images. I am very happy with the first edits and can’t wait to see what else is coming 😃🙌

Ian is a kind human being with such a positive spirit. A joy to work with, I definitely recommend him to any models and creatives.

I am very grateful for the shoot we had together and I am looking forward to working with him again in the near future.

Thank you Ian !!

Ian booked for a shoot in my home set-up and we had a lovely relaxed, productive session. Communication in planning was clear, succinct and easy going, swapping aims and styling ideas.

He was polite, positive, professional, and respectful of my space and home. Great to chat and review images as we went.

Ian ensured we had breaks, and didn't rush or pressure to squeeze too many ideas into our time... That allowed us to focus on getting really high-quality results from each set, and gave me extra brainspace for added inspirations to our work.

Thank you for making the journey to shoot again in person Ian :-)

Fareham Studio

Had the pleasure of meeting this gent for his first visit to the studio. Ian booked 4 hours with the lovely Maryna Sedin during her studio day. Ian is a really nice guy, easy to chat to, respectful to the studio and the model alike. We had plenty of chats as the session went on. Look forward to seeing Ian back in the studio. Highly recommend him to studios and models, an absolute pleasure.

It is always such a pleasure to shoot with Ian, he is just amazing and his dedication to photography is impressive as Ian always delivers his best. I was very happy when I found out I will shoot with Ian again, it was our actually 4th shoot and everything went amazing. This time we shot at Fareham studio and Ian was very kind helping me out to make this shoot happen and helped with logistics which is much appreciated. Pre-communication was on spot as always and we had such laugh and fun while shooting so time just flew away from us. Ian was brimming over with creative ideas and enthusiasm, making some helpful suggestions and clearly caring about my well being while shooting. It is obvious that Ian is a very talented,professional and creative photographer,and everyone on pp wound lucky to get a shoot with him. I think we got some terrific shots🤩🤩🤩

Thanks Ian, looking forward to shooting with you again

Highly recommended,100%

Wow, our 5th shoot!!

In my opinion this may have been one of my very favourites so far!

Like I have said in previous references, Ian is an absolute joy to work with and an incredibly kind soul. I always look forward to our shoots and it’s always full of wonderful chats, great shooting & beautiful results.

I feel like we shot such a range of good images on our last shoot together and the shoot flowed so naturally. Ian is open to ideas and suggestions, letting me pose away naturally.

Ian is a very talented photographer, I was blown away with so many of the results. I really look forward to seeing the finished images.

It truly is so refreshing to work with such a caring, understanding, respectful person. Thank you Ian for being so wonderful :-)

We are already brainstorming for our next one!

I had my first shoot with Ian at parkland studios. He arrived on time and we chatted for a while at the start which was nice and felt it put us both at ease. We worked well together, it was a 4 hour shoot but relaxed and he gave me plenty of breaks. The images look great! I highly recommend Ian and hope to work with him again in the future!

Ian is such a ray of sunshine and one of the loveliest photographers I’ve ever worked with! Ian kindly offered to step in when I had an unfortunate last minute cancellation.

It’s always a pleasure working with Ian and I thoroughly enjoy the shoot and images we produce each time. Above all I appreciate how kind, genuine and friendly Ian is whenever we shoot. We end up talking each others heads off just as much as we shoot!

Ian is a great photographer and creates some lovely images. Despite issues with road closures/accidents, Ian managed to get to me and we made the most of the time we had.

I truly appreciate him stepping in like he did and being such a wonderful soul to work with. Photographers like him are truly refreshing and I always come away feeling happy.

Another fantastic shoot, I can’t wait for our next shoot that is coming up soon!

Thanks again Ian :-)

I had the absolute pleasure shooting with Ian today.

What an amazing photographer and personality!

Ian showed up very punctual at my flat. In our pre communication we decided to work with especially the big windows and blinds; and just go with the flow and lighting conditions.

Time was flying and we covered many ideas from fashion to nude art. Ian has a wonderful eye for composition and knows exactly how to get the best result out of every shot; he nevertheless always leaves you a lot of space to come up with own ideas.

There is not a single moment you do not feel comfy shooting with Ian; he is such a gentleman. The pictures I already saw on the small camera screen are fantastic and I cannot wait to see the full outcome.

Thank you Ian for working with me.

Only one question left: Can I give an 11 out of 10 for a rating? 😉

Highly (!) recommended photographer

Elle Baldwinson

I had a lovely shoot with Ian last weekend at the beautiful little studio owned by the incredible Natasha J Bella.

It was so nice to catch up with Ian again after such a long time and see his incredible progression with photography,I absolutely love the image he has already posted from the day!

It is always a pleasure to work with someone who appreciates working with a model and values their opinions so much! Ian is so lovely and we always have a great chat whenever we shoot! Ian is always so supportive and a respectable person to work with. I had such fun on our little shoot and it flew by! I had a great time! I would definitely recommend shooting with Ian.
