Had my first shoot with Bear and had an amazing time! The studio is beautiful with an amazing set up and everything you could want. Some amazing props also and beautiful dressing room. Bear was professional, approachable, gave amazing direction and amazing energy! Overall an amazing shoot and so much fun the time flew by. Can't wait to work with the image squad again soon. Highly recommended!

I had a great first shoot last week with Bear. I was so very nervous but he made me feel at ease so was able to get some really great shots. The shoot has made me more confident and feel more relaxed. I did a second shoot yesterday which went really well. I hope my confidence has begun to show through. I have had an amazing experience on both occasions. Relaxed atmosphere, great facilities, lovely people and some great shots.

Thank you so much. I hope I get the opportunity to work with again

I had my first shoot with Bear today and what an awesome one it was to. He gave me a brief of Pris from Bladerunner in our pre shoot communications and I certainly wanted to give my all into bringing her to life with a hint of Kylie. Bear is very professional, knows exactly what he wants from a shoot and works hard in getting the set up right. The studio facilities are fantastic and all staff were really friendly. The time just whizzed by and from what I saw on the back of the camera, the images where fab. Thanks to Image Squad for such a friendly welcome and I would highly recommend working with Bear if you get the opportunity to. I look forward to working with you again.

Having worked with Bear on many occasions I cannot recommend him enough! The studio is immaculate with excellent facilities, all the staff are lovely and you are made to feel welcome from the minute you walk through the door. My first shoot with Bear, I was instantly put at ease, he wants to get from the shoot what you want out of it. 10/10 would recommend!

I shot here for the first time in October with Peter D Roach and we predominantly used the Window illusion light which creates a beautiful effect. We were able to get some really cool shots especially, with the sheer curtains to play around with.

There's so many possibilities at this studio, as you can see from their photos, it also has a lovely changing room to lay everything out and get ready in.

I met Bear, Carol and Gi Gi during my visit and they all were very professional and friendly and sat down to look through the photos after the shoot.

I would definitely recommend the studio and would shoot there again without hesitation. :)

I have worked with image squad studio on a number of shoots over the last couple of years and I have nothing but a positive experience and feedback for them, the attention to detail on getting this exactly how they are pictured and making myself feel completely comfortable infront of the camera. I 100% urge people to work with bear and the fantastic team at image squad studio the vast knowledge and experience would benefit anyone in the industry. Grasp the opportunity. Look forward to shooting with you again.

I had a shoot yesterday with Bear and Carol, and honestly, these guys are two of the nicest that I’ve met in the industry! They’re so welcoming, friendly, knowledgable, understanding and most importantly- GET YOU THE GREATEST IMAGES YOU COULD IMAGINE!

I absolutely loved my shoot there, I felt at home and there were no need for nerves as you feel like you’ve know them your whole life! They aren’t just photographers, they’re real people, they understand and take on board what you’re worried about and reassure you that we’re all the same!

I was so happy with the shoot and the images we created and captured. I can’t wait to see them properly :-)

Next shoot booked already!

Thank you for having me 😃

Excellent pre comms, encouraged questions. Gave me loads of suggestions and advice.

Excellent direction during the shoot and an eye for detail, which I needed as a novice. Put me in so many awesome poses I'm still feeling a bit stiff!

I can't wait to see the photos which I'm sure will live up to the quality of the rest of the shoot.

I can definitely recommend Bear and his team to any novice.

Although i have been to the studio recently i have not had the chance to work with Bear, but was lucky enough to work with him on a project this week.

I always love shooting with Bear as know the quality he will produce will be epic! Even more so we did a KISS shoot this time round.

As always he is a pleasure to work with and has over time become family.

Any new models looking to build up, get in touch with this studio, the quality of work you will recieve will be the best for your portfolio!!

Easy recommendation from me!

Had a great group shoot earlier this week with the wonderful Bear at armkandi. Bear is a great guy, and keeps the group shoots well organised , and ensures everything runs professionally throughout. If you get the opportunity to shoot at Armkandi, it's not to be missed.

Fantastic studio. Very clean with a professional setup. Models are well respected and given the upmost privacy whilst preparing.all enquiries were answered in a speedy and informative manor.

Was asked my Bear to shoot at the studio for a work shop that was being held.

Once again Bear and Carol were amazing. I just love this studio.

They have a pure passion to help others in the industry and it helps that they are amazing at what they do!

Again the studio was clean and they could not do enough to make sure I was comfortable and happy with the flow of the night.

Models and photographers get booked into this studio. You will not be dissapointed!!!

Had a little trip over to Armkandi studios last week to meet Bear and discuss some future projects, view the studio and do a little test shoot, to see whats what. Armkandi is situated in a great location, very easily accessible, less than 10 minutes on a bus from Wolverhampton town centre, and one of the better Wolverhampton studios. Armkandi are a creative team of individuals, full of ideas and can offer something a little different than the standard 'photoshoot', i was welcomed and made to feel completely at ease, Bear was chatty and friendly,yet maintained a professional demeanour throughout the shoot. Lots of future projects in the pipeline, so watch this space, highly recommended. x
