I have worked with Chris on several occasions now as a fellow photographer. He is always easy-going, a pleasure to work with, and full of technical experience, and ideas and he is always willing to experiment and step outside the box.

He is respectful and considerate, particularly with models; continuously aware of their wants and needs.

Chris gets top marks from me and is highly recommended :)

I had the pleasure of shooting with Chris in a joint shoot with another photographer David. WE walked and explored the beauty that the Peak District had to offer early in the Spring and captured lots of beautiful images together. Thank you Chris, it was lovely to meet and work with you and I hope we get another chance in the near future :)

It was a pleasure shooting with Chris yesterday, everything went really well. Chris met with with a big smile and communication during the shoot was on spot as well.

Chris is obviously an experienced and talented photographer so it was very easy for him to spot a perfect shooting spot so we tried a big variety of different locations and themes for our shoot.

Though weather was dim Chris was brimming over with creative enthusiasm and was very eager to capture some amazing shots which he definitely did.

Chris is a joy to shoot with ,we had a lot of fun and laughter so time just flew away from us as this shoot went in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Overall I am very happy with our shoot and hope to have a chance to shoot with Chris again

Highly recommended,100%

I had the pleasure of working with Chris at some amazing locations. Chris was the perfect gentleman, he made sure I was comfortable at all times, even as far as helping me by carrying my bag and running over with my warm robe and a carpet tile to sit on inbetween shooting. He truly looked after my welfare through out the entire shoot. Chris is also a very talented photographer and captured some really really striking images, he kindly showed me the back of the camera frequently so I could see what we were capturing together and seeing them gave me even more of a boost. I found him to be creative, kind and all round great to work with. I hope I get the chance to work with him again and I'd certainly recommend him to work with.

An absolute pleasure to work with Chris again; this time at Studio Luminescence on their themed event.

During the event Chris was as always; very upbeat & chatty, he remains totally respectful of the model and other photographers at all times. He is an absolute star to work with!

It has been so lovely to watch Chris's confidence in his ability grow over the duration of our shoots together; especially to see him get more creative with his angles and composition! The back of the camera images I saw were absolutely fantastic :-)

Thanks again for a great time working together, hope to see you in the New Year!

Studio Luminescence

Chris is certainly a valued part of our little photographic community here at the studio and we enjoyed welcoming him again to another themed event with Katey Model.

His photography is going from strength to strength the more he does and experiments and we are proud to say we are part of his journey.

As always during these events Chris works well with the other attendees and the model to make the whole event a really lovely experience for all.

We can't wait to see what he achieved from this event as there were some setups that different for him!...

But as always we recommend him to models and studios.

He's lovely person, kind, respectful and professional.

Thanks again Chris and we look forward to seeing you in the future!

We again had the pleasure of welcoming Chris to our studio - this time for our Tulle Daydream event collaboration with Elle Baldwinson.

Chris's photography has continually improved and become more creative on each occasion we have had the pleasure of working with him. This event was no exception. It was incredibly rewarding to see Chris put the skills and knowledge he has built over the recent months into practice at our workshop.

As always, Chris interacted well with our model - giving direction and explaining what we wanted to achieve throughout his time at the studio. Chris is respectful, polite and talking with him feels like you're conversing with a friend of many years. We continue to recommend working with him and look forward to many more visit from him in the future.

Chris - we hope you got some great shots from the day, please come visit again soon!

Cheers,

Lauren and Gary

Chris has been to the studio many times now and on Friday attended a couple of hours of lighting tuition.

We can confidently say that Chris is invested in learning as much about the craft of both lighting and photography. He asks questions, he gets stuck in and ends up taking some really wonderful photographs in the process.

He's super respectful of the space and the models he works with and we won't hesitate in recommending him to other models and studios!

Fabulous to see you again Chris you are welcome back anytime!

Had my 1st shoot with Chris on Friday ,

pre shoot coms we’re excellent , chats on locations, styles flowed easily ,

we grabbed a coffee and ran over ideas for the day , Chris had checked out areas of interest to achieve the shots he had in his head ,

all in all I would highly recommend working with Chris , and look forward to working with him in the future , we’ve got a few ideas simmering away 😎

Doz

I work with Chris regularly and he is a pleasure to work with. He is reliable, punctual, and constant. His coms are precise, friendly, and professional. He is a gentleman with those he shoots, polite and attentive (Puts me to shame) His creative work leans toward being intimate and detailed and always always has the model's welfare in mind. I highly recommend both him and his work.

We shot with Peaches Du Jour and Chris both supported and led the shoot.

I will be working with Chris again and have no hesitation in recommending both him and his work.

Peaches Du Jour

I shot with Chris for the first time today, along with Doz in amongst the most beautiful bluebells!

What a fantastic shoot it was! Chris is super awesome to work with, very easy going and an absolute gent! The back of the camera shots I saw were just wonderful! I can't wait to see the images 😊 the time flew by and we even managed to get some sunshine!

I would 100% recommend working with Chris, and would like to work with you again 😊

Elodie Rose

Chris and Doz added a casting to shoot in their local bluebell woods. I’m such a lover of shooting in nature and I also have followed both Chris and Doz for a while and really admire their work. So it was a no brainer to apply.

Chris was a complete gentleman throughout which I really appreciated. He looked after me very well making sure I was always warm and happy. He supplied me with snacks and hot chocolate and carried my stuff most the day even if it made him struggle.

Our shoot was in keeping with fairytale and at one point I was given a stunning red Princess gown which made me feel very special. We managed some other outfit changes all with purpose and beauty. The images off the back of the camera look so beautiful I’m so excited to show you all what we created.

It goes without saying I’d recommend anyone to work with this great man and gifted photographer.

Thank you for a great day.

Studio Luminescence

Chris attended a workshop hosted at the studio with Katey model. His pre-comms where fabulous and deposits where paid promptly, he asked all the right questions, which is great!...

On the day we found Chris to be extremely friendly and a genuinely talented photographer. Chris has spent most of his time photographing outdoor or with natural light so wanted a little more help regarding studio lighting. He asked lots of questions, was keen to experiment and most importantly was keen to get the best results he could!...

Chris had worked with our model, Katey previously and it was lovely to see how he interacted with her...

The shots he managed to achieve on the day are beautiful and show that he has a natural talent for photography.

We would recommend him to other studios and models. He was kind and respectful towards the other attendees as well as the studio and kept the conversation flowing!...

Chris is definitely welcome back at the studio and we wish him all the best in the future!

Thank you for attending Chris!

Beth Kate

My final job before Christmas was a fabulous shoot co-organised by Chris and Doz. I have shot with them once before, earlier this year, but this time we had a whole day booked in and subsequently multiple locations to travel between! We worked our way through these locations, shooting a different style at each and having loads of fun and collaboration along the way! I had a great day and it was an honour to have this as my last shoot before Christmas, I was truly able to finish on a high. Chris is a fantastic photographer, but also such a lovely person and incredibly easy to work with. Himself and Doz work so well together and you can instantly tell how good their friendship is which is lovely to see and be a part of whilst also in a working environment. I highly recommend Chris and look forward to (hopefully) working with him again one day in the near future. Thank you Chris, I had a wonderful day and am loving the images!

Ellie Frances

During KM agency Lip and Liner event I had the pleasure of meeting and working with the talent that is Chris. I was immediately made to feel relaxed and I can hands down say I enjoyed our entire session. A key thing I like is his bravery to experiment with something new. I was only the second person he shot in the studio but he was determined to nail this genre of photography. Boy did he deliver! Throughout the shoot I was constantly shown what was taken which was a vital aspect to the shoot both for me to see what poses I haven’t done and to be at awe with his god given talent. Would definitely recommend Chris and hope I get an opportunity to work with him again in the near future.

Katey Model

I was booked by Chris to work with himself, another photographer and a beautiful E-Type Jaguar out in Leicestershire on location.

Pre-shoot communications were fantastic; Chris made sure I had every piece of information regarding styling, location, time, expectations etc. He was fantastic at communication before and during the shoot ensuring I was comfortable and happy throughout the entirety of our shoot.

Chris is a really talented photographer, he has a keen eye for getting the best angle for his shots. I was really happy with the images we shot on the day.

Chris was an absolute pleasure to work with, I would most definitely recommend him to any model.

Ria Rose Model

I shot with Chris in Wales for a day with two other photographers. Chris and another photographer picked me up in the morning and we travelled to Snowdonia, Chris was lovely and we had plenty of interesting conversations in the car and arrived in good time to start our shoot.

Chris was polite and thoughtful throughout the shoot, ensuring I was comfortable and safe whilst I was determined to scramble across rocks! His work is great, he takes the time to consider the image he wants with a great eye for interesting portraits and angles.

I'd be more than happy to recommend Chris, and to work with him again.

Thanks for a great day Chris!

Ivory Flame

I had a brilliant first shoot with Chris recently, who booked me together with another photographer Doz, mainly shooting in the stunning bluebell woods as well as some other outdoor locations.

Chris was a complete gentleman, very respectful, considerate, friendly and down to earth. He was honest from the get-go that he is still learning and encouraged my feedback and suggestions. Throughout the shoot he was very aware for my wellbeing, ensuring I was comfortable at all times, and organising re-fuel breaks.

The images I've seen so far are wonderful, and Chris has a great creative eye. I really enjoyed working with him, and would happily do so again :-)

Doz

I have now done several shoots with Chris and find him a pleasure to work with. He is reliable, punctual, and constant. His coms are precise, friendly, and professional. His work is intimate and detailed and always with the model's welfare in mind. I highly recommend both him and his work. We worked together photographing Beth Kate, which he organized; a demonstration of how it should be done.

I will be working with Chris again and have no hesitation in recommending both him and his work.
