Wow, what a day!! I can honestly say that this was the most fun I have ever had on a shoot. Iris is such a sweetheart, she puts her heart and soul into a project and goes all out to create something wonderful....and weird all at the same time.

So creative and talented and so much fun to work with. She brought all the props, smoke bombs, and the wonderful Saffron who is also an absolute dreamboat. I am beyond excited to see what she creates for the finished edits, and absolutely can't wait to work with both her and Saffron again soon. Thank you for all the crazy, I loved every minute!

I had an absolutely amazing collaboration with iris ferret and the beautiful florence as a MUA.

When kari mentioned wanting to do something big and avant garde i already had an idea in mind for a sweet dusy pink candy floss look.

We ended up doing 2 looks a darker more evil queen sort of look as well as the candyfloss look.

Kari was more than happy to pick me up and take me to the location as well as take me home. She even provided some snacks for us to eat.

Kari is amazing. Climbing rocks laying on the ground and walking over slippery rocks in water and balancing to get those sweet shots.

She is just incredible and amazing to see in action.

Safe to say the day juat flew buy.

Even when it was raining she made sure myself and the model had shelter to continue applying the make up.

I 100% reccomend working with kari weather you're a model, MUA, stylist or any other creative. You will have an amazing joyfull day working with kari.

Not only will you have a wonderful experience working with her but you will also have some amazing images as a result.

Go book her now..

Wow! Where to begin!?

I couldn't believe my luck when Iris Ferret agreed to shoot with me! I had seen her work and was completely in awe of her magical creations. I had reached out to her asking for a shoot, and to my surprise, she enthusiastically jumped at the chance. I felt so honoured and excited that she agreed! Cue a happy dance here :)

The communication was perfect. She replied to my messages in great detail and we planned the shoot quite far in advance - so we were both hyped and prepared a long time before! I could see her personality shine through in her messages and I could already tell that it would be an incredibly fun shoot.

She picked me up and gave me a lift to the location, which I was very grateful for. I was immediately so comfortable in her company and it really did just feel like a fun day out with my friends! We had such a good laugh the whole time.

She had arranged the perfect MUA for the shoot (Saffron Evans). Whilst I was getting my makeup done, she was off location scouting and setting up our props/background.

I was so impressed to see that she had even made me a little changing area by hanging some blankets/material around some trees. It was very thoughtful, and extremely resourceful! I was very grateful to have an area with a bit more privacy to get changed! She really does think of everything :)

I have known photographers to get in some weird positions to get the angles, but not to the extent of Iris Ferret!!! She was not afraid to lie on the muddy ground, climb over rocks, and even use a ladder on uneven ground :o Her energy was contagious and it was hard not to catch her excitement, fun and laughter throughout the shoot.

She came so well equipped for the shoot - she had bought smoke bombs (which I was so excited to use!!!) and even a gorgeous swing which she hung on a tree branch and decorated with fabric and jewels. It was all so incredible and beautiful. I felt so privileged to be a part of the shoot and get to use these amazing props! It was better than I had ever imagined.

About halfway through the shoot, Iris treated us to a yummy picnic. She had provided a lovely selection of food and soft drinks. It had then started to rain so she let me and the MUA use her car as shelter whilst we finished the second makeup look.

Luckily the rain stopped in time for us to continue the shoot without much hassle, but Iris had backup plans and alternate locations ready if we did need to escape the unpredictable Welsh weather! Everything was so well thought out.

From the communication to the editing of the photos, I have been so so impressed with Iris Ferret's creativity and imagination. You can tell just from looking at her portfolio that her images just ooze originality, wacky concepts and quirky characters. Even after all her work already offers, she still really did exceed my expectations. The shoot and the images were better than I anticipated.

The images I've been sent so far are incredible! Absolutely breath-taking! I can't wait to see the rest.

It was well worth my journey from England to Wales and I will definitely be travelling back again and again just to shoot with her! A million percent recommend! Easily one of my ultimate favourite photographers!

After lots of planning and organising Iris and I did the second in our Element Series: Fire. What can I say? Iris was on point with every aspect! Her and Paul came prepared with a fire staff, fire spinning equipment, a lighter and lighter fluid. Unfortunately every garage was out of paraffin so we couldn't do the fire breathing but they improvised with what they did have and it turned out to be completely epic! Who needs fire breathing when you can set fire to water? Haha.

I loved every minute of this shoot and really can't wait for the next element! Iris is great fun and her and Paul make such a great team! They never fail to make me laugh and always come prepared. If I was closer to them we'd definitely be shooting more often!

Iris is a great character and Paul matches her personality.

Highly recommended!

Wow what to say she's completely spectacular! The back of the camera images were fantastic and i know that when she has worked her magic I'm most likely going to cry with joy deffianrly an amazing person with a talent that is unreal.

Her sense of humour keeps you giggling all the way through a joy and pleasure to work with herself and her partner both amazing.

Could not be more grateful and happy to of finally worked with these amazing people 💙 Thank you cant wait for round two happy to be a disgrace with you anyday! 🤝🏻

Got to work with this creative genius for the 5th time as a model a couple of days ago and what an epic shoot it was. This time it was a sea witch shoot inspired by ursula from the little mermaid.

It is always a pleasure working with kari and it's like catching up with an old friend every time we shoot.

She is the most enthusiastic creative photographer i have ever worked with. She is so passionate and dedicated. She litterally bends to all shapes and clibs rocks and ladders as well as laying down in sand and seaweed to get the shot she wants. She allows you to pose freely and gives amazing directions when needed.

I had a huge dress and kari was so helpful helping me move around in this giant gown and fluffing out all the layers to add that drama.

I had such an amazing day, and having received some edits already i am absolutely blown away with the outcome.

If you have yet to work with this incredible talanted photographer then you're certainly missing out on a great opportunity. She is what i would call one for the bucket list to work with.

I 100% reccomend working with kari.

Can not wait for the next creative adventure.

Little Wren

After a year in the making, I finally got to meet the legend that is Kari for a shoot in a fab part of the world known as Shopshire. I noticed how Kari had wanted to work with me and was blown away as her work is absolutely amazing.

Yesterday with a car boot full of ballgowns me and my assistant for the day, Mike aka The Hawk, headed over to Shropshire to meet Kari and her fab assistant Paul.

Working with Kari was working with a long lost friend and out ideas bounced off each other and she totally understood me and how I like to think outside the box.

I actually don’t think anybody else who have a chance to get a word in edgeways when we were in conversation and we both got easily distracted with new ideas that we had to try.

I can’t wait to see the images created and I’m still so flattered that Kari saw potential in me and I would absolutely more than 100% reccomend Kari to work with…..she’s the dogs…..

Thanks again for a fab day :)

I assisted my partner little wren on a photoshoot with Iris.

After loving her work for a long time it was an absolute pleasure to be meeting her in person at long last.

Iris is the most down to earth person you could ever meet, she has an awesome personality and felt like I had known her for ages

her work ethic and positivity shine through, she always strives to get the best possible shot, even if that means lying in the mud and dirt. As well as her own ideas she listens to what the model wants to and tries their ideas too.

She is as mad as a box of frogs...... but a lovable box of frogs lol

Her editing afterwards was top notch and the images where amazing

Would I recommend her to other models...... hell yeah, she is one in a million, get her booked

Thanks for a great day and I really hope to see you again in the future

I've been wanting to shoot with Kari for a while now (well over a year but the panorama got in the way) and boy o boy was it worth the wait!!!!!

Kari is an absolutely wonderful human with an explosive personality, she's easy to get a long with, immediately made me feel at ease and we hit it off instantly!!! she's incredibly talented, passionate creative and insanely down to earth.

We decided on a faerie shoot and it's wild to see what her mind can create on the spot and every single one i jumped at the chance to try! (I'm still absolutely covered in glitter and probably will be finding it for months but its so so worth it!!!) She's extremely caring and thoughtful too and always makes sure the shots she wants are safe first (the butt wiggles on the stool to dig the legs into the ground made me happy 😭😂)

I am absolutely buzzing to see what we've created together and i'm already looking forward to our next shoot and what we'll do in the future! I'm terrible with words but i absolutely could not recommend this lovely human enough she's an absolute angel and such a joy to work with!!!! Thank you so much for today it was a blast!!💖💖

Working with Iris has been on top of my list for a long time so she’s the first person I had the pleasure to work with after lockdown ended. Iris kindly offered to drive to my hotel in Bristol and pick me up so we can go to an outdoor location. She’s very kind and friendly and straight away I felt like I’ve known her for ages. She had really good ideas about poses and she brought loads of props that we put in good use. Since she is a model herself she gave me many great tips about poses. She is incredibly creative and she goes the extra mile to take that perfect shot. I can’t wait to work with her again and I highly recommend her.

Many months of exchanging messages, coming up with idea's and having lots of patience we finally got to do our long awaited shoot. With many factors beyond our control that delayed the shoot such as the covid pandemic it was worth the wait.

I had such a fantastic time with Iris and not even when the weather decide to rain or chilly winds wasn't enough to stop us creating some fantastic work.

She came along with some great props to bring our shoot to another level and wasn't afraid to be covered in dirt to capture those much needed shots.

She is such a lovely person, a great photographer that can go with the flow and has a natural talent for coming up with idea's instantly. I also like to give a shout-out to her partner also for helping with the shoots for being involved in some of the shots and also doing some behind the scenes photography.

I recommend Iris to anyone especially if you have a theme in mind. Check out her work and get in touch with her. You will have a great time and such a laugh.

I'm looking forward to working with Iris in the near future 🤙😀👍😎

Guns, smoke and fire!!!!

Second shoot - Wowzers!

Iris Ferret is, putting it simply, an awesome and creatvie photographer who is down to earth, very comfortable to be around, a proper good soul and a real pleasure to work with.

I love everything we've created together, and I can't wait to do more (I hope!!)

Urban.Witch

Well, what a shoot!

Great precomms and she picked a wicked location, personally I loved the little adventure we went on. Not afraid to get stuck in. Down to earth, warm, so easy to be around and shoot with, and with bundles of creative ideas on top.

I really, really enjoyed this shoot and cannot wait for the next!

After trying to shoot with each other for over a year, Kari and I finally managed to set up a shoot. I told her I had an element series planned and asked if she wanted to be involved and her enthusiasm made me realise I'd made the right choice.

Kari has an incredibly creative eye and such an amazing personality to match. She captured the air shoot perfectly with exactly what I had in mind and we had a fantastic time throughout the whole shoot. Her precomms were fantastic and her assistant was equally as fun to work with. They both compliment each other perfectly and are both kind and understanding people if you're having an off day (like I was) and they were a pleasure to work with.

I can't wait to make a start on the other projects with Kari to see what she comes up with. Her editing skills are as amazing as her imagination.

Highly recommended!!

I don't work alongside other photographers very often, mainly because of anxiety issues but also because I'm a grumpy sid

But working alongside Kari was an absolute pleasure - the day was relaxed, entertaining and creative.

Highly recommended to any and every creative heart

I had the most amazing time shooting with Iris. I'm new to modelling so I was quite nervous and a bit awkward but she made me feel really welcomed and comfortable. She brought me out of my shell and made me laugh. I would totally recommend working with this talented lady :D.

Cleostewart92

What a wonderful women to work with!! I had the pleasure of being able to work with iris again after far to long!

Her skills are far beyond what I've seen ☺️

We both got to see each other during a group mermaid shoot in Swansea on the Mumbles. What a splendid location that was.

Iris worked so hard climbing and laying in awkward places to get the desired shots.

I was able to become my dream fantasy creature on 2 occasions with this beauty of a women ❤️

First I was a fairy. (images were published in August 2020)

And the second was a mermaid. Still haven't chosen my favourite image for iris to play with yet😅 but asa they are done I will also submit them for publication too 😝😝

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Thank you so much for everything you beautiful creature ☺️ That I'm lucky to have as a friend 😘 xx
