Having worked with Holly before I knew that she was a model I could rely on and who was used to doing costume fittings. She’s always eager to learn about the basis for a project and took her role as Shakepeare’s Lucrece seriously, as it is a tragic and emotive poem.

She is always bright and bubbly and is a pleasure to work with. Her performance is enjoyable to watch- I was first drawn to her by her solemn Pre-Raphalite esk aura (which is much more suitable for costume work than commercial fashion modelling) and gorgeous fiery hair.

Holly knows how to work a garment to its potential and it was a joy to see my creations come to life on her!

I would definitely recommend her to designers and photographers alike!

Had a fantastic shoot with Holly. Not only she is a great model with lots of experience but she is also very knowledgeable about lighting and picture composition, which is always a bonus, especially for beginners.

I also found her a very intelligent person to speak to and exchange ideas with. It's easy to understand why she has got such a great reputation.

It was a delight working with her and I am very pleased with what we created.

Thank you very much Holly! :)

I had a wonderful shoot with Holly at Map Studios last week. As before, she was full of creative ideas and gets fully immersed in the shoot.

The results were as expected.....amazing. I cant wait to edit some more.

I cant recommend Holly enough. She is definitely one best :)

I've shot Ivory Flame a few times now and I always come away feeling something has been achieved other than just taking photos. She is a lovely person with a very gentle nature, she is creative and a highly skilled model who can bring out the best in any level of photographer.

This shoot was all film with a variety of cameras from a 1938 Bessa and Welti through to a Mamiya 645 and Nikon F4S. Some of the film used like the Washi P is experimental or prototype and I also shot my last roll of now discontinued Fuji Natura 1600. Ivory Flame was the perfect model for this type of session because she can adapt easily to the slow workflow.

I could not recommend a model more highly than Ivory Flame, she is suitable for any level of photographer from the most experienced to those just starting their journey in model photography.

My first shoot with Ivory Flame, and i regret I haven’t worked with her before. A really nice person, and a terrific model. After so many positive references, it’s hard to devise something original that hasn’t been said many times before, but its all true - she’s five-star ace whizzo as a model, i am so pleased with everything i shot today. Except that one accidental shutter press shot of the floor, that’s only average. Will undoubtedly work with her again if i get the chance. Sooner rather than later.

Ivory booked me as one of her models for the 'Electric Dreams' event she organised at the Hacienda. Blood, sweat and tears went into this event - all Ivorys hard work - when I turned up I was just so mesmerised. Completely honoured to have been asked and even that was enough to make me emotional but turning up and seeing how AMAZING everything looked was just another factor in itself. Seriously Electric - fluorescent lights everywhere, several set ups for shooting in each room, homely comforts for everyone there, tonnes of outfits from different designers and her own styling. Ivory even had mood boards for us to refer to, and the hair and make-up was incredible.

Genuinely most exciting workshop Ive ever worked on. Feel so lucky to be a part of it. Ivory - you are magic! Everything you did was perfection, down to the modelling yourself ofcourse.

Did I mention shes also a art director creative extroadinaire..??!!! Well Ivory is. She art directed many sets, all of our hair and makeup, directed every single day down to a T.

I could go on forever. Perfection. Thank you so much Ivory. Total babe. Highly highly recommended :-)

When Ivory announced that she was doing an event at The Hacienda around futuristic themes I booked on straight away I knew this was going to be something special. The day I was on was a great success with images captured, footage recorded, styling, makeup and sets. I was great to shoot with Ivory again after the first time during a redhead trio event last year. The day went by quickly, but it was packed with great creativity from Ivory and her event ideas and styles.

Amazing creative shoot with Ivory Flame at the Hacienda last weekend.

This was an 'Electric Dreams' styled/themed event and organised to perfection :-)

I shot with Holly and Amelia Rose and their contrasting styles suited the occasion well.

The make up, hair styling and costumes were terrific.

Holly as always modelled to perfection - her contribution to the creative process was huge and I have many delightful images from the shoot.

I can't recommend Holly or her creative events highly enough :-)

Holly arranged the epic Electric Dreams day at the hacienda which i attended for the full Sunday session.

Firstly i'd really like to thank Holly for her patience while we worked through a few shot styles i'd never done before. i really appreciated her encouragement and willingness to to experiment along with me, while at the same time ensuring i was getting good results. The images are definitely with the time.

Secondly the whole event was epic in every sense. The effort that went into the set design, wardrobe and assembling an awesome team of models, and stylists, really came off. the full day was a reasonable financial commitment, but i'd happily spend it again if Holly were to run another event.. just give me a little time to save up though :)

thankyou so much for such an epic day.. im still buzzing

Not much one can say about someone with such an awesome reputation. I have been lucky enough to shoot with Ivoryflame on a few occasions over they years, each time something different with one thing in common - great images.

This time it was her "Electric Dreams" shoot at the Hacienda in London. A well organized event in a great location. The sets were well thought out and complimented by great makeup and styling.

As usual without hesitation I would recommend Ivoryflame event/shoot

Thanks again x

Holly went to town on creating a themed event called Electric Dreams at the Hacienda in London, arranging models, sets, props, neon signs, old TVs! and makeup and hair stylist. It was a huge amount of fun shooting all day and a pleasure to work with Holly again.

Not only a fantastic model, she is also a great stylist, and her wealth of experience in making images means she knows what to look for, and is absolutely full of ideas. She cares about the results, and having a second pair of eyes to critique the shots as they come in, on-set is just wonderful.

As well as creating the sets, and modelling on the day, Holly ran the event, with seemingly boundless energy :) We made some fantastic images and everyone got out alive :)

Thanks for a great day Holly. A very skilled and talented model - highly recommended :)

Had a fabulous shoot at The Hacienda last month. Totally amazing studio shooting space, and the host, Sean, was very helpful and friendly. Can't wait to visit again sometime. The shoot was organised by Ivory Flame, who I have shot with a couple of times now. Her pre-comms were outstanding, and she had worked very hard on the Electric Dreams theme for the shoot. Arranged for stylists, mua's, etc who were all excellent. The other two models were Ryo Love and Tinkerbella. Wow! what can I say about these ladies - A great choice by Ivory Flame, they fitted the roles perfectly. All worked tirelessly throughout the day to deliver the shots I wanted, and we got some awesome results. A very fun day - Thank you all so much. Best wishes, Jann.

I booked a place on the fabulous Electric Dreams event organised by Holly and held at the Hacienda studio in London. The event was a great success and it was a huge pleasure working with Holly and Tinkerbella, as well as make-up artist Sophie. A real pleasure to work with a team of such creative and talented people.

Holly was of course magnificent as always, both as model, organiser and creative designer. Hugely recommended!

Ivory booked me for this incredible event she was organising, at the Hacienda Studios in London - a futuristic, neon extravaganza, reminiscent of Fifth Element, Blade runner styles, with so many amazing sets and scenes, designer outfits, mua, hairstylist, so much time and effort put into this weekend event. And what an mindblowingly awesome few days it was. Electric Dreams, four models over four days, countless amazing looks, super wonderful photographers, and the studio was the perfect place to host it.

It was my first time meeting Ivory, and immediately felt comfortable around her - not only the best host, she has an extraordinary modelling ability, so much variety, is the loveliest person to chat to, and is just such a lovely person. Can't thank you enough for all the effort that went in to this event, you made it such an exciting weekend! I would highly recommend Ivory to any photographer, model or MUA - you must work with this beauty! She's EPIC!

Thanks again my dear.

I worked with Holly recently as she was modelling for a fine art photography workshop at my studio. The experience was fabulous and yielded some beautiful photos. Holly is a true creative - amazing posing, imaginative wardrobe and total professionalism. We produced a range of images from low-key, fashion to fine art. Holly was exceptional with the workshop attendees, totally relaxed and a real pleasure to have here. She comes very highly recommended from me and I hope to work with her again very soon - thank you!

I had a great day with Holly @ English Photoworks.

Im always apprehensive when meeting new models as I have only a small amount of experience in working with professional Models.

My fears were soon put to rest when I met Holly she was calm and full of great ideas and was always engaging. I ended up with an amazing amount of new skills and needless to say a camera full of Amazing Shots.

Highly recommended

Thank you

Worked with Holly for the second time today this time at my studio. Holly is such a delight to work with. No need for any directing but is open to any idea you have regards to a shot you are looking for. on time with some great outfits to fit the theme we was shooting.

Highly recommended and will or course be working with Holly again.

Thank you Holly for today as you know it meant a lot to me. Regards Ken

Booked a last minute studio shoot, easiest shoot to arrange yet. Holly was great to shoot with, lots of good ideas, outfits and fabrics, and good ideas on how to get the best from each setup, highly recommend and hope to shoot again.

I had Ivory Flame on my photography bucket list for some time, and today was the day I finally got to work with her. And it was totally worth the wait. I had several themes on my mind I taylored for her look and boy, I was not disappointed. Holly has that ethereal look I was after, I couldn't wait to start shooting. We've spent several hours shooting, eating cake and coming up with ideas on top of those that I planned. Holly is a fantastic model, professional, easy to talk to, a real joy to work with. She knows how to pose and when I needed something special, she nailed it every time. We've got some real gems of photos and I can't wait to start editing them and share with you all. 1000% recommended. Thank you, Holly, it's been my pleasure meeting you and working with you. Till the next time :)

I love shooting with Ivory Flame. Although I have worked with some absolutely brilliant models in my time, the Flame is one of the best when it comes to that connection with the camera. She is so good at feeling the image and as I love this type of work its forever a joy working with her.

She is always very professional, friendly and easy to work with, communication beforehand was excellent. Her knowledge of what poses work best and angles with lighting is legendary.

I can't recommend Ivory Flame highly enough, it's always a fun and rewarding experience.
