Jade applied for a casting I made at Aura. I'm so glad she did.

Utterly professional- comms were spot on, she was on time with a gazillion outfits, ready to go quickly. We did all sorts - natural light, infinity cove, fashion, portraits. Jade is good at all of them! Clearly an experienced and wonderful model.

Lovely to spend time with too! Easy going, fun, chatty, the time just flew by.

Recommend without hesitation!

With a group of other photographers I met Jade on a Canon walkabout shoot around St Peter Port in Guernsey. With so many photographers Jade still managed to keep everyone getting the shots they were looking for, the sign of an experienced model which Jade certainly is. We moved to several locations which were very different and Jade was perfect for all of them. I think we all ended up with a great set of images thanks to Jade's helpful and friendly personality. I'm delighted to recommend Jade to other photographers.

Last month I joined another one of Alastair Currill's themed group shoots via remote tethering with the theme being 70s retro funk and the model being none oter than Jade. I have had several remote shoots with Jade previously, albeit not for a while, so it was great to have the chance to work with her again. During the evening we worked through a number of different lighting setups with Jade switching been several distinctive outfits, each with an awesome retro flair and incorporating a number of props throughout, including guitars, vintage records and a space hopper. As always Jade was able to pose effortlessly without direction and she absolutely nailed the funky retro vibe of the shoot. We produced some amazing images during the shoot and I am very happy with the results. She was as friendly and professional as always and I loved working with her again. I cannot recommend Jade highly enough.

I asked Jade to take part in a group shoot for my local camera club, following a successful similar shoot on a previous occasion. She arrived in good time with a selection of outfits, a constant smile and huge amounts of enthusiasm. Jade coped admirably with the group, whether the members were experienced and provided direction or were relative beginners with model shoots and allowed her to pose freely.

It was a very good evening and all the members were enthusiastic. Jade is a versatile and talented model, whether working 1-2-1 or in a group and is highly recommended.

I hope we can meet again soon.

Having been impressed by Jade at a camera club evening, I booked her for a location room shoot earlier this summer. The facilities there weren’t what I was expecting and I wouldn’t go back but Jade, ever the professional, took it in her stride and we had an enjoyable shoot. She’s a lovely friendly person, a pleasure to work with, attentive to precise direction and full of creative ideas to suit the location when posing freestyle. I recommend her highly and hope to work with her again.

I was notified of Jade Lyon’s Casting Call for shooting at the Wales and West Photography Show 2024.

Which intrigued me. So having enquired and decided to attend the show. I applied.

Her communications were excellent and she made the effort to get back to me and keep me informed in turn which was great.

Circumstances dictated I could only shoot for 1 hour. She graciously agreed and so booked.

The show itself was 25mins late starting but getting there was easy enough (once I realised I was on the wrong side and doubled back for the bus).

She met me In the auditorium of the ICC Wales (next to the Celtic Manor and it’s grounds) promptly at 1pm. Fortunately you could come and go as you please once e-ticket scanned in.

So as agreed Jade arrived in a caramel one piece suit in a lovely 1970’s vibe. I found her natural long wavy hair and her classical natural English look to be perfectly suiting.

We photographed around Celtic Manor itself, in the grounds near the Golf Course, building and pillars next to the Adventure Playground. The K6 Red Telephone Box and The Tree.

Jade has such a sparkle in her eyes, a brilliant smile and so full of life, even in front of the camera. Gave her all. Lovely posing and expression. Chatting away. Never met but it’s like we are old friends.

A lot of photography and excellent results in just 1 hour.

Given my present situation. I could have just attended the Wales and West Photography Show 2024 and saved my money. Saved even more by not going at all.

Having already committed myself in my mind and since Jade so graciously agreed to do 1 hour.

I am so glad I went through with it!

A chance to photograph a model I have been meaning to photograph. One more completed.

It makes all the difference to photograph a Professional. Professional Approach, Professional Results.

I completely recommend Jade Lyon Model and I am happy to note as I have found out now Photographer to anyone!

One of the best experiences photographing with results to match.

I even shot plenty of footage, mostly slow-motion. That and my Train and Deer filming I have now for YouTube.

Absolutely my highest recommendation!

Thank you for a Wonderful Shoot.

Mark.

I arranged a quick mimi shoot with Jade during the Wales and West Photography Show at the ICC Wales. Prior to the shoot she very helpfully scouted the grounds for suitable locations which meant that we were able to get a number of different looks in a short time.

Jade was extremely professional throughout, flowing smoothly between poses which made my job very easy. She was also good company, easy to get along with and interesting to talk to. We managed to get a high number of great shots in a very short space of time and I would certainly recommend Jade to any photographer.

I have worked with Jade a couple of times now and she is great to work with. Both sessions were training sessions I was doing for other photographers. She was friendly, patient and really helpful. We got some great results and would 100% recommend

Great to get a few shots in with the Jade again, at the Woodchester Mansion Leading Lines Event. As before, Jade is an amazing model and a pleasure to work with.

Just lovely. That how we would describe Jade. She is a wonderful model and person, so friendly to our photographers and full of her own creative flare! She is beautiful inside and out and we cant wait to work with her again.

She will bring so many good vibes to your shoot and have you coming home with wonderful images. Thanks Jade for a great day ay Woodchester Mansion.

This is the third shoot I've had with Jade and I hope to have many more. She is such fun to work with and yet superbly professional. She has a great sense of humour and is very easy to get on with. She always works to a really high standard. She is always enthusiastic to help shooters capture the image that's in their mind as well as having great ideas of her own. This was a group shoot where it would be easy for the models to get bored or fed up with all the shooters trying to get the same shot but her liveliness and sense of fun never waver. Highly recommended.

Another great shoot with Jade, a short but productive shoot where we experimented with natural light at her home and what magical results we got. Her home setup for remote shoots is absolutely fantastic :)

Jade is highly recommended and I hope we get to shoot again soon.

It was a gorgeous spring morning with a few hours to spare, all I needed now was a model. With a quick search on here, Jade had casting call which fitted all my requirements. A plan was made and we met next hour!

Jade was very understanding and worked with me well even when I took her down some very muddy paths!

We had a brilliant shoot, Jade worked her magic and would recommend her!

I am looking forward to working with her again soon, thank you for last minute shoot!

I had my first, but hopefully not my last, shoot with Jade yesterday during her tour to Scotland. The pre-shoot communications were fabulous, allowing us to generate a clear plan for a vintage-focused shoot. Jade brought a superb selection of outfits and accessories and had an excellent eye for how we could use the studio's sets.

Jade is easy to talk to and engage with during the shoot. She is excellent at contributing ideas and taking direction and suggestions on board. Jade's hair and make-up skills were great and complimented each look brilliantly, as did her expressions. The four-hour shoot passed quickly, which is a sign of a good shoot in my eyes.

I have no hesitation in recommending Jade and hope to work with her the next time she is in Scotland.

This was my second location shoot with Jade. We were blessed with perfect, but cold weather in the Forest that morning. Jade is a true professional and was super helpful, before, during and after the shoot. I have to also thank her partner Raj who did a brilliant job with the lighting on the day. I am delighted with the shots that we captured together, they are exactly what I was hoping for. I do hope to get another chance to work with her in the future. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I can't believe I've not left Jade a reference before!

I have had the pleasure of working with Jade a number of times over the years and she truly is a consummate professional in her work. Every single time I've shot with her she's been a joy to be around, a real ray of sunshine in the studio and on location.

Jade is a photographer, and understands what you are trying to achieve and will work with you on your concept in the most positive and inclusive way. She understands both the modelling aspect and the photographic challenge, so a real gem in that regard.

She can work with direction very well, and also can be left to pose as she thinks appropriate while you work on other aspects, so great to work with for both developing photographers and those with a clear artistic vision.

Would I recommend Jade? Hell yes....

Had a lovely outdoor fashion shoot with Jade today. It was a bit of a short notice one as she got the day free from having an event cancelled, but within a couple of messages we had a location, time and some outfit selections sorted.

Jade's info on the location was spot on, and I found it without any problems. Jade arrived before our planned start time so we had a chance to talk about outfits before heading in.

The weather initially was ok whilst we did some portraits around some flowers but typically it decided it wasn't going to play ball for the whole shoot. Luckily we found some sheltered areas to do some more fashion sets before heading to the long grass to do some golden hour images after the rain let up.

Jade is a great model, working with the odd bits of direction I added in when I wanted to tweak something not that it was needed much as she totally got what I was thinking around the sets.

I enjoyed shooting with Jade, it was a relaxed shoot where we had a few laughs and worked well together.

Had a shoot with Jade in early September 2023, we had to alter the location at late notice due to insane holiday traffic. But Jade’s time-keeping was perfect and we worked together to re-think the shoot at a very different location. It was a seamless transition. Jade had plenty of constructive ideas, she is very imaginative and she also has a very pleasant personality. The photographer’s job is made a lot simpler when you have a model of this calibre.
