My second time shooting with the awesomeness, that is Jade Lyon! Admittedly the first time we shot together, I was just sitting in on a shoot she was having with John (Orpentor), but he kindly let me have some of his shoot time with her.

The couple hours we had flew by, but we managed to get a couple sets done in the Box, which I think Jade enjoyed if the laughter was any indicator! We also did a set in the regular studio too, all of which looked great in the camera. Straight after the shoot I drove up to spend the BH weekend with family, and so haven't looked at anything on my computer yet, but there are some models you are lucky enough to work with, that you know the results are just going to be quality, and Jade of course is one such model!

If you've never worked with Jade before and are just skimming recent references to try and decide whether to work with her or not... as well as being an absolute pro when it comes to modelling, she's also an accomplished photographer who knows her way around a studio - so absolutely perfect for those togs out there who are still getting to grips with lighting setups. Couple all this expert skill and knowledge with a truly wonderful demeanour, and you have all the ingredients needed for a great photoshoot..

Thoroughly recommended - worth every penny!

Jade responded to me on a very short notice for a shoot, and with just a basic ideas of doing some portrait and lingerie style shoot. As per the other references Jade is extremely professional and easy to get along we had a very light hearted shoot and the 2 hours flew by working through several outfits and genres of shoots. Thanks again Jade for the shoot and will be arranging a future shoot soon. Andy

So I've shot with Jade quite a bit now, since she moved to Northampton she's been my go to model for whenever I decide to book a session at Saracen House.

Why is Jade great? Professional attitude, punctual, you know when you book Jade you've going to get a model who will deliver and that won't let you down.

So I'm one of these photographers who I barely talks during shoots, I used to be super talkative but times change. After sharing a mood board and discussing the style of lighting and mood I was literally able to focus on getting the images I wanted and she just did her thing, providing different poses, keeping within the light and also keeping a check on the hair/makeup and styling.

Most of my shoots I tend to keep it quite simply and just have the model without a designer, stylist etc. I prefer the more simple approach but it does mean you have to keep an eye on for the details, hair, making sure the outfit looks good. Jade obviously has a tonne of experience, as a photographer herself she knows what makes a good picture and will make sure the poses suit the mood and if she has any good ideas she will share them.

Oh yeah, did I mention she's super pretty too. Honestly, she is such a fun model to shoot, there is plenty of banter if you like a chatty model and she has a super varied wardrobe.

Honestly, she is amazing. I rarely shoot but when I do I know if I book Jade I can be more quirky and creative as she can model without any help and I have 100% confidence in her being able to deliver.

A lovely shoot with Jade. It had to be deferred because of my positive COVID test and she was very understanding. Once the shoot started, Jade was very patient while I had some lighting training and then made some very useful suggestions as the afternoon went on.

Jade helped make the afternoon a very enjoyable four hours.

With nearly 400 references already, there is not much I can say about the wonderful Jade that has not already been said. She is both lovely and professional at the same time.

She has naturally beautiful features. Her modelling skills are second to none. My shoot was a little unusual. I wanted to take pictures for some yet-to-be-decided art. It made it very difficult for her to know what I was asking for and must have been quite out of her comfort zone. I was thrilled at how well she managed to convert my vague instructions into a comprehensive and precise set of images.

Perpahs the best compliment I can give her is that I wanted to upload a few pictures to PurplePort. It was almost impossible to decide which photo was better than the last.

Jade is very versatile and amazingly accommodating. I could not recommend her highly enough.

Shot with Jade for the first time at J9 yesterday.

She arrived early and brought along some perfect clothes for our "film noir" shoot. Jade was very professional, but also easy going and a joy to work with. (She is also very knowledgeable about photography, which was handy! :o) ) I'm looking forward to working with her again soon.

Highly recommended.

Recently I had my second remote shoot (third shoot overall) with Jade, having previously shot with her remotely at the start of last year and in person while she was up near me in North Wales during last summer. As with my previous experiences of working with her, I have nothing but praise for Jade. All our communications were flawless, with us thoroughly discussing my ideas for the shoot beforehand and she was well prepared at the start of the shoot with the outfits I requested and some additional fantastic choices of her own that perfectly suited my ideas (as well as a couple of stunning ideas she brought to the table) and some beautiful setups ready to go. Her posing was excellent as per usual and we produced some absolutely beautiful images together. We conversed easily on a range of topics during the shoot and the time just flew by with a slight mistake on both our parts about when the shoot was due to finish being swiftly and easily rectified. It was great working with Jade again and I look forward to shooting with her again in the future. Very highly recommended!

Jade comes highly recommended - turns up on time with lots of clothing options and inspirational posing. Great fun to be around and was very patient with my constant adjusting of studio lights!

I had fantastic opportunity to work with Jade again at her studio day at Prodel Photographic.

I was working with Jade around two years ago (I think it was mid of 2019), just before the locks downs/ covid etc in UK so I was very happy about our 2nd collaboration together.

I loved the Jade comment that the: "As we have had such a gap between working together I could see how much his eye for a shot and skills have improved".

Working with Jade and Nigel was superb and I had fantastic time there.

I believe that we did our best to create the perfect lighting and we truly collaborate in order to the best possible results.

Finally YES I would love to work with Jade again as soon as possible in 2022!

I had a fantastic shoot at Prodel studios yesterday with the wonderful Jade Lyon. Jade was punctual and well prepared. Jade looks great and has all the poses. Thanks to Jade for a fun shoot. Highly recommended. Nick.

Jade and I had our third model studio day at Prodel Photographic at the weekend and Jade was a delight to work with, as always!

Jade always rocks up looking a million dollars and ready to shoot, which in our case, is vital, so we always have time to test the last few details before our client photographers turn up!

Her patient, easy-going and friendly approach combines beautifully with her experience and professionalism, and I genuinely do think everyone leaves with a hatful of great shots, happy with the day.

I can 100% recommend Jade as both a model and a collaborative partner, and I sincerely hope our successful run of studio days has plenty of legs left in it! Thank you for all your hard work, Jade! You are a star! 😊

I spent a really enjoyable time with Jade this morning at Prodel Studio shooting a film noir session.

Jade was so professional and patient.

She was able to help me create some really great images.

I would like to suggest that any photographer who enjoys working with a professional model who can pose so effortlessly should book Jade for their shoot.

Many thanks Jade you are a star

Had an awesome remote shooting with Jade.

Communication was perfect and her setup was perfectly organized.

Hope to do another one soon! Thanks again.

Fifth shoot with Jade, and again something completely different: UNDERWATER. Not me, her. Jade organised a shoot at TankSpace with herself and Danica modelling, and wow what an afternoon it was! Great outfits, plenty of shooting time and more images out of it than I knew what to do with. Completely different from what I'd normally shoot, totally worth it. Such a brilliantly organised event, thanks Jade!

I love shooting with the charming and gorgeous Jade, I mean she is awesome and we always have a fabulous shoot and her vintage christmas concept was epic and even though we don't go for quantity of shots, we get the quality shots and fun memories in a relaxed shoot.

Highly recommended and thank you again, 1000% recommended.

My first shoot with Jade as part of her Christmas themed event at Prodel Studio. Jade was very friendly, welcoming and easy to work with and happily offered great suggestions and advice to get the best shots. I was lucky enough to be able to shoot both the 1950's and 1970's themes and came away with some excellent images. I highly recommend working with Jade and look forward to doing so again soon.

I attended Jade Lyon's Vintage Studio Day at Prodel Photographic Studio. The themes for the day were great choices and right up my street, I was pleased to get the opportunity to shot both styles, the classic vintage 1920s-40s in the morning and the high key fun 1950s in the afternoon. I have seen a lot of Jade's great work and was very glad this chance arose to shoot. Jade is an incredibly creative person and brought a lot to the table. She had great suggestions and a fantastic attitude, always willing to try different ideas as well as producing an array of great poses. We produced some great results and had fun in doing so, highly recommended model.

Great day, hope to work with you again in the near future.

Many thanks, Jon

I had another remote shoot with Jade the other day and couldn't be happier. She handles the technology of the remote shooting perfectly and is a perfect model. I love the way she acts, happy and willing to adapt and try different concepts and is intelligent and personable. Jade is everything a photographer is looking for--if you want a lovely and smart and photogenic model contact Jade. You certainly won't be sorry.

This was Jade’s second visit to the studio, when she kindly agreed to come in for a test shoot in preparation for a forthcoming studio day (watch this space). We shot a moody classic vintage style and fun 50’s look.

This was a very fast-paced shoot, for just 2hrs, and relied heavily and on Jade’s experience, professional approach, good nature and work ethic to get through the shoot list. I am delighted with the outcome and am so looking forward to working with Jade again soon!

Thank you again, Jade, you are a star!
