Andy is so great! I had about my fourth shoot ever with him and he was so patient as he kindly went through all the poses with me. He gave me so much advice and so many useful tips about posing, photographers, and just the modelling world in general. It was invaluable!

On top of that he's absolutely hilarious and had me in stitches all day. And did I say he takes amazing photographs too!

He provided lunch and let me play with his dogs all day. Top day, I couldn't recommend him highly enough and can't wait to work with him again.

Very pleased with our images from a group shoot yesterday at Art Asylum Weymouth! Easy to work with, lots of fun and would work with again.

Had the pleasure of meeting and working with Andy for the first time yesterday at a the Art Asylum in Weymouth. We had chatted back and forth about shoot ideas and levels for a couple of weeks and he made me feel so settled and confident that walking into the shoot was a breeze. He made me laugh throughout and had a fantastic knowledge of the lighting, also helped me adjust the odd pose to get the best out of the shot. A really ego boosting experience and I can't wait to work with him again!

My first shoot with Jake41 has been

As part of an Andrew Appleton workshop.

I would very much like the opportunity to work with him again :)

Had my very first shoot with Andy today. I drove up from Plymouth to Weymouth to shoot with him at a really cool location. Cool in both meanings lol but Andy was a gent and made sure I was warm.

I was really looking forward to meeting and shooting with Andy and I was not disappointed. I am extremely pleased with our results and just wish he lived closer.

He is very professional. Knows exactly what he wants and how to achieve it.

He is a very funny guy and I massively recommend him.

Thank you so much for today.

Full of wit and humour, you can tell Andy really loves his work and can guarantee it will be a fun shoot. He has a real vision for photography and knows how to create beautiful images.

Highly recommended.

Another great shoot with Andy, always fun to work with and always great images, looking forward to our next shoot which is already booked and having longer to work together.

I had an absolutely fantastic third shoot with Andy at my place on Saturday and as per usual, he didn't disappoint! He turned up on time, fully prepared and raring to go. The lighting was superb, the angles were great and his direction was on point.

Besides our usual kind of shoot, Andy also very kindly offered to take some images of me and my other half, as we would like to start shooting together. Andy was great with direction, eased Col (my other half) into it nicely and directed us into some great poses, helping us to understand what looked good and what didn't, when working together.

All in all an absolutely great day! Lots learnt, laughs had and brilliant images produced!

I highly recommend working with Andy if you get the chance.

It was great to see Andy again at our second shoot at "MrDave's" on Saturday. We'd briefly discussed some ideas beforehand and Andy came prepared with a clear idea of the shots he wanted to get.

We moved swiftly from set to set and Andy was happy to direct me to get the best results from the shoot.

Once again I am very pleased with the pictures, although I feel on my part that there is still room for improvement and I hope to meet up with Andy again soon.

Highly recommended!

I have just had another fantastic, fabulous amazing shoot with Andy :)

This time we were in a hair salon with a few other models and the lovely Paul Cruiser.

The day was really fun , we managed a variety of ideas which complimented the unique setting.

I do love shooting with Andy, he is trustworthy and a true gent... I class him now as a friend and often seek advice from him if I need it.

He always sends the pictures from the shoot immediately for viewing and they are brilliant .. as is his editing skills.

As always I would highly recommend Andy, roll on the next one - can't wait x

Shot with Andy for a second time and once again had an amazing shoot and a fantastic time. Andy is hands down one of the best photographers I've had the pleasure of working with and cannot recommend him enough. He's so friendly, thoughtful and respectful when shooting and always has no problem with my mum coming along too! His photography skills are out of this world and I use so many of his shots on my port. If you get the chance to work with him, TAKE IT! You'll learn he likes going to the pub a lot too ;)

What can I say about my shoot Sunday!

Amazing to say the least. My first shoot back after a couple years off, and he helped direct, made me feel at ease, biscuits and tea provided, and the images were perfect. Such a good day. I had some change of plans due to flight delays which made me a bit late on the day and also slightly flustered and stressed. Hevwas totaly understanding, very relaxed, in turn helping me relax. It was just a pleasure and im extremely happy I had chance for this shoot and can't wait until our next.

Thanks again! :)

Iv just had a absolutely amazing shoot with this amazing man at his new home studio.

The day went so quickly I wish we had more time, the day was full of laughter topped off with coffee on tap! I got to try out a few different styles some of which I havnt tried before but where on my list to do :) The images are incredible - I am so happy with them I am struggling to choose my favourites.

Thank you for a brilliant day, the direction, the ideas and for not minding when I made your bathroom soaking wet :) but most of all thank you for being so brilliant!

Highly recommended and would work with Jake41 again in a heartbeat

Well I don't know how, but my second shoot with Andy was even more enjoyable than the first! Again, he turned up on time, with his sense of humour and was as professional, friendly and polite as the first time we shot.

For this shoot, I asked Andy if he would mind shooting one of my ideas, that is a little different to his usual style. I chose Andy for this, as I love his work and thought that he would compliment my idea well. He definitely did not disappoint! He came up with some beautiful lighting techniques and his editing skills are top notch. I am so so pleased that he decided to work with me on this! I cannot wait to work with him again!

I highly recommend working with Andy if you get the chance. You would be daft not to.

I've lost count how many times I have worked with Andy now...but I keep going back for more 😀. We shot this time at an old school boxing gym alongside another model we have worked with before. Andy came armed with coffee and biscuits (always a good start in my book!) and of course his sense of humour! He worked tirelessly between two models to change scenes and lighting set ups with very few actual breaks. Results are amazing as usual and despite the fact he had to drive a couple of hours to get home I still got ALL my images in Dropbox that same night!

I love working with Andy, he gives me confidence and never applies pressure on a shoot, he is always checking how comfortable I am and I would totally recommend him

I was on hand as Andy's MUA for the day working on Lexi Lane at Lane Home studios on an arabic themed boudoir shoot. He is a very lovely gent, very funny! All I could hear from the room was them chatting and laughing away. I'd had a long weekend and Andy was kind enough to bring me all the way home from Kent to my door in London, hugely hugely appreciated after the lack of sleep that weekend!! The results are awesome, I would love to help out again on a shoot one day :)

Just returned from a SUPERB shoot with Andy.

All I can say is, wow!

If you're looking to work with a talented, humorous photographer with odd socks - then Andy is your guy!

I have never felt so safe and secure on a shoot before, as I have today. Andy was respectful the entire shoot, making sure I always felt comfortable with what I was doing. He was also extremely precise with lighting and positioning, which ensured I got the best images possible.

Andy knew exactly how to loosen up my emotions that held me back at the start and made me feel relaxed and reassured throughout.

He was an absolute pleasure to work with. All I could say was "wow" as I scanned through the images on the camera. There is no doubt he has an incredible talent for what he does.

Extremely pleased with today's shoot, cannot wait to see the images and I would highly recommend to any model!

Hope to work with him again very soon :)

Andy kindly invited me along to the Studland House weekend (how could I refuse?!). I've worked with Andy three times now and I still keep wanting more. He's a fantastic bloke who knows what he wants out of a shoot. He's so easy to work with and we can have a great laugh (although I don't think he likes my singing as I keep being told off!!). Pre shoot comms were great and Andy is just full of ideas!

I look forward to working with him again very soon!!

I met Andy again on the Studland weekend shoot a couple weeks ago. I've met Andy a few times but never really had the opportunity to speak to him properly.

We had a quick spontaneous shoot on Saturday evening. I was dying to get some cute bath pics and he kindly sacrificed going to the pub to spend a bit of time shooting me, and he nailed it!! I love the images that he's produced.

Andy is just awesome, he's down to earth, professional and absalutly hilarious! The poor guy even walked a total of 10 miles to buy me Tobacco 🙈 at least you'll remember me 😂😂😂

Can't recommend him highly enough!!!

Thanks Andy
