This photographer is so trustworthy that I've let him move in with me. Work with him whilst you still can.

Awesome and talented, Sparkman is a legend to work with. He knows how to bring the best out of you with great directions as well as adding a bit of fun to the shoot. He was spot on with his communication prior to the shoot and the idea he came up with for the shoot was brilliant and just what my portfolio needed. I feel quite lucky that I have worked with him and I hope I am lucky enough to work with him again in the near future.

Thanks Jon x

I had an awesome time with Sparkman on my shoot. He is full of ideas and a natural with the camera. He made me feel very comfortable and we had a laugh between shots, which is important. A really nice, genuine guy, with a great talent. My images are brilliant, I cant recommend him highly enough and hope to work with him again soon :)

I’ve been fortunate to work with some incredibly good photographers over the past seven years and, at the risk of blowing smoke up his bottom, I can honestly say that Jon ranks right up there at the very top of that list. Any way you choose to measure it – technical proficiency, pre-shoot preparedness, planning and communications, ideas for the shoot, giving direction, encouraging the model to freestyle, willingness to experiment, generally being an awesome and friendly fella – Jon genuinely stands among the best I’ve ever worked with. He is truly one of the great young talents on the scene today and it is my privilege to have modelled for him.

It will be very soon before I forget how many times I've shot with Sparkman! He's very welcoming and time always flies. No matter what style of shoot he's very versatile and enjoys trying new techniques which means it's never boring or doing the same old. I constantly see him improve his photography, which is great to see- especially as he's still young. Watch this space! He'll be one of the greats before long ;)

I've worked with Mr. Sparkman on multiple occasions at his studio, and every time has been brilliant! :D

He is very professional and is full of great ideas!

The finished edited images are always of a high quality and I always recieve them quickly :)

I highly recommend working with Jon Sparkman!

I've done two shoots with Jon, one was my first (last year) and one was recently. Both times he was lovely and made me feel completely at ease and he's also very funny and conversational, always a plus. I'd recommend him to everyone wanting to shoot in and around Cheltenham.

I've shot with Sparkman 3 times now, and don't believe our last shoot will be any time soon. He constantly has new ideas, giving efficient direction each time as he's secure in knowing what he wants, plus we've worked on a whole range of styles. I'm happy that I can approach him at any time to work on any project, and he'd be able to produce excellent results, beautifully retouched. He never fails to be polite, professional, understanding, and always creates a warm, relaxed atmosphere to work in. Genuinely recommended :)

I shot again with Jon on Friday. As always, it was a fun, relaxed shoot. He even plaited my hair and bought me skittles. Will be working with him countless times again.
