I attended an experience day that John ran with Jenni at Rococo Farm on Monday. I had a great time - John is an amiable sort with lots of knowledge to share, and organised a very good day of shooting. Recommended!

Nothing negative at all to say about this gentleman, Loved every minute of the group shoot & what a tutor!

I came away from Bodyline Studio, with a lot more knowledge that I went in with.

This guy is unique in the way he shows you how things work to get the best results in photography.

Had a awesomee, lighting tutorial with you John, came out with some brilliant shots, with one of the best models, I've ever worked with ( Black Beauty )

Thanks for the three hrs John, much appreciated :)

Hope I can make the next shoot in Dec 2019.

Sorry I was late in giving you a ref. I had news today, to pick up My new Nikon Z50 so off I went to pick it up. Can't wait to use it in your next tutorial.

Thanks again!

You are a minefield of knowledge in the photography world & would highly recommend you to all photographers, new & old.

Another great lighting workshop with JD tuition at clickaway studios on Wednesday John setup some wonderful lighting and was happy to explain the lighting setup to a newbie like myself to studio work. I highly recommend John's workshops and very well priced.

I have known John for some years, so when the casting came up for his workshop at Rococo Farm, I jumped at the chance to work with him. He ran the workshop in a very relaxed manner, making it easy for the photographers to do their own thing, but providing advice and assistance when required. I would highly recommend his workshops to both experienced and less experienced photographers. There is always something new to be learned!

I will keep an eye on the castings, and hope to work with John again soon.

Another belter of a shoot in the bag. I can hardly call it work with you guys!!! You're all so on my level it's amazing. You banter back with me, we have a laugh AND THEN we get some cracking images. The proof is in the pictures 

Not a single negative thing to say about shooting with you. Absolutely, 100%, recommended to all!!! Hope To See You Again Soon xX

Belle Noire aka Black Beauty

Well that is what you call smashing a tutorial shoot!

I had so much fun and I know out of the few images you got to take there will be some bangers in there.

Thank you for booking me as the model for yesterday and I look forward to the next workshop later this month.

You're kind, friendly, professional, talented and a joy to work for :)

110% Highly Recommended To All xX

Yesterday I modelled for a group-shoot with a musical theme that John had organised. The shoot was very well put together, and thought out, proving popular with photographers, six in all. There was enough time for all of the photographers to shoot their own ideas, and the sets at Clickaway studios were a good choice for the ideas that John had. Pre-event communications were excellent, and if the opportunity arose to work with John, I would take it. A very good experience, thank you.

Had my first studio session at Click Away studio with JD tuition at the weekend I was made to feel very welcome on arrival and introduced to the other photographers and our model for the day Ben M, we had great tuition from John regarding lighting setup also explaining some of the more technical side to lighting this was much appreciated by myself as I'm on a learning curve, I highly recommend this studio and will be back soon.

Would like to have a shoot with female or male ballet dancers or both together.

John, his collection of lenses and cameras and myself, took part in a short street-shoot in Walsall today, around the art gallery and the Arboretum. Pre-shoot communications were excellent, as was the shoot itself. John is very easy to get on with and is a fount of knowledge when it comes to photography and cameras, and I look forward to working with him again in August for our workshop.

I have worked with John on several shoot! I was asked to model his workshop.

John always brings the best, naturally out of me! And his work in his photography and running a workshop! Is to perfection.

Thankyou John , as l achieved my modeling skills even further.

I always enjoy working with John and last night was no exception.

Asked to model for one of his workshops, I had first class treatment from the start. Kindly driven to the studio by one of the photographers, it saved trying to find parking in what I knew to be an awkward area.

John always amazes me with his vast knowledge and wonderful bag of tricks (kit), last night we were treated to a new light modifier, which if my memory serves me correctly had a frenelle lens.

Of course it produced beautiful light and one of the lighting set ups he created from it was just amazing!

A lovely relaxed evening, fabulous company and of course another learning curve. Studio's, Models photographers alike, I can't recommend John enough.

Thank you x

I modelled for one of Johns workshops on Monday and would have no hesitation in recommending him.

The 3 photographers booked were incredibly respectful and great company too :)

John set up a few different looks for them and they all seemed very pleased with what they let with!

Happily recommended by me!

I attended another of JD's workshops last night.A monthly event that John organises and runs, at Click Away Studio.

As well as providing excellent lighting advice and tuition at the events, John also ensures that the models he works with are of the highest standard. Last night was no exception. We had the pleasure of working with the wonderful French Chloe. I've been lucky enough to have worked with John on a number of occasions over the past 10 months. I have left several reference here, so I'll refrain from repeating myself. However,I will say, if you see one of John's events on PP, book yourself onto it. You will learn a great deal and you will come away with some excellent images.

Don't take my word for it. Read some more of Johns references.

Absolutely 100% recommended.

I attended a lighting seminar yesterday conducted by the photographer John Duder at Click Away studio in Wednesbury, West Midlands. In addition to myself there were two other photographers and our model for the session was the wonderful French Chloe. John guided us through several sets and lighting arrangements and by the end of the evening I felt that I had learned quite a bit. John's style is friendly and supportive, creating a nice atmosphere and making the whole event most enjoyable. I would certainly hope to work with John again in future and would recommend him to other togs!

I had a fabulous shoot in Redditch yesterday with John he organised the shoot and everything went to plan and flowed wonderfully. John has an excellent knowledge on photography and was able to produce some fantastic shots through concentrating on the light and relating it to a film noir style shoot. I would highly recommend John for photographers who are looking for in depth knowledge on how to get the lighting correct for any style shoot. Hope to work with him again soon as we really got on and worked together well!

John came along to our February show in Rotherham and shot some amazing pictures of all the burlesque acts during the evening. Capturing acts in full swing is notoriously difficult but he shot some truly great moments throughout the performances. He was professional and pleasant to work with, the pictures were just great and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone. Would definitely work with John again and look forward to seeing more of his work ☺️

Nick Beech

Attended a group shoot with Kym Williams at ClickAway organised by John.

The event was really good, very professional and well run.

Lots of different set ups and he gave out some great advice and tips throughout the evening.

Will definitely be attending more of his events and would highly recommend them to everyone.

Would definitely recommend to all
