Had the pleasure in working with Stu once again. Simply a lovely human, and a big shoutout to his Wife Jen, for also helping out so much and looking after us all (especially aftercare for rope)

I always appreciate the work we make together and the work you make with other creatives.

Wonderful photographer and shibari rigger.

Thanks so much again! See you next time 💖💖

Can't wait for future shoots 🔥🔥

Had the pleasure of meeting Stu at the Halloween event I hosted. He’s a super friendly guy, and a great photographer. He worked with many models throughout the day and has already uploaded some amazing images. I’d recommend any model to work with him. Hope to work with you sometime soon!🥰🥰

The Gilded Lilith

Absolutely amazing shoot with Jeffstu. He was a photographer at a Halloween themed group shoot, was brilliant with advising on poses (which, as a fairly new model, was super helpful), got some incredibly effective photos (including brilliant editing) and had some awesome ideas.

Would love to work with Jeffstu again in the future and would 100% recommend him.

An amazing creative, jeffstu shot with me (as a photographer and model) yesterday during a group shoot.

As a photographer, he has a keen eye to detail and enjoys playing around with creative ideas which keeps things interesting and ensures that sets are different to the rest.

So far the images look excellent and I can’t wait to see the rest. Would recommend!

I'd recommend Jeffstu as a photographer.

Known Jeffstu too long to remember. We met maybe around 2008.

Jeffstu is a professional, very open minded, open to shoot ideas and was very creative during the shoot.

The room we were given to shoot in had a few limitations, but Jeffstu found creative ways around all the limitations.

All communication before and during the shoot was spot on. We looked at the room, lighting and costumes together on video chat before the shoot.

Response time to questions was/is always fast. Stu is reliable, punctual, realistic and will keep you updated on the day. I'm not just referring to our shoot, but also a character reference for knowing Stu so long. All of the above applies to social meet ups and work.

We also worked together (maybe 7/8 years ago before Stu discovered his love for photography) on a two day shoot. Stu was a great asset to the team.

Since then Stu's love for photography and interest in photos in general shows and this is why Jeffstu is producing great work as a photographer.

Looking forward to seeing what Jeffstu produces next and working with Jeffstu again.

What a talent and what a thoroughly nice bloke.

Had a fabulous few hours in his company this weekend and created some beautiful images.

He's brilliant at what he does and was 100% professional the whole way through, would love to work with him again.

Don't let his quiet demeanor fool you, he has a wicked sense of humour. xx

Met stu at group shoot event, was really great to work with, was my 1st group shoot so was abit anxious but he was really easy going and relaxed which put me at ease throughout the shoot. Would work with him again and would recommend working with him if you can

I’d been communicating with Stu online about his shibari work as he was someone I wanted to work with after seeing his portfolio. He told me about a networking shoot which I went along to and got the chance to work with him both as a photographer and shibari rigger. He communicated well before the event and had lots of creative ideas. He is a really laid back, friendly guy and has endless patience. He has taken some fabulous shots both with and without ropes and has sent them to me edited really quickly. I would definitely love to do more rope work and would recommend :)

Blonde Mermaid

I had a shoot with Jeffstu at a networking event in Manchester. He is a great guy and a very talented photographer. I just love the images he took of me and hope to be able to work with him again. Highly recommended.

River Horton

Had my second shoot with Stu, this time at Rainbow Studio with GaryMac Photography, for some more Shibari work.

Stu is an amazing guy, so easy going, easy to get on with, has a good sense of humour, and is attentive to the model's needs and safety. He really does know what he's doing with Shibari.

Definitely recommended and I can't wait for the next shoot.

Spellbound

Had a fantastic shoot with Stu today at Studio74a. He was very attentive to me when I was suspended & tied me in a stunning way!

Cant wait to work with him again :)

Totally reccomend x

Studio 74a

Know him a long time. Fantastic with his rope, very friendly and helpful person. Would recommend for rope required pictures!

AdelineEve

Stu is incredibly good at what he does - both his skill with the rope, teaching and making sure the model always feels comfortable and safe. He's lovely to talk to and always completely professional and friendly. I would highly recommend the shibari/suspension experience to anyone interested and Stu is the perfect man to introduce you :) super excited for the images!

Rainbow Studio

Stu booked the Studio for a Shibari Shoot with AdelineEve with GaryMac Photography providing support on the lighting and photography

It all worked extremely well, Jeff came full kitted out with all ropes and tackle, even his own seat :-)

Stu is superb with the ropework, his patience, sense of humor, relaxed attitude put Adeline totally at ease and she was fully briefed and aware of what was planned and was happening at all times

Total professional, hope to work with Stu again soon at Rainbow Studio

Cheers

Having meet Stu at my Studio to discuss a collaboration and knowledge share

Stu with Shibari and RopeWork and me with Studio and camera work

Arranged a shoot with BlackSwann, to see if we all could work together

It all worked extremely well, Jeff came full kitted out with all ropes and tackle, even his own seat :-)

Stu is really patient and demonstrated and taught the rope basics in a way that was relatively easy to pick up, Stu was so relaxed, patient passed on his vast knowledge in a easy manner that relaxed everybody else

The result was a great learning experience, and an awesome shoot as well

Both myself and the model were in good hands

Cheers Stu for the instruction and a great days Shoot

Gary :-)

Areteus

A very competent and professional rope artist who clearly knows a lot about what he does, reflects on his actions and works hard to improve every time.

Managed to organise a somewhat complicated shoot with four moving targets needed to be lined up on one day at one time in one place... managed it perfectly and had a series of interesting ties prepared. Pre comms were excellent and he took into account suggestions from me as the photographer and also considered and respected other participant's professional skills.

On set he is a reassuring and calming presence who is always aware of safety issues and the comfort of the model.
