Yesterday i hired John's studio in The Gostins Building for a few hours. The studio was exactly what i was looking for. Nice space, good lighting and John was more than helpful.

Arriving earlier than me and the other makeup artists, he greeted us at the door, and showed us up to the studio. John made sure we had everything we needed and showed us exactly where everything was. I look forward to hiring the studio for many more shoots in the future and also working with John.

Thank You John :)

Had a great day in Johns event at Woolton Hall, Liverpool.

Great place and very well organized.

It was pretty cold that day and John provide us with hot drinks, food and hot water bottles :)

Friendly, fun and productive atmosphere.

Amazing experience no matter are you newbie or professional.

Definitely highly recommended!

Had another shoot with John at his networking day at Katie's house. This was such a fantastic day and I managed to shoot with John to do some creative poses with an avant garde style theme. John as usual was very directive and great to work with! Looking forward to working with him again!

I worked with John on a network day he and naila organised a few weeks ago and many other times before, I would highly recommend him as he has great skill and creativity when it comes to photography also came well prepared with alot of amazing props to work with.

He is a great person easy to talk to and made me feel very comfortable in front of the camera and his overall attitude is great.

Thank you.

My first shoot at John's studio today. Great comms and it took no time at all to sort the details. John is a thoroughly nice chap and made sure I had everything I could possibly need. The studio itself is a neat space perfect for my needs, great value, ideally located right in the city centre. I'm sure I'll be shooting at the studio again and look forward to seeing it develop and expand. Cheers John.

Shot for the full day at John's studio in the Gostins building today. The studio had everything I needed, was great value and when I had an issue with my memory card he lent me an empty one so I could carry on shooting. Thanks so much John!

I have known John for a short while and have been to a number of his and Naila's fantastic sessions in Katie's House.

This was my first 1-1 shoot with John and what can I say? The location of the studio was very convenient, John was very accommodating and he had a variety of styles and ideas that we went through.

John was very polite, gave clear directions and was up to try creative things! Would have gladly spent more time shooting with him.

I relish the prospect of shooting with him again. Top guy!

Worked with John over the weekend to continue developing my knowledge and experience with photography and modelling. What a cool, fun and professional guy who clearly knows what works well. Instantly, I was relaxed and he made the shoot enjoyable. The location of the studio is great, as well as there being lots of props that can be used. Recommend John for other models and photographers.

John's extremely helpful and the studio has the benefit of great natural light.

dam it somebody has already used "if Carling did group shoots" but that sums it up really.

John and Naila organised a 2 day group shoot at Woolton Hall (a whole 4 mins down the road from me!) so really I had to go didn't I and am I glad I did. It was so good I went the next day as well as somebody dropped out last minute.

The organisation was superb from laying on little snarks for when people first arrive to the table football machine in the unlikely event somebody has any free time! The snacks are useful for people who may have missed breakfast as it is an early start and that kind of thoughtfulness is extended throughout the day by both of them.

John and Naila are like chalk and cheese, he seems quiet and restrained and she basically is a little whirlwind !

If you can get on the next one do it its a brilliant place to shoot with loads of rooms and staircases etc as irs a network style event the models will change but there were loads there on the 2 days I was there from Goths to Glamour, newbie to experienced models and I learnt so much from watching some of the other togs work ie just how adequate I am.

John arranged a fabulous networking session at Woolton Hall, what a amazing building. Superbly organised and it was great to meet Naila too. Looking forward to attending the next one. Very highly recommended :)

Loved working with John at a networking event at Woolton Hall. Because I was really new to this he was always on hand to answer any questions, making sure I had been available to shoot with all the photographers on the day and overall wellbeing by making sure we were all okay etc. Already can't wait for the next one :)

Would definitely have a one to one shoot with John to see other styles and themes I can try out.

John organised and oversaw a wonderful location group shot. Right off the bat it was obvious he knew what he was doing and did this with aplomb. Attention to details as required and then some. No doubt everyone had a great time and as planned it was an amazing day. Thanks again John 

I had the pleasure of working with John Ayliffe. Professional shoot in a stunning setting. Everything was very clearly explained prior to the shoot the shoot ran smoothly and everyone on model network day were lovely to work with. Tea coffee and biscuits were on flow as and when you required. Very relaxed and happy environment would highly recommend John.

Would love to collaborate again sometime.

If Carling did group shoots, they would probably get John to organise them. Excellent coms, very good organisation and friendly professional manner. A good guy to work with.

Worked on John and Naila's Project Breathe shoot

They have sourced a great venue that really does give Models, MUA's, Designers & Photographers the opportunity to showcase their skills in environments that ooze decaying grandeur ... Some lovely little surprises as you explore the place.

They communicate well and also promote sharing & collaboration so everybody gets something from the day ....I cant commend this enough....

Anyone wanting to kick start their portfolio would benefit enormously.

Looking forward to the next shoot and meeting new togs, models and MUA's

Thanks John & Naila
