Had the absolute joy of a shoot with the fabulous Keira. A consummate professional. A perfectly presented pose machine equally happy to take direction where desired. Absolutely comfortable spanning art nude through to glamour. A lovely selection of available wardrobe items. Intelligent and charming. She clearly has technical knowledge which she plays down but it’s definitely there ! I came away with so many keepers, I don’t know where to start. See you again Keira.

Second shoot with the little bundle of energy and creativity named Keira.

You cannot go wrong with her wether you give her free reins or give her direction you'll end up with a memory card (or a film for those who still use it) full of goodies. Even the confines of the small apartment where the shoot occurred were unable to restrain her, as she climbed on high window sills, or tried to get inside the washing machine! Alas, the 2 hours passed too quickly.

Yet again I enjoyed working with her very much and I would of course highly recommend her.

A real gem! Five stars! :)

I thought I'd already left a reference and quite clearly I hadn't so I apologise for this oversight.

I booked a couple of hours with Keira at her stopover accommodation before she flew out to Sardinia.

I'm so glad I did. It was like a great big bubble of ever-growing creativity that was never going to go pop! There was some awesome bead lingerie, hoodies and smeared lipstick. Toasters and spatulas and some red hot erotica. Prisms and my purple butterfly.

Just a fantastic 2 hours that I know will never ever be replicated.....ever!

Utterly talented, beautiful and oh so much the clever girl next door. I could go on and on but don't want to sound like a fanboi :)

I went with Keira Lavelle and Renais Sance on one of their Arts Voyage holidays to Malta. I have known Keira for about six years and shot with her on group shoots several times. Keira had recce'd excellent locations for us and found others 'on the hoof' by talking to local people we met.

How to describe Keira? A bundle of energy with amazing organisational skills and an almost OCD-like attention to detail, an excellent cook and very pleasant company with a great sense of humour.

As a model Keira has an excellent range of poses and understanding of lighting, framing etc. She can also interpret the photographer's ideas perfectly and give them back to you better than you imagined them. She seems completely fearless, climbing rocks and waterfalls as well as diving off boats in a rough sea to swim to an otherwise inaccessible location. Despite this, she always has her own and others' safety as her top priority.

An excellent, thoroughly enjoyable week with two very talented and beautiful models. Keira Lavelle is highly recommended by me. Pete

Fantasy Dabblers

We shot with Keira throughout a 7 day photography holiday in Gozo, Malta. She is an amazing model and wonderful person to spend time with. She overflows with energy and imagination and is rightly famous for the amazing acrobatic shapes she creates. She had scouted some remarkable locations, such as an abandoned hotel which sparked ideas from us to add to the ones she was ready with. She worked well both to our direction and when we wanted her to add her own ideas.

She is also extraordinarily able to respond to situations and take advantage of opportunities, such as when a rainstorm prompted her to create amazing shots of her head coming out of the swimming pool while rain and hail churned the surrounding water.

Keira also worked tirelessly both before and during the holiday to create a memorable experience, from finding a comfortable but photogenic villa base, to driving to locations, to preparing tasty and attractive lunches.

We must specially add thanks for her response when one of us could not travel to all locations because of disability. She showed great flexibility and understanding including willingness to put herself to extra trouble to make sure everyone enjoyed a fair share of the holiday.

I had my second shoot with Keira yesterday and I hope its the second of 200 or more. Expressive, exciting and excellent in every department. I just love shooting with this beautiful lady. Chatty and fun but very professional and brilliant too. The very high standard of pictures in her portfolio are testament to her skills and ability to bring out the best in photographers.

Unreservedly recommended and I can't wait for us to shoot again.

Thank you Keira

A absolutely fantastic location shoot with Keira on her latest tour of the north of Scotland. We shot in 3 locations, including a cold loch which she was happy to submerge herself in. As always, her creative contribution to the shoot made for some brilliant pictures and her eye for the best angles really made a huge difference.

What else can I say? The best just keeps getting better!

Donald Sutherland

Keira, freak of nature, pocket rocket, human dynamo, flexy bendy thing, commitment personified, never say never attitude, dedicated, versatile, character actress, model extraordinaire, shape shifter, beautiful, intelligent, wicked sense of humour, friend - just some of the words to describe this delight. Of course she's totally crazy, she keeps coming back to work with me.

Wrapped in her trademark oversized coat, and not a lot more, hauling more baggage than a house fliting, flicking her blonde mane and flashing a killer smile she arrived to stay. The fun had just begun.

Working with Keira is a blur, show her a location, hint at an idea, she'll add the secret ingredient green tea (don't tell it's pond swamp). Shapes, bends, kicks, jumps, perfect poses, wonderous costumes, high fives, happy squeals, pure enjoyment accompany an awesome yield. Art nude, urbex, location fashion, suspension, submersion, emotion and pathos, 10 sets, 8 locations nothing phases her. Did I mention naked bodyscapes over 4000 feet up a mountain at 8 o'clock at night?

As always Keira it's been a pleasure, a total blast from start to the all to quick finish. Thank you again, roll on the next time.

I can't recommend her highly enough, she's the real deal.

PS she's house trained too!

Fleeting Image

With great difficulty I almost managed to slow Keira down to my pace and that of my 'past it sell buy date' knee. This was our third shoot in the NW Highlands but at an even more gentle pace each time we meet, this time including some stock tourism images. Even the weather managed to be good, unlike a week later as I write this on the May Bank holiday weekend when it's snowing ! Keira is great to work with, reliable and punctual too.

I had another shoot with Keira last Friday. This time she was cosplaying as the character "High Elf Archer" from the anime "Goblin Slayer." She really did an amazing job of portraying the character.

Keira always gives her all to ensure great images when modelling. In this example we were shooting in the Culbin Forest, she climbed a few different trees and did poses in the branches. We got hundreds of photos taken during our time shooting.

After the main photoshoot we got a few more photos where Keira was cosplaying as a different character, this time Hana from Prison School. Again she did a great job of portraying the character.

Keira is truly fantastic to work with and highly recommended.

PhotoClassic

I have said before that Keira is a force of nature. Her dedication to achieving superb images is second to none and she has boundless energy to bring to a shoot.

Keira has modelled several times for my Art Nude In the Landscape Experience but this year, we ran the event twice in one week with just one day off in between. This is already an event that requires models with strength, determination and stamina on top of ability but running it twice back to back was going to be exceptionally tough for everyone on the team, especially the models, as this event is extremely demanding both physically and emotionally. However, Keira just kept going. When things got tough, there was Keira, posing around like a modelling Duracell Bunny.

If you want a model with ridiculous amounts of energy, a catalog of stunning poses and a determination to create special images, then I would definitely recommend Keira very highly

Batwoman

If you want a model with mountains of energy book Keira. Her talent and enthusiasm is endless, her poses are stunning in any landscape but her unique skills of clambering up a rock face or lying in a frozen river are endless. I am convinced this girl never feel the cold and this shows in the images. Keira joined us again this year for PhotoClassic's Art Nude in the Landscape workshop and gave us some unique images only she is capable of. I love working with Keira and would recommend her to any photographer.

My third opportunity to work with Keira came on PhotoClassic's art nude in the landscape workshop in the Scottish Highlands, when we worked together for 2 1/2 days .

I have always been impressed by Keira's modelling talents and abilities, but what was crystal clear to me on this shoot is just how hard she works and the amazing level of commitment she has; make no mistake it is truly exceptional (in the true meaning of the word) .

Weather conditions over the 2 1/2 days shooting in the Scottish highlands were extremely challenging with strong cold winds ripping across the bleak landscape. Not only did Keira never waver under such duress, but she stepped up to the plate working even harder to make sure all the photographers secured the images they wished to shoot. It was a stellar performance from a seriously talented model.

It was hard to believe that Keira could get to some of the places she modelled, and her poses were as unique and eye-catching as ever.

Quite apart from her top-class modelling abilities Keira is also a very easy person to work with, and to get along with. She is always calm and composed, and inspires confidence.

It is always a joy to watch any athletes at the top of their form and at the top of their profession. What Keira shares with such exceptional achievers is that golden combination of innate talent and skill, combined with an iron determination to succeed, and an incredibly hard work ethic both in preparing for, and delivering, her modelling.

I have the utmost respect for Keira with her modelling, and recommend working with her extremely highly to other photographers.

Many thanks Keira for yet another truly exceptional series of shoots.

Best wishes

Well, in my last reference for Keira, I wrote that I wished I could work with her again as I had several projects in mind... and my wish came true. This was mostly on location again, and this time the weather was perfect. Into the loch she strode without a qualm, and remained in there for what I was sure would be too long, but no, this is the indomitable Keira Lavelle we are talking about. I checked if she was okay from time to time and she seemed quite happy. More than that, just as she was moving through a series of poses to create ripples, a cob swan swam across the viewfinder, just checking that Keira wasn’t making unwarranted advances on his nest and mate. Keira was fascinated, turned to watch her new friend, and, never missing a beat, continuing to work fantastic poses of rising and sinking. Then up among the skylarks, the snipe and the stones, and Keira playing expertly with spears, and getting herself into the role, very carefully and respectfully on top of one the stones. What a dramatic interpretation, absolutely fantastic and perfect for the role. Keira is a delight to chat with, bounce ideas off and to make amazing images for stories. Half way through, and back to the “studio” for different images and again, she threw herself into the scenes with great skill and understanding. She is a superlative model with great enthusiasm, concentration and determination. I cannot recommend her highly enough, she radiates a love of her career, making art and working with new ideas. Thank you Keira for making the stories and ideas come alive.

I'm not sure how many shoots I've had with Keira but the real answer is lots but yet not enough, because she is a joy to work with and spend time with too. Just simply one of the best personages to have a shoot with, obviously highly professional and creative, as others in her references will testify.

On this last escapade we managed to have a weekend shoot on a work shop hosted by Photoclassic and she was always up for some capers and shenanigans of the shooty sort which made the event fun and productive.

Even though she was working with other models she still had her own style and used it to work as a group in a team scenario, adaptable and flexible and always open to ideas...plus adventurous.

She has the ability to change her poses to whatever situations are needed, albeit portrait, fashion, nude etc etc. A hallmark of a top model with bundles of energy, fun and a penchant for funky wellies and large overcoats.

If you haven't worked with Keira yet then you should seriously be reevaluating your photography and get with action. Highly recommended by me and a discerning group of educated Haggi!

Keira is an absolutely brilliant model. However, if you have high blood pressure or any heart related problems, be aware that this lady could be a danger to your health. 😁

There is no stopping this girl. Climbing trees or walls, wading over rivers and hanging from rocks, nothing deters her. If there is a photo opportunity to be had, she will right in there. Poses just flow with consummate ease.

She has more clothes than Primark. You'll never run out of outfits to choose from. (be aware if you're carrying her suitcase/suitcases)

Keira is one of the best models I have ever worked with. Bright, fun, intelligent and professional. Point the camera at her and she exudes class.

Time just runs away from you when shooting with this girl.

I wholeheartedly recommend Keira to every photographer out there.

I look forward to working with you again.

Candy Heart

I had the surprise pleasure of working with the lovely Keira yesterday after another photographer stopped by to my studio with her. They were both very kind to let me shoot too which delighted me and I'm so happy with the shots.

Keira is a brilliant model, she has a very beautiful expressive face and wow she can make her body do crazy shapes! Really great to chat with and spend time with this lovely girl.

Absolutely 100% recommend, never miss an opportunity to work with Keira labelled she is blooming brilliant.

Thank you Keira, it was so lovely to meet you and work with you. Cx

Keira Lavelle you are totally amazing. Comms were good but a mistake on my part meant the venue I had in mind turned out not to exist.

No problem - after a short stopover at Costa for refreshment, we just as you were, dropped in unannounced at Claire's - Candy Heart - who welcomed us in for a shoot there. Keira you have earned my total respect for being a total trooper throughout, by remaining cool and unfazed, and taking it all in as a normal day of a model.

Keira Lavelle is a true professional and very creative. This young lady is at the very top of the game, and you only need to look at results for proof. Her approach is assertive as she wastes no time on delivery on what the photographer expects, with a confidence and ease that has been developed over many years, and still remains new and fresh. I loved her at lib changes in characterisation as she plays the role she creates. In all a very special lady, who lives for her craft and has no equal. You only need to look into her eyes to see laying before you, this romantic bohemian personality dying to get out, and take on the whole world.

Keira you remain my top recommendation. It would be an understatement to say you live your life with a passion, and I was lucky to share but a fleeting moment.

I look forward to a time we will meet again. Special Regards - Henry

Another keira shoot more of the same amazing stuff bout all i think we need to say now!

I had an excellent shoot with Keira today in Edinburgh. I really don't know why I have not worked with her before now because she is truly superb.

Arrived well on time with an extensive wardrobe (almost literally!) absolutely professional.

However, it is her ability to model, create shapes and give your images a wow factor that really impresses.

A great person to work with too.

Highly recommended.
