Keira recently modelled at the studio, first for 4 hours and then a further 3 hours for a portrait workshop. Totally excellent experience from start to finish as usual. She is highly organised, punctual and very friendly. Her posing was creative and excellent, and her sense of fun and humour was very welcome! Everyone got fabulous pictures and she is always a real pleasure to work with. I had worked with Keira before so I knew exactly how good she is, the other photographers on the workshop hadn't are were totally blown away by her modelling ability. Even after a gruelling 4 hours she pulled out pose after pose for another 3, very impressive. I always love working with Keira and look forward to the next shoot, I can't recommend her highly enough!

Worked with Keira for the first time last week and will definitely book her again. Keira is friendly, very professional and hard working. She was happy to work with my thoughts and ideas and contribute with her own creative input and posing skills to achieve some great images. I would recommend Keira to any photographer.

Another really enjoyable shoot with Keira. She was full of ideas as always, and came with a simply huge bag full of outfits (some of them unique because she made them herself) and the most positive attitude you'll ever meet! Despite the cold weather, she was happy to do a short set outdoors before move indoors for the rest of the shoot. She has a huge range of poses too. An absolute joy from beginning to end.

I honestly can't praise Keira or recommend her enough, she endures so much working with me. Wild mountainsides, freezing lochs,100 year old bridge,trekking through a forest, being suspended in a dungeon to very nearly ending in a cell for real, late night street fashion to erotica, nothing phased her. A succession of high 5s, excited eeks and her never say enough attitude to giving her photographer the ultimate opportunity for a shot, crazy? Work with and make your own mind up.

She's a perfect house guest, great company, chats about all and anything, but I do have to give a warning for you. Don't ever beat her at chess, the tongue lashing her "team" got has to be seen. So 250 green teas, 11 looks / locations, and a Double Decker later our latest adventure closes, but memories live on. Thank you Keira, friend and muse.

What can I say about Keira that has not already been said a thousand times; Keira is wonderful! A true professional model, great fun, undaunted by cold conditions, every shot is just right she just never lets you down - brilliant. This was my first shoot with Keira and hopefully not my last. Well done Keira!

I must apologize for the 4 week delay in posting this, as holidays got in the way. Keira was superbly creative, emotive and innovative and was not put off at all by the dreich drizzly morning weather, nor the cold northwesterly wind of the afternoon. She was enthusiastic and absolutely professional all through. She showed an artistic steadfastness, insisting on retakes until she was sure that the images matched what I thought was needed, adding a bit more each time to be certain she was giving the right mood or action. Many of the images would not have been as powerful without her imagination, she is a superb collaborator. Her great sense of humour and inquisitive nature made her perfect company for the day, which passed all too quickly. Thankyou Keira for a truly inspirational day, full of fun and art. I really hope to work with her again, as I have several projects in mind she would be perfect for.

If you can collect the Keira from the station.

If you are prepared for the coat with spotty wellies,

If you are able to pull two wardrobes on wheels.

If you can talk the taxi driver into taking you and The Keira half way across town with the luggage of a small migrating country,

And sit atop it while whizzing through traffic,

And unload it into the middle of the street ignoring the looks and children running.

And yet still the Keira looks glamorous in the outfit of bag ladies.

If you can dream of the perfect shoot.

If you can hold a camera in the face of the Keira wearing more sunglasses on her face than a ray-ban hacked email.

If the make-up skilled painted half robot face alien from outer space doesn't send you into orbit.

If a wig made of straws interwoven into the blonde mane of the Keira is only a lighting quandary,

And yet to make green tea,

and to chat about everything and mothing

to make the seconds, minutes, hours and time pass like two old friends meeting in a park,

with memory cards filling and you can attempt to keep up with the Keira's imagination.

and to make memories of the moments captured in the Keira's poses

Keira - Yours is the Earth and everything that is in it.

If you can wish your friend a sad goodbye at the station, already aching for the next fun filled, crazy experience, of a photoshoot

and which is more - you'll be a photographer my son.

I had the pleasure to work with Keira Lavelle during her recent Glasgow weekend shoot with Aurora Violet.

This was my second shoot with Keira and it was so effortless. The quality of the poses that both girls produced was superb. Keira is a beautiful, crazy model with a work ethos that is second to none.

I can certainly recommend Keira to all photographers. I look forward to working with her again on her next tour north of the border.

I had the opportunity to shoot Keira on her recent trip to Glasgow with Aurora. She's a wonderful model, not only because she's gorgeous, but because she's able to take ideas and sculpt them into real. Although a short shoot (my fault), it was enjoyable and I would certainly book her again if we are in the same area.

Looking forward to working again with you, Keira!

Aurora Violet

A wee ray of sunshine, Keira is a wonderfully passionate, inspiring model, truly dedicated to her craft.

I organised and hosted (alongside my partner Stuart), a full day duo shoot day starring Keira and myself at a beautiful 3 bedroom townhouse in the west end of Glasgow. This was my first time working with this little firecracker and I'm so happy to have had her on board for this event.

Keira's pre shoot communications were excellent and allowed me peace of mind to concentrate on the rest of the organising that was required for an awesome day of shooting.

Full of ideas and armed with a huge range of outfits and accessories, her energy, enthusiasm and rapport with everyone involved with this event made our time working together a joy.

It was no surprise to find that Keira's versatility as a model and understanding of each photographers concepts enabled us to flow effortlessly from one pose to the next, resulting in some spectacular images being captured by all the photographers that took part in this event.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with this vibrant, dynamic woman and I can't wait to shoot with her again.

I could not recommend Keira highly enough. If you have the opportunity to work with this talented and extremely hard working model then make sure you don't miss it.

Thank you hunny. Until next time,

I take this opportunity to praise both Keira Lavelle and Aurora Violet for putting on what can only be described as an amazing Event. The Event lasted for an unbroken three hours and staged in a Glasgow Apartment. It went smoothly due to the dedication and professionalism of both girls, in this case performing as a duo.

I have shot with Aurora before but this is my first shoot with Keira. She is very beautiful girl, and has a kind and giving personality to match. She made you feel that you were the most important person there and stopped at nothing to produce a beautiful performance with changes and poses to ensure that you got really great shots.

The day was overcast weather, conditions that I really love, as it produces the most beautiful skin tone, and soft shadows. The duo initially posed on a piano in lingerie taking full advantage of the window light spilling in, producing great lighting when balanced with fill in flash. Keira looked awesome and really does have an amazing body.

From the living room we moved to the large bedroom. Portraits in various dresses were done first, and then the duo stripped and performed au natural through a set of poses. Keira is very natural and confident and enjoys what she does. There is a certain freedom and artistic expressionism that just flows from her that is so natural. I adore girls that do Fine Art, and as in Keira's case the barriers if any, just fall away and she comes alive with the most beautiful poses.

I was totally blown away, and produced my best work to date which can be seen on PP.

From me, I would totally recommend Keira to all photographers, and am definitely planning to work with her again. What really makes her exceptional is her dedication, and her love for her work, and again, the ability to produce perfect results.

Keira from me, you do what it says on the tin with a love and passion not seen before and I thank you for a wonderful time.

Had my first shoot with Keira yesterday (certainly plan to have more) it was amazing, such an extremely friendly and outgoing model, with such great enthusiasm.

She brought a huge selection of outfits with her, also brought my ideas to the shoot than I did. We were able to have a epic, long and very fun shoot together. It was a highly productive day with this fantastic model/actress.

I lost track how many times I've worked with my dear friend Keira so far.

This time it was for a full week together with Renaissance on Crete.

As always Keira has been a fantastic model, full of energy, enthusiasm and ideas.

We shot a vast amount of stunning images, both solo as well as duo work with Renaissance. We covered boudoir as well as art nude in the beautiful landscape of Crete.

I can highly recommend Keira, and I'm looking forward to working with her again in Scotland next Easter.

This was my second time working with Keira, and my first on a week-long photographic holiday organised by her. I already knew Keira to be an outstanding model, who produces unique poses and puts wonderful expression into her work. I was also very impressed, however, by her faultless organisation and delivery of the holiday.

Keira's energy and enthusiasm appear to be limitless. Not only was her modelling superb throughout the week, but she handled all the logistics and other details extremely professionally. This involved making sure that everyone was well fed and watered and that they had everything they needed to make the trip a big success. She also stepped forward quickly to sort out any minor issues that arose, making sure they did not impact at all on the holiday.

Keira is very talented and experienced with her posing, and is prepared to take whatever opportunities present themselves. This included stops at some beautiful locations that she had painstakingly rersearched and planned, as well as some ad hoc opportunities that were simply too good to pass by.

I have absolutely no hesitation in highly recommending Keira both as a model, and also in regard to the specialist photographic holidays that she organises and leads.

Fantasy Dabblers

This was our second Artsvoyageintl trip with these lovely ladies (Keira Lavelle and Renaissance1986) and they did not disappoint! This time we went to Crete and a mountain hideaway. Keira did all the driving and was very proficient at getting the car through all sorts of obstacles. Modelling wise Keira and Renaissance are fantastic from fashion to art nude to crazy zombies and black brides. Full of amazing energy and patient and helpful with photographers. Such a lot of fun ideas and great locations. It was a terrific trip and we are already booked on our next one (or two….)!

RichsImages

Wow, Keira is so full of energy and as always is totally committed to getting the shot. At times my heart was in my mouth, but we were rewarded with stunning images. I finally got to shoot with Keira on a 121 shoot, having previously worked with her on a group event.

Keira is totally professional and full of ideas, with a wide variety of poses and shapes, with nothing too much trouble.

I have no reservations in totally recommending that you shoot with Keira, and I look forward to working with her again in the future

It took two years to finally get to work with Keira due to schedule clashes whenever she was in the region but I can honestly say it was well worth the wait.

Communication beforehand was excellent. Friendly and professional throughout, Keira was happy with the ideas I’d come up with beforehand, even expanding on them. and she most certainly delivered. This lady created amazing poses from first shot to last, knows her lighting and knows how to use it. I don’t think there are any shots I couldn’t use. My regrets are simple: my scheduling conflicts prior to finally working with her and I should have booked more time. Both of which I aim to remedy the next time I work with her.

Redstone Photography

Our second shoot and as with the first Keira is quite simply awesome. Full of energy and enthusiasm always happy and fun to work with. Communication prior to the shoot was excellent again and the shoot was arranged in no time. Bags full of outfits and make up is on point as always. The four hours we booked flew over and we created some amazing images. There is literally no negatives to working with Keira who always puts 100% in to every look and pose.

Keira comes highly recommended (again) and I look forward to the next shoot very soon :-)

This was my third shoot with Keira, and as previously it was a fun and fruitful collaboration.

As always, Keira bring loads of energy, positivity and creativity to a shoot - this makes her extremely easy to work with and a pleasure to photograph. She moves effortless from pose to pose and needs minimal direction - she will come up with all sorts of weird and wonderful ideas with the minimum of props or suggestions…just say ‘go’, keep pressing the shutter and enjoy!

This was also the third time that I have hosted Keira on her travels - she is a great house guest, friendly, respectful and very easy to get on with (as long as she doesn’t expect me to join in her early morning workout routine!). She always arrives on time and despite living out of a suitcase for large chunks of the time, her comms are always good and she keeps you updated on travel arrangements and shooting plans. If you can help a model out by hosting them when they’re on tour, I would definitely recommend it, and Keira certainly deserves your support.

If you’re looking for a model with passion, talent and a great attitude, then I’d definitely recommend Keira.

We arranged a shoot at short notice during Keira’s Scotland tour. Keira arrived early with two huge suitcases and a bag full of stuff. We worked through a series of sets and ideas and had a very enjoyable and successful afternoon working together. She is a bubbly, vibrant and extremely talented model. She is also a charming and intelligent young lady who was great company. If you have the chance to work with Keira, take it.
