I had a really enjoyable shoot with Keira yesterday morning at The Little Chelsea Studio in Eastbourne.

She is a very professional, bubbly, happy and friendly person. She arrived by car and bought along a number of cases full of clothes which we hardly got round to using but always good to know that they were there! She poses well without direction but responds well when given. We started with some basic ideas of what we wanted to achieve and then let the sets and clothes inspire us where to go next. The 4 hours just shot by – always the sign of a good and productive shoot, in my opinion.

Keira is a talented model and is highly recommended. Arrange a shoot with her – you won’t regret it. I would definitely try to work with her again if the opportunity presents itself.

I had another great shoot with Keira in October. This was the second time that I had worked with her and, again, it was such an enjoyable experience. She is full of energy, works really hard, moves from pose to pose effortlessly and generally just makes the whole experience stress free for the photographer. On top of that she has a great personality!

We shot for 4 hours and tried a variety of lighting setups and Keira worked really hard throughout. She made a really positive contribution to the shoot and I was very pleased with the results.

I thoroughly recommend her.

Thanks Keira

What can I say? I've just finished a short shoot with Keira at Studio2. And what a shoot it was!

I wanted to experiment a bit and try out some ideas. Keira took on each experiment with total dedication and a dizzying, energetic enthusiasm. The results are far better than I expected and I cannot wait to get editing them.

An absolute pleasure to work with. Totally professional, full of ideas and great fun. I really hope we get to work together again someday. (And hopefully for longer).

Thank you for an awesome shoot Keira :)

This was a shoot with Helen Stephens and Keira. They were both wonderful!

When I arrived, a few minutes early, Keira was putting the final touches to her perfectly-applied makeup. She was friendly and easy to work with throughout - a joy to photograph. Without direction, she is adept at creating distinct and visually attractive poses. She's also exceptionally intelligent - beauty and brains.

If you have the opportunity to shoot Keira, son't miss it! As so many others have done, I heartily recommend her.

Keira with Helen Stephens on a combined art nude shoot. Wow.

Keira is still a tomboy. We set our first half of the shoot in a pine forest. Both models great performers great posers.

Before Helen and I could settle Keira, naked, was up the nearest pine tree. My first experience of shooting anyone naked in a tree.

I suggest you shoot with both of these models. Great fun, great professionals

Keira was chosen to be the female subject of a part workshop / part tutorial / part shared shoot with Carl Grim, Monsieur E and Keira - designed to broaden my experience and comfort zone. It would be among other things my first male / female nude duo shoot.

Keira's reputation as a gorgeous, bubbly, adventurous model; and was someone I had wanted to shoot with for some time.

On first meeting we quickly fell into easy conversation that set us off well for a lovely shoot. She is bright, attractive, and irrepressibly effervescent - however as soon as the camera is turned on her she switches instantly to the highly professional model she is - it is a joy to watch her literally spring into pose.

She also proved every bit the adventurous miss clambering over and hanging off Monsieur E - throwing herself enthusiastically into achieving what is asked of her and more. While she appears fearless when clambering, it is also clear that Keira takes a practiced and measured approach to what she does in that regard.

Keira is a joy to work with, so I have no hesitation recommending her.

I much enjoyed our shoot Keira, thank you for all that you did and I hope to repeat sometime.

Monsieur E

Highly attractive, professional, fun, legend,

These are the four words That first come to mind when I think about my shoot with Keira.

Had been talking for a while finally managed to get a shoot together. We were already friends so were comfortable with each other just had not shot together.

Attractive, Stunning physique, showed well especially in bodyscape shots.

Professional. This was a indoor workshop with and the poses, not all were easy some very adverturous just got on with it and with a smile of her face.

Fun, I had a great time with Keira.

Legend, pretty much all round legend.

Pretty much as mad as me, very funny, intelligent, giggly lady.

Seriously, people need to work with models like Keira This is the reason I model, to meet people like this who are amazing.

I seriously hope we get to shoot again, thanks for a great day. Xx

Keira is highly recommended by me! Very creative, very willing to do what it takes to get the picture. Top professional model.

I had the great pleasure of working with Keira on Oct 15th. Being my 1st professional model she made the shoot work effortlessly. With her wonderful professionalism, cheerful demeanour, and tireless attitude she was a joy to work with. No matter the set-up she went along with my ideas and suggested loads of her own. She poses well both with, and without direction. She could change make-up depending on the vision in question. She was great fun to be around and made the day both relaxing and fruitful. Looking forward to working with her next time she's in Ireland. We've even discussed a few ideas already. Anyone thinking of arranging a shoot with Keira I would highly recommend that you do so. All in all she's a joy to work with.

I am still relatively new to "Art Nude" photography but am starting to get some decent results thanks to terrific models who, even if my skills (or lack of) did not lead to good results immediately, were all kind, patient and, yes, fantastic people to work with. They all taught me a lot.

A few weeks ago I worked with Kitty Quinzell. Stunning, kind, intelligent. I had a theme in mind but we were unlucky with the weather. Instead of the planned outdoor shoot we had to improvise indoors. Even so, we got some really good shots that I still have not finished.

To-day Keira and I were lucky. The weather held and we could work on the fantasy: a "Wild warrior woman". And she was ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT ! Due to the balmy weather there were many more people out than I had expected. Public nudity is still illegal in Ireland, time started to run out and the light was fading but the quick-witted Keira found spots where we could do our shots, even right beside a main road (well, a main road in this country is a cart track in others).

To be absolutely honest: I cannot praise Keira enough, she ranks with the very best. Patient, funny, a body that should be preserved and kept in an art gallery and an inexhaustible amount of enthusiasm. And she is hardy too. By the end of the day it suddenly got really chilly and a strong wind sprang up. Keira will pose uncomplaining even when other people may find it too uncomfortable. And when we were just packing it in, the sun came out. A late autumn sun, golden light. Without being asked, Keira instantly jumped out and posed again. A true professional !

So if you are planning a shoot and Keira is available, do not miss the chance. She won't disappoint, quite the contrary !

Keira is a model I would like to work with again.

Brilliant model to work with, you need to book Keira if you have the opportunity; intuitive, stylish, artistic, sexy, so much energy and sooo... bendy, WOW!!

Managed a short shoot in Dublin, Keira's ability and professionalism made the day; thank you.

Keira is just amazing, on time, the most flexible model I have ever worked with, friendly and great to work with, great with her makeup and can transform her appearance in no time at all

really pushes herself to get that special pose and of course she looks stunning, great skin and the perfect model.

I can't recommend her highly enough, if you get the chance to work with Keira take it.

Oh and I have never seen such a big suitcase of outfits.

You are amazing Keira and I look forward to working with you again soon, highly recommended, thank you the shoot was great.

I was lucky enough to have had a great shoot with the stunning Keira today during her Irish tour! As soon as I met Keira I knew it would be a fun and productive shoot. She is very friendly, extremely professional and full of ideas and capable of posing with or without direction. This is a great benefit for me as I am still relatively inexperienced with working with models and her relaxed and professional approach puts you at ease immediately.

She has the clearest, almost porcelain like skin and the most beautiful expressive eyes you are likely to see! She has an incredibly flexible, well toned body and clearly works out a lot to be able to hold even the most uncomfortable poses for as long as needed.

Keira is an absolute gem and we shot all day and worked through a number of themes and styles but despite the length of the session she was endlessly enthusiastic.

Keira came with a huge suitcase that was nearly as big as she was ;-) with so so many outfits for me to pick from that I was spoilt for choice. She also has no problem with trying new ideas or wacky outfits and despite how silly they might sound she was up for giving them a shot.

I was also very impressed with how quickly she did hair and makeup and how easily she could transform her appearance and of course she looked amazing with each change.

The time went by so quickly I couldn't believe it was time to pack up!

If you haven't shot with Keira, I would implore you to consider her for your next shoot. She is very easy to work with, a mere glance at her port gives you an idea of the fabulous range or styles and looks she is capable of, drop dead gorgeous obviously but more importantly a genuinely really nice person and fun to work with.

I would highly recommend her to any photographer from beginner to experienced.

Thank you so much Keira for a great shoot today.

Keira was a perfect choice for my video shoot - more demanding than a stills shoot in a number of ways but she wasn't fazed by any of it, including a futomomo inversion. Very professional, very creative, and great fun to work with. Highly recommended.

Its difficult to know where to start with praise for the wonderful Keira!!

Like all photographers I was having a long spell of mojo depression and wondering where to go with my photography when out of the blue I read Keira's profile again, something said go for it and so I booked Keira for the day and it was magic!! Communications and arrangements were top class and so friendly, a delight.

Keira arrived early all ready with that lovely happy, positive smile and approach, a ray of sunshine on a dismal day. Amongst many other talents Keira has exceptional make up and hair skills and during the day made many changes to reflect different ideas as we shot different styles.

It was a fabulous day, we shot on location and Keira came up with so many ideas and different looks I thought would be impossible then after lunch it was in the studio and in the garden.

Keira has great posing skills, original ideas and takes a concept and improves on it. From the largest case I have ever seen came an endless range of clothes, lingerie and accessories all perfect for what I had in mind. We experimented a lot and achieved exceptional results, In just six hours I have 6 months of editing! Rarely have I had so many keepers and so much versatility.

Highly intelligent and articulate it was a pleasure to chat extensively as we worked, all of which added to the best day I have had this year.

Thanks exclusively to Keira my mojo has returned, I feel energised and am planning shoots again.

A day to remember, an incredible model with exceptional skills and some of the best images I have had for a very long time, what more can you other thanks....

Thanks Keira!

One of us had a half day shoot with Keira on 3rd October at our home /studio. Because of her energy and imagination, we achieved several hundred shots covering 10 subjects in the 4 hour session. She easily adapted character from fearsome warrior princess to damsel in distress with others in between. She also created a huge number of classic art nude figures for us. It was a very enjoyable and productive session.

It was an unusual shoot for us. It was the first time the one of us who is disabled (including being registered “blind”) has shot alone. Although the two of us have shot with Keira several times previously and she is aware of the disabilities, she had to adapt to unusual ways of working and there was the chance of something wholly unexpected happening. We would like to record our gratitude to her for taking on this unusual situation and for the helpful way she dealt with the day.

I'd shot with Keira before around 2 years ago so when another model had to cancel on me the day before the shoot due to an injury she was one of the first on my list to seek a replacement. Luckily for me she had planned a day off and kindly stepped in to give me someone to wave a camera at :)

Keira was as brilliant as before if not more so as we were making up the shoot plan on the fly with the shoot being arranged at short notice and it was my first trip to the studio so I wasn't sure what to expect.

Keira's portable floorobe plus her boundless energy and enthusiasm as well as slightly daredevil moments made for a very entertaining and productive shoot.

We worked really well together and bounced ideas around to great effect.

Thanks for a great shoot and saving the day, totally recommended as if you needed positive review no.471 to help you make your mind up :p

Had an amazing shoot with Keira - a model said to me recently that I was the best photographer she'd ever worked with. At the risk of upsetting the many models I've worked with previously - I can honestly say Keira is the best model I have worked with.

I wanted shapes and shadows and boy did I get them. Pose after pose - every shot as good (if not better) than the last.

So many great shots and such a delightful model to work with.

I don't really need to say whether I recommend Keira or not - her images speak for themselves. She is extremely versatile - both as a model and in the unbelievable shapes she's able to make with her body. She has so many great images already the pressure is on in keeping up with the standard of her existing work. Hopefully you'll love the images as much as I do and can't wait to shoot with you again.

Thanks for THE most enjoyable shoot I've ever had.

I had the massive pleasure of arranging a 4 hour shoot with Keira at York Photo Studio shooting with Kevin Prime owner and for the end of the session with Lyndon Smith. It was incredibly easy to arrange the shoot, Keira is a joy to communicate with, send details of concept and looks required and, quickly confirmed back the shoot is booked, hurray :-) Equally she is an absolute joy to work with too, she just totally "gets" it then smashes it with pose after pose. What an awesome posing machine she is :-) Figure to die for too and.. she can move from fashion type shots to sensual and edgy erotic in a blink of an eye. Total professional in her approach and very much fun to be around. Very easy to highly recommend, can't believe it took me so long to shoot with her. Thanks very much Keira, just magnificent. Best wishes, Ian :-)

Wow, what can I say that hasn't already been said about this amazing girl. A true professional, her posing skills are second to none, writhing and contorting her body into superb shapes.

She is such a lovely chatty, bubbly person and the time just flew past.

Thanks Keira - you are a beautiful and talented person.

Very highly recommended.
