Rawpics Studio

Kevin had organised a remote shot with Angel Black here at the studio . He had prepared the shoot well in adavace , sorting out a dress and theme with Angel, prior to the shoot.

We hooked up on the internet and discussed the theme and the lighting required. Kevin gave great direction to the studio and the Model. he never rushed anyone, he spoke with great knowledge on how he woud like the lighting and we adjusted everything to how he wanted it.

Although he was in America and we are based in the UK there was no time delay at all and the shoot ran smoothly.

Kevin was 100% polite at all times and communicated well with everyone and with our combined Humor we had a great shoot.

The images and theme of the day worked perfectly and some amazing images were produced.

It is without hesiattion I can highly recommend Kevin 100%

I've worked with Kevin countless times remotely and always have so much fun. He's got a great eye for photography and communicates slowly and clearly. This time we shot at Rawpics and he knew what he wanted to achieve and worked tirelessly to get the results he wanted.

Kevin was patient throughout and relayed information to John and Rod for them to act accordingly.

The shoot went smoothly and Kevin was also accomodating of a slight time change. He was, as usual, perfectly polite, professional and friendly.

Thankyou for another wonderful shoot.

Another sensational remote shoot with Kevin!

Kevins precomms as always are very efficient and allow me to fully understand the concept we are trying to create which makes packing so much easier.

On the shoot as always Kevin is fantastic at getting the shot, he has a keen eye for capturing a remarkable image and during our shoot no time was wasted once he could see we smashed that set we moved onto the next look which lead us to capturing so many incredible different looks!

He's great fun to work with is great at allowing me to free pose as well as direction when things need tweaking or he has an idea.

I find we work extremely cohesively together which certainly shows in the images.

As always I would definitely recommend working with him and I look forward to working together again !

Kevin was once again fantastic to work with during a recent remote location shoot. His pre shoot communications were fabulous and the shoot was organised in a few messages. He was super helpful with directions and provided a great idea ahead of time to really help with the packing process.

During the shoot itself, he was patient, professional and friendly and we jumped straight into the shoot and worked together to get great shots. Kevin was mindful of the weather and didn't mind the frequent heat pitstops. He's very confident with his lighting, happily having John adjust as and when needed and has a great eye for photography which is clear to see in his stunning images. I am still amazed at Kevin's creativity and the fact he's able to do it all thousands of miles away, blows my mind.

I'd happily recommend Kevin and look forward to shooting with him again.

Thankyou for an epic shoot!

I've worked as Kevin's remote hands on a few occasions and once again it was a pleasure to do. His most recent idea was a bridal themed shoot in the woods and from start to finish he had a clear plan in his head and knew what he wanted to achieve. He's great at directing and knows what he wants but is equally happy for suggestions.

He didn't heistate to direct me wherever he wanted the lighting and was good at communicating any camera angle changes.

Kevin is genuinely a joy to work with and I'd happily do so again. Absolutely recommended!

I have had the joy of working with Kevin numerous times over the last few years and most recently at my new home via a remote shoot. I love how creative Kevin is, even though there are thousands of miles between us, Kevin has the ability to see the space we are working in and direct the shoot and to create original thought and imagery.

Thank you Kevin for you patience, great skill, wonderful company and for sharing your artistic mind with us, both myself and Kieran always look forward to our shoots with you.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Kevin to anyone shooting remotely!

Thanks for another great shoot! Caz :)

Sensational shoot with Kevin via remote at PGD.

We worked on one of Kevins legendary warrior themes. He see's a vision and it surpasses all expectations, he makes true art and not only that he's a pleasure to work with.

I would most certainly recommend any model to work with him and can't wait till we get to work together again.

Angel Black UK

Kevin is a top tier photographer, and the fact he's able to do it all remotely is honestly astounding. Firstly, his pre shoot communications are immensely good, providing an in depth idea of the shoot plan as well as listing potential outfits, accessories, hair & makeup. Our latest shoot was a bad bride concept, and Kevin was so incredibly understanding about my wedding dress and treated it with such caution, shooting it in a truly gorgeous light.

Secondly, Kevin is polite, professional and very easy to talk to. He's very good at explaining what he wants and directing the shoot so he gets his intended shots. Kevin's ability as a photographer is astounding, but the fact he's thousands of miles away and still able to produce such fantastic results really should speak for itself.

Kevin's got a keen eye for photography and knows what he's aiming for, and when something doesn't work, he'll adapt. He adjusted his settings constantly as we battled the changing sunlight and he worked with us to achieve the best shots with the direct sunlight.

Kevin's ideas never cease to amaze me and I always find them such fun to undertake. This was part 1 of a 2 part shoot, next time the bride goes crazy! ;)

Thankyou for a truly wonderful shoot!

I had a fantastic shoot with Kevin, and despite technical issues the first time, we tried again and created some fantastic stuff! We had plenty of ideas set out, and it was very organised and chill, but very productive. Kevin is fantastic to chat to, loved the whole shoot. Very much recommended!

Olga Solo

I had a very unexpected last-minute shoot with Kevin. Pre-communication was great; I was provided with all necessary information about the outfits and the idea. Also, Kevin was flexible and happy to adjust to my schedule. It was a remote shoot, but working with Kevin was so easy and fun! He had so many amazing creative ideas that perfectly suited the style and era he chose. It was very interesting to bring them to life! He gave me the freedom to choose the outfits and poses, but he also created really cool sets and lighting. In a couple of weeks, I was very pleased to receive some edited pictures that looked very creative and just gorgeous! I am very happy that we managed to work together! It was a really amazing shoot with absolutely stunning results! Thank you so much, and I am looking forward to working with you again!

I always love working with Kevin and this time was no different. He opted to take part remotely in the Kink Event Weekend ran by myself, Caitlyn J & J Black Photographic. As usual his pre shoot communications were excellent and the shoot was arranged and booked very quickly.

This time he didn't share a mood board but had expressed he was looking for particular lighting. On the day he directed John (as his hands) to move the lighting where he wanted it and happily played with his settings until he got what he desired. Kevin was clear in his delivery and communicated it with us well. This meant at the start of the call when we discussed ideas, we got through all of them in the time.

Kevin is, as always, polite, professional and super easy to get along with. Conversation easily flowed and he was happy to let Caitlyn and I do our thing, occasionally suggesting something or making us aware of lighting adjustments.

The back of camera shots looked epic and a few of the edits I've seen so far look even better!

It's always a pleasure to work with Kevin and I would happily recommend him to other creatives. He's a fantastic photographer and one that has really aced remote shooting - he can direct well, adapt quickly if necessary and is clear in his communication.

Thankyou for another wonderful shoot and I look forward to seeing the images surface!

I've been aware of Kevin and his work for some time as he's worked remotely with Angel & I on a few occasions. The most recent was a Kink Event Weekend where I was offering lighting support and Kevin took part remotely.

I acted as his hands throughout the shoot as well which with Kevin's fantastic directing ability went smoothly. He knew what he wanted to achieve and directed me well to get the lighting just as he wanted. After we nailed that, he was happy for the models to pose freely, offering a suggestion here and there throughout.

Kevin's editing should also be mentioned because his post processing is truly great, the back of camera shots were great but the edits are phenomenal!

Great to work with you again, Kevin!

I had my first shoot with Kevin this week (remotely through PGD Studio in Leicester), he contacted me with a few ideas to choose from and pre comms were great, we emailed back and forth about outfits and makeup etc beforehand.

We mainly worked on his 'warrior' themed shots which gives a lot of options and allowed me to get creative and messy with some facepaint! I'm also always happy to do shoots that allow for a lot of expression and drama, which this certainly did! It was a lot of fun!

Kevin was so great to work with, full of ideas and happy to go with the flow if things weren't working as planned.

We got some really great shots and a wide variety of stuff shot during our shoot, I really look forward to seeing the images!

Highly recommended :)

Another fantastic remote shoot with Kevin!

I am constantly blown away by working with Kevin, his ideas, and creativity and I’m just grateful that we have remote technology that has allowed us to make it all possible!

It’s super refreshing to work with somebody who you can just ‘go for it’ with, and try things you wouldn’t usually.

This makes viewing the results so enjoyable, and proud.

Kevin is a wonderful creative and it’s always a pleasure to spend time with him over our remote sessions.

Thank you for having me, and for continuing to book me.

Absolute legend!

The Apex Studio (Telford)

Always a pleasure to work with Kevin & this time was no exception, being a 6 hour remote shoot with Ashleigh Rae.

Kevin always has lots of creative ideas & this also extends to props & lighting.

Kevin is very easy to work with, friendly & knows what he wants from a shoot.

I have forgotton just how many remote shoots we have had together now, but each & everyone of them is different & very creative.

Kevin is always polite & gets on very well with his models

We very much look forward to the next one & I have no hesitation in recommending him to other models & photographers.

Kevin came back to Basford (remotely) to shoot with Cariad Celis.

All pre comms with Kevin were great and he was really easy to organise the shoot with once again.

I would have no hesitation to reccomend Kevin and I hope to work with him again here at Basford soon!! Thank you Kevin!!

I had a first remote shoot at PGD studio in Leicester with Kevin this week.

Pre communication was clear and spot on. Provided useful and beautiful moodboards.

On the day we connected through live video chat and his communication was very clear. He knew exactly what he wanted in terms of lights, set up, outfit etc. He was giving me great directions in order to get the best shots. Patient and fun to work with. I truly enjoyed working with him and creating different warriors themes. It was great to create the different look and posing getting into character.

I can’t wait to see the final results. I would recommend Kevin without doubts to any creatives and I would be very happy to work with him again!

Thank you Kevin for the great shoot :)

We have worked with Kevin on remote shoots at Apex studio multiple times now & as always, he is a pleasure to work with.

He always has some great concepts to shoot & it's great to watch these develop throughout the shoot.

Kevin is very easy to talk to & works really well with his models. He is very patient whilst waiting for model & set changes & this makes the shoot work really well.

As always, a bigs thumbs up from me & look forward to the next one :)

Another and another remote shoot with Kevin - this time during my studio day at Rococo Farm. Kevin has recently started a new 'Missing Pieces' project and thought my look paired with Rococo Farm would lend itself nicely to the theme, which it certainly did!

Kevin's pre shoot communications are exceptional - he detailed everything in the initial message so within a few messages the shoot was booked. He decided on the items he wanted to shoot, sent the links and then I ordered the items - everything arrived on time and worked wonderfully for the shoot, paired with a few of my own items too.

He's a wonderfully creative individual and someone who I truly enjoy working with. He's very patient with internet lag and never complains about it. His eye to detail is exquisite and I always know the shots are going to be phenomenal.

Thankyou for yet another wonderful shoot idea, it was a pleasure to work with you on this theme!

Highly recommend Kevin!

Cariad Celis organised a remote shoot with Kevin here at Basford Hurst Cottage.

It was lovely to speak to Kevin briefly before the shoot, he is a wonderful man and clearly a very talented photographer. He worked well with Cariad to produce many incredible images.

We would recommend Kevin and hope to host him for another remote shoot one day soon!! Thanks Kevin!!
