Wonderful shoot with Kim :) We did a mixture of both boudoir and art nude styles at a gorgeous Dumfriesshire hotel. His pre communication was excellent, was very easy to work with and knew exactly what he wanted to capture. Highly recommended to any creative :) Hopefully we can shoot again sometime soon.

Kim is a really lovely friendly person, very easy to chat to and knows a lot of interesting things. I felt instantly at ease with him. But where his strength really lies is in being able to capture the most beautiful and unforced images of the individual he has in front of him.

He works the light to get the most flattering tones he can and then helps you to find your inner radiance.

This made for a very laid back and fun shoot, I'm really looking forward to seeing the images which looked wonderful on the tethered computer and will most defitely be working with him again if the opportunity arises.

Highly recommended for amateurs and professionals alike.

Kim and I arranged a shoot just outside of Dumfries at a wonderful location. Pre shoot comms were excellent, no email tennis, I knew what to bring, where to go and expect from the shoot from the first email. Fantastic!

Whilst it was my first shoot with Kim it was relaxed and full of good conversation while we worked our way through various sets. Shooting a mix of natural light and flash, Kim demonstrated his camera skills getting some great shots.

Plenty of ideas but happy for model input the shoot flew by & I can happily 100% recommend him to anyone. Thanks again for a lovely day :)

I had my second shoot with Kim last week - a very different set up to last time, both in the theme and in the way we were working.

It was interesting to watch Kim work in a different way in that he was working more to someone else's brief and I can now happily say I would wholeheartedly recommend him both working on his own projects and working to someone else's brief.

He had never ending patience throughout the entire hair and make up process and worked really effectively with a space and props and looks that he hadn't seen before.

Really happy with the pictures I've seen so far!

Highly recommended.

Kim approached me at a networking event recently - I jumped at the chance to work with him along with another great model as well as a textile designer, hairdresser and MUA.

Prior to the shoot, Kim kept me informed and also facilitated plenty of contact with the rest of the team. On the night of the shoot he made sure everyone was comfortable and well looked after and brought flasks of hot drinks and homemade flapjacks. Hurrah!

Kim knew exactly what he wanted, but was respectful throughout and was open to input. Really liking what I saw on the back of the camera.

Highly recommended from me!
