I had a very pleasant day with this lovely lady who pandered to my every request beautifully, her posing was 2nd to none and we got some fabulous results. She had a great choice of clothing , I was so spoilt for choice and chose quite a few sets to try out. Good pre-comms, and a great shoot altogether. Thanks a million, Kirsty, best wishes Jann.

Simply, every shoot gets better than the last one.

And the first one - five or six years ago - was pretty wonderful.

Go on - book Kirsty. You know you need to!

I had a lovely first shoot with Kirsty this weekend after responding to one of her casting calls. Communication beforehand was excellent and kirsty was a great host with the kettle on on arrival! An excellent model with lots of experience so hardly any direction was needed from myself. Beautiful fluid posing and an excellent selection of outfits made for a great shoot day. I'd highly recommend Kirsty and hope to work with her again soon 😊

I've admired Kirsty's work for quite a while, and I was glad to finally get the chance to work with her.

Pre-shoot comms were great and Kirsty showed up on time, well prepared and ready to shoot.

Kirsty is a gorgeous model with a unique look, who is able to pose effortlessly without direction.

I had a few unusual ideas I wanted to try out, and Kirsty couldn't have been more helpful or enthusiastic.

The shoot just flew by, Kirsty is easy to talk to and we had a lot of fun and captured some amazing images, what more can you ask for?

I can't recommend Kirsty highly enough!

Had my first shoot with Kirstie today.

Kirstie was kind enough to host the shoot from her home.

We worked through a number of sets using her front room and bedroom.

A really lovely person to work with. Very confident and competent in her work. Poses easily and incorporates direction if/when given.

I hope to be shooting with here again soon and recommend her highly.

Thanks

Excellent shoot with Kirsty at her home and well worth the two and a half hour drive. Kirsty was most welcoming and clearly at the top of her game as we worked through several scenarios. She is a delight to talk to and to listen too, in fact at one stage I asked her to keep talking enthusiastically about one of her subjects because it was generating a whole range of lovely expressions which I duly captured.

Had a fantastic first shoot with Kirsty May last Saturday!

She made me a cuppa on arrival and we shot different outfits at different levels. Kirsty May was very friendly, chatty and moved from pose to pose with direction only needed if I was looking for a particular pose.

A very enjoyable 3 hours and I hope we can shoot again in the future.

Very highly recommended!

I have been waiting ever so patiently to shoot Kirsty for a little while so when this latest casting came about, I was happy that both our diaries matched. All I can say is she was worth the wait. Extremely friendly and professional. She is very easy to get on with and has lovely personality to match. Her experience shines through as she so effortlessly moves from one pose to another.

What drew me to shooting with Kirsty was her energy and portrayal of each character. Throughout the shoot she took my direction so well and bought my vision to life. She remained friendly, and approachable throughout offering ideas of her own to elevate or add to the shoot. Loved her enthusiasm and her approach. She was very quick in being able to change outfits especially towards the end to maximise time and complete as many looks as possible.

Thanks again Kirsty, I look forward to the next shoot!

Arranged quite a last minute shoot with KIrsty, very straightforward with good comms. Kirsty was very welcoming and we discussed ideas and concepts before shooting. Due to the nature of the shoot it was a mix of different styles and genres and the shoot went very well - a wide array of shots were obtained and due to her ability there were a range of expressions and posing styles covered.

Very capable and professional - would highly recommend.

Had my 3rd shoot with Kirsty recently. We shot at her place again and did a nice range of themes and poses. It's quite amazing what can be achieved in her home! I always feel welcome when working with her, and her wealth of experience always shines through, making working with her all the more pleasant. I will always recommend her to others, she is simply fantastic :)

I had a great shoot with Kirsty yesterday. She was warm and welcoming on arrival and a pleasure to get on with throughout the shoot.

Kirsty tolerated me getting to grips with new equipment and we shot a wide range of photos, as expected from her experience and portfolio she was at ease and highly capable with everything we did. Throughout the shoot I left her to get on and pose freely more than I often do which was a help to me with what I was wanting to achieve, but she was also happy with my input on the posing when I gave it.

Highly recommended and I would happily shoot with her again. Many thanks!!

I met Kirsty May at a networking event at ARB Studios in Longton. Her time was very much in demand, so I was delighted at managing to shoot a few frames with her. Some of the poses were to simulate dance and even though Kirsty admitted to not being able to, she moved freely from pose to pose. Before the evening ended, I discussed an idea for a shoot, so will be booking Kirsty, something I can certainly recommend other photographers to do.

I worked briefly with Kirsty at a group shoot/networking event at ARB studios in Longton on Sunday, July 28th 2024. We worked on a music theme, and Kirsty was able to move effortlessly between ideas. I would recommend working with her.

I had a fashion shoot with Kirsty May at Shapeshifter Studio yesterday.

This was my first shoot this year as due to injury I’ve not been able to do any shoots up until now.

I sent Kirsty some basic info prior to the shoot and she arrived well-prepared, on time with a huge case full of clothing.

As I’d not done any photoshoots for quite a while, prior to the shoot I was worried about getting my lighting spot-on and reacquainting myself with the camera and lighting kit. Kirsty was easy to get on with and this provided a pleasant and easy-going working environment so I got back into things much easier than expected.

Kirsty was easygoing, patient and modelled excellently throughout. This enabled me to concentrate on the photography side of things. Even though this was a very basic fashion shoot she was enthusiastic and worked hard throughout the shoot.

Outfit and make-up changes were done very quickly and efficiently as we moved through each of the three sets. On each of the sets, Kirsty was very confident, posed extremely well and was able to work without direction.

We reviewed the images during each of the sets and this allowed me to make adjustments to my set-up as required.

I’m very happy with the images we created and I look forward to being able to shoot with Kirsty May again.

Many Thanks.

Kirsty is a model who knows both sides of the camera, which is a definite advantage. She has a natural posing style, she understands working with both natural light and flash, and she is a pleasure to talk with during the shoot. Pre-shoot comms were great, I was offered a drink on arrival at her home, and the shoot went very smoothly. Definitely recommended!

I had my first shoot with Kirsty last weekend in London. She is a great model and she is a very nice and friendly person and I felt very comfortable during the shoot.

We had some lighting problems because the hotel room was a little bit dark but despise of that we got nice images.

Kirsty is a very pro model and she can follow directions and also she can pose on her own.

I do recommend her and I hope we can work together again.

Completed my fourth shoot with Kirsty. As before she was brilliant to work with and very easy to get on with too.

A top model.

I'm sorry to her she's going to be taking on much less work in the future. Thanks for the shoots so far and will definitely jump at the chance to do so again in the future.

So I recently had my second shoot with Kirsty (not long after the first). This time we changed things up a bit, and I invited her to my home studio for some classic art nude and a duo shoot.

This girl continues to impress me. Not only is she well skilled in her craft, but she is incredibly easy to be around, laid back, a good laugh yet a consummate professional. We managed to produce some incredible images thanks to her intuitive nature, needing very little direction from me.

I am already excited about what future projects we will get realized in the future.

Thank you again Kirsty, you were an absolute legend!
