I have just recently had the pleasure of working with Bob from Lightstories.

All pre shoot communications were excellent. Bob was really flexible with timings and locations which made planning a shoot away from home really easy.

Bob was really easy to chat to which made the shoot flow really well so we managed to shoot lots of sets in a short time.

At the end of shoot I was able to have a quick look on the back of the camera at the images we had got, something I really appreciated.

I'm so pleased with the images we created and can't wait to get back the fully edited images.

A great shoot and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bob at Lightstories you won't be disappointed.

Thanks for a great shoot!

I've worked with Bob on a variety of shoots now, including fire and aerial on his one-of-a-kind rig. He's always a pleasure to shoot with, incredibly knowledgeable, professional and helpful with his clear communication and direction throughout. Not only that, his fun and friendly attitude will leave you feeling super confident and relaxed (and his wife Rose's cakes go down a treat too)! The shots he creates are always stunning and with a quick turn around getting images back to you.

I highly recommend Bob and I can't wait to see what ideas we can cook up together for our next shoot!

I had a great shoot with Bob, he was an absolute pleasure to work with. Bob is very welcoming, friendly, professional and made me feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire shoot. He has great communication and is a fantastic photographer with lots of experience. I would highly recommend him to any model!

Would definitely recommend Bob, he was great at communicating beforehand. Happy to go with some of my ideas and also hate his own. Made me feel welcome at his home studio and very professional. Will work with Bob again in the spring/summer for an outdoor shoot . Macy

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Bob twice (so far), and both experiences have been a lot of fun. Bob is incredibly supportive and creates a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere – and his wife’s cakes are a delightful bonus! I’m absolutely thrilled with the final images; they’re stunning, and I received them in no time. I can’t wait for our future collaborations!

This has to be one of my favourite shoots. Bob is extremely professional and knows exactly what he is looking for with his models, concepts and overall styles. It was really fun, informative and challenging. He got me out of my comfort zone in a really positive way and I felt like my confidence grew with the styles we did. I am 19 years old and I have a relatively young looking face for 19... I could pass as younger so getting a photographer who can grasp that late teenager look isn't easy! Bob nailed it I think and I cannot wait to work with him again. Lyric

Had a great shoot with Bob in the Forest. he had great communication before, during and after the shoot.

He gave good direction for the shots he wanted to create while also allowing me to have some input of the shoot, an he offered me some outfit to wear for photoshoot. Bob also offered me a lift as the location was close to my home 😆 (thank you Bob)

He is friendly & have a good sense of humour. It was a relaxed but professional shoot on location

Bob have a good selection of edited images back after the shoot, would work with him again 😊

Beautiful shoot!

An absolutely lovely guy to work with. Not only is he friendly and polite, he is a very creative photographer, making sure every detail of the image was perfect and made the most of every location we came across.

Bob was also very professional and communicated well to me and my parents before, during and after the shoot.

Not ONLY that, the results of the shoot were insanely good, and I am excited to work with him again so of course I recommend !

I shot with the awesome Bob at Shadow studio in Gloucester.

What a productive shoot! Bob booked me for two hours and his pre comms were excellent beforehand.

Bob had planned some excellent things and he had alot of ideas, we managed to cover alot in our two hours and some of the results were just STUNNING! Im very much hoping he edits and posts them all :D

A really friendly, warm and great guy to be around.

Highly recommended.

Fantastic shoot with Bob!

We got on well straight away and I felt relaxed and comfortable from the get go. Bob is clearly a talented photographer and in next to no time we had created some images we were both proud of!

I can't wait to see edits now!

I had my first photoshoot with Bob yesterday, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Bob had some extremely creative ideas, we wouldn't have got the shots we did without his imaginative input. The pictures turned out beautiful I'm in love with them! He's truly talented and a perfectionist. He made me feel comfortable, he had a lovely funny personality. Definitely recommended! :D

Bob is a professional. He cares deeply about his work and would NEVER do a half baked job on something creative. If you work with Bob you can be totally sure that he has put an incredible amount of work in, even before meeting you!!! Location - clothes - vision on what the images would look like plus other things that I'm sure I don't fully understand about photography but are totally necessary for a shot - I highly recommend him - you would never be disappointed

This was a very impromptu shoot with Bob and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

The shoot was a lot of fun and very laid back. From the back of the camera it looks like the shots are stunning.

I would thoroughly recommend Bob and hope to work with him again in the future.

Had Bob back in the studio again this weekend, and it's always an absolute pleasure!

Bob's work is top notch, and his creativity is matched only by his professionalism. My daughter Jordaaan loves working with him, although it has to be said that Bob was cheating on her this weekend with some different models!! But given they were clients, she's forgiven him.

If you get chance to work with Bob, do so, it will do nothing but strengthen your portfolio.

Just collaborated with Bob and made a short Horror film with him - he is RIDICULOUSLY talented. I am blown away by his skill and dedication to a project! It's the most exciting work I have done while working on PP. Thanks so much for this opportunity and asking me to by the main part! I am so proud of our work and will always be! https://vimeo.com/249366757

Had Bob in the studio for a couple of days working on a video piece with Francesca Carlson from Aerial Inspirations circus school in Worcester. Pre-comms were excellent and Bob was always on time.

I didn't stay for any of the shooting and so cannot comment on that, but we chatted during setting up and Bob is a friendly bloke who you can tell enjoys what he does. He has tons of experience and is only to happy to share if interested. The rapport he had with Fran seemed excellent and I have no doubt they had a fun couple of days shooting.

Bob even fixed one of the casters that had come loose on one of the lights - top man!

Woww!!

I've been wanting to work with Bob and Rob for a while now and we finally set a date!

Pre-comms were brilliant.

Lovely guys which immediately puts you at ease.

Bob gives amazing direction and i came away learning so much (and with some gorgeous images). I cant wait for the next.

Thoroughly enjoyed our shoot and i could highly recommend both Bob and Rob to anyone.

You will not be disappointed!!

Jordaaan

Totally worth it, first choc ice in 15 years! ..... Bob found the most amazing locations, nurtured me throw a days shoot, covering loads of different images and concepts. (BTW he would make someone a wonderful personal shopper!)

The pair of them (Rob aka Golding) are great fun (although I wasn't the bun thief, that's just a wicked rumour!). Bob brought all his experience and talent to help me expand my port and I can't thank him enough - if you get lucky to be offered a TF and help with your profile - bite his hand off and take it 🙂

Today I met and worked with Bob after trying to organise something for a while.

Bob is just lovely to work with, respectful, considerate, good company and professional throughout the shoot.

Bob had plenty of ideas, the shoot was laid back and chilled and the images I have seen look brilliant.

I would highly recommend Bob to any model out there, thank you for a great shoot.

Carla :)
