I had been wanting to book a shoot with Lily for some time and we got to arrange one for today. We went up to Sandon Studio and despite the dull conditions and pretty low light levels, we had a fantastic time working only with the natural light. This lady is without doubt one class act, a fabulous hard working model over a wide range of styles. Lily is great company, she gives input into the shoot to help produce those little bits of magic and our time just flew by. A huge thank you Lily for a great day and hope to work with you again soon. Recommended like crazy. 😊😊😊

I’ve been struggling to organise another shoot with Lily since forever! Fame and international jet-setting has not changed her, though! She’s still the smart, professional and friendly person she was three years ago!

Some great sets at the wildlife park that is Far Forest, curated by Mark, and some great sets in the purpose-built studio, which is not only a good floor size, but has height, too!

This young lady is unreservedly recommended by me!

Fantastic shoot, Lily! See you soon!

The short way would be to point to my reference from our first shooting about a year ago, there is not much to add, great girl, great looks, versatile, a fantastic poser and really easy going, on and off a shoot!

We had nearly 3 relaxed days, 2 of them accompanied by the fantastic Faye Noir and they went in no time!

Lily is easy to work with, easy to do duo shots, relaxed and experimental and she's always interested to get THE shot!

We had to change all initial plans due to a fellow photographer and MUA being hospitalised on the day before the shooting, but we've developed together some common ideas that we could realise together and like that saved the shooting!

So sure a full recommendation, another shooting and surely more fun, more great images and again the wish to shoot soon thereafter again!

Lily is a superb model. Experienced and intelligent, she works hard to make the shoot a success, and is highly adaptable.

I do often put the people who model for me through a lot. It is a joy to work with someone who is as committed to achieving the shot. (it is possible that it is me who should be committed!).

For this shoot she had to deal with a grimy workplace. Getting dirty was part of the brief and she threw herself into the style and theme of the shoot. Of course she got filthy ! It was also a little chilly, but she coped with everything brilliantly.

I am completely impressed with Lily and I recommend her without reservation, especially if you want to do something "out of the box".

I had the pleasure of working with Lily for 3 days in Fuerteventura. She was incredibly friendly, professional and talented, and supportive of the other models. Besides being amazingly photogenic, she brings a wonderful enthusiasm and passion for creating great images. She is very aware of lighting and angles, and can really help the photographer with ideas both creative and technical. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Lily and highly recommend her.

I had my first shoot with Lily the other day, what a wonderful young lady she is, she arrived on time with a good selection of outfits and we jumped straight into the shoot. We were shoot at SS Creative which can be very cold (it was -6 this morning) but Lily soldiered on through the cold accompanied by lots of hot coffee. We managed to get some wonderful shots and had a great fun time.

I would 100% recommend Lily she is a very professional and passionate model who works very well with or without direction. Im looking forward to when we can shoot again hopefully on a warmer day.

How do you describe a model who is as wonderful as Lily. After messages going back nearly two years we finally arranged a long awaited shoot. We worked at Shadow Studio, Gloucester; time simply flew by and our 4 hour shoot was over. In that time though Lily was simply awesome and together we created loads of wonderful images all using the brilliant natural light in the studio. We covered a wide range of poses using a number of the props in the studio.

Awesome is how I think of Lily, so capable, experienced and knowledgeable in front of the camera yet giving some very useful tips on how to get the best shapes. A warm, friendly outgoing and chatty person too. Lily is very highly recommended and I definitely hope to work with her again next year.

Thank you,

John

I had a most rewarding shoot with Lily at Saracen House Studio.

Lily is a real gem to work with, needs little or no direction in addition to having a very expressive face and a delightfully natural figure.

I am sincerely hoping that I will have the honour to work with this young lady again but meanwhile must thoroughly recommend Lily to you all.

Thanks, Lily, here's looking forward to the next time.

I had the pleasure of working with Lily for the first time this morning. I don't know why it's taken me so long to get around to working with her but it was definitely worth the wait.

We had an early start at the fabulous Far Forest studio. Despite the early hour, Lily was up and ready and we were soon creating some amazing images.

She is a lovely lady. Great looks, stunning figure and a fantastic model. Her posing is top quality and she is a real pleasure to work with.

Thank you Lily for a lovely Saturday morning. Look forward to working with you again in the near future.

I had the good fortune to work with Lily for the first time at her Model Day at Far Forest Studio in Worcestershire. She is a highly experienced and truly exceptional model who is able to pose effortlessly to create natural and stunning shapes. A great conversationalist with a wonderful personality; she is a pleasure to work with and gives great feedback to the photographer throughout the shoot. Thank you Lily, for a most enjoyable shoot and I hope that we will have the opportunity to work together again in the future. Very highly recommended.

I had the pleasure to work with Lily on Monday and it's a long time I was looking her work. I finally had the opportunity to work with her and I have to say that this have been quiet a shock for me ... why ? Because she is even more beautiful than you think, she is a totally profesionnal and on top of this one of the most adorable person I have meet in this industry. She is just 'magical' to work with and she had boost my confidence and boost my inspiration. She even push me out of my confort zone,for the right reason, and get me to do some superbe images ... Like few others photographer below, I wish I could work with her so much more ...

She is like a 'Muse'for a photographer. I have loved every second of this shoot and I'm totally in Love of the pictures she let me produce.

In this world of modelling she is a 'precious Diamond'.

Anyone who could work with this truly adorable Muse have to do it

Probably my best shoot ever :-)

My photography soul love you to the moon and back

a million thanks Lily :-)

I had hoped to book Lily in the new year but my shoot got cancelled and by chance Lily was avalible so i booked her straight away.

Lily is such a lovely person to work with she has to be one of the nicest models i have worked with to date.

You can see why she's widely published and recently in playboy Portugal.

Lily is stunning with a lovely slim figure and even shooting for 4 hrs that didn't seem enough.

I realy enjoyed my shoot with Lily she is a top model and i got some realy great images from in and outdoors.

Do i recommend Lily?😲..Yes i do i feel very lucky for getting the chance to work with such a great model.

I would love to work with Lily again and hopefully that wont be too far away.

Thanks Ian x 😁

Thank you so much Lily for an awesome shoot, I'm so pleased to have worked with you!!

Well this was my first time working with Lily, I have loved her work for ages, and realising I'm not too far away, got in touch for a shoot. I'm so pleased I did, Lily is a beautiful soul, both her appearance and nature, and felt so relaxed in her company.

I usually plan to shoot at a location, near the model, but this time, me and Lily went with the flow, and explored the areas around her town, and Lily was so creative, I happily followed her idea's, we created some really beautiful images too.

Having only worked with her once, I can honestly highly recommend her, can't wait to work with her again, and I'm so pleased I do hobby, where I get to meet people like her!! :)

Bogwoppett

Well, I have to say that was a thoroughly enjoyable shoot with Lily.

Her experience and ability shine through. If you add her intelligence and enthusiasm then you have an immensely capable model.

She works hard, and helps to drive the shoot in order to achieve the image.

She is an impressive model and I happily recommend her to everyone.

Lily is not only an incredible model but she is as lovely a person as you could ever meet, I would work with Lily every day if I could!

The Photo Taker

I'm not sure how many shoots I’ve had with Lilly, suffice to say it’s quite a few. So why do I keep coming back, the answer is simple. Lilly, apart from being a totally amazing beautiful model, probably the best model I’ve ever had the honour of working with, has the ability to always find something new and different to add to the shoot.

She sees the variety of colours and shades in every location, an artistic talent that allows her to exploit everything a location has to offer. Lilly is far more than a model. Quite often I'm sure she’s on the wrong side of the camera!

Apart from all that Lilly is a lovely person to be with and work with. After all these shoots I proud to call her my friend. Thank you so much Lilly, another amazing shoot and of course fantastic pictures.

Well what can I say about Lily and our shoot today ?

Epic is a word I’d use , Astounding, breathtaking , I could go on and on .

This was a rescheduled shoot at short notice , pre shoot comms were spot on and we agreed a mood board and items to shoot in . Lily is staggering in many ways not just as a model , in which I would go as far to say she’s the most naturally beautiful model I’ve seen but as a person too , the 4 hrs flew by and not only did we shoot set after set in her apartment and in the grounds but she makes a mean cup of coffee and tea and treated me to lunch too :))

A real jem to work with and if you look at the quality of her work you ll see what I mean .

Whether you’re a beginner or a pro Lily is exceptional and you ll come away with scores out outstanding shots - I certainly did , would recommend her so highly that if this was Spinal Tap , Lily’s an 11 !!

Thanks again for the shoot and already looking forward to working with you again :)
