Andrew Paul at Oxford

I completed a tutorial day with Lizzie last week. What can I say: brilliant! Lizzie is clearly a most accomplished photographer and is able to quickly tailor the day to suit individual needs. We focused on using a single off-camera flash and worked through a series of simple (when explained as clearly as by Lizzie: best explanation for using flash I have heard) lighting set ups. Lizzie reviews the shots regularly and provides constructive and thoughtful suggestions/ corrections (...and Tony did a great job providing tea/ lunch). Thank-you both!

I cannot recommend highly enough.

Had my second shoot with Lizzie recently after a three year gap but my first shoot at her home Sandon Studios. Lizzie is an incredibly talented model and her vast knowledge really helped to get the best of my time spent with her. If you have never shot with Lizzie then what are you waiting for? The girl is amazing.

The Mad Hatter

Had a great booking with Lizzie today with the aim of trying out different areas of her studio to where I usually work, some different genres and also some learning of fill flash. Lizzie is such a terrific model and excellent photographer herself so this 1 to 1 was most productive. Her manner in suggesting things to try, areas to use and some excellent modelling made for just the challenge I was after and I left having broadened my photographic capability and got some great images. This lady is just a terrific talent, thanks Lizzie

Models in the Landscape

Lizzie not only co-co-ordinated (I must do something about that stutter) the 3-model shoot at Sandon Studio but also modelled for us on Sunday.

Having not met Lizzie, or visited Sandon before and as she was the first model of our day, I have to confess that my far-better-half and I were a little lost at first but Lizzie soon took control of the situation, choosing her attire and swiftly moving in to flow posing for us whilst we "warmed up"

Lizzie is obviously very confident in her modelling abilities and we also shared opinions on certain aspects of photography/images based on her own photography. This offered an interesting and rare perspective.

Whilst we did manage a variety of images, we did commit a "school-boy error" and should really have booked more time. I am sure that we will remedy that in due course.

I had the great fortune to shoot with Lizzie when she hosted a studio day at Sandon Studio. Wow - what an amazing sequence of sets! I defy any imagist to exhaust the potential here. I only wish it wasn't such a journey.

Lizze herself is an amzingly gratious host - literally nothing was too much. The shooting was an absolute blast - we got very inventive with lighting sets and I'm still going through them in wonder. Takes direction awesomely but let her see what you're doing and she'll come back with ideas that will astound your camera.

Happily and heartily recommended.

This was 2nd time working with the lovely Lizzie. Such a lovely model and person to work with and extremely knowledgable in her craft. I found Lizzie very keen to help get the best from the time shooting with her always reviewing the images taken and giving invaluable tips and advice on how to improve your shots. I also found Lizzie so very helpful in making sure any ideas I had actually worked. Thanks to Lizzie's help and talent I came away with some great images and more understanding on what makes a great Image. Just hope I can remember it all and start putting it into practice. It goes without saying I would of course recommend Lizzie to any level of photographer. Thank you Lizzie, look forward to working with you again.

I had my first shoot with Lizzie Bayliss at her Sandon Studio. Lovely settings indoor and out in the extensive grounds, very welcoming and Lizzie was great as model and helpful with her photography skill and advice. Looking forward to my next. Thank you

I want to start to learn the art of portrait photography and decided to book a 1-2-1 tutorial with Lizzie. Due to the wonderful images she has and the fact that she has the experience from the other side of the camera as well.

I was nervous, as I usually am when I meet new people, but I was made to feel very welcome and at ease straight away as Lizzie is very friendly and engaging and the nerves disappeared quickly.

We sat and discussed a plan for the day ahead and then went on to explore around the fabulous studio. There are endless possibilities even using my untrained eye for the portrait photography genre.

We started with head portraits using different methods of lighting (my first experience of using lighting so a lot to take in) but Lizzie was very helpful, understanding and patient with me.

Then moved on to Fashion, Art Nude, Boudoir and finishing off with some reflection images in the mirror.

The time just flew by and I felt we worked very well together and going through reviewing the images regularly and getting her expert feedback was very helpful indeed.

Lizzie was then on hand to show me some processing techniques in PS for me to use in the processing of the images we had taken which is very handy as I have just started using the Adobe suite.

It was a very good day and I have got a lot of images to go through and process to make a good start to my portrait photography portfolio.

Many Thanks Lizzie and really look forward to working together again very soon.

The sun was shining, the sky was blue and I got to shoot with the lovely Lizzie for a whole day. What a perfect day to spend a Saturday.

This was a 1-2-1 tutorial day where Lizzie shared her knowledge of modelling & photography. Although I'm not new to this I still learnt a lot and benefitted from her input. We worked really well together and produced some beautiful images. She's a real professional and wants every image to be just right. Her advice on cropping, composition, positioning and lighting turned ordinary shots into great shots.

Throughout the day we'd shoot and review on the back of the camera so that we could iron out any issues and make the necessary adjustments and improvements.

We covered a range of styles, taking advantage of the fabulous Sandon Studio. This has lots of different sets and we covered 5 or 6 of these getting plenty of variety into the shoot.

She's a lovely lady with a great personality, friendly and easy to get along with. A lovely smile and a stunning figure. She's full of ideas and has the posing skills to turn those ideas into reality.

I would definitely recommend Lizzie and Sandon Studio to all photographers. Even if you're an experienced photographer you'll still benefit from Lizzie's knowledge and end up with some cracking images.

I look forward to working with her again soon.

Thanks Lizzie & Tony for your very kind hospitality and for a lovely day.

Where do you start........

Well to shoot with a superb model is inspirational in itself.

To shoot with a superb model who is also a photographer is both inspirational & educational.

Simply put I had the most amazing afternoons shoot with Lizzie, so down to earth & friendly to work with, and incredible professional too.

Pre shoot was superb, I had some example images of the the sort of theme I was interested in shooting, and Lizzie took the time to review each one carefully making suggestions on where to shoot and lighting set ups, which meant I was able to get superb results efficiently.

Through out the shoot Lizzie took the time to review results on the camera back & make suggestions on improvements in lighting & angles. Remember shooting with Lizzie at Sandon studio is ideal as She knows the sets so well, and what works in terms of lighting, locations and camera angles. This makes for a very efficient process.

I thoroughly enjoyed the shoot and have so many great images to work with.

There is little I can say that hasn't been covered in other references, however I would like to extend a genuine thank you to both Tony & Lizzie for a great experience, Lizzie's patience is legendary.

I highly recommend a shoot with Lizzie and look forward to working with Her again.

Thank you.

I had a wonderful shoot with Lizzie on one of her workshop which was do with Hollywood glamour and lighting

What an amazing shoot it was Lizzie as always was just a complete joy to work with and made sure that I got the best image's

Lizzie talked us through each set we did in a definite steady pace and explained how to use the lighting to it's best

In my opinion I have definitely come away with my best image's and I now have the confidence to recreate similar one's again

Lizzie is very highly recommended and if you get the chance to work with this wonderful young lady go for it you most certainly will not be disappointed

Thank you Lizzie for a fantastic shoot

I attended another one of Lizzie's workshops (my third now) and it was great again. A marvellous combination of fun and learning with some great results to take home. These workshops certainly suit relatively inexperienced photographers such as me but the experienced ones also seem to appreciate them.

They are also great value. For the price of a typical single hour in a studio day, you get multiple sets and superb guidance. You share the shoot with a few others but not too many and you are more likely to come home with some excellent images.

I will be going again and I suggest that you do too.

However, if you like your coffee black, make sure that you tell Tony before he puts the milk in.

I had the privilege of shooting Lizzie at a recent Portfolio Builder event.

She was a great person to work with. Posing was natural and I didn't even have to ask, she was able to pose instinctively. As a photographer new to working with models she was patient and kind.

Lizzie gave 100% throughout the shoot

I highly recommend Lizzie to any photographer. You will have a great experience and get some stunning images.

Spent a lovely Sunday afternoon working with Lizzie at Sandon. Directions were excellent and the studio was easy to find. The place had so many locations available within it to shoot interesting images using available light and each location was furnished with a range of appropriate props.

Lizzie herself was really helpful and fully engaged with the ideas I had arrived with, using her familiarity with the studio to help choose the best location for each of them. It was really easy to explain what I had in mind and without a doubt Lizzie used her experience both as model and photographer to develop them further so between us we created lots of pleasing images. Four hours just flew by.

I've no hesitation in recommending both Lizzie and Sandon and I'll definitely be returning in the future.

Had an amazing tutorial shoot with Lizzie at the Sandon studio. Sandon Studio is an excellent location set in a beautiful big old house, with large variety of rooms and a good-sized garden to shoot in. They have their own lighting and also Lizzie who is not just a very beautiful and talented model but also a trained photographer

I felt completely at ease to ask what I’m sure must have sounded like the stupidest of questions. I came away with (what I think is) an amazing set of photos. A basic understanding of light settings and I no longer think that using auto focus is cheating. Really looking forward to going back for another session soon.

It has been a couple of years since I last worked with Lizzie, my loss as she is even more brilliant than she was last time. Now she has Sandon Studio the options are limitless, whether shooting in the lovely garden or in one of the many indoor rooms. Lizzie was just as talented, beautiful and friendly to work with as I remember from before, if not more so.

As a photographer herself Lizzie is able to bring not only a model's eye but a photographer's one as well and she has some brilliant ideas. I went with a list of ideas and did not get anywhere nearly all of them done so guess there will have to be another shoot sometime.

Thank you for a wonderful time and, nearly forgot, would I recommend her well only 100%, if you want to work work with a beautiful model in a brilliant location look no further. Thanks Colin x

I’ve been a long time admirer of Lizzie’s port and we finally got round to working with each other at her delightful home (Sandon Studio).

Felt like a kid in a toy shop and was simply overwhelmed with all the possibilities on offer. Lizzie is one of the very best models you can hope to shoot with. We all know she looks beautiful and is an excellent poser, she also has a knockout wardrobe and a home that you could spend weeks shooting in and probably never get bored.

Lizzie also offered some great pointers with lighting setups and made some excellent creative suggestions that I was only too happy to go along with, after all, she is a great photographer also and two minds are better than one.

Time just flew by and felt like I had known her for years, and I really enjoyed the experience. My drive up from Northampton is further than I normally like to go, but it was well worth it and you can bet I’m going to make the journey again a fair few more times. Highly recommended – Lee

My first shoot with Lizzie today and I couldn't have been happier with the outcome; after a long drive I was made welcome at the studio, and tony and Lizzie are the best studio day hosts you could wish for.

The shoot itself was great; Lizzie is a true professional and made the shoot easy as she has such a creative eye for shots.

I look forward to working with Lizzie again and would recommend booking a shoot regardless of your experience level.

This was a two hour morning timeslot on a studio day at Lizzie's home, Sandon Studios. Lizzie's posing style is natural and fluid, I don't remember giving a single piece of direction throughout the whole shoot, she just instinctively knew what each set up was requiring and pulled out pose after pose.

What you get on camera with Lizzie is style and elegance. What you get between shots is someone with a down-to-earth, outgoing, bubbly personality, a great understanding of photography and light, and a person who is very easy to converse with. Lizzie's suggestions for places to shoot and angles to shoot from were absolutely spot on, and produced some images that I am looking forward to processing.

I would recommend Lizzie to anyone and everyone!

Spent a day at Sandon with Lizzie, had a great day and the tutorial was first-rate - I gained a lot from the day and Lizzie's easy-going manner, ability to pull off absolutely every look and pose flawlessly and simple and clear tuition helped no end with improving the way I think about shooting. A very valuable day, thank you 😀
