I'm ecstatically over the moon I shot with Lee at his house and Studio, what a bloody marvellous time it was! I had put out a tentative casting for the Saturday to see if anybody in the north London (ish) area fancied shooting, and Lee contacted me almost immediately - have wanted to work with him for a good long while, so I jumped at the chance of course!

We shot for three hours in his beautifully put together studio/house, a mix of natural light and studio lights, and he completely encouraged me to go nuts with my facial expressions (See?! He's brilliant!), introduced me to some awesome shooty through gadgets, and we didn't stop nattering all throughout the shoot. Such a lovely fellow. Very friendly, looked after me with lots of coffee and water, and he is an incredible photographer! Actually quite amazing for the couple of years he's been doing it for, I was rather gobsmacked.

So, to sum it all up, Lee is an awesome soul, with a keen eye for magnificent pictures, and is brilliant to chat to. Highly recommended my dears!

Had an amazing time working with Lee and Stephen last Friday at my Aerial Studio in Gravesend Kent. Have worked with Lee on a few occasions and there's a reason for this because he is absolutely brilliant and I am always super happy with what we produce, everytime.

His work was absolutely amazing considering it was his first time to ever shoot anything like that and I am amazed with the results but to be honest I knew he would do a brilliant job. Would be extremely happy to work with him again!! x

In this tough industry it is so amazing to meet someone like Lee. He's a very creative and talented photographer but above it all he is a great guy; very considerate of his model's well being. I spent 6 hours shooting with him but it went by too quickly! I am very grateful he decided to respond to my casting call as we have created some stunning images together. I hope Lee enjoyed shooting with me as much as I did, I would not hesitate to work with him again :*****

I was fortunate enough to do my first studio shoot at L.R.M Photography's studio. I'm a beginner and Lee was super helpful throughout the day, going through F-Stops, DOF, placing the model in the scene, lighting options and negative space. Lee also had a variety of snacks and drinks to keep us going! We used various backgrounds and he allowed me to use the lovely Winchester sofa during the shoot with Scarlett Fox. Lee also gave me some valuable tips for Lightroom & Photoshop. He's a genuine, enthusiastic and helpful person and highly recommended.

I've now stayed with Lee twice while touring the area and after a great deal of thought I have come to the conclusion that he may just be THE nicest man in the world. Obviously I haven't met every human on the planet but so far Lee is right up there!

He kindly put me up for three nights, gave me the use of his spacious home studio and let me have the run of the kitchen and the lions share of food. As well as this he puts up with my incessant talking and nonsense without batting an eyelid. Even when I talked him into shooting me even though he was on a break!

As a photographer Lee is faultless. Professional. Talented. Passionate.

As a friend Lee is faultless. Kind. Thoughtful. Feeds Me.

I have nothing but fantastic things to say about Lee, and if you view my profile you will see how highly I view his work as it makes up a large part of it!

Thank you so much x

So, I came to stay with the lovely Lee as well as have a shoot! Had a fab time, Lee is an absolute gentlemen and made sure I was happy with everything at all times. His pre-shoot/stay comms were perfect - I like being organised too - and it made both our lives so much easier! Lee is very chatty and knowledgeable about photography, so we had plenty of natters about that!

As I had a long drive that turned into a very long drive, we had less time to shoot when I got there :( but we still got some great images! Lee also provided additional support/assistance to other photographers when I did a semi studio day at his the next day.

Highly recommend Lee for other touring models as well as for shoots, although be prepared to eat your own weight in food... sorry I didn't eat everything you bought me! Many thanks again Lee!

On my recent tour, I got to stay and shoot with this wonderful individual, who is the most perfect of hosts and has such a beautiful home set up!

Lee is so very professional but still retains his fab sense of humour which had me giggling throughout - his way with the camera is mesmirising, deftly setting up the lights (from his huge collection) to create some amazing effects, his techniques are so beautifully executed and watching him edit was an honour!

This lovely photographer is very genuine and has the best interests of the model heart, Lee has a personality as awesome as his style and tekkers - I cannot recommend him enough to all, especially to touring models :)

I had a super duper day with Lee last week! We were joined by Arvee and Scarlett Fox for the day at my studio. What a fun day it was!

All pre comms where great. Lee was organised, efficient and I knew what to expect from the day! All three of them turned up ready and raring to go! Although I hadn't met any of them before I feel we all got on really well and I hope we can do it again one day! :D

I shot with Lee first and we worked our way through loads of ideas, chatting a lot too in the process which was nice. Lee shot some duo work with myself and Scarlett on the trampoline in the parachute dress and we finished the day with more duo's (pin up and then moody Newton style)

I love the shots I have seen so far and can't wait to see more!! Thanks, Lee! :)

Arvee

What can I say about Lee I haven't said before? This weekend has felt like one huge shoot at numerous locations. Its been a total blast working with Lee on numerous projects over the last few months but this weekend has been mind blowing. Lees knowledge,enthusiasm and generosity know no bounds. His studio is so well equipped I think you would struggle to fine a better place to shoot. Lee helped me out on my first studio shoot with a model booked here and i hope he's there when i shoot my last! Work with this guy as a model or photographer and you will learn something its guaranteed! Proud to call a close friend and would recommend him to everyone. If you haven't worked with Lee you are missing out!!

Scarlett Fox

So Lee and I work together every month but it's about time to give him a new reference as this past weekend of shooting together has been simply mind blowing, yet again Lee and I have out done each other and gone up tenfold!

Thursday we started of the long weekend with some wet fashion, with my lovely assistant sprayer of water Arvee, Lee had transformed his studio into a wet room since my last visit (just mental), Lee cranked up the heating as well on this hot afternoon to make sure I didn't get cold, once we were sure we had the shots we were after, we did some slightly wet fashion on one of his new backdrops which looked epic as well.

Towards the end of the day Arvee had the awesome idea of having a shoot at one of his locations with a burnt out car, so once it was dark we went off for our midnight madness shoot in the middle of nowhere, and well the shots are just insane!

The next day I had a shoot with another photographer in the studio, and when we did decide to take advantage of the great weather, Lee came with us to help hold reflectors or lights.

On the Saturday, Lee, Arvee, and I went to Bedfordshire to shoot with the terrific Artemis Fauna at her home, I shot with Lee in the afternoon on some solo work where we started with some bridal work, art nude, and finished up with some grungy fashion around the grounds playing with blur and reflections. Then worked on two sets with Artemis of pinup and the finale of Helmut Newton styling.

Finally on the Sunday, we had an lighting and depth of field experimental day, and we threw in some gels and bokeh, we really did do everything over the four days, 5 shoots in 4 days I was knackered and he still had energy to spare!

Lee maybe one of the best photographers I've worked with and who started out only two years ago and has came on leaps and bounds since then, he has still remained one of the nicest of people, he still remembers to get extra milk as I am never without a coffee in hand, makes sure I'm well fed with Quorn and other lovely vegetarian options in and snacks, if he's taking a shot quite close to me he still asks if it's alright to get closer, if he needs to turn on the modelling lights he tells me to close my eyes even though I've not had retinas for years! But I must say I'm totally blown away by the work we've done this month, it's just mad! How we're going to out do it next month, I have no idea!

See you next month,

Lee has to be one of the sweetest, kindest most lovely man I have had the pleasure to meet. Although we did not plan to shoot, he ended up coming along with myself and Stephen Hawkins on our shoot in Bencroft Wood. I was happy for Lee to join us as he was ever so kind as to let me stay in his guest room during my time in Hertfordshire and it was the least I could do to get some time to shoot with him.

He's a very talented photographer, he's patient and polite as well as friendly and it made the shoot very enjoyable. It's always challenging having two photographers in the same location to get different shots, but Lee and Stephen pulled it off and they both got some incredible pictures. Lee was friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived at his house, I felt so comfortable almost instantly and have already had a brief discussion about staying with him again in the future.

He cooked for me, he had fresh sheets on the bed, showed me around the house and made me feel at home.

I can't fault Lee, he's truly an incredible person.

Thanks Lee!

What can I say about Lee, I have followed this brilliant man for two years and I had the pleasure to do a shoot with him at last!

I am new to this and he made me feel comfortable and welcome,

The shots are wonderful and I thank you lee for giving me the best day. I hope one day I'll do some smiling shoots for you ! ;)

I would recommend this brilliant man, he is a perfectionist.

Thank you

Wow! What can I say about Lee!

Lee was very accommodating! His house was spotless and he supplied a wide range of snacks and refreshments!

My mum drove me to the shoot as I don't drive and he was very happy to have her there! He made her feel very welcome and was very happy when she offered to help with the lighting!

The studio was great! He had a wide range of studio lighting, props and backdrops!

Lee is a true professional and made sure I was comfortable at all times! He gave me a good variety of images from studio to outdoor!

I received the photos very quickly and I am very happy with them!

I would definitely recommend Lee to anyone!

Thank you again Lee for a lovely shoot!

Wow, I'm stunned at the change in Lee! Okay, so, anybody would progress over a period of time in but, Lee is taking pictures which are outstanding and he is still keen to improve even more.

He has also grown in so many other ways not just in ability but, in confidence too. Although he is still very down to earth, easy going and good fun to work with.

I enjoy working with Lee. I'm looking forward to seeing the images.

I would highly recommend Lee to all and I would most definitely work with him again.

Thanks again, Lee.

I've just come back from a two day stay at Lee's and what a great time I had! Lee's home and studio are spotless and he has just about every light under the sun...oh and talking of sun some pretty great natural light spots too!

Lee kindly put me up after our shoot and let me use his studio the next day for another shoot which was really helpful :)

As far as the shoot goes I can't stress enough how great Lee is with light and shadow, he has a true passion for photography and every image he creates is different, artistic and skilful.

I couldn't have asked for a better photographer and host, his attention to detail is amazing and as a model I felt we were working together to create images we would both be proud of.

I'm so happy with the results and I cannot wait to come and stay again,

Thank you so much!!

Had an excellent shoot with Lee at his home studio in Chesunt. I have to say he is by far the most laid back photographer i have ever worked with! He had enough snacks and chocolate provided to feed an army ;D

He wad great to work with, fun, extremely chatty and so relaxed and at ease.

He probsbly is one of the most genuinely lovely people I've ever met!

His phototraphy wad outstandingly awesome, we got some amazing results. He works in a unique way, eliminating any of the average results and only keeping the 'wow' shots. We worked through a verity of different ideas from fashion through to some quirky lingerie shots.

It is very apparent that Lee has a fully fledged passion for photography and takes it by the horns. He had so many different lights and props i could hardly believe it! Its really uplifting working with people like him who have an absolute genuine affinity for capturing people.

Lee made me instantly at ease, he's one of those people you meet and feel like you've known for years. Absolutely lovely to work with so 100% recommended by me and I'd love to work with him again. :)

I was very lucky to arrange today's shoot with Lee on a short notice. It was the first time we worked together, and it was a blast! Lee is a great host and such a friendly guy, an absolute pleasure to work and chat with. I was most kindly provided with all sorts of snacks and drinks.

Lee has a very well equipped studio and is incredibly creative in the use of major and minor pieces of equipment! We worked through a number of sets and made breaks in between to go through the images from each set. And I'm over the moon with the selection! Would love to work together again, and of course will always highly recommend Lee to any model.

I worked with the amazing Lee again recently and had such a great time! It was our second time working together, this time I was so lucky to stay at his beautiful home for the week during my tour of the local area. Lee was super kind, a simply amazing host and made sure that I was happy, comfortable and FULL to brim with roast dinners! Lee is such a kind, giving and caring person, he ordered lots of delicious food for the week and kindly gave me a key to come and go as I pleased. My room was lovely, modern, clean, so so comfortable and I felt very safe, it felt like a home from home.

We were lucky enough to shoot on one of the evenings I had available in the area and as always Lee was a pleasure to work with- creating stunning shots effortlessly. His editing and choice of images are also superb and he has such a great eye for photography and a passion and flaire for it that is just so infectious! Whatever age or experience you are, I highly recommend shooting with Lee, he is extremely trustworthy and one of my favourite photographers to work with. Super highly recommended and look forward to seeing you again soon! :)

Had the pleasure of shooting with this wonderful man again a couple of months back, this time we ventured to the great outdoors. I pranced about in many outfits as usual, and Lee was kind, patient and considerate as always.

This man just keeps growing and growing as a photographer and every shoot we do gets better and better. He was kind enough to allow me to choose my favourite pictures to be edited, and I really struggled to narrow it down.

Lee is one of those rare people, an absolute true gentleman. He will always put his model's wellbeing first and he is just a fantastic man to shoot with.

Thank you Lee for another fantastic shoot :)
