I was delighted to have a second wonderful shoot with Carl! As always, it was a great time filled with creativity and lots of fun. Carl had prepared numerous fantastic ideas, and it was a joy to bring them to life. Working with him is an absolute pleasure. I have the freedom to pose as I want, and I'm always confident that the shots will be perfect, cause he is a great photographer!

Carl excels at using gels to create excellent lighting, and he is an attentive and kind person. He ensures a warm temperature, provides lunch, and takes care to ensure my happiness and comfort. 🥰 We always have great conversations, and time flies by.

I'm thrilled with all the photos, and it's always a great pleasure to work with Carl. Thank you for the wonderful shoot, and I look forward to working with you again in the future! Thank you, Carl!

Another shoot with Carl and what a joy it was as always.

I've known Carl for a number of years and it's been fantastic to watch him continue his photography journey and really step up his game recently.

Carls creavtivity has really flourished, and I am super proud of him!

Our shoot was enjoyable, full of laughs and we created some fantastic results.

Looking forward to seeing more from Carl, and what shoots he is planning. Keep going Carl!

I had an amazing shoot with Carl in Studio de Lumiere!😍

Ah, Carl is such a nice person and absolute pleasure to work with! He was happy to meet and drive me back to the train station. Didn't rush me at all. We was drinking tea and had a very lovely chat along our shoot🥰 We was listening a cool music and all our shoot was so easy and fun!

Carl is really great photographer! He has a perfect taste and really great vision! He knows how to work with light and different lenses, has a lot of good equipment and can create really artistic shots! Carl was so kind to show me the photos and gave me opportunity to pick up some of them. The photos are so awesome and i am so happy that i could have them🤩

Carl is really great and i will be very happy to work with him again! Thank you so much!

I had such a pleasure and fun working with Carl for the duration of the day during our first one to one shoot together. Carl has such a warm, friendly personality but he is also respectful and very much a gentleman.

As a photographer, he is passionate, creative and hard-working, we experimented with so many different sets and various lighting set ups during our day together, it's no surprise we got so many good shots!

I can highly recommend Carl to other models and studios, would definitely work with him again. Thank you very much Carl 😊

Studio de Lumière

Carl has worked at the studio on a number of occassions, very skilled photographer and really pleasant person.

He is welcome at the studio at any time.

Wow!

It was a miracle that we were both still alive to do our 2nd shoot after leaving it for so long, but luckily… we made it!

Carl is back, and I’m delighted about it!

Carl is mega creative, and works hard with his set ups to make the shoot inspiring and unique. His work has seriously levelled up, and I was really impressed with Carls ideas. Im loving the results and I really hope that he is proud of our work - because I am.

I love working with Carl! He’s fun to work with, with his hilarious humour, stories and banter. Although you should be prepared 😂

Super looking forward to next time, and what a relief that he isn’t leaving it so long!

Watch this space!

Highly recommended by me - thank you.

Had a great first shoot with Carl at Owen Lloyd's Lighting and Fog workshop. Carl is very easy to get along with, came with great attitude and really made the most of the workshop. He was a gentleman throughout and I really enjoyed working with him. He took some fantastic shots and I am looking forward to seeing others. Can highly recommend to other models and studios, thank you Carl.

First shoot with Carl this morning.

I was about 7 or 8 minutes late, which was really bad of me since I only live across the road from location, I swear I'm normally on time, but he didn't make a fuss or even really mention it, so my anxiety over that soon dropped.

We had a nice walk around the park and he always had his eye out for patches of nice soft lighting and parts of the foliage that would frame me nicely.

He was very professional, and chatty and down to earth.

Was a lovely morning and I recommend him fully

What a day! In all of the right ways.

I've been speaking with Carl for a couple of weeks arranging our shoot. Pre-comms were excellent and they included the full moodboards as he states, he also took some shots of ideas I had and I like to think we've captured so great images, playing with different angles and lighting set ups.

We shot at my home and Carl was the perfect house guest also. He arrived early and despite the early morning start things ran pretty smoothly. He gives great direction and makes sure each shot is the best it can be.

I'd absolutely recommend to any model and I look forward to shooting with you again.

Can't wait to see how the end product turns out and thank you once again.

I had the recent pleasure to work with Carl.

Very friendly, respectful, funny and very open to my crazy ideas!

I could just go with the flow and follow my imagination.

One of nicest togs I have ever had the chance to work with.

Any model will feel relaxed with him and keep laughing :)

Highly recommended.

Thank you Carl.

My first shoot with the awesome Carl!

Pre comms were top, including mood boards on lighting, looks and a plan of action for the day. Very thorough and clear :-)

Shoot with Carl was great fun, 8hrs flew by!

He created a awesome atmosphere to work from and was super laid back, whilst hard working.

Very thoughtful regarding breaks, to ensure energy was kept at a high.

LOVING what I saw on the back of the camera and looking forward to seeing more results.

I really enjoyed our shoot and hope to work with him again.

Thanks for having me :-)

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Carl joined us on our Norse Dragon Armoury Group Shoot on the Sunday Afternoon. It was my first shoot with Carl, and I certainly hope its not my last! Carl was on time, and prepared, and was great fun to work with. He got some wonderful shots and had some awesome ideas. He was respectful and professional through out, and was very friendly and easy to talk to. He comes recommended from me! Hope to see you again soon, Carl

Had my first shoot with Carl on Saturday, it was great. He was professional and immediately put me at ease as I was a little tense to begin in. We got a lot creative shots together I can't wait to see the finish product. Highly recommend him to any model, and hopefully I'll get to shoot with him again in the near future :)
