Having yesterday had another session with Maddie, I can only add to my previously written. In our working together it is easy to lose sight of the fact that Maddie is working with a sculptor, as such there can be substantial additional challenges that would challenge any model, these challenges are no such thing to Maddie, for her it is always a breeze, never once a complaint or any uncertainty. It is a real pleasure to talk ideas over with Maddie, she has a contagious excitement that makes working together a genuine pleasure.

Her creative ability is not limited to dance, and character role, she is a cauldron of ideas and inspiration. Needless to say, Maddie is the ultimate professional, comms are never lacking, always on time and bursting with enthusiasm, fab sense of humour. We have already scheduled our next session. Simply put, book her!

I've had the privilege of working with Maddie once again, and I must reiterate: she is truly outstanding. Maddie continues to impress on multiple fronts. Her ability to embody diverse characters is remarkable, showcasing a depth of understanding that goes far beyond typical. She doesn't just pose; she performs, bringing an authenticity to each role that is both captivating and inspiring.

Her dance background, as noted before, remains a significant asset. However, it's not just about the technical skill – it's the way Maddie integrates this expertise into her work, adding layers and expression that elevate the project she's involved in. She brings fresh ideas to the table, adapts quickly to direction, and maintains a positive, collaborative spirit throughout. Maddie is great fun to work with, I will definitely be working with her again.

I had my first shoot with Maddie yesterday, and she’s an incredible model to work with. Give her an idea, and she brings it to life effortlessly. Her creativity and professionalism really shine through. I’m already looking forward to our next shoot!

After another opportunity to work with Maddie this week, I feel compelled to update my previous recommendations. My initial high praise for her abilities and professionalism, if anything, underestimated her true capabilities.

Maddie continues to prove herself as a truly outstanding talent. What sets her apart is not just her versatility as a model and performer, but her ability to consistently elevate every project we are working on. Her unique blend of skills - from her dance background to her intuitive understanding of character portrayal - allows her to bring depth and authenticity to each role.

What's particularly impressive is Maddie's ability to adapt and excel. Whether it's dance or a nuanced character study, she approaches each task with the same level of dedication and skill. Her creativity seems boundless, often bringing fresh perspectives that enhance the original concept.

Maddie's professionalism remains impeccable. She's always well-prepared, receptive to direction, and contributes valuable ideas that often improve the original concept. Her positive attitude and collaborative spirit make her a joy to work with, she is fun with a wonderful personality. I will definitely be working with Maddie again. Highly recommended.

Had my first shoot with Maddie today and what an amazing time we had, we have some wonderful images.

Maddie arrived with a fantastic range of outfits which fitted the brief perfectly and communications were 1st class for which was a last minute shoot.

Maddie is an extremely talented lady who is able to pose easily and follow suggested poses and action's to minute detail.

Most of all, Maddie is very bubbly and easy to communicate and work with, I highly recommend Maddie for your next shoot.

Image Evolve

Great shoot. Maddie was well prepared and ready to shoot despite my bad communication.

Easy to shoot and talk to. Maddie has a natural ability to pose easily from her dance background.

Definitely a model I’d highly recommend.

RetroPhotoStudio

Maddie arrived very punctually for our shoot, fully prepared and made up. She is a remarkable young lady - self assured, confident, with an innate ability to produce an inexhaustible range of poses and expressions for the camera.

Her dance skills, which included being able to deliver outstanding high balletic jumps, barefoot on a hard stony beach, were outstanding.

I don't ever recall being able to photograph so many striking and dramatic 'keepers' in one session, and picking the best from an already amazing collection of shots is proving to be a tough challenge!

Her grace, poise and beauty, coupled with an enthusiasm and sense of humour mean she will always be in demand! I hope to get the opportunity to work with Maddie again before too long.

If you're looking for a great dancer mixed with a huge dose of energetic creativity and a whole lot of crazy fun then Maddie must be the model you're looking for.

I had the pleasure of joing Maddie, with two other photographers, at The Shed in Essex.

Here's a lady who just doesn't stop moving, jumping for one pose to the next, one style to the next with hardly a breath in between. And she pulls it all off beautifully and gracefully whether it's ballet or street style.

Nothing seems to be too much for Maddie who tirelessly worked her way hrough the evening with great humour as well as amazing dance skills.

I don't know about her, but I was shattered by the end!

100% recommended by me. :)

The Shed (essex)

This is not the first time I have worked with Maddie ( as a photographer and as a host for a studio event) and it won’t be the last. She has the most infectious smile, great personality and oodles of creativity…… always bringing fabulous outfits (and often extras she has made) to a shoot. And boy does the girl work hard. Happy to repeat the shots as many times as it takes to get it right. She interacts with all the photographers well and is always chatty and friendly (yet still very professional)….. her dance skills are superb which is the icing on the modelling cake!! Look forward to working with her again soon.

I attended Maddie’s dance inspired group shoot at The Shed studio. It was not only my first time meeting her but also working with her.

Despite being so young Maddie is extremely professional and is an extremely talented dancer. She was willing too do dynamic poses multiple times to achieve the best possible result.

Keeping Maddie still was very difficult as she has so much energy and this showed. Maddie also joins in on conversation and likes to have some form of banter with the photographers.

I look forward to working with Maddie again in the future

Just Imagine

I was very fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Maddie at a group shoot held in "The Shed (Essex)" Studio. What a superb evening it was: Maddie's modelling was absolutely amazing, she is such an incredibly talented dancer and model, very hard-working with a fantastic personality and sense of humour.

Working with Maddie is an experience not to be missed, and certainly an experience never to be forgotten!

If you get the chance to work with her, I highly recommend getting in touch with Maddie.

Second shoot with Maddie this time a 1to1 session arranged with fellow Tog Wayne. First time for all of us in the new studio at the Loft in Colchester

Pre shoot comms were first rate with Maddie also contributing to shoot ideas. On the day Maddie arrived on time with the outfits agreed and more

Maddie is a bundle of creative energy, constantly on the move and suggesting new ideas and posses. I not sure even she knows what she is going to do next which makes for a fun and enjoyable shoot. She has an engaging personality and the ability to project this for the camera where she gives 110% to create the very best images

She is highly recommended by me

This was my second shoot with Maddie, and will be many more planned.

This was a shoot with fellow tog Steve, and we shot at The Loft Studio in Colchester, we had a mix of outfits and mixed with Ballet and cabaret themes.

Comms leading up to the shoot were fantastic, and brought a selection of outfits for the shoot. Maddie arrived on time and full of energy which continued throughout the shoot, and was always happy to see the images on the back of camera.

Maddie posed with ease and no direction, a true artist and will help get the right image, was always happy to repeat the same jump or pose. The shoot session flew by and I came away with a selection of amazing photos.

Looking forward to planning our next shoot, would highly recommend working with Maddie.

100% recommended, thank you for a fantastic shoot

I had the pleasure of working with Maddie again over this weekend, for me the first few are somewhat like 'castings'... takes me a little time to feel if what I would like to create is possible with the model, or even possible at all.

If you're looking for a run-of-the-mill model, keep scrolling. But if you're in the market for a human Swiss Army knife of talent, look no further than Maddie. Working with her again has confirmed what I suspected: Maddie isn't just exceptional; she's as rare as a unicorn. This isn't your average "stand here and look pretty" model. Oh no, Maddie is a chameleon, a one-woman show that leaves you wondering if she's secretly hiding an entire theatre troupe in her bag. So here's the deal: when you book Maddie, don't just "hit play." She is extremely inspiring, I believe you can create the exceptional working together and exploring ideas.

She is the consummate professional, comms faultless, friendly, wonderful sense of humour, would I recommend ? without hesitation!

Orchard Studio, Cambridge

First shoot with Maddie, this one being primarily on a street-dance theme as part of a personal project.

Maddie has a great fun personality backed with immense dancing knowledge and ability, so the shoot went by perhaps all too quickly. Not that it matters, as I feel sure that I will be welcoming her back to the studio again in fairly short order. 110% recommended.

I had the pleasure of working with Maddie for the first time today, and I can confidently say she is an exceptional model and absolute pleasure to work with. Her performance was truly outstanding, demonstrating a remarkable blend of creativity, energy, and professionalism.

Maddie's years of experience, both in modelling and dance are evident, she is an absolute star. She is confident and brings a wealth of ideas, contributing actively to the creative process, she is also able to interpret instruction well. Her versatile dance background is a particular asset, allowing her to move with grace and precision.

What sets Maddie apart is not just her technical skill, but also her delightful personality. She maintains a positive and energetic presence throughout the work, making the entire experience enjoyable, she has a great sense of humour. Although my work is not photography based, which can be extremely challenging, nothing was too much for Maddie.

Pre shoot comms were without fault. I really cannot recommend Maddie highly enough. I have had the pleasure to work with some truly remarkable models in my many years of experience and place Maddie amongst the very best. We will be working together again soon.

AM Photography

My first shoot with Maddie, shooting a Lara Croft cosplay - a character she's practically born to play!

Impeccable pre-shoot comms, came well prepared and with infectious energy.

Maddie's got some good instincts on posing, particularly useful when shooting cosplay - a joy to work with.

An excellent shoot, I'd highly recommend shooting with Maddie - and plan to do so myself again soon too! :-)

Graham Mansfield Photography

Maddie was absolutely superb at the shoot I had arranged for the Guildford Photographic Society. She had to deal with about 12 photographers shooting her from all angles. She brought some great themed costumes that was on point for the SteamPunk theme. She was a very proactive model which is really important for our non experienced members and everyone was so impressed with Maddie. I cannot thank you enough Maddy and we will definitely ask you along to another shoot when I arrange one. Thank You Graham

This was the 2nd shoot I have had with Maddie. She is just a star!

A beautiful lady inside and out. Funny, enthusiastic and a great model. Dance poses are a dream, but poses with ease and elegance away from the dance theme as well.

Highly recommended.

Wayne.shardelow

My first shoot with Maddie at a studio day at The Shed Essex with fellow photographer and studio owner Kezz, originally was going to do some gel lighting, Maddie arrived with a planned mood board with amazing ideas using her tremendous ballet and dance skills.

We went through different ballet outfits and a denim theme also, it was mixed up with ballet and instead of pointe shoes we went with the Dr Martens boots which really stepped it up.

During the shoot communications between us was fantastic and the time just flew by, I came away from the shoot with some fantastic images and could not be happier.

Can’t wait to book and work with Maddie again.

Highly recommend 100%
