Had a epic Apartment shoot with Oliver, During my Tour in Edinburgh!

Pre communications were spot on with everything finalised and understood within a few emails!

On shoot he knew exactly what he wanted, giving me an idea at the beginning so we were on the same paths!

Oliver was very professional on shoot! Making sure I was comfortable throughout! Happy to let me pose freely! But also developing them and letting me know his ideas constantly too.

Highly recommended to any level of model and look forward to working with him again next time!

Thanks Again Oliver!

First shoot with Oliver in Glasgow and it went brilliantly. He was very chatty and funny. He also is very artistic and thoughtful of the angles and composition and we achieved amazing photos! He was a pleasure to work with.

Highly recommended x

I had such an amazing shoot with Oli today, wanders in the wilderness of the Scottish lands, starting at an amazing Loch, in the water, amongst large stones; then gorgeous lines and shapes at a pretty bridge, popped over to a dam, which had killer views, some immensely cool areas to shoot; even climbed a giant stone - it was just an INCREDIBLE shoot. The pictures are magnificent!

Oli is a lovely soul, chatty, respectful, down to earth, immensely creative, and great company. Would highly recommend to all models and creatives!

Such a pleasure to see Oli and shoot with him again after many years!!

Oli booked me for a full day during my Scotland tour last week and was so kind to pick me up in Glasgow and bring me back after the shoot. He also hosted me for one night.

I love hanging out with Oli, the day went by smoothly despite the bad weather, and we managed to get some lovely images in between showers!

Conversation is always great with Oli too :)

Thank you my friend, can't wait to see our final images!

I am so glad Oliver booked me as part of my tour to Scotland. I was at Pavilion studio for the full day and Oliver booked onto it pretty last minute. Even though it was short notice for him i was really impressed with all the ideas he had. He had a few projects that he wanted to add to so it was nice for me to be involved in coming up with poses that would suit. Oliver is a really friendly and interesting person, i really enjoyed chatting and shooting. I hope we get to work together again sometime.

Wow! Where to start with this wonderful man! After a couple of months of planning and sorting logistics I finally had the opportunity to work with Oli this week. We shot duo with a male model and I can honestly say that Oli is one of the most relaxed and engaging photographers I've ever worked with. He was considerate of levels and comfort throughout and made a shoot where the levels were bordering on the more explicit so relaxed and easy. Oli has it in spades - a truly lovely person and a great photographer! What more could you want from a shoot!! I am so excited to see the final edits from the shoot and would welcome the opportunity to work with Oli again and again!! Thank you :)

Having seen his photos and spoken to models who'd shot with him before, I accepted Oliver's booking for a duo shoot without hesitation. Pre-comms although complex went smoothly, and a last-minute snag with the location was dealt with intelligently and calmly, and in full consultation with the models. On the day Oli showed up in good time and quickly put us both at ease, he's a very easy guy to get along with and puts his models' comfort and wellbeing first. The nature of the shoot required some sensitivity all around and Oli proved just the man for the job. Always thoughtful and considerate, never pushy. In short Oli is a lovely guy to deal with and I couldn't recommend him more highly! Looking forward very much to seeing his results.

I had a chance to work with Oli at '' Back to 70s'' event organised by Artemis in a stunning Hacienda studio. It was my first time working with Oli and it was a real pleasure!

Oli was so easy going and relaxed for that whole time :). He is really easy to talk to, really down to earth and funny! I felt comfortable working with him and just felt like we worked together before. He is also a great photographer, super creative, with plenty of ideas but at the same time he's open to any suggestions model has. He is really dedicated to his photography, I don't even remember how many cameras and different lenses he brought .. but quite a lot! And he knew how to use them which made it so easy for me and other models :) We had a great time, full of laughs and amazing results!

Definitely recommended, thank you Oli and looking forward to working with yo again! :)

I absolutely love shooting with Oliver :)

We had our second shoot a few days ago in Scotland, and we got some seriously beautiful shots.

Oliver was so nice to pick me up from my train, drive me to his place, host me in his home for the night and bring me to the airport the day after.

He knows some incredible locations around Glen Arklet and he's not only an amazing photographer, but also a gentleman and a lovely human being.

Thank you so much for an amazing time, I'm looking forward to our next shoot!

Have been wanting to work with Oli for bloody ages - seriously adore his work, and he come across as the loveliest person. Which he certainly is!

We managed to arrange a two hour shoot in London this week, at Maan Studios in Streatham, which is a beautiful studio underneath the railway tracks, and boy, did those two hours go fast. We shot some multiple exposure shots, low light moody portraits, got some dynamic nude structural shapes in - the images looked absolutely beautiful on the back of the camera, was buzzing!

Oli has a wonderful energy - laid back, intelligent, funny, extraordinarily creative and a massive geek, not to mention just the coolest guy to talk to. And insanely talented. So pleased I got to work with this fellow.

Would highly recommend to all models and creatives.

Until next time m'dear! Thank you again 👑

I worked with Oli for the first time last week on Artemis Fauna's 70s event at the Hacienda is London.

Oil was great fun to work with, very easy to get along with, super chatty and great fun.

He came with some super cool camera's and he even let the models choice a Polaroid to take home from one the sets he did, so nice.

I enjoyed meeting Oli and hope we can again soon.

Thank you

Artemis Fauna

I was lucky enough to have Oli join me for the entire day on my recent 'Back to the 70's' event at the Hacienda. He was the first to book he was that keen! :D :D

We all went back nearly 50 years on entering the studio- the mixture of 70's music, the mustard yellows, browns, purples... even the authentic 70's snacks- we wanted everyone walking in to feel like they had literally gone back in time!

I can confidently say everyone involved had blast for the duration of the shoot time. All 16 photographers walked away with stunning images. I know as I did my best to look through as many as I could-!

The event took six months to create, and the four days flew by way too fast.

We have all raised a lot of money for Battersea Cats and Dogs home and also created many wonderful memories- some of which I hope will stay with me until the 2070's- If I'm lucky-!!! ;)

I am over the moon at how well the event went- I have everyone involved to thank for that- the models, assistants, studio, hair stylist and of course, the photographers. I could't have done it without you- so thank you for having faith in my event and booking a slot.

Peace out dudes... :)

I had a recent shoot with Oliver on my studio day at Pavilion studios. I think we were in contact about a year or even two years ago and I’m very happy I could finally make the acquaintance! Oliver was SUPER easy to work with, he knows what he likes but also lets you do your own thing and get into your flow and I found the whole shoot laid back, enjoyable and fun ! I really hope I can work with Oliver again, hopefully on location ! He’s super sweet and professional and great to chat with. Fantastic lighting set up too! He knows what works, especially with my pale skin. Thank you so, so much for coming to shoot with me ! X

Oliver booked me in for a 2 hour evening session at Maan Studios - we met at the station and walked up together, then he dropped me off after the shoot. He had a very clear idea about the images he wanted to produce, and the results were awesome, all in monochrome.

He was also very patient with me as it took me a while to get going with my poses (in a way that flowed), as I was feeling unwell that day. Also appreciated his professionalism...and his turnaround with edits was only one week, very impressed!

Had a lovely shoot with Oliver on my recent trip to London! He popped in for an evening shoot as he was working in London and we played around with his instax and film cameras, as well as experimenting with some night shooting out on the balcony my apartment had.

The shoot was great fun and we produced some fab images together :)

Would more than happily recommend him to others and hope to see him again soon!

Had a fantastic first shoot with Oliver when he booked some time on my studio weekend at Pavilion studio. I had admired his beautiful monochrome photography before, so it was a treat to get to shoot with him. We experimented first with low key and multiple exposures, and we got some great results. After that we tried dance and movement with sandwich lighting, and again the results, which Oliver kindly showed me as we went along, were really lovely, with beautiful tones and lighting.

We had such a productive creative time, and Oliver is a real pleasure to work with - always respectful and open minded, and patient in allowing me to try to improve my pose(ballet dancers are always self critical) .

Highly recommended, and I hope we will work together again. Thank You Oliver.

I am so so happy I got the chance to shoot with Oliver on my trip to London!

It was a last minute booking, but we managed to fit it in our busy schedules and produce some very high quality images that I am really happy with.

Oliver is an absolute gent! We met at the train station and walked to the studio together, and he also walked me back to the train after the shoot.

He's very creative and professional, knows what he wants, but he's open to the model's ideas too.

I had a lovely time and can't wait to shoot with him again next Spring!

Thanks Oliver! X
