Had a brilliant shoot with Michael at Neon Dreams Studio in Hook, so many amazing sets of weird fashion, fun seventies settle portraits, movement, neon lights and expressions, lingerie, even became a skater girl for a wee bit - the images are so damn COOL!

Micheal is really chilled, chatty, great to be around, very artistic mind, polite, and super cool - would highly recommend to all models!

Thanks again.

He is friendly, and super funny. I had a really great time shooting with him.

Pre coms we're excelent and very much appreciated when working so far from home.

Michael has joined me twice now on the Photofinca Trips to Spain and both times have been an absolute blast! He is such great fun to be around, he has a wicked sense of humour and a slightly crazy eye for images which I love.

He has a unique style and loves the quirky angles but equally can shoot straight up glamour/erotic/beauty and even fashion to an exceptional standard. His editing is flawless, one of the best I've ever seen!

A very talented photographer and a top guy to boot :)

Thanks for another fun trip Mike

Love, Tillie x

Had a wicked first shoot with Michael at my place, loved every minute of it. Within minutes of meeting him I felt comfortable in his company, and could tell he was chilled and genuine. Throughout the shoot he was respectful, inspired, and was so easy to pose for - his balance of direction/non direction, as well as his eye for good angles, made all the difference. We got some absolutely beautiful shots and I'm in love with them. Thanks Michael!

I had a great shoot with Michael on my Southern Tour in July.We had shot a couple of years ago so it was great to see him again and catch up. Michael is a super nice guy and so easy to get along with. We shot in his home and the time just flew by. I don't normally shoot glamour and it's a little outside my comfort zone, but Michael's work is of such a high standard I was happy and comfortable to do so with him. The images I have seen so far are wonderful, and there are a couple i saw on the back of the camera that I hope will be edited ;)

Thanks for a great shoot Michael, so lovely to see you again.

Highly recommended by me.

First time shooting with Michael today and it was great! Pre shoot communication was superb, he arrived early fully prepared and knew what he wanted to shoot.

I love how Michael works. Very professional and great at directing. He is very particular which really does make the overall image amazing.

Saw a few shots off the back of the camera and I'm really happy with them. Cannot wait to see the final images!!

Was a fun afternoon shooting. Michael is so easy to get on with. Nice, friendly guy, great laugh!

Great day.

Michael is a perfectionist in the best sense of the word, and I quite enjoyed receiving his very precise direction for some of our shots - such minor changes made such a difference to the final outcomes. As this was not my usual style of shooting, it was a real eye opener! And his delivery was sooo fast, most impressed.

Character-wise he was easy to get on with and had bags of patience with 2 of my pets who were used in a few sets we did. They are not the easiest to shoot, but I think we got some cool ones. Thank you so much for the opportunity to shoot with you (:

Had a wonderful time working with Michael yesterday and was great from start to finish.

He came up to cardiff for the day and we were chatting from the off. Pre communications were great and he was full of inspiration. Michael works efficiently and effectively and it was one of the more laid back shoots I've had for a long while. Ideas just flowed as well as some ungraceful attempts at somethings from my side ha! And although he made fun of my bedding he was still great to work with. Michaels work is brilliant and one i've admired for a while.

Thanks for a great day - awesome shoot and highly recommended! hopefully won't be our last shoot.

Wow! What a fantastic shoot. All pre-shoot arrangements were great, good contact, travel arrangements and location.

On the day, Michael was chatty, friendly and absolutely wonderful to work with! He knew what shots he wanted and has a good eye for making things look amazing, and he gave great direction.

I have received a few shots back already and they will be an excellent addition to my port - i can't WAIT to get the rest back. :)

Could not recommend this photographer more and i hope to work with him again myself in the future.

Had a fantastic shoot with Michael last night in a stunning African themed hotel room.

I was looking forward to shooting with Michael, his work is Awesome and you can tell he puts a lot of thought into his images and definately makes them his own.

Michael was great to work with, such a lovely guy, fantastic personality, had me laughing throughout the shoot. The shoot was very relaxed and we got through a number of different changes.

I had a look at a couple of the pics on back of the camera and they looked awesome.

It was a real pleasure working with a photographer that clearly has a passion for photography.

I would love to work with Micheal again

Highly Recommended by me.

Thanks again

Another mind-blowing shoot with Michael earlier this month. Great guy, friendly, fun, professional and a damn good photographer. Love working with him, the shoots are always relaxed, fun and we seem to make a great team together. I adore Michael's work and his editing skills are flawless.

This time we had a shoot in a boutique hotel alongside another photographer 'Paddy Shiel', the hotel room was stunning and it's safe to say the images from it are too. We also shot some studio glamour and funky stuff which was a laugh as Michael got me posing with a fluffy toy amongst hats and other props!

Really great fun!

Highly, Highly recommended and I look forward to shooting with again and again, hopefully :)

Michael and I first discussed shooting when I first moved to fleet. He was kind enough to take me to the Reading social and after that, we organised a shoot. He met me in Hook and we worked in a local studio. Pre-shoot comms were great, we exchanged ideas and knew what we were after. The shoot was fun and relaxed and was lucky enough to receive a couple of images so soon after the shoot and loved them! Highly recommended!

I've worked with Michael a few times now, this time at Scarlet door for a group workshop. Each time I've work with him is enjoyable and he is always full of his own unique ideas and produces amazing images!

Lovely guy and fantastic photographer, recommended by me!
