I had a great first shoot with Michael.

Pre shoot comms we’re fab and I knew what to expect on the shoot. Michael is easy to get along with and so easy to talk to. We chatted the whole way through the shoot.

He showed me BOC shots along the way. He is professional and friendly and we got some great images.

I can’t wait to shoot again.

Many thanks

First shoot with Michael today. Pre comms were excellent. What a fun shoot we had! Michael has some great ideas and is happy with any input too. He is a polite, respectful and down to earth guy. I look forward to our next shoot. Thanks Michael :)

Had my first shoot with Michael on Friday at my Studio (Shapeshifter Studios) he was such good fun to work with, incredibly chilled and I felt so comfortable the entire time.

He was very respectful and we worked together to come up with ideas that worked for both of us! Pre-Comms was also fantastic, he let me know what he wanted which gave me a starting point for packing outfits then we just went from there :)

Super quick turnaround time for the images and overall an excellent experience! Can't wait to shoot together again soon, thankyou! :D

Michael came to Shapeshifter Studios for a shoot with one of our models, Em Yang, for a range of levels & sets. He arrived on time and was really friendly, great to chat to and has a knack for making people feel comfortable! He was respectful of the location and looked after all the equipment used, returning the studio to the state he found it in. We would happily have him back at any time! Thankyou for a great day!

Michael is amazing photographer. He has a great eye, we used just a natural light and results were awesome. Time was running fast, we did some great stuff and I truly hope to see him next time! Thank you again for such a great photoshoot!

What a pleasant shoot I had with lovely Michael! I knew before the shoot it was going to be a good fun.

Michael is such a kind, funny and respectful gentleman. It was a great pleasure to work with Michael and I would love to shoot with him again.

We have created some amazing images too thanks to Michael's creativity and skills. Can't recommend him enough!

Thank you again :-)

I had a fantastic shoot with Michael, I am extremely new to all of this and he made me feel extremely comfortable. Friendly and such an upbeat personality which helped me feel at ease within 5 minutes due to being so nervous!

would 100 percent work with him again, just a lovely person in general!

I had another great shoot with Michael :) I have shot with him a few times now and he is always welcoming, professional and looks afters his models. He knows his lighting and angles very well and is serious about photography. Always a laugh and great chat! Look forward to shooting with you again soon. Highly recommended :)

Thanks Louisa

I worked with Michael at my home the other day and had a BLAST! It was our first time working together and I am always a little nervous, but needn't have been with Michael as he is just SO much fun, down to earth and arrived with a big smile! He is also so professional, kind and GREAT company! It was a 4 hour/half day shoot and I honestly could have spent all day nattering away as Michael is a very interesting soulful character! :)

Michael initially reached out to ask if I would be interested in a light painting shoot at our little studio "The Den studio" and of course I say YES! :) It had been a while since I had experimented with light painting and it was such a lovely change to my every day photography!

Michael arrived with these hilarious light sabers and a selection of very creative lighting techniques and a disco ball which was super fun to use for light painting in our blacked out studio and highly effective!

We managed to achieve some absolutely barmy, out of this world, psychedelic photographs which looked AMAZINGING whacky on slow exposure! We also experimented with a variety of fashion and nude photography in the studio. Michael gave great direction and is such a creative spirit with fantastic energy! :)

I would absolutely LOVE to work with Michael again- I had such a lovely day and went away smiling! A truly lovely guy and with a heart of gold! I hope we work together again soon. Highly recommended to all models and creatives. Thankyou again for a lovely shoot and I really look forward to the uploads!! :) Helen x

Fantastic 3rd shoot with Michael. This time we went to the local woods where we find so many fantastic locations to shoot at.

His pre comms were excellent, he is a gentleman from start to finish, polite, friendly, easy-going. Michael is very chatty and it helps to ease you into the shoot, he really is a pleasure to work with.

I really look forward to seeing the final results, the back of camera images looked great!

Thank you so much for fantastic shoot and hopefully we can work together again soon:)

I had a fantastic time working with Michael. He was great with pre comms and I was comfortable working with him.

We worked on a few concepts, collaborating on ideas and I love the images we created.

A great photographer and truly lovely person, I have no hesitation recommending Michael to All 😊

Thank you!

A lovely photographer who is a joy to work with. He was well organised sorting the shoot in advance, and is easy going and non-pushy. This is the second time we've shot but this time in the fab Fareham studios, where Michael made the most of furniture and props the studio offers and came up with some really original ideas which I wasn't sure would work but somehow they did! Hope to shoot again soon xxx

I had my first shoot with Michael at Fareham Studio and thoroughly enjoyed my time shooting!

His pre communications were perfect and he arrived with a great attitude raring to shoot. Michael was full of energy and really easy to get along with, I felt at ease immediately.

We covered some great lighting ideas with the help of Andy at the studio and achieved some great results. I hope to work with Michael again in future as it was such an enjoyable, creative few hours!

I’d recommend him to any model!

I had my second wonderful shoot with Michael at his home studio.

His pre-comms were fabulous. He sent me his concept for the shoot, so I could get an idea of what he was looking to achieve!

During the shoot I found Michael to be really enthusiastic, creative and concerned with creating beautiful imagery! He was lovely to work with and we both bounced ideas around and perfected the images nicely! We got some absolutely beautiful images!

I would certainly recommend Michael to other models and I'm looking forward to working with you again!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !

Thank you :)

I had a wonderful shoot with Micheal recently, he was very friendly and easy to talk to. The shoot was very creative and fun as well, he let me incorporate my own ideas alongside his and was just generally nice to work with.

I hope we can work together again, definitely recommended!

Jasmine High

I had a pleasure to work with Michael today.

We had an amazing first shoot, full of interesting conversations, jokes and beautiful images!

Communication before the shoot was perfect.

Michael is such a lovely person to work with! He is incredibly friendly, easy going with a positive attitude! He doesn't rush, which is amazing but instead he makes sure every image look beautiful. It was a really creative shoot, trying different things. I probably don't even need to talk about results that were mind blowing! Thank you!!

I would definitely recommend working with him and I'm looking forward to work with you again soon.

MICHAEL IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! 😊

My second shoot with Michael was such a success! We had a few unexpected set backs but none the less managed to pull through with some fab ideas and get that winning shot. Michael always surprises me with his creative eye and how versatile his ideas are. But most of all he is a great human will make you feel super comfortable and amuse you with lots of great convo!

I look forward to our next shoot

Had an absolutely wonderful shoot yesterday with Michael! It was a perfect day for a perfect picnic! Michael went above and beyond to put together this picnic themed, summers day shoot.

Michael had such great communications beforehand which prepared me for his great ideas with a mood board he carefully put together. Michael even stopped off on his journey to work with me to pick up fresh fruit and cake props,I was blown away with the thought and effort that went into this shoot.

Michael was lovely to work with,I cannot recommend shooting with him more,it was very relaxed with chatty in between which made for a good day ,such a friendly person who is very thoughtful of how his model feels during the shoot and about the images produced. I hope to shoot with Michael again soon!
