I have worked with Mike on a few occasions, both where he has been the photographer which he is brilliant at and also as a model. On this shoot organised by Gino Cinganelli we were part of a group shoot and were part of a prison chain gang. Mike played his part really well and is always great fun.

I look forward to working with Mike hopefully sometime soon.

Mike is usually the one behind the camera, but last weekend he played a fantastic role as a criminal from the chain gang in the group shoot organised and photographed by Gino. Mike really got into character and was a superb actor! I look forward to our next shoot together which will be very soon.

Highly recommended by me! :)

Worked with Michael once again recently on a western style shoot and it was such great fun! I have already seen many fab photos from the day and I'm sure there are many more to come!! :D

Michael is great to work with, respectful of the models and has an eye for detail as well as a few crazy ideas here and there but where's the fun in a shoot if you don't try something different ehh! :P

Highly recommended, and look forward to the next shoot together!

Really enjoy working with Michael, he is so easy to get along with and has some great ideas to make good images. Todays shoot was at a Western town, we were all socially distanced and Michael got some great photographs. It is always a pleasure to work with Michael and l hope to get the opportunity to do so again in the not to distant future.

Highly recommended.

What a wonderful shoot I had with Mike last week! After meeting him at a group shoot last month we stayed in touch and Mike approached with a wonderful shooting idea which involved a dog and me in tutu. From the moment he mentioned the idea I was 100% in and managed to find the perfect dog and studio to make this happen. And what can I say?! It was simply a joy to work with Mike on this brilliant and fun concept. The communication was spot on all the way through and I just loved that we shared the same enthusiasm working together on this project. The images we created are unique and Mike kindly shared them immediately with me. I really hope to work with Mike again in future. 100% recommended to all models and creatives!

Thank you so much Mike, it really was a great pleasure!

I had the pleasure of working with Michael this week on a shoot at Rochester Studios, what we created was magical! We worked together well to create some amazing images which I adore, we arranged to shoot a traditional Indian look and it did not disappoint! Lovely shots and such fun working alongside him. Time flew by! I do hope to work together again the the future. 100% recommended by me! If you haven’t yet shot with Michael you are missing out!

I worked alongside Michael today on a Poldark themed shoot he had arranged with a number of models. I have worked with Michael as both a photographer and as a character actor. Michael is a pleasure to work with, professional and exceptionally accomplished as a photographer. It is always fun to work alongside him and I would recommend him to anyone who has the opportunity to work with him particularly as a photographer, as well as an actor. Thanks for a great shoot Michael.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Mike again. We had the chance to shoot in an 1800's Wild West Town, which was so unique to other shoots I have done. Mike is so much fun to work with, he is friendly and professional! Highly recommend!

It was such a pleasure meeting Mike yesterday on a group shoot organized by Gino Cinganelli. Based on Carry on Camping, I was playing his pregnant daughter in the first scene and we were directly locked into a women's toilet together- what a great way to meet someone:D He did a fantastic job throughout the shoot and contributed much to the mood and fun we all had!

Highly recommended to all models, creatives and photographers. I'd love to work with Mike again, maybe creating our own project with him as a photographer - from what I can see here he is brilliant on both sides of the camera.

Photographer Gino Cinganelli

So I set up a photo shoot based on the 1969 film (Carry on Camping)

There were 20 scenes from the film I wanted to create.

When Mike said he wanted to be part of it I had no hesitation and cast him as the angry father of his pregnant daughter threatening by passers with a shotgun

He pulled it off perfectly.

Although Mike is a photographer I can saftey say he is a lovely friendly guy. 100% recommended to any model who books a shoot with him. He also takes great photos

Thanks for joining us.

I have had the opportunity to work with Mike on a few occasions, normally where he is taking the photos, today he was acting as well as taking some brilliant images.

Mike is a real professional who l look forward to working with again.

Highly recommended.

Mike is a man of many talents, 'Carry on Camping' was my first shoot and Mike was one of the main characters on set playing in the iconic movie. Being the consummate professional he made everything look easy. Mike played the angry father whose daughter is pregnant and did his scenes with utter ease. I really enjoyed watching his professionalism on set.

The shoot was an absolute joy and I learned a lot watching Mike and the other cast members go through their paces under the expert guidance of Gino Cinganelli. I would describe Mike as approachable and somebody who just knew what he was doing throughout.

100% recommended. I look forward to collaborating with you again soon.

Well, not only is Michael a terrific photographer, but he can play a part in front of the camera too. He was absolutely fantastic as a camper in Carry On Camping, and he took some fabulous photos too, whilst using a beautiful little camera that was masquerading as a 60s 35mm. Just goes to show it's the skill, not the equipment (a Carry On style joke there !!!). He's also a lovely guy and a good friend. Work with Michael !!

I had the pleasure of Mikes company again today, on a Carry On themed shoot organised by Gino Cinganelli. Mike is good company and a great photographer and it is always a pleasure to shoot with him on both sides of the camera.

Recently I attended my first public shoot that was kindly organised by Gino Cinganelli. The theme was 'Carry on Camping' and was based on the 1960's British movie classic. Mike was one of the main members in the cast and done a wonderful job in several of the key shoots on the day. I found him to be hugely enthusiastic and a larger than life character with limitless energy.

I would recommend Mike as a welcome edition to any shoot. For my first experience and he was just a joy to be around.

I've had the pleasure of working with Mike a couple of times recently, firstly on an evening sunset shoot at Reculver, Herne Bay on a Princess and Knights inspired shoot. Then secondly at a Carry on Camping inspired shoot at a cricket club in Maidstone, where he was both sides of the camera!

It's always such a pleasure working with Mike, he's so lovely and always produces great images so he comes highly recommended from me and we have some future plans for shoots on the horizon soon I'm sure! :)

Starlight Studios

I worked with Mike on a Gino Cinganelli shoot based on Carry On Camping and Mike was amazing to work with, very professional and very friendly.

Looking forward to working with him again.

Highly recommended.
