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! :)

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.

I have worked with Mike before where he was behind the camera as a brilliant photographer but he ‘swapped sides’ to play a role in a large themed shoot - ‘Carry on ‘Again’ Camping. Mike played the angry father and did a brilliant job of looking and acting the part. Mike is great to have on set as he is a team player, friendly professional and helpful. I hope to work with Mike again.

Photographer Gino Cinganelli

Mike and I worked on a shoot together yesterday. We had a bit of time together before the model arrived and we sat and chatted. Mike is a lovely guy, friendly chatty and an interesting man.

Once our model arrived we were straight to it, sharing ideas, lighting setups and poses.

Mike is a relaxed confident photographer who can create some cracking images.

Mike was a total pleasure to work with and I have no hesitation recommending him to any model.

Thank you for a great shoot

Another lovely shoot with Mike this afternoon :)

Always a pleasure catching up with him, he is a total gent and really friendly too :)

We always have a good natter and produce some lovely images together! Would more than happily recommend him to others and hope to catch up with him again soon!

LeahMeraki

I have worked with Mike a few times now mostly on group shoots and this time it was yet another group shoot, full of laughs and lots of twisted humour which we all loved. Mike is great to work with, a fab photographer and a true gent - what more could you ask for?!

If you haven't worked with him yet then do so, he's lovely! I hope that we can get the chance to work with one another on a more 1 to 1 basis at some point but it's always a pleasure to see him at group shoots of course.

Until next time, which I'm sure won't be too long! :D

I had another fantastic shoot with Mike, this time it was all set around the "Red Carpet" event. Mike has captured some wonderful images. Not only is Mike a brilliant photographer, he is great to work with. Hope to work with him again in the future. Highly recommended.

Had a really great shoot with Mike at Rochester studios.

Ideas were well planned out and as a result the shoot had a clear direction. Time flew by and we shot loads of great themes and concepts. I also enjoyed bouncing ideas off each other.

Can’t wait to work with him again in the future.

I recommend!

Rena Hart

I worked on a group themed shoot with Mike which was a lot of fun. It was the premier of an adult film with just over 40 people involved and improv acting. Mike has a brilliant personality and is a joy to be around!

A pleasure to work with!

I look forward to shooting alongside him again!

100% Recommended by me!

Today I was very lucky to work on an 1:1 shoot with Mike from Rochester Studios!

Mike is a very professional, polite and fun photographer !

I really enjoyed working together using many different backgrounds and also experimenting with flash photography and gels !

We’ve worked on a series of photographs from portraiture, fashion, implied and art nude !

The photographs on the back of the camera looked fantastic and were well framed and with good lighting!

On the top he Mike has great taste in music :D

Needless to say Mike comes very highly recommended by me and would be a real pleasure to work together again in the future!

Thank you very much for today

Irida :)

It's always fun to work with Mike. He was great to work with him once more at The Fort. He is a marvellous photographer. His quirky ideas are delightful, and he is always receptive of new ideas and input. I am looking forward to the next time !

Lovely to work with Mike again on this 70s group shoot. He was completely in the vibe of the day, and took some fabulous photos. It's always a pleasure to work with him.
