I had another great and successful shoot with Chris at pure preston. As usual he was very attentive and organised prior to the shoot also gathering clothing and accessories that would work perfectly for the theme.

We tried out some different styles and Chris was organised and set everything up ready for each set. I always enjoy working with Chris as it's a fun and relaxed atmosphere and you're guaranteed some fab images.

I'd definitely recommend him and look forward to future projects (:

I had an absolutely lovely shoot with Chris yesterday.

Chris is such a lovely guy and so easy to talk too and work with, he knows his stuff about lighting and takes the time to get the lighting right so you have perfect shots every time.

He's super relaxed and always had my comfort in mind, providing me with drinks, snacks and regular breaks.

His pre comms where excellent and we got some great shots, even despite the horrible weather it didn't stop him from getting to the studio ahead of schedule. He also gives direction perfectly but also allowed me to pose freely, letting me know the type of crop he was aiming for so i knew how to pose myself and get the best out of each click.

100% recommend and would work with him again in a shot.

Thanks for an awesome shoot Chris :)

Had a great shoot at Pure Preston with Chris. Incredible photographer and one of the best on purple port!

Gives fantastic direction, made me feel extremely comfortable during the whole shoot and is really easy to get along with. His talent, creativity and passion for photography shines in his images, which are awesome. His style of shooting is fantastic, and he really works hard to ensure each image is the best it can be. On top of that he's a really kind and fun guy.

Couldn't recommend Chris more and can't wait to work with him again.

I had another great shoot with Chris today, as usual he was very kind and helpful picking and dropping me off home. He's organised and works hard to achieve the look you want. We tried different lighting and ideas together to create some great images.

As usual he came prepared with a tablet to review images as we went along which is very helpful when trying to achieve a certain look. I'd definitely recommend Chris as I always enjoy shooting, have fun and come away with some excellent quality images!(:

I had another great shoot with Chris yesterday at a studio in Preston. His shoots are always very well organised and prepped to ensure a successful shoot. He chose the studio as I'd created a casting and was unsure on location, however it turned out to be a fantastic choice as the backdrops were perfect for the theme. Again he worked hard with lighting and props to create the correct/desired look for each shot, which turned out super. He was also kind enough and offer me a lift there and back which was very helpful and kind. I'm very pleased how the shoot went and I think we got some fantastic images. I'd definitely recommend Chris and certainly look forward to any future projects we may have (:

What can I say?! Chris has WONDERFUL pre-comms, great ideas (even if some of them frustrate his DIY skills! :D ) a very relaxed and friendly attitude to shooting, and an eye for an image! He was very very kind to me by still paying my rate despite train delays, and due to the train delays made sure I was back at the station on time for the return journey!

I cannot recommend this photographer enough! :) Fab! Looking forward to the next time!

Chris maintained comprehensive pre shoot communications during our planning,

He was very clear with what he wanted to achieve, conscious of getting the lighting right and letting me check the image after every set.

Willing to listen to my suggestions and a pleasure to work with!

I had another great shoot with Chris today and as usual he was very organised and had some good ideas in regards to shooting & location. (he was also kind enough to pick me up & drop me off home too) Eventhough this was our first location shoot and the weather was slightly shady he worked well to achieve nice lighting, colours & backdrops that complimented the outfits I had put together.

Again he's been very prompt and I've already seen the raw images and have picked my favourites. This was another fabulous & successful shoot and I would definitely recommend Chris to anyone looking for a good photographer! (:

I had my second shoot with Chris yesterday and it was great. When I arrived he had already set the lighting and necessary set up to be ready for shooting. We worked through a variety of fashion outfits & Chris was very patient when I wanted to review and re-do any shots that weren't quite right, which really helped to get the shots we both wanted.

I like working with Chris, as he has a relaxed but very professional attitude, which makes you feel comfortable infront of the camera, also making the shoot overall more fun. In addition I feel like there's a fair bit more free reign when shooting with Chris allowing you to experiment more with your ideas as well as getting exactly what you want shot wise & comfortably.

Again I'd definitely recommend Chris, as you're garenteed some great images & I look forward to hopefully working with him again!(:

Ive just had another shoot with Chris last week. It was a short shoot. The weather wasnt great. But he did not give up. His dedication, commitment and passion made these few pictures perfect.

I had my first shoot with Chris today and it was great. There was a friendly atmosphere which me feel at ease and comfortable through out, yet still maintaining a professional outlook that got the job done. I would definitely shoot with Chris again and would highly recommend!(:

I shot with Chris at a local studio today and was very pleased with the outcome. He was very professional, as he had everything prepared and set up before I arrived at the studio. I had the freedom to pose and to create the ideas I had ,which produced some really good quality images and the exact thing I was looking for. As a designer the freedom was somewhat important for this shoot to ensure I got the correct lighting, position and background that would really compliment my design work/garments and he helped me achieve all this with regular feedback. I'd work with Chris again as overall it was a great shoot and I got some really good images, would highly recommend.

Had another fabulous shoot with Chris yesterday. He truly is a great photographer. I absolutuly love how he puts effot into setting up and doing everything smoothly and perfectly. He always knows what he is doing. I am wishing him great success for his future and cant wait to work with him again soon.

I like chris's thinking style. Hes just like me. Very methodical and a perfectionist. He is always proffessional but at the same time he can make you laugh to death with his sarcastic jokes. I love how hes always so very well organised and knows what hes doing. He clearly is passionate about photography and his degree in photography is a bonus! Its been lovely working with him. We have done two shoots so far and will be doing more.

I had a great shoot with Chris this week! We want to Lytham St Anne's and had a lovely time! The backdrops were great and Chris was full of creative ideas! We both rarely shoot on location so this was a novelty for me!

Thanks Chris!

I had an awesome shoot today with Chris at my home, he travelled a good distance to come and work with me... So I didn't want to disappoint!...

Our shoot was booked in advance, but communication's were great everything was arranged properly and discussed!... He arrived on time, greeted me with a smile and was immediately friendly!...

Very respectful whilst in my home!....

We had lots of chat and giggles with some tea and got to shooting.

Chris is great photographer, working with simple set ups and really getting those pictures with care not just firing and hoping for the best!.... We got some really lovely shots and it really felt like we worked together to create them!...

I really enjoyed working with Chris .... I always felt comfortable around him at all times.... And yes I would certainly recommend him to other models!...

Hopefully we will work together again in the future! :)...

Thanks again Chris!

Had a brilliant shoot with Chris, great comms beforehand and leading up to the shoot, He kept me well informed and I knew exactly what was expected from the shoot.

The location was brilliant, and the shoot flowed really well, we had a really good day and achieved some amazing images to show for it! Chris is a really laid back and friendly guy, so easy to get along with and we had a great chat and a laugh throughout the day!

Loved the images we got, his lighting is incredible- makes your skin look flawless!!!! He has a great eye for detail and this really shows in his portfolio. Loved all the pictures we got from the day and he was so quick with showing me the edits! Recommend him to any models, and would work with him again and again!

I've actually lost count of how many times I have worked with Chris now but yesterday was our most recent creative venture and it has to be said that the awesomeness is still in full flow. Chris, as always, had fantastic communications with organization off to a tee... but that was just the beginning!

The light on this occasion was completely different to the various studios/location stuff we had tackled up to now but wowee - Chris nailed it beautifully as we got through a number of wicked high fashion/editorial looks using spontaneity as we went along. The backdrops were very different this time and required careful playing with angles to look the part, Chris has always applied incredible patience and skill when it comes to getting his images right whether it's adjusting controlled lighting setups until perfect or maneuvering himself to get that killer crop of an image with tremendous attention to detail. His eyes just work with the style of the shot to get it right and he owns one of the most technically able minds that I have ever known!

In a nutshell - a wonderfully professional photographer with whom I have a outstanding working rapport with. I can guarantee that all models who have not yet worked with Chris will love doing so when the time comes and would like to spam his page with this HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEE recommendation! :D

Thanks for another awesome shoot Chris!
