I just have to give Monika a reference, booked an hour as part of a Sandon Studio day not having shot her before and wasn't prepared for the fun exciting session with this very talented model, beautiful, full of ideas and a spirit and kindness I haven't seen before, got amazing images shes full of ideas (especially on an exercise ball) and just a lovely person. Wish her all the best in modelling and will try to catch up on future days, go Monika!

Had a great shoot with Monika at the weekend. She is really friendly and chatty and has a great energy about her. From crazy handstands to elegant beauty, she can do it all. Until next time....

I’ve just finished a lovely shoot with Monika. A truly professional model who delivered some awesome results, but with fun, laughs and giggles along the way. I’m thrilled with the images and hope to work with her again in the future. Pre-shoot communications were excellent, Monika was clearly up to speed with the shoot plan that I had sent, which helped the shoot flow on the day. Happy to recommend this awesome model.

Had my second shoot with Monika. This time at her model weekend at Sandon Studio.

As always Monika is great fun to work with. Full of energy, enthusiasm and lots of ideas for shots!

She has a wonderful suitcase of lingerie, dresses and outfits! :)

We took a nice mix of shots in the house and out in the beautiful gardens, making the most of the sunny weather!

I would recommend Monika to everyone and hope to work with her again soon :)

Our short one hour shoot at Sandon Studios flew by, but the amazingly flexible Monika really helped to make the best use of our time together. Monika has a great sense of humour and made the shoot really enjoyable while we worked. I would highly recommend her to any photographer looking for an experienced model.

I shot Monika for the first time yesterday at Sandon Studio. She was fun and very easy to work with and I have some great images. I expect that I will be working with her again.

Mon modelled for a group studio day yesterday, and was wondeful. Mon was friendly and funny, making the atmosphere relaxed and pleasant. She worked really hard and took few breaks, accepting direction and making creative suggestions - including offering to make athletic poses that broke all the rules of workplace "health and safety."

Monika modelled at a group shoot I attended last week. Monika was a star all day, she worked so hard and managed to keep everyone happy all day.

Personally I had the best time, her infectious happiness and sometime bonkers charisma was a joy, such fun!

She worked really well with photographers of all levels and was extremely kind and patient with everyone.

I would highly recommend working with her to anyone looking to book her and I am already looking forward to working with her again.

Monika modelled at our DPS Studio day where we all shot her on a 1 to 1 basis throughout the day. An extremely attractive young lady with an infectious personality. A real 'fun type gal' who got along with everyone. Energetically posing all day long - giving us all a wide range of super images. Top model and a joy to be around - I definitely recommend her! Thanks Monika

I had a fun shoot with Monika. She's good at posing with little direction and is physically flexible. She seemed to enjoy the shoot, and it came through in the photos.

I completed my 5th shoot with Monika and well... I might as well just refer you to my previous references.

As previously - Everything was good, nothing bad! OK except for the rain the night before which doused my hopes of an outside shoot. Monika was still more than willing to accomodate regardless - but I just hate mud!

As previously, the shoot was amazing and the time just flew by, also Monika couldn't care less that I made her start at 5.20am - again. Great conversation, biccies and coffee all included. Even some messing about with silly faces between poses. And boy can she make devouring an egg artfully erotic.

As previously, Monika's energy, posing and flow was effortless. I wouldn't expect anything less from her any more and she never fails to deliver.

As previously, she'd booked an apartment a stone's throw from me and also as previously... resistance was utterly futile!

Thank you Monika, for being so entertaining :-). See you next time.

My first shoot with Monika and I can only echo all the positive things everyone else has said about her.

Pre-shoot communications were excellent, varied refreshments available on the day and she happily threw herself into shooting with the musical instruments with great aplomb. Happy to listen to what I wanted and more than happy to throw her own ideas into the mix as well with humour and intelligence, the shoot absolutely flew by and left me wishing I'd booked longer.

I will definitely be working with Monika again when she's down here and highly recommend her to everyone else.

We had a great shoot together - it was the first time I did a model shot in a flat which presented new challenges and ideas to think about. Monika was up for experimentation with angles and lighting to get different looks. I got the image I wanted for an exhibition and I think Monika will like it too.

On a hot May afternoon in Dublin I had my second shoot with the wonderful Monika. She is simply a delight to work with and is such good company, her figure is sublimely supple, the expression(s) to camera simply mesmerising & her professionalism is unquestionable. Looking forward to future collaborations. :-)

I had the pleasure of having my first shoot with Monika today.

After excellent communication and planning, the shoot was very productive and great fun.

Monika was very proactive in producing the fabulous images. Monika listened very carefully to what types of images I needed to achieve, and worked very hard to achieve this.

I was blown away by Monika's sense of humour, intelligence and a wonderful sense of empathy to my feelings during the shoot.

During the shoot Monika had on offer biscuits including chocolate ones, tea, coffee and even herbal tea. The whole experience was just a wonderful way to spend an afternoon while at the same time producing very edgy artistic work.

I am already looking forward to Monika's next visit to Ireland. I will certainly be shooting with Monika again, and totally recommend her to others as well

Had my 4th shoot with Monika this morning at a Liverpool apartment. As usual Monika was on top form with some bendy poses and facial expressions. Monika is a real joy to work with so much so our fifth shoot is already in the planning stage. Highly recommended. Thanks again Monika for another superb shoot.
