Glasgow July.

A friendly, enthusiastic model with a bubbly personality. I had a great time photographing Monika.

I would definitely book her again.

I was lucky to make a last minute booking with Monika when she was on Tour in Glasgow, and her arrangements were great.

We had a fantastic shoot and she was a dream to work with. Such a lovely person and natural model. I could not be happier with the images and think they are some of my best.

I am hoping we can work again soon and would not hesitate to recommend Monika to any photographer, amateur or professional. Fantastic!

After something of a gap since our last shoot, I finally had another shoot with Monika yesterday. Monika always lives up to all her profile notes and more, she is an absolute blast to work with. We had a highly productive 3 hours together. She has a vast array of outfits to choose from and is something of a quick change artist too, so no wasted time between sets.

An accomplished poser by herself, she will readily be directed as well, so it is easy to get good results.

Very highly recommended again from me, and I would hope to be shooting again with Monika in the near future.

Monika is adorable I would clearly love to adopt her! I had such a lovely morning with Monika she is so much fun and also a very talented and extremely versatile model. If you haven't yet worked with Monika make sure you do...you will have lots of fun and get some great images xx

This was my first shoot with Monika & my first nude photoshoot with a professional model, and she was amazing. First of all, she gave me an opportunity to work with her even after I told her that I was new to PP, my interest in developing myself as a nude photographer & that I was looking for a professional model that could help me out. At that time, I did not have any reference. Knowing how sensitive things like this are & how each model is very selective with whom they work nude, she invited me over, made me feel comfortable. She knew that it was my first nude photoshoot with a professional model (I’ve only practice with friends before her & I was nervous AF) & she made me feel extremely comfortable like if we have known each other for years. I had problems with the public transportation that made me arrive 15min later & while I was freaking out worrying that I was late, she was very chill & understanding. She is very professional, energetic, open to ideas, easy to work with, respectful & will make your photoshoot a fun time while working.

I fully recommend her & I’m totally looking forward to work with her again.

I had a fabulous shoot with Monika whilst she was in London last weekend. Monika was a lovely, warm & friendly person to work with but it was her professional attitude, superb posing and excellent range of expressions which enhanced and elevated each pose. We worked well together and she came up with poses I hadn’t even thought of.

Monika arrived full of enthusiasm, all made up and looked stunning from the start. She’d came with all the items I’d requested so we were able to shoot many. scenarios in a busy but very enjoyable few hours.

Monika was nothing short of perfection for what I was after and I thoroughly recommend her to everyone.

Thanks Mon 🙏

This was my first shoot with Monika, and she is one of only a few models that I've worked with that you strike an immediate rapport with, soon falling into a steady working rhythm together. Monika is pleasantly chatty, easy to work with, receptive to ideas, very natural, confident, and poised. Our pre-shoot comms were excellent, Monika was ready for the shoot, and had an excellent choice of outfits to choose from. This was a home shoot, and with large windows in her apartment the natural light was ideal for photography, and we have created some excellent images together. I would recommend Monika to any serious photographer.

Monika is a fun, charming and experienced model, a delight to work with. She moves gracefully between taking instruction and creating her own poses, she knows how to move and this shows in her portfolio.

If you are a beginner or very experienced Monika is well worth your time, we laughed a lot and at the same time created so great work.

I forget how many excellent shoots I've had with Monika, and our recent shot in a stunning apartment in the city was no exception. Mon is fun to shoot with and wildly creative.

I can highly recommend her to all on this group.

First shoot with Monika - and what an amazing model to work with; she is creative, hard working, professional, flexible - and not only that, Monika is a lovely, friendly person.

Great apartment with perfect light and shooting spaces - the panoramic views of Leeds did their best to distract me from Monika (not for long, I might add).

Thanks Monika - see you for another shoot soon :)

This was my 6th shoot with Monika going back to 2017.

As always Monika was fully prepared based on the Moodboard we had discussed in advance.

Monika is a briliant model to work with, she is very open to ideas, amazingly postive and works extemely hard during the shoot to create images you will love.

On top of this she is great fun.

I can't recommend Monika enough, planning shoot 7 already.

Shot with Monkia Lara for the first (and not the last) time today, at the ever fabulous Studio Fifty Eight.

From the first moment she was bright and bubbly, friendly outgoing and enthusiastic about shooting. She had brought along a huge suitcase of all sorts of outfits and accessories for a wide variety of looks so I was spoiled for choice.

Monika Lara is very aware of angles and light and poses beautiful without any direction. We chatted briefly about what I wanted to achieve with each look before we started and she took the nugget of an idea and ran with it bringing her own amazing personality to the shoot.

I would highly reccomend Monika Lara as a versatile friendly and easy to work with model. I'm very much looking forward to working with her again later in the year.

I shot with Monika on her weekend at Studio Fifty-Eight.

I have worked with Monika many times now, and it is always a fun experience! She is such a lovely model, very energetic and enthusiastic, and happy to try different shots and styles. She always has lots of lovely lingerie and outfits to create some great shots, as well as the figure to create some stunning art nude images.

As always, Monika is highly recommended by me, and i look forward to our next shoot! :)

I finally got to work with Monika at Studio 58 in Kettering at the 3rd time of asking due to the on/off covid restrictions. It was certainly worth the wait!! I had a great shoot with Monika and the time just flew by.

A very professional friendly model I highly recommend Monika can't wait to shoot again
