I had my first shoot with Mike today and it was an absolute pleasure.

Mike invited me to his lovely home which is ideal as a home studio - he was waiting for me at the train station when I arrived and we instantly got along really well.

Mike is laid back and works at a steady pace, nothing is a rush. He is very friendly, talkative and easy to work with.

We covered many different sets and Mike showed me the images on the back of the camera throughout our shoot, the images I saw looked amazing and I can not wait to see the processed results! 4 hours just dissapeared!

We have already agreed and have plans for another shoot.

I 100% recommend Mike, a lovely man and a very talented photographer!

Fantastic shoot with Mike today. We squeezed loads into our two hours which was brilliant.

We shot in his home studio, which is very well equipped with different backgrounds and lighting to suit different atmospheres.

Mike himself was very accommodating. I didn't want for anything while I was there.

Looking forward to seeing the final results, as well as our next shoot together.

What a great shoot I had with Mike yesterday. He is a dream to work with and we have worked so well together as a team and have achieved variety of amazing images!

He is very polite, professional and made me feel very welcomed. He has lovely studio with different backgrounds, lighting and and props! I would highly recommend working with him if you get a chance! Definitely would like to shoot with Mike again on another project!

I had my first shooting with Mike couple of days ago, after I’ve discovered him on PurplePort, I simply wanted to work with Mike after I saw all the guitars and props he’s got, to create some rock images, something different.

Now I can truly say that I should have contact him before! I’m so pleased and satisfied with all the work done and all the images we made, our day together went fast and we could’t even use all the outfits or working on all the ideas.

So we will have another time together soon, I hope.

Mike is absolutely recommended! Really nice person, well prepared and personally was very patient with me, while I was changing clothes or playing with his cat on set :)

I had such a good day, thank you very much Mike!

Wow what a fab guy! I have wanted to work with Mike for a while and was pleased when he answered my pinup casting call.

Precomms were excellent and we both had a good plan of the shoot in mind, upon arrival I was offered refreshments And mike was courteous and professional. We bounced ideas off each other the whole time. He has some fantastic props and he is really fun to work with.

I have no reservations about recommending mikr to all models. Grab your chance to work with him!

Just got home from a wonderful few hours shooting with Mike, it’s been a great day!

Pre communication, studio and props are excellent.

Mike made me feel welcome the second I arrived, friendly and kind throughout the day with lots of laughter.

We even have an idea for our next shoot, super excited to work together again.

Highly, highly recommend.

This was organised with an different who I made up the second model so am unable to comment on the pre com's however having previously worked with Mike I am sure they were excellent.

I had a fantastic shoot with Mike, He had put so much effort into the shoot including additional props and equipment which really paid off. Love the image I've seen so far! A very successful shoot. Awesome Photographer and a great person to work with. Highly reccomended by me! Smile Thank you Mike.

I organised a rock/grunge shoot with mike and another model. Communication before the shoot was excellent and he had lots of ideas to contribute towards the shoot which included different backgrounds and different lighting techniques. He was great with suggesting poses that would work and was able to supply the props we needed (the guitars and amplifiers). Had such a fun shoot, mike is a very friendly guy. Would recommend working with him.

Had a wonderful second shoot with Mike at his and absolutely loved working with him again.

Mike is relaxed, completely respectful, and an all round nice person - I feel completely at ease in his company and he is a pleasure to work with, making it really easy to focus on posing :)

He has a really great eye for style too, we shot various different styles and I especially liked our rock chick theme which he had picked some great props for!

Mike clearly knows his way around a camera and lighting too - he knew what he was after and nailed it, and from the back of the camera, the shots looked amazing!!

Thanks Mike!

Had a fab shoot with Mike. He is very talented with lighting and I'm so happy with the shots we've ended up with.

Mike was professional throughout. Respectful while changing even though we were going to be shooting nude anyway. He was also well prepared and clear with what he wanted to achieve.

Here's to hoping that shoot will be the first of many.

Definitely recommended

I had my first shoot with Mike and thoroughly enjoyed it. After I got off the train to Bournemouth, he very kindly picked me up from the station (and dropped me off after!)

Mike is a very laid back photographer, friendly and although I bought a selection of outfits with me, he had tons for me to shoot in too which was great :)

The shoot flew by - from what I've seen, the images we took looked brilliant ... Can't wait to see them finished :)

Highly recommended,

Thank you.

I had another great shoot with Mike! when i turned up to the shoot he was very prepared and as before we had a coffee (he even remembered how many sugars i have!), we discussed our plan of action for the shoot and he had arranged a wardrobe for ideas we had previously discussed. In contrast to our last shoot which was bridal, we shot some 'rock chick' and he supplied some amazing accessories in keeping with the shoot and some fantastic props, including an electric guitar and some Marshall amps... which helped to create some superb images! I do hope to shoot with Mike again and again!! He is just fantastic to shoot!! and anyone that has the pleasure to is extremely lucky! x thanks again

Miss mae_

Had a really great shoot with Mike today he was professional and very welcoming! He even let me in early :)

I had a lot of fun on today's shoot and hope to work with him again in the future I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone thanks so much for today

I had a fantastic shoot with Mike last Friday. It was first experience at shooting bridal and it was an amazing one! I absolutely loved it! Mike provided 2 beautiful dresses and a lot of lovely wedding accessories that really added something special to the images!

Mike was very prepared and we had a coffee and a chat before we started shooting to get a good idea how our shoot was going to go! This was amazing as we where both on the same page throughout the shoot and it felt very relaxed and productive!

As agreed Mike has posted me a cd with all the images on and I can't wait to sit down and have a look through them!

I look forward to my next shoot with Mike and would HIGHLY recommend this very talented photographer x

Mike is great; I have shot with him several times now, and had an awful lot of fun on every shoot - this time, I travelled down to his beautiful house in Bournemouth area to get creative for a few hours. He had various awesome lighting set ups, and some great ideas, we had a giggle, and got some brilliant images! Highly recommended to all models!
