I had the pleasure of working with Nausicaa on Monday and absolutely adored every second of it. She was incredibly welcoming throughout the time we spent shooting at her flat and posed so fluidly that I almost felt like a fly on the wall whilst she elegantly moved from one to the next.

The flat was really well prepared ahead of time and Nausicaa really engaged with every single shot we strived to get, effortlessly oosing confidence and professionalism.

On top of how wonderful she is as a model, Nausicaa was great to talk to throughout, and there were some lovely moments of laughter to break up the shoot, especially when it came to being close to the wonderfully warm radiator.

I had a blast with Nausicaa; a stunning model, person, and I cannot wait to work with her again in the future!

A bit of theme here. The 3 references below this say "A Lovely shoot..." "Had a wonderful shoot.." "Had a great time shooting..." And I too had a fantastic, successful, enjoyable time shooting Nausicaa.

You can judge her look from her pictures, it's one which suits what I do, any idea I gave her she shaped into something great, and I am now up to my ears in good pictures - my editing backlog just got worse! A wonderful attitude to modelling and just a pleasure to work with, so another whole hearted recommendation here.

A lovely shoot this morning with Nausicaa. She had clearly read my shoot plan and brought all the outfits that I requested. Her interpretation of the sets that I had described was beautiful, as she posed with what stuck out as her own unique style. She flowed effortlessly from pose to pose, not requiring any direction, but responding positively when it was given. Nausicaa was professional, but also fun to be with on the shoot, and the time flew by. I'm happy to recommend Nausicaa to other photographers and studios. The images that we shot this morning are beautiful, and I'm delighted with them. Thank-you Nausicaa.

Had a wonderful shoot today with Elena, and I am very impressed by her professionalism. One of the best pre-shoot communication from requesting mood boards, styling details right down to getting model release signed. It was a pleasure working with her. Her expressions, the way she emotes poses comes from the fact that she loves acting. Excellent in her own makeup and hair styling, she is a model I would recommend to everyone. Thank you Elena.

Professional from the outset, communication was excellent and what I expect from someone dedicated to this job.

Everything was organised and and nailed down before we shot, this made the shot very simple which is great as it allowed us to get straight into it.

A great host who knows how to move and get her body into the right shapes.

Was a pleasure to work with and is very much recommended.

I replied to a casting that Elena had made a few weeks ago, but all the slots had already gone, but luckily she set up another casting a short while later. As soon as the new casting came through I confirmed my attendance and I think I got first choice of slots.

All the pre shoot comms were very business like but friendly. The studio lighting has a biased to natural light, unfortunately on the day of the shoot the weather was dark and dismal; however, between the two of us I still managed to get some great results.

Elena is very easy to work with and totally professional and I hope to work with her again in the future.

Highly recommended.

Excellent shoot with Nausica today. A very professional model who knows how to pose as well as respond to suggestions for change. Well organised and great fun to work with. Very highly recommended.

One word reference: PERFECTION!

But that's not my style so, dear reader, you're going to get a big bag of other words. Strap in . . .

Elena is PERFECTION!

PER. FEC. TION.

I'd wanted to work with Elena for aeons. You only need to see a single image to know she's right proper top notch 'n all!

I'd steadily built up a whole chunk of anticipation. Elena's awesome. A shoot is booked. Plans are made (in my head). Plans are abandoned (in my head) due to imposter syndrome. More plans are made.

And lo, it came to pass. Light through yon studio window shone . . .

Due to a couple of factors (all mine) our FIRST shoot was nowhere near long enough. To be honest, if we'd shot until she, me, or both had crumpled into a heap, it wouldn't have been long enough.

Elena has an energy. A life force. A twinkle. All undeniable. Elena is unique. She has so much natural physical beauty that modelling simply has to be her vocation. But, as we all know, looks aren't even half of the requisite for a dynamic and successful model. The other, very important, aspects include skills, personality and a 'je ne sais quoi' aura. Elena has every single one of them. In spades!

My photography knees went weak and wobbly. I, stupidly, decided to try out lots of new-to-me lighting ideas.

Elena took every single idea I came up with in her beautiful stride. She requires zero direction but took on board this chancer photographers directions with the most fabulous good grace.

Within the limited time we had (on our FIRST shoot - as mentioned previously) we captured a HUGE number of glorious images. There is no way on earth I could be happier.

Every single second spent working with Elena is a joy. She is the consummate professional but with a beautiful, warm personality.

Elena is great company, a fantastic (the best) model and leaves behind a joie de vivre that is second to none!

Elena is, simply, beyond recommendable. If you don't get to work with her then your life will be poorer.

Roll on our SECOND shoot. I. CANNOT. WAIT.

Huge thanks Elena xxx.

A JOKER!!!!

That's the best way to describe this wonderful, talented, funny creative model!

I contacted Nausicaa when she out her casting up and to my surprise she loved my idea and communication before the shoot was excellent making sure make up and hair was how I wanted it.

When the day came she immediately was very accommodating to her beautiful home and after we set up immediately started shooting. All I can say she is such natural with very expressive artistic poses and would always give me the best visuals.

Between takes she is a very funny, down to earth person who constantly kept my energy up making me laugh so much. The shoot went really fast but I could of gone on for another hour which is always a good sign.

I am so grateful to have shot with her and would love to shoot with her again in the future.

Highly recommended! No photographer will be disappointed with this awesome, super cool young lady!

Had a very enjoyable and productive first shoot with NausicaaYami recently at my home studio.

Communication prior to the shoot was excellent and she arrived with items to match the mood board I had supplied . On the day I immediately found her easy to get on with. She is professional, down to earth,and a joy to work with . She has a great look, confident, poses naturally with or without direction. But she also has ideas of her own and definitely contributes to the shoot.

We got through several sets on the day creating many great images

Would love to work with her again sometime.

Highly recommended.

I just had a brilliant shoot with Elena today. She is a very professional, creative and experienced model that knows her angles and poses, and understands light and composition. She also has a wonderfully diverse wardrobe that complemented my desired aesthetic. She is a lovely person and a joy to work with. Highly recommended!

I had a great shoot with Elena at her flat two weeks ago. We were fortunate to get some great light. Elena poses effortlessly with presence and emotion. I came away with multiple portfolio worthy shots in a few hours.

Highly recommended. Thanks Elena!

My first ever shoot with Elena in her home studio went better than I thought it would. I expected it to be an amazing to shoot anyway because of the lovely natural light and Elena’s modeling. But there is much more to explore both in the studio and the brilliant model herself. This resulted in a shoot that wasn’t good - it was excellent! You will find many surprises in store as you experiment in her studio. If you love natural light, a model who is one of the best on purpleport and easy to work with, you need to book a shoot to appreciate what I’m saying!

I had a wonderful shoot with Nausicaa.

Four hours shooting at her flat with natural light, and we never ran out of ideas. Highly organised, making setting up a shoot really easy. Very very quick to pick up and develop an idea. Such a talented model, and such a lovely person to work with.

I'm already planning more shoots. One of my favourite models ever.

I had the pleasure of working with Elena on a fashion shoot on location in London, among some of the wonders inside the Natural History and V&A museums. This lady is an absolute star as, with the weather outdoors against us, we navigated passers-by and shot some cracking images.

This lady is an absolute star. Bringing a couple of outfits to change into she effortlessly produced great poses, transitioning them ever so slightly to fantastic effect. I could not have been happier with the work we produced and hope we can arrange another shoot very soon!

Elena is very easy to get along with, looks incredible, knows exactly what works and was a brilliant choice for this shoot.

100% RECOMMENDED!

I shot with Nausicaa just before Christmas last year. Her communications prior to the shoot were excellent and helpful, covering all the practicalities like styling, moodboards, location and image use.

On the day, she was extremely friendly and welcoming, and had a range of potential shoot outfits ready to consider. Nausicaa poses effortlessly and has a natural ability to work with the light to give you the best results.

Overall though, I think the best thing I can say is that the shots we got are some of my favourites of last year. If you get the opportunity, shoot with her, do it!

Had the pleasure of welcoming the beautiful Elena to the studio today with her photographer Paul.

Elena worked an 8 hour set with Paul (with breaks) and from what I could see, BOC, looked stunning in every scene.

The two of them worked round a few of my sets and it seemed like they had a very successful shoot.

Elena is a confident, petite, well proportioned model with an incredible look and poses well without direction.

I would happily welcome Elena back to the studio and hope to work with her myself in 2022.

Incredible is how I start my reference about this model! She’s a photographers dream. Communication before the shoot went with ease. I was welcomed into her home which was a great place to shoot. Lovely natural light and the bathroom was an especially nice place to take pictures. Elena really is the best model I’ve had the pleasure of shooting with for quite some time. She had many wonderful outfits. She posed and moved well and very naturally. She has a fantastic figure and beautiful face. The majority of the pictures I could use. The ones I couldn’t use are the blurry ones and no fault of Elena. You wouldn’t be disappointed working with this model and I would really like to work with her again sometime. Definitely recommended!!

Huge apology for taking so long to post feedback.

Elena is a cool cat, and aside from my own photographer (setup) problems, she was a joy to work with. Will be looking forward to doing something again with her at some point this year. Next time will be better prepared.
