Just got back from my first shoot with Vanesa and I cannot recommend this model enough. Pre shoot comms were great and she turned up with a superb and well suited outfit which she could alter to enhance the different phases of the shoot.

Her fluidity in posing was superb and came so naturally that you could tell she was an experienced model. Her facial expressions were spot on at all times and she could change from happy smiley to sultry in a heart beat.

On top of all that she was a fun person to work with and gave 100% at all times.

I fully recommend you work with Vanesa. We were already talking about the next shoot when we finished this one and I am looking forward to it already :-)

This was my first shoot with Vanesa although we have met before, we did a location shoot in the woods.

It was a really fun shoot, we got through a lot of looks and outfits, and time really flew!

Vanesa takes direction well, and also brings her own ideas if necessary, all you need for a successful shoot!

I applied to Vanesa's casting as her PP style & attitude impresses me. Happily Vanesa agreed & our pre-shoot communication was good. We agreed on Vanesa's suggestion for location and I am glad I did because it was superb. A minor hitch, access denied at 7am so we walked maybe 3 miles to site but this gave us opportunity to chat & also exercise (two for one personal trainer and model!). I found Vanesa personable and this gave me confidence we would achieve some decent results.

Even more so when she laid out numerous style options, they all appealed to me so we agreed & shot the lot! Vanesa exceeded my expectations in terms of posing and expression, she needs no direction but absorbed & delivered any minor tweaks I suggested. We had fun & laughter shooting, a bumble bee photobombed a portrait & a fisherman passed through just as Vanesa being 'Sexy cop' (wait and see the results) "She'll need to see your license" I joked "Good" he replied. I even managed to keel over to one side at one point (appropriate when shooting a boatwreck).

Vanesa's enthusiasm and commitment to achieving the best results is highly recommended. I look forward to collaborating again. Thank you Vanesa!

At last! I've been wanting to work with Vanesa for ages. It happened yesterday - and it was well worth the wait. Mind you, I knew it was going to be a good 'un; Vanesa's pre-shoot commnications had been excellent so, yesterday, we were able to hit the ground running.

We did a 'posh dress at a posh location' shoot. Vanesa looked the part - she looked ever so posh and ever so expensive! Her look was enhanced by her excellent make-up and well-styled hair, added to which she had a really good eye for styling. (And she's got really good skin, so editing the pics is going to be easy!)

Throughout the shoot Vanesa was enthusiastic, energetic and creative (she had loads of good ideas, many of which worked better than my own ideas). And with her sparkling personality and great sense of humour, she was a joy to work with.

Great shoot - very productive and hugely enjoyable. Thanks, Vanesa!

After trying to shoot with Vanesa for well over a year (damn you, Covid!), we finally managed to set up a shoot over the Bank Holiday weekend. Shooting with Vanesa was definitely worth the wait!

Fantastic pre comms, highly organised and imaginative, Vanesa came with an absolutely gorgeous look on the day and beautifully done makeup. She'd kindly sourced a lot of props and outfits for the shoot which really brought the look together and she embodied her evil queen character perfectly. Vanesa chose an incredible location for our shoot and arrived on time and ready to go. And Vanesa's portfolio notes are right - the camera does love her!

Vanesa's posing is off the chain! She moves effortlessly without any direction and has a fantastic range of expressions that she uses to not only model her character but to BECOME that character. Not afraid to get stuck in, Vanesa was scrambling over rocks and through scraggly brush without worry - all whilst in bare feet and an evening gown. Now that's dedication!

She really works hard to get the best shots possible and bring something extra special to the shoot. Her knowledge of lighting was a huge help given the very bright sunshine that day and Vanesa knew exactly where and how to position herself to avoid the hard light. She was also conscious of safety whilst we were working, making sure both I and my assistant were safe if ever we were shooting from height. Our motto for the day was 'Nobody die!'.

The best part about working with Vanesa though isn't just her modelling skills. It's her lovely personality and she also happens to be hilarious - what a cracking sense of humour! Bubbly, fun, chatty and warm, I felt immediately comfortable in her company and after the first thirty minutes, it felt like I'd met up with an old friend. Shooting with Vanesa was truly a breath of fresh air and we're already planning on a second shoot for the future. The shots look awesome and I can't wait to show her what we got.

Would I recommend Vanesa? A thousand times yes! If you haven't booked in to work with Vanesa yet, why not? You need to!

Thanks so much again for a brilliant day Vanesa - we had a blast!

Vanesa came to shoot with an eye for beauty at the studio and I had plenty of time to chat with her and see some of her modelling. She comes with lots of ideas and a great case of clothes etc to choose from. She knows what works well for her when it comes to posing and is fun to be around. I enjoyed having her at the studio and look forward to seeing more from her.

An Eye for Beauty

A shoot long in the making - it was originally arranged 4 months ago, but ...

Vanesa travelled for 4 hours to shoot with me, and I thought it was well worth it and I hope she did! Communications beforehand were excellent, and I received all the details of her complex journey and times of arrival, and on the day several texts to assure me she was on her way. Then at the station this amazing young woman stood before me. It was a mere 5 minutes by car to the studio, and coffee and chat was the order of the day. Vanesa's make up was enhanced and we were raring to go. I am usually highly organised but this time it was lovely to go with the flow and follow Vanesa's leading to costumes and scenarios - even choosing a lovely hand made robe on display in the studio. Vanesa herself had brought lots of items including quite a number of new outfits and we had a stab at covering quite a lot, leaving some for 'next time'! I have come away with some very different images from my normal work and look forward to editing, in both artificial and natural light. Vanesa was friendly and relaxed and great to talk with. All too soon it was time to get to the station for that return journey. Thanks, Vanesa - see you again!

Vanesa and I shot together last Friday, the first fashion shoot out of lockdown and she was like a breath of fresh air both in personality and talent. With good comms from the start, we met, had a chat, planning the order in which we were going to shoot, and then hit the first location. Vanesa is prepared, articulate, fun, and takes direction well. She also has many expressions which means you never get the same shot twice! We shot for over 4 hours both on location and in the hotel creating many great images. I look forward to seeing Vanesa’s image selection and then being able to show some of her talent. Thank you Vanesa for a great shoot. I would highly recommend Vanesa.

It was really good to shoot with Vanessa after so many months of lockdown. Our ways of working were perfectly matched, both of us preferring a relaxed, improvisational approach to shooting. Vanessa is very easy to get along and was very patient with me in needing frequent rests lugging my heavy camera bag up the cliff paths ! :D

It was a most enjoyable first shoot and Vanessa is very highly recommended to shoot with !

Thanks Vanesa !

Had a great shoot with Vanesa on friday.

Pre comms were spot on with lots of ideas from both sides.

Vanesa took direction very well and was also able to come up with her own poses that worked very well.

Easy to work with and great fun was had on the shoot.

Highly recommended model to work with, great in all aspects :)

Vanessa gave me the pleasure of joining me on my Christmas shoot, this was our 2nd shoot together and one again she we created some great images.

She arrived on time with coffee (which is always a plus for me 😉) and was fully ready and prepared.

Im looking forward to more shoots with Ness in 2021.

Highly recommended.

Vanesa!

Thank you so much for a great shoot today and for being an integral part of our little collaborative project. We planned ideas together remotely, you popped in to pick up the dress, you turned up with accessories (pearls, a wedding ring and an onion!) as well as pop home to get stamen marks off your face from the lily (sorry).

You know how helpful and brilliant you were- I loved your makeup!

Anyway, the most noteworthy element of Vanessa is that she doesn’t just pose with a stoic doll-face, our shoot needed emotion/acting and she delivered perfectly. Thank you so much, let’s share the images on the 31st shall we?

Please do let me know when you’d like to shoot again as it was so great to meet you and I promise no more flowers. Take care, Simon.

First shoot with Vanesa, it was so enjoyable and productive, loads of great images to work with. Vanesa is so creative with her movement and facial expressions(just what I was looking for), really in the moment in front of the camera, full of ideas and had a great laugh.

Would love to work with Vanesa again.

It was great to finally get to shoot with Vanesa last week. We spent a lovely evening in a quiet rocky cove, playing with the shapes and textures offered by the rocks and sea. Vanesa is a fascinating lady - her modelling persona being a total contrast to her day to day career.

She really comes alive in front of the camera and is every inch the sultry screen siren - think Sophia Loren meets Jane Russell - Vanesa is hugely enthusiastic and great fun to work with. She clearly enjoys the creative release of modelling and loves to explore different characters. Highly recommended - you will definitely never be bored with Vanesa!! Until next time :)

After weeks of talking about it I finally got the opportunity to shoot with this wonderful woman yesterday.

We got the opportunity to do a couple of different styles, she didnt need much direction but took it very well when needed.

I cant wait to work with her again

Highly recommend

I shot with Vanesa today 2 degrees by the coast and still this lovely lady posed with great aplomb and always with a willingness to work to get the right pose. Vanesa is an intelligent person who models with confidence. She is fully recommended. Thank you Vanesa.

Vanesa and i had our 2nd shoot together on Sunday, this time a location shoot. Vanesa had all her own styling ideas which was great as it worked really well.

Vanesa will brave the cold and any adverse conditions to get the shots. Vanesa certainly didn't disappoint..Vanesa had good constructive ideas and had a real enjoyable shoot..

Thank you Vanesa and look forward to our next encounter...
