I had yet another fantastic remote shoot with the very lovely Allan. When he got in touch wanting to do another shoot I did my happy dance as I previously loved his edits and his company! He is a wonderful all rounder, fantastic to model for, fun and courteous at all times. He came with a clear idea of styles he wanted to shoot and together as a team we nailed it! I’m so excited to see what he does with the images this time round! He comes with the very highest of recommendations from me and I really hope to have the pleasure of working with him more again in the future!

Thank you Allan for an amazing shoot, I loved it 🙌

Shot a few times recently with Allan,which is always a pleasure! Although our recent shoots were close in time,we had three completely different and unique ideas and themes for each one. Allan always executes each shoot he does really well,every detail is important and Allan spends lots of time afterwards working very hard on the images to transform them into something magical! As always,it is really nice to shoot with someone so imaginative! Could not recommend Allan more and I cannot wait for the next shoot!

After being in talks for several months on and off, we finally managed to arrange a shoot, albeit remotely! Allan's pre shoot communications were excellent, well thought out and properly planned, he took the time to study the sets (which is always important when relying on the internet!) and was able to choose appropriate clothing for each of the sets we shot. During the shoot itself he was polite and professional and the conversation easily flowed between us - I felt at ease straight away.

Allan's eye to detail is exquisite and he took the time to pay attention to the smaller things of the shoot, which made for more usable images rather than just shooting non stop. He was understanding that I was just starting to get sick and was very kind throughout the shoot, encouraging me to take regular water breaks!

The images looked awesome and I look forward to seeing some of the final edits!

Thankyou for a fantastic shoot!

Had such a lovely shoot with Allan!

He was professional and friendly and made it a very comfortable and relaxed experience.

It was my first time working with him and we had a nice wee chat to start with that totally put me at ease and let us get to know each other a bit more. We managed to get so much done in the couple of hours that we had.

His communication pre shoot and during the shoot was incredible and it was just a really fun and enjoyable experience shooting with him.

Would definitely recommend Allan!

Recently had another fun shoot with Allan,possibly my favourite to date as I was in love with the concept!

Allan is always a pleasure to work with because of his creative side and his ability to challenge the boundaries of remote shoots and make them into something really amazing! This particular idea was one that I had wanted to try out for a while!

I really am excited to see the results from this one and I look forward to shooting with Allan again,which is already booked into the diary,yay!

Have shot with Allan twice and I can’t recommend him enough, between the communication on the ideas and lead up to the shoot,to the actual shooting with his set up and lighting skills and professional manner,to the quality of images following the shoot,one of the best in the industry and looking forward to working together again in the future :)

I had my second shoot with Allan and what a fun shoot it was. Pre-communication was excellent, ideas flowed nicely and I was happy to get a second chance to work together after the first time going so well. The first time we worked together was on a boudoir/glamour style shoot, and this time around we were outdoors with some creative theme ideas! We did have four in mind, and due to the busy nature of the area and the fact we couldn't help but catch up, since it had been a while, meant we only got through two, leaving us in communication now for the other ideas in the future - which is always good!

We were not sure if the weather would play ball, the location we picked, we imagined quieter, but luckily Allan allowed me to bring a friend along who helped by watching over the camera gear and my stuff as we moved around, letting us know if people passed whilst we had some skin on show as to not offend anyone. I never usually have people along so it was a fun experience and just goes to show that Allan is very trustworthy and professional by allowing another set of hands (and eyes) along.

I love the sneaky peek of what we have shot, and enjoy creating with this lovely and enthusiastic human. So, the question being, would I recommend Allan Burnes Photography? Yes I would, highly and heartfully. I can't wait until we create and work together again!

Had yet another super fun and creative shoot with Allan! Allan never seems to run out of ideas and his enthusiasm always sets up to have a really great shoot! This time we had another colourful theme which everyone threw ideas into! It’s always refreshing to work with Allan,and if you haven’t already you must! Excited to see the outcome of this one and looking forward to the next one already!

Thoroughly enjoyed my shoot with Allan, and cannot recommend him enough. From the prep before the shoot, communication was excellent to discuss details for the whole look and style overall, to the professionalism on the day chatting about the plan for each shot. His knowledge of lighting and direction is definitely the best I've came accross. The images are of high quality also, very pleased and hope to work together again in the future.

Had my third remote shoot with Allan last week and yet again it was a super fun shoot! Allan has incredible ideas when it comes to putting together a shoot and I think this has been my favourite concept yet!

Allan is wonderful to work with due to his passion and enthusiasm about shooting! The images I’ve seen so far are incredible,Allan’s editing skills are also top notch! I’d definitely recommend working with him.

Elle Baldwinson

Had a second remote shoot with Allan at the weekend and yet again it went wonderfully!

Allan is brilliant at communicating before a shoot and making sure it is well prepared. This time there were some great new ideas to try and I am certain the results will be fabulous just like the incredible images from our first shoot.

Allan is always lovely to work with and I look forward to working with him again in our shoot next month which we have already started to plan :) Thank you Allan

Such a wonderful second shoot with this lovely man ! I assisted on this second remote shoot for my model daughter,Elle Baldwinson & Allan,as he zoomed in to shoot Elle on this remote shoot . Allan had great cons prior to the shoot & was so lovely,clear & patient with Elle .

The resulting images from our first shoot were just fantastic, and I have no doubt these with be equally fabulous, can highly recommend.

Having shot with Allan on numerous occasions, it's safe to say, we make a great team!

Communication is always on point and he knows his stuff!

If you are looking for a shoot where you can chat and have a laugh as well as capture some beautiful imagery, this is your man!

Would definitely recommend

I had such a lovely remote shoot with Allan at the weekend!

I've worked with Allan for years now and always look forward to our shoots together, of course this one was always going to be slightly different being a remote shoot, but we still had a really good natter and a catch up just like we would in person which was lovely :D

Allan's comms as always were great on the lead up to the shoot, he let me know what his ideas were and which areas he was interested in too so I knew exactly what to expect. We bounced ideas off each other for changes to lights and angles and it was super fun from start to finish.

Can't wait to see the final results, I've seen one image so far and loved it :D

Happily recommended and hopefully will catch up in person next time I'm in Scotland!

Had a lovely first shoot with Allan yesterday, we shot remotely and it went really well! Allan was very prepared before the shoot and was clear about the ideas and what he wanted to get from the shoot which made planning run a lot smoother! He had great communication throughout.

The shoot was so much fun and really different! I enjoyed working with Allan and I’m excited to see the results! I look forward to working with him again soon and I would absolutely recommend anyone to shoot with him.

I always enjoy working with Allan on our remote sessions and this last shoot was no exception. Allan was easygoing and willing to adapt to our circumstances and go with the flow and we were able to get some really cool pictures thanks to that. Allan is enthusiastic he's working hard to get more and more of his work published (he has already published quite a few from his shoots). It's great to know that our work is getting seen more and more. I'm looking forward to when we can do some outdoor location work together!

Highly recommend.

Allan is an absolute joy to work with! He joined myself and Chris Conway on our ‘bean tin’ studio day and was the perfect type of photographer! His pre coms were second to none, he had clear ideas of what he wanted to achieve for the session so it flowed that much easier on the day as we were already prepared prior the shoot. When he joined us remotely, he was full of fun, great energy and personality which made the modelling that much easier when conversation flows and it’s enjoyable. I’m looking forward to seeing what he produces from the day as he had some really cool unique ideas that looked amazing on the back of the camera. I have no hesitation in recommending him 100% and look forward to another shoot with him in the not to distant future I hope 😊

Another great remote shoot with Allan - our best yet I’d say!!!!

Did a valentines theme with balloons and pinks and peach tones! The images at the back of the camera were amazing and we both worked hard together on creating and communication!

Defiantly the best shoot we have done this far in our creative remote journey I look forward to the next one!

Another superb shoot with Allan, our second time doing a socially distanced, outdoor shoot in my garden location just outside Perth working up to nude levels. We had planned this shoot around the weather and with a little flexibility and luck it went our way, with some excellent results.

Arriving promptly, his communications leading up to our shoot and during were fantastic once again. We got straight to it and had planned some different Autumnal and Halloween themes. Bringing along with him some props which were perfect including a few bags of leaves he had collected and dried, smoke bombs and a creepy carved out pumpkin. Now that's dedication.

Friendly, polite, passionate and full of energy, shooting from lots of different angles and with this shoot there was lots of rearranging of leaves required so he had his work cut out for him. He will constantly make sure your happy with everything and look out for your safety and well being.

Allan has a great eye for detail and let's you see the results during shooting from a safe distance so you can adapt anything if need be.

Very respectful, professional, knowledgeable, communicates very well and has wonderfully creative ideas.

We enjoyed a very productive shoot with amazing results.

Highly recommend to all creatives, do not miss out on the opportunity to work with Allan. A complete joy to work alongside, enthusiastic and strives for the best possible results.

Thank you Allan,

I look forward to next time.

Aurora :)

Have had a couple of wonderful shoots with Allan now. I really enjoy working with Allan because he has some great ideas, is very enthusiastic and well-humoured. My shoots with him have been remote, I hope that one day we will also be able to shoot in person as I think it'll be a blast.

I've really liked all the shots Allan has chosen to share from our shoots and look forward to working with him again in the future.

I can happily recommend Allan to others looking for a kind and skilled photographer!
