Had another fantastic tour with this gorgeous girl.

She's always a pleasure to be around, so fun and full of amazing ideas throughout each session.

Nicole is so passionate about what she does, creating flawless and beautiful poses and also has a very good eye for light.

Her and I worked very well together, complimenting each others posing styles and collaborating as a team.

Her lingerie and outfits are beautiful, she has a perfect complexion and applies her makeup flawlessly. Highly recommended by me and can't wait to shoot with her again on our next tour!!

Easy to work with, polite and funny to interact, spontaneously finding both classical and original poses. Recommendation +

I had a fantastic duo shoot with Nicole and Angel this week.

Nicole brings a fantastic energy to a shoot, and is highly professional.

She knows more about photography than just looking good as a model, and gave great creative input throughout the shoot, from clothing to lighting ideas etc.

All round a superb model to work with, to get amazing results!

Nicole travelled to our studio to model for our fine art portrait lighting and retouching workshop taught by fine art photographer Natalia Arantseva. She was a perfect choice for the workshop. Nicole has a fantastic energy and immediately connected with the workshops delegates. Her experience in modelling and understanding of all things photography really helped pull the workshop together. Thank you to Nicole for being absolutely fabulous over the 2 days. We look forward to her return. Nicole is highly recommended and definately welcome back any time. :) ❤️

Would I recommend Nicole?? Ummm...of course!! An absolute wonderful human being and tremendous model. Her references and portfolio speak for themselves and I dare say what I write here doesnt matter much but for what its worth...her scottish accent...is terrible lol...that said she has been the only one to try and that in itself is reason I would have her stay ANY time she visits...cannot wait to work with Nicole again...

Nicole is very talented and not to mention very passionate about modelling. I can see that she works really hard on set and wants get to get best images.

Not only that she has a lovely warm personality and is very welcoming. I hope we can work along side each other soon.

I had my second shoot with Nicole recently, this time at an outside location she recommended. Her communication prior to the shoot was very good.

The weather was slightly better than forecast (although still not exactly tropical by any measure). Nicole took this in her stride, and managed to pose beautifully despite the at times uncomfortable surroundings and situations she was in, also given the occasional interruptions from dog walkers etc.

Nicole is obviously a very accomplished art nude model who is more than capable of posing herself, yet she readily accepts to be directed when required.

I would recommend Nicole very highly indeed without any hesitation and look forward to working with her again.

I travelled up to Nicole to have a tutored photo shoot. Nicole was so accommodating, I felt relaxed straight away. Everything she said was so valuable to me, and I believe we created some of the best images I've ever had.

Thank you so much for taking the time to help, I really appreciate it.

I'd love to book Nicole for another shoot in the future.

I had the pleasure of working with Nicole this weekend for two hours at her apartment. Nicole was so easy to work with,polite, posed effortlessly and had a great selection of wardrobe. Her flat is amazing with plenty of length for longer lenses and the windows let in the most wonderful light. I can't speak of and recommend Nicole highly enough!

Finally got to shoot with Nicole today on her model day at Hacienda Studios. I had to grab a half day as I've been wanting to shoot with Nicole for ages.

Nicole was ready to shoot when I arrived and hair and makeup was done to high standard, and it was hard to choose what out fit to start with as there was so much choice. Nicole poses effortlessly flowing from one pose to another, and able to hold poses while I was finding the right focus point.Nicole has great ideas, and got into poses that left me aching trying to keep up. Great model, with a matching personality. Hopefully, I'll get to work with Nicole again sometime. Highly recommended.

My first ever ever art nude shoot with Nicole who was just brilliant and who went with some of my slightly mad ideas.I can’t recommend her enough (by saying this makes it even harder to get in with another photo shoot soon,I will just have to que up).Thank you Nicole for a wonderful days photography.

Well... what can I say Nicole is such a professional model it is unbelievable. Our shoot was themed and she had been thinking about it and had planned what her make up would be and bought a suitcase full of stuff. She did her own make up and it was just what i wanted. We then dressed Nicole in a heavy headdress and outfit and she went to town in it. Doing numerous different poses in a difficult outfit. What I love about Nicole is..... she continuously asks to look at the images so that she can see whether the images are working and if she feels that they are not she will put forward suggestions and as always she it right. Nicole knows her own body and what suits her. She is just bloody awesome to work with, her bubbly nature flows through the images and yet she has the amazing expressions. would I work with Nicole again OH YES.... :-)

I was so pleased to catch Nicole on her recent visit to the Midlands; I thoroughly enjoyed meeting and working with her. Rarely has a shoot seemed so fluid and productive; Nicole is an absolute joy to work with.

It's difficult to know what to add to all of the other glowing references; she is a consummate professional, totally committed to helping the photographer achieve outstanding results. I can only add mine to the many fulsome recommendations that she has collected.

Thank you so much, Nicole. Hugely recommended.

My second shoot with Nicole and boy did we have a blast. I booked her for a whole day shoot during her Midlands tour. Originally it was going be a day shooting locations, but the cold weather dictated we did part in a studio.

Nicole arrived armed with a suitcase full of clothes and accessories. We shot a number of different sets in natural light. Nicole flowed freely from pose to pose and knows what angles suit her best. Working to some of my ideas and throwing in her own to ensure we obtained some excellent images.

We then moved to a location we had originally discussed. The weather was good to us with blue sky and some sun. But it was still very cold. Nicole happily braved the cold and wind, along with dodging a couple of dog walkers to achieve some brilliant location nudes.

Nicole is a true professional. Everything from first message to the shoot itself was spot on. So friendly and chatty, we had a wonderful relaxed and productive shoot. So full of energy and enthusiasm too.

Again, she gets the highest recommendation from me. Work with Nicole and you can’t fail to achieve great results. Now looking forward to shoot three, which is already being discussed. A location I want to shoot has only one name attached to it and that is Nicole. Bring it on!

Wonderful shoot with Nicole Rayner this week. Her pre-shoot communications were efficient, thorough and thoughtful, which was lovely.

In person she was equally thoughtful, getting right to the heart of what we were shooting and quickly finding fluid pose after pose after pose. The assignment was a little different from anything she'd shot before, but you wouldn't know that from the photos. She was on it from the first set of the day to the last.

Off camera she was friendly, smart and engaging - we had a very relaxed and productive shoot and the results are great.

Book her, she's fabulous!

Richard Gaynor

Worked with Nicole again on a lighting masterclass with Richard Egan..

Firstly, it was a bloody cold, nay freezing day.. Even with the heaters on in the studio I was cold, and I was wearing clothes!!!

How Nicole did it, and without any goosebumps God only knows, but that pays testament to her professionalism...

Fantastic model, great skin and works brilliantly with Richard on these training days..

Not my first shoot with Nicole, wont be my last... Everything you want from a model!! Bloody Brilliant.

Had an amazing tour with Nicole in Madrid, we worked together on a shoot whilst we were there.

She is very organised, bringing a wide selection of quality garments, her hair and makeup flawless, accentuating her natural beauty.

Nicole keeps very fit, she is in perfect shape, with a beautiful complexion to match! It's rare I see people with flawless skin like her!

She is extremely hard working, striving to achieve the perfect shots, so we worked very well together because she is passionate about what she does, having an affinity for both photography and modelling. She made some excellent suggestions throughout the shoot which really added to the overall results!

Her creativity is endless- her art nude posing is absolutely wonderful to watch- like watching a dancer perform with a bountiful amount of quality poses one after the other- tirelessly.

She has an excellent eye for styling, makeup and her facial expressions are very varied, ranging from sweet to sultry.

She is also a lovely person, bubbly, intelligent and funny- very chatty and friendly too. :D

I would highly recommend Nicole, not only as a beautiful model, but as a photographer and a really lovely companion.

Go and book her immediately!!!!!!!!!

Can't wait for our next tour ;)

Just back from two half day shoots at Nicole’s Photography Palace.

Nicole has such an engaging personality, It was an absolute pleasure to work her.

She was full of advice which as a relative novice, was much appreciated.

Totally fantastic in every respect!

My recommendation would be that I’d love to opportunity to work with her again.

Nicole is the most enthusiastic model I've ever worked with. Professional, creative, talented and easy going. She loves the camera, photography, and how to make a shooting session run in a smooth way.

She is higly recommended for her talent as model, for her attitude and for the laughs and talks :)

Hope to see her soon!!
