Had 4 hours on Sunday shooting Nicole in natural lighting conditions in a wonderful old mill which had plenty of character backdrops, props and atmosphere. She is absolutely brilliant at understanding what the photographer wants as she also takes photographs.

Balancing on things, swinging upside down, always coming up with her own poses and when requested, whatever the photographer asks for. Quick to work with and very adaptable she is happy to discuss your ideas, props, clothing and lighting suggestions.

Thoroughly enjoyable and satisfying shoot with a beautiful model. Highly recommended.

Had a wonderful shoot with Nicole today.

Had a slot on her studio day.

Fantastic personality, easy going, extremely fun to shoot with, bags of confidence, great posing abilities, lovely figure, attractive features, I could go on, and on, but enough to say that Nicole is a lovely person to work with.

Can not wait to start editing the image from todays shoot.

Can without hesitation recommended her to any level of photographer.

Shooting with Nicole was a great experience,4 hours went nowhere but we got a series of good images. She's clearly passionate about what she does and it was very interesting working with a model who is also used to being behind the camera. The range of poses she can pull out is pretty impressive and she's very modest about how supple and gymnastic she is. It also helps that she has a stunning figure! Her communication beforehand was good and she was friendly engaging and came up with some great ideas. I'd definitely work with her again.

Great shoot with Nicole, she is up for anything, understands what will work and happy to pose freely on location, superb loved the shoot, just got to get on with the editing!

Nicole contacted me with regards planning to work together whilst she visited the South West of England in September. Historically, I’d been impressed with the quality of her portfolio even though she is a relatively new model. Pre-shoot communications were good and we managed to arrange our shoot, despite me only having a very small window of opportunity due to work commitments. Shooting artistic nude is something that I am relatively new to and Nicole is clearly experienced in this genre. Nicole suggested that she would also like to try out something more fashion orientated so this became our main focus. Nicole and I travelled to a local beach and I found her to be excellent company, not taking herself too seriously and a lot of fun. It is very clear that Nicole is very passionate and professional about her modelling, capitalising on every shoot opportunity. I was impressed that Nicole was well prepared, her makeup done to a good standard, and with a sensible number of outfits given the time constraints. The weather conditions and light levels were not entirely in our favour but Nicole worked hard in difficult conditions and did not let the cold windy weather deter her.

Would I recommend Nicole? Yes, without any doubt. She is a lovely lady, a fabulous hard working model who is good to be around, and is very much focussed on getting the best images possible. It is good to see her going from strength to strength and I’m sure she will do very well in the future.

I had the pleasure of working with Nicole recently when she was down in Plymouth I found her to be a really nice person to work with very energetic and imaginative in her work

I would recommend that to anybody that is looking for hard-working easy to work with model

The only downside as far as I am concerned is the fact that she lives in York and I will have to wait for her next visit to Plymouth

when I will be very happy to book to her again so if you get the opportunity off working with Nicole I would recommend that you take it and you will not be disappointed

Highly recommended

It was a real pleasure to meet and model alongside Nicole at Pipewell Hall the other day. She is a lovely lady - very down to earth and easy to get on with, plus very honest, genuine and enthusiastic about working towards excellent imagery. She has beautiful skin and eyes, lots of talent and is a good person. I'd very happily model alongside her again and I look forward to seeing more of her work! :-)

I'd wanted to work with Nicole for a long time - a wish that came true on Friday. My expectations were pretty high, based on her impressive portfolio, profile and references, but she exceeded them in every way. She is a beautiful and inspirational model, and a wonderful, exceptional person.

I'd booked a studio at a location as convenient as possible for us both. Nicole arrived on time and immediately impressed with her energy and enthusiasm, even though the studio was a real disappointment. Her ability to see creative possibilities in limited and unpromising surroundings was truly impressive. She buzzes with ideas and contributes so much to every shot, striving to achieve the very best. Her fearlessly athletic posing abilities are truly sensational - her beautiful figure and natural elegance conceal amazing strength that enables her to do seemingly impossible things. And she does it all with style and effortless grace, making even the most extreme poses look easy.

Finally, it's impossible to spend a few hours with Nicole and not be impressed, captivated and inspired by her as an exceptional person. She is very friendly, warm and so easy to talk to and to work with. She is down to earth and has a great sense of humour, but is totally professional with a strong work ethic. Her beautiful face and hair, outstanding body and breathtaking posing ability would inspire any photographer to produce great work. It was a privilege to meet her and to work with her, and I sincerely hope we'll work together again soon. I recommend Nicole without reservation.

Finally managed to have the fates align and shoot with Nicole earlier this evening.

From a friendly welcome at the station to numerous looks and mutual agreement about which images were strongest our half day shoot seemed to fly by.

With a range of commercial, fashion, sheer, implied, lingerie and ending on fashion and art nude looks we really did cover most bases today.

I'm amazed at the effort and industry put in by Nicole today as she battled laryngitis. A cross section of music, chatting, brews and lots of images taken in an efficient but very relaxed style.

As she's also a photographer you get a second opinion and pair of eyes on any sticky lighting scenarios - bonus!

Nicole is very sweet, chatty and friendly and I'd be more than happy to recommend her to anyone looking for a versatile model.

Well for what it is worth, here is my small contribution to all the other glowing references that Nicole has already received and thoroughly deserved.

After reading Nicole's inspirational profile I had to message her to see if she had some space on her studio day at Joel Hicks studio, and I was very fortunate that she did.

I doubt I can say anything new or surprising to anyone of just how fantastic a model Nicole is.

She has such a passion for art nude and with her being a female photographer really helps, seeing nudity from a feminine side.

Her looks are simply stunning. She has a beautiful curvy figure, lovely pale skin and natural blonde hair. And those eyes........ are just incredible.

Nicole is a lively and friendly beautiful confident model who make such a big effort to make sure that the results are satisfying for me and herself. She is very, very professional but also has a relaxed approach, which I think is very important.

She also incredibly easy to work with, very patient and friendly and the shoot truly felt like a collaboration between us.

So it goes without saying......Nicole comes very very highly recommended and I very much look forward to working with her again hopefully sooner than later.

Thank you Nicole

Over the weekend I had the opportunity to work for the second time with Nicole at Joel Hicks studio

The relationship between a model and photographer is pivotal to making a great image, and Nicole is a model who will do that extra to make it work

Working in the lake she tried a range of thinks to make a shoot work, sailing boats going underwater

Both fun to work with and as a photographer technically skilled she helps to make the shoot both fun and productive, I had a fun two hours and walked away having for the first time unlocked the potential of the lake at Joel's

I believe Nicole is running an event in September, just state time date and location and I will turn up happily

Now that is a true recommendation, very very highly recommended

I had the pleasure of working with Nicole a few weeks ago where she was photographing some duo shots of us! Nicole is the loveliest, kindest and friendliest person you could meet, she also oozes so much enthusiasm and energy as she is modelling, she is clearly really passionate about it which is so refreshing and nice to see :)

Nicole is a fantastic model, she really understands the beauty, delicacy and strength of art nude, she pays attention to all its fine details and poses exquisitely. She also introduces so much creativity in her poses as well as being able to convey the more classical and traditional art nude poses wonderfully. When posing with another model she is very attentive and moves fluidly with the her, she is receptive to the other models ideas as well as introducing her own and is truly collaborative. She is also incredibly fun to work with, there are plenty of laughs along the way :)

Working with Nicole was so so lovely, she is a wonderful, fun and creative person with a tonne of passion and raw talent for modelling, everyone must work with this lady :)

I had the great pleasure of shooting with Nicole yesterday with Miss Rose at Sandon studio having seen many images of her before and knowing her through social media.

I admire this young lady greatly for her courage and as a role model to other people.

She is obviously stunning, friendly, talkative and great fun, she posed effortlessly with Miss Rose and they worked well as a pair.

I have not having had a chance to work on any of the images yet, but from the quick look I had when I downloaded them I can see we have some great results.

I would very much like to have the chance to shoot Nicole her on her own too!

Highly recommended, Thanks for a great shoot.

Dave E

Over the weekend I had the opportunity to work with Nicole for the first time

Working at Sandon Studios on a Duo shoot with Miss Rose

What can I say they say blonds have more fun, well you do with Nicole

This highly talented lady is great to work with, highly professional with an ability to supply a great ranges of poses

But Nicole's core skill is her ability to communicate with the photographer to get the right picture,

She is a photographer her self so can see the overall objective and help to deliver it

I can pay her no greater compliment than our next photo-shoot is booked in two weeks time

I would recommend this young lady to any photographer and you will not be disappointed

Very very highly recommended and thank you for a great 2 hour shoot

Scarlot Rose

I have worked with Nicole a few times now and this weekend we hosted our first duo model day together!

Nicole was absolutely fantastic throughout, her poses are graceful and creative and she's also great at assisting photographers/giving suggestions on more technical aspects as she is also a photographer herself.

I love working with Nicole as I find her such an inspirational person (both as a model and photographer) and she is a very easy person to get on with and I really enjoyed the day! I hope we can work alongside each other more in future!!

If you haven't worked with Nicole already get booking as she's absolutely fantastic!!

Today I had the absolute pleasure of working with Nicole for the first time.

I had originally spotted her on another photographers site,and knew instantly that I wanted to shoot with her.Pre shoot comms were all great and Nicole turned up on time looking fabulous.

We headed off into the Derbyshire countryside and worked through several different looks and outfits as well as art nude,in which genre I can most certainly say.....Nicole excels.Fabulous posing....little guidance required from me.

It was a delightful 5 hours which went by far too quickly,but that said,we got through some brilliant work.

Goes without saying......Nicole comes very highly recommended and I very much look forward to working with her again in the near future.

Thanks Nicole,for an absolutely fabulous afternoon.x

I had the pleasure of working with Nicole during a studio day at Denby Starr studio. Firstly, I must say that I can not get over the fact that she has only been modelling for a short amount of time. She is a talented poser with a strong ability to deliver good expression. She is relaxed and natural in front of the camera and she poses confidentially like she has been doing it for years.

She has beautiful features, a great face and a wonderful figure.

She is a beautiful person inside and out. She has a great sense of humour and is definitely somebody who I would love to work with again.

Comes highly recommended!

A very pleasant shoot with Nicole together with Annie Moya at Denby Starr studios. It was a first for us all - a) as a shoot together, and b) the studio location.

I was spoilt for choice with where to photograph both these lovely ladies. We covered portraiture and glamour on a black backdrop then outside in the sunshine with the building as the background. Then moved inside for Art Nude on a staircase and a waterbed. A very interesting and pleasant 2 hours.

Nicole is a very versatile model with both pose and expression and will not let you down in front of the camera. Happily gets” into the swing” with ideas and sets . Chatty, a friendly smile and at ease at all times

.

Many thanks Nicole and I am sure you will be kept very busy with your modelling.

Highly recommended .
