I had the pleasure of working with Phil for the first time on Saturday on a 50 Shades of Grey themed shoot at Red Image Studio, Tamworth. He worked with a thoughtful professionalism that was evident throughout the shoot and collaborated perfectly with Rachyy Downes and Kay Morgan (Vampire Princesss) to create some fantastic shots during the day. Thanks Phil.

Highly recommended.

Rachyy

Phil was the male model at a trio group shoot themed "50 shades of Grey" alongside Kay Morgan and I.

I have worked with Phil many times before, and know that he can deliver - he did not fail me!

Phil was an absolute pleasure to work with; he worked professionally with his friendly and confident attitude, which was refreshing considering the theme of the shoot.

As usual, he was more than willing to try out new things, i.e. candle wax, three adults in a shower, etc. He was professional through out.

Not only all this, but his sense of humour and laid back attitude really helped to break the ice, it was a joy to see him communicate so openly and confidently with all the photographer on the group shoot.

Thanks for a great day, Phil. Highly recommended from me once again!

Phil was one of three models at a 'Fifty Shades of Grey' group shoot today.

It's a tough thing to provide images that are erotic without overstepping the bounds of good taste, but he and his colleagues (Vampire Princess and Rachyy) succeeded admirably.

The final results will be the proof of this - I am very optimistic!

I've not shot male nudes before, and Phil made it very easy for me: he's good-natured, considerate of other models, and goodlooking in a way that appeals to women without men seeing him as any sort of a threat. That's quite an accomplishment!

Excellent work: highly recommended.

My first time working with Phil alongside Rachyy on a 50 shades of grey themed group shoot. A pleasure to work with. No direction needed and so much fun to work with. I can’t wait to see the images from the shoot and I’m sure we’ll be working together again

I worked along side Phil yesterday and he's so easy to work with. So fun and enthusiastic made me feel so comfortable and relaxed as this was my first time working along side a male model..

I recommend anyone wanting to work with Phil, model or photographer to get in contact with him. You won't be disappointed.

I have worked with Phil quite a few times now and he is great fun to work with. We work really well together and it shows in the images. I think it’s important when working with another person to be able to trust them and Phil really makes this easy to do. He is professional, friendly and has a good sense of humour. Each shoot is never dull with Phil around to make you have a giggle. Would totally recommend him and can’t wait for another shoot with him. Thanks Phil!

Rhianna Grey

Myself and Phil worked at Joel Hicks Photographic as part of the awesome foursome event (turned to threesome event) in which we worked at creating some beautiful couples shots around the lake in the snow! I found Phil to be instantly fun, bubbly, chatty and confident and so with being such an easy going character I knew we would get along perfectly and see some stunning results. Sure enough, the results are epic and therefore we have agreed to work together regularly. After we finished shooting with our photographer, we then finished off the day shooting back at the studio with Joel behind the camera, and myself Phil and Elle J shooting solo and as couples. Those images too are absolutely outstanding! What a superb day! I would highly recommend Phil to anyone looking to work alongside a professional male model. Friendly and respectful at all times, expressive and can pose effortlessly.

Thanks again Phil and no doubt see you soooon!

Rachyy

I have worked with Phil a couple of times now: First, on an Androgyny themed shoot, with Simon Moore and then more recently on a more romantic/voyeuristic themed shoot with Kevin Sheldon.

Phil is full of positivity and is more than happy to work to different themes and styles. His Pre and post shoot comms are great, and he is always eager to please and help.

He was on time for both shoots planned, and had an abundance of his own ideas to bring to the shoot.

He is a good model, with an attractive appearance, athletic body and an equally attractive personality. Easy to talk to, and a great laugh.

Thank you, Phil! Highly recommended.

I worked with Phil both one-to-one and with Nicole Rayner for a couple of hours yesterday. I've not worked with a male model before, and Phil certainly didn't disappoint.

We shot some suited-and-booted fashion - for which he was very well prepared - and also some duo fashion and some more sensual images. I was very impressed with his professionality and how well he worked with Nicole.

Phil is a chatty, genuinely nice guy and was incredibly easy to work with, especially considering he was the first male I'd worked with. I'd certainly recommend him.

Nicole Rayner

I had my first shoot with Phil yesterday and to be quite honest I was pretty blown away! He is a VERY experienced and VERY talented model ! He really knows what he is doing and how to best show off his qualities! I think Phil is a VERY versatile model! He has a great body for art nude, a great look for sexy shots but can also do soft happy looks. He is able to convey lots of great emotions - not to mention, he's pretty darn good looking!

He has a great attitude to his work! A great attention to detail - as well as having a great fun energy which only adds to a shoot. I felt very comfortable with him, even though it was our first shoot together - which says a lot about how professional he is, as well as how approachable he is!

We all laughed lots and had great fun but also almost EVERY shot we saw on the back of the camera was pretty darn awesome! It was a hugely productive shoot indeed! And I am really excited to add the shots to my portfolio.

I would recommend Phil in a heartbeat and I look forward to hopefully working with him more in the future! GO BOOK HIM !!! :D

I recently had the absolute joy of working with Phil on a duo shoot with Nicole Rayner.

I have to say that right from the start Phil was enthusiastic, professional, friendly and an all around top guy.

Even though there were three of us the mood was light and fun with lots of laughs - which certainly helped things along.

We did all sorts of stuff from 'happy couple' street fashion type work through to erotic and Phil excelled in all.

I really love the stuff we did that day, we got some cracking images and Phil is a major reason for this.

cheers Phil - you're the man!

book this guy! totally recommended!!!

What can I say about Phil... :D Only that he is professional, hard- working, works well with other models, looks great, and is an absolute riot on top of that! Never have I laughed so much on a shoot!

Phil's communication and willingness to help before the shoot was awesome, he was happy to video call with me for safety, and bless him he came all the way from Stoke just to shoot with me.

A great day altogether, thanks so much Phil!

Highly recommended, 5 stars :D

The fact that this was my third shoot with Phil in two weeks says it all really... but I will elaborate. This time he was working with Elle J, they had never met before and I knew Elle would naturally be nervous but I also knew that Phil's genuine warm personality would put her at ease straight away and he did. Phil was polite, respectful and professional throughout the shoot. He has such a creative positive energy that I admire very much. We had such an incredible shoot, the images we created are a credit to both Phil and Elle J.

Thanks Phil xox

Elle J

I had a great shoot with Phil today. Amanda E approached me and asked if I would like to work with him. I messaged Phil and straight away his reply was polite, informative and kind. We discussed ideas for a shoot with Amanda E taking the photos. Pre shoot comms were really great, I felt like I already knew him before we even met. I explained that I was nervous about doing a nude shoot with a male but he reassured me and put my mind at ease.

When I first arrived at the shoot I was really nervous but once I was greeted by Phil with a warm hug I knew the shoot would go well. He was great during the shoot, offering ideas and generally fun to work with. He was polite, respectful and I really enjoyed working with him. I would recommend him and I hope to work with him again in the future. Thanks Phil!

I've met Phil at a networking event on two occasions in the past month. At both, he happened to be the first person to say hello when I arrived, and it was towards the end of a hot 5-hour summer afternoon when I worked with him.

He was as fresh as if he'd just started, he obviously enjoys his job, is patient, and was very easy to chat to. It was my first networking event and only my second model shoot at the time, and Phil was the perfect person to work with - he naturally set into his own poses and easily took instruction. He was willing to run a few metres four or five times until I got the shot I wanted on that hot summer's day! He was also working with models he hadn't met before, and I thought he'd known them for years at first - he's that natural at building a rapport, whether it was a child or adult model. Very highly recommended, to new and professional photographers alike.

I met Phil recently on a group shoot and we immediately connected. We got some great images and quickly arranged a one-to-one shoot at my studio. Phil has an engaging personality, is polite, organised, an effective communicator and a real pleasure to work with. What I most like about Phil is his positive attitude which is so infectious you cannot fail to have fun working with him. He is also extremely professional, has a great physique and is hard working.

The wonderful feedback I have received from Phil about the images makes me so happy. If you get chance to work with this amazing guy take it immediately, (even though I would love to keep him to myself). We will definitely be working together again.

I work with Phil for the first time today on a range of ideas from "James Bond" through "Athletic" to "Implied". He was an absolute delight to work with being very patient while I tinkered with the lighting set-ups and took direction very well even helping to develop my ideas to ensure we captured some truly stunning images. If you want a serious "proper" male model then I have no hesitation in recommending that you book Phil for you project.

Phil is a lovely chap with a killer smile and great ability to mix up emotions, highly recommend :)
