I had the absolute pleasure of meeting and working with Panikos who was teaching a group of photographers at a MPA training day earlier this week. Panikos gave great direction but also allowed me to pose freely too. I learnt things myself - including how to pose my hands properly for portraits! Panikos was a fantastic teacher and certainly knows the ins and outs of photography and lighting. Panikos is professional, has a great sense of humour, and the photos from the day are amazing!

Pani and I booked in a super last minute shoot for today during my London tour.

Snow didn't stop us (thank goodness!) and I am SO glad it didn't! It was a short shoot but SO productive!!

Pani's comms were great before hand, his studio was clean, warm, spacious, his images were superb, working with him was a pleasure! I just wish it had been a longer shoot!

Id love to work with Pani again when I am next in London! Highly recommended by me! Thank you so much, Pani :)

I had my first shoot with Pani today and what a pleasure it was! Pani clearly is a master of his art and has a plethora of knowledge to draw from.

Everything leading up to the day was smooth and concepts were very easy to discuss allowing us to create a great selection of images. A large part of this is down to Pani's attention to detail. Everything is carefully calculated and precise to elicit nothing but the best!

I would thoroughly recommend Pani to all!

Thanks again mate!

Pani was a pleasure to work with and had extensive knowledge about photography, lighting and posing.

I thoroughly enjoed working with both him and Cassandra MUA - both of which were very professional.

I would highly recommend others to work with him and look forward to sharing the pictures!

Shot with Pani at his home studio (which is the most professional set up in that amount of space you'll ever see). He has every piece of equipment, every photography award, and all the knowledge possible when it comes to his work. It's clear when you shoot with him that he knows exactly what he's doing, exactly how to get what he wants, and exactly how to capture your beauty perfectly. I would be very happy to work with him again.

I had a shoot with Panikos at the end of October and first off, it should be noted that I contacted him at a short notice before travelling to England. To my delight, Panikos responded right away (which left a very good impression already at the first contact) and agreed to shoot with me.

If you are someone who wishes to learn something about photography, Panikos is the right person—he is a true professional and knows everything there is to know about what it takes to produce a good image. Being from Germany, I happen to know a few interesting (even if mostly useless) facts about photography-related topics, such as for example the fact that Zeiss factory (the biggest and the most known manufacturer of lenses for cameras and microscopes) had its roots in Thuringia region. Imagine my surprise when Panikos knew all of this stuff too—and that in addition to all the technical nuances! Now that’s dedication!

We shot with Panikos in his comfortable and well-equipped studio for about three hours and it was a very pleasant and an informative shoot. I learned a lot, which is a very important aspect for me and I warmly recommend Panikos and if you are still in doubt, just take a look at his portfolio—this is a man who creates masterpieces!

Thank you, Panikos, for the time you have dedicated to me.

I had the most amazing shoot with Panikos and a fellow model, Xenia. Panikos is a master at his art and knows everything there is to know about photography. He puts a lot of care into every shot, provides a variety of valuable advice and is able to adapt every look to its full potential. His communication is timely and his attitude very professional. He also has the most beautiful studio. I feel privileged for having worked with him and would highly recommend him to any model.

I cant believe I haven't left Pani a ref yet!

Basically he is awesome :)

Amazing photographer with a high skill for retouching.

We shot in his lovely well equipped studio in North London and I had a fantastic shoot.

He comes highly recommended from me.

Pani was awesome to work with - despite the traffic holding me up by an hour and a half (which Pani was very understanding about!) We got through a lot of stuff and produced some really, really great shots. I'd wanted to do some gels for a while now and Pani was definitely the right person! Really knows his lighting as is apparent from his work. Highly recommended! Thanks

Just got back from a great shoot with Pani and Cassandra MUAH

It was such a fun and enjoyable shoot! Pani is a true professional and is really talented at what he does. I felt really relaxed at all times throughout the shoot. He was really helpful with direction with poses and was really patient when hair and makeup was being done.

We managed to do a solid amount of work together and get a contrast between each style. He was super nice and had a lot of banter !

Really cannot wait to see the images.

Was a real pleasure working with you.

Highly recommended!! :D

I worked with Panikos on a photography training week and he was superb. A true professional and born perfectionist. His attention to detail paid off as the images we created were fabulous. I hope to wirk with him again soon!

I worked with the lovely Panikos recently at the amazing Talliston House on a recent tour! Panikos had kindly booked me for half a day and we had such a fantastic, productive and creative shoot together! It was our first time working together and I am always a little nervous, but needn't have been as Panikos is so down to earth to work with, kind and respectful.

We had so much fun exploring the many rooms Talliston had to offer. I loved the shots we acheved together, especialley in the natural light. Panikos gave great direction but equally let me take the lead and be free and expressive, which is how I work best! Panikos was great company, a lovely gentleman to work with and very talented at photography and lighting. Super highly recommended to all creatives! We are already in the process of arranging another shoot together! Thankyou for a lovely day,

I had a great time today modelling for Panikos for a workshop with also other two photographers at his studio.

He made me feel very at ease and comfortable, he's a really lovely person and a very professional photographer.

He's very knowledgeable of photography and lights, and directed me to the millimetre to get the perfect shot. I couldn't be happier of the result!

I hope to have the chance to work with Panikos again, it was a great experience.

Definitely recommended!

Panikos was an absolute pleasure to shoot with today! His home studio is INSANE, his hospitality was more than welcoming and his knowledge is very apparent.

Pre comms were great - the mood board was really specific so I knew exactly what to bring and what we would be shooting. Everything was excellently organised, the set ups were fantastic and we had a lot of fun!

Great with direction and letting you free pose, very professional and the results already look stunning.

Would recommend 110%!

Thank you so much for having me Panikos, until next time

I had an amazing photoshoot for the first time yesterday with Panikos.

Contact before hand was great and very professionally organised as we planned the style of the shoot well in advance giving us time to prepare.

Panikos is a very friendly and welcoming photographer. He made me feel very relaxed and at home throughout the shoot giving advice and offered food and drink throughout the day. We had lots of fun trying out different lighting and layouts, yet he is very professional and knows exactly what results he wants to see at the end.

His studio is wonderful built with underfloor heating, sitting area, built in dressing table and a spacious room with a built in lighting rig and plenty of high tech gear and props.

At the end we went through the photos and the results were spectacular! I am very pleased with all the photos and would like to thank him for a wonderful time.

I would high recommend Panikos and look forward to another shoot sometime in the future!

I had my first shoot with panikos a few days ago! Just wow

His studio set up is to die for , heated flooring the lot, he had lunch at the ready made by his wife, amazinggg! I am terribly fussy and hate butter and she made it with Mayo! Yes!! :)

He was great fun, and the shots really blew me away

He is putting the shots into a competition, and I think they will be perfect for the judges if I say so myself.

Great photographer, knows his lighting, let's you pose away and great with direction when needed!

Thank you & look forward to our next shoot! Hopefully soon :)

Had a great shoot with Paniko yesterday. He was so relaxed and welcoming to everyone involved in the shoot. He has an excellent studio space which had space for makeup as well. There was great communication before/during and after the shoot and he gave really good, specific direction and advice when we were shooting. Highly recommended!
