Had my first Model Day shoot with Tanya Atherton at Paul’s Studio yesterday. I was very impressed with the arrangements and help I received from Paul. I asked for help with a particular lighting set up during the shoot and Paul was fantastic with his help and suggestions. Generally he just left Tanya and myself get on with the shoot our way, but was always there, at the ring of a buzzer, to help and guide. I have no hesitation in recommending Paul’s Studio to any photographer who needs to hire a good well equipped studio or receive excellent training.

Paul kindly invited me to his Wales weekend, which enabled me to stay in a beautiful Manor house in Wales. It really is a stunning venue, with endless areas to shoot amongst old cottage houses, ruins, rivers, gardens and the actual house itself

I've never shot in the same place twice at the Wales weekend.

The events are extremely well organised and the food is fantastic.

It's a good laugh too, it was my favourite wales trip yet.

Recommendeded by me.

I have been booking regular shoots at Paul's for 10+ years. Today, as ever, was a delight. He chooses amazing models, helps get everyhting set us just the way I need, is always couteous and polite to everyone involved and, above all, offers excellent value for money. The models I work with there are always well looked after and come back time and again.

I’ve worked for Paul many times now, for studio days, for an amazing wales weekend and shooting in general!

Paul is such a lovely guy and he’s a fabulous photographer. His personality out shines and he’s hilarious. He’s fun to work with and also is very chilled and relaxed while also getting great shots!

The wales weekend he organised was great and well planned out, beautiful scenery and I’m glad that I got to go! I would highly reccomend anyone going!!!

100% reccomended !!!

Just had my fourth weekend in Wales on Paul's "Wales Glamour Weekend". As usual it was a great weekend and Paul provided us with fantastic models to work with. The location is a joy to shoot in no matter what the weather.

Can throughly recommend these weekends. The combination of, a great location, great models, and a friendly group of photographers makes the weekend really enjoyable.

Thanks again Paul, really enjoyed myself and the images I got this year have to be my best.

Had another great photography session at Paul's yesterday. There were lots of options and bits of kit to play with and, as always, Paul was exceptionally helpful in advising and suggesting set-ups, etc. I have used this studio on a number of occasions and it has always been a great experience. Highly recommended - thanks Paul.

I have been working with Paul now for a couple of years.

His studio is a great place to shoot and would highly recommend to anyone.

He always makes me feel very comfortable and I love working with him and we have created some wonderful shots and have a laugh along the way.

I really cant wait to do some studio days and build up my portfolio.

Thank you Paul

My first visit to Pauls Studio, I had booked a two hour shoot with Natalia Forest.

I was made to feel very welcome by Paul, greeted with a cuppa (you know its going to go well when it starts with tea), and shown around his well equipped and versatile home studio. Paul was happy to leave us alone once the shoot got under way (I knew he was only a 'bell press' away should I need him).

I have no hesitation in recommending Pauls Studio to anyone looking for a well appointed studio with a selection of sets and props, and probably the most tech I have seen in one studio!

Thanks .

Had another fantastic weekend at Paul's studio in Reading.

His studio is great, excellent range of lighting and modifiers, backdrops, tonnes of props and a selection of clothes too.

The studio always looks pristine too, he keeps it in great condition.

He looked after me well, feeding me and offering some excellent coffee throughout the days which is always appreciated by models.

Paul is not only super helpful to anyone who comes, inputing ideas etc, he's also a lovely person, chatty and a good laugh :)

I thoroughly enjoyed the weekend and would highly recommend his studio to anyone!!!!!!

Pauls studio is an absolutely fantastic place to hold a shoot. It is well equipped and spacious. What really makes Pauls studio a great studio is the professional attitude of the owner.

Paul is very friendly and welcoming. He looked after me during shoots.

100% recommended

I’ve worked at pauls studio for many years a well equipped studio with many props.

Paul is fantastic, always welcome with a smile and a cup of coffee.

He’s helped me so much with lighting and how to improve my photography , a top professional in every way. Models are treated in the same way and we all have fun and banter.

I would recommend Paul and his studio 100%

Hope shoot there again soon.

I had my first studio day at Pauls Studio on Saturday and I can't recommend Paul highly enough. He organised everything and filled the day with photographers, picked me up from the station and offered assistance when needed throughout the day.

The studio was great to work in and Paul was friendly, professional and accommodating...highly recommended!

Thank you x

Paul organised a mammoth shoot with 5 of us models for a workshop and it went very well, but then I wouldn't expect anything other with Paul as he is super organised and his shoots always run smoothly. The studio wasn't cramped with 7 of us in there and the day flew by!

I have a studio day at Paul's again and I'm very much looking forward to it!

Very highly recommended!

The best aspect of Paul's Studio is Paul humself. He is a waelth of information, decoades of experience, and an honest and sincere desire to assist when it is needed.

After over a dozen visits to his studio, I have not yet begun to exhaust its possibilities. Couple that with his location shoots in Wales and Berkshire, and you have a unique opportunity to practice your craft.

My first time shooting MaggieLou at Paul's Studio in Reading.

MaggieLou was a delight to work with and very helpful with poses etc and new exactly what to do to make the best of a shot.

Paul was also very helpful with setup suggestions and lighting etc.

I will definitely work with both again.

I first met Paul via email, to book a photo shoot with Natalia Forrest in 2016. Due to a pregnancy a (hers, obviously, not mine!) and my day-job travel requirements, that shoot was postponed until this year. And Paul graciously deferred my pre-paid deposit until this year.

However, I signed on to his Autumn Wales Photo Shoot and since then I have bee at his studio in Reading at least eight times, not including today and tomorrow.

Paul is a genuine photographer: that is, he has a love for the art which I think only fellow photographers who share that vision can appreciate. I currently live and work in Germany, but I have flown over four times to be at his wonderful, cozy, studio, and will do so again even after relocating back to the USA in December.

He is that good.

I have had at least nine (9) sessions at his studio, been to this Wales shoot, as well as the nearby Manor House shoot, and each one has been nothing short of terrific.

His studio is well-equipped, and his knowlegde of the art is encyclopedic.

Today I worked with MaggieLou for the sixth time, and tomorrow, I will work with Princess Carly at at Paul's Studio, and then be back in decmeber for another Natalia Forrest shoot.

If you're looking for amazing opportunites, look no further than Paul's Studio in reading.

It is worth flying from the other side of the world for. I consider him a good friend, until the end.
