Just finished Paul's September Wales Weekend Event. The weather was less than kind, particularly on Saturday. It is a tribute to Paul's organisation skills and dedication that the event was still a real success for all concerned. No small part is the outstanding quality and professionalism of the models Paul selects and invites for these events. Superb, Paul, thanks a million and I'd seriously recommend this event to anyone.

I've arrived back in New Zealand after a lightning tour of the UK, which included one of Paul's famous Wales Weekends. It's a fabulous experience for a photographer. When you consider it includes first and foremost eight fabulous professional models (Angel, Ayla, Misckah, Miss Pixie, Rosa Brighid, Serenity, Tanya Atherton and Tillie!), lighting, even a smoke machine, plus accommodation and great farm-fresh food, it's an outstanding bargain. Paul's relaxed, super-organised and great company. The weekend's organised into morning and afternoon sessions, and extra sessions are available one-on-one. Rain or shine, there are multiple great locations to shoot in and new photographers and models to work with. I think it works well for any level of photographer. Now, off to the editing suite for me, jet-lag be damned.

Had a fantastic studio day at Paul' Studio last month but unfortunately I didn't get to work with Paul.. Paul so kindly arranged a second studio day for me last Saturday and we finally got the chance to work together. Pre communications were perfect. The studio is a great space with lots of hidden sets and props.Fully air conditioned and nice and tidy. Paul's range of lighting skills were amazing and his quick set ups ensured we covered most of what we wanted to shoot in such a short space of time!

I would recommend Paul and his studio 100%

I look forward to returning again soon.

Have worked at Pauls a bazillion million times now, his studio is my most frequented and always produces great results as far as what photographers send me. I always feel comfortable and safe there, and whether its a workshop lead by Paul or a one to one shoot, everything always runs smoothly. There are a whole bunch of props in there so despite the countless hours I've shot there now, you don't run out of ideas, plus photographers never struggle with lighting or kit which is definitely a plus. Paul is welcoming as a person, laid back, and nice to talk to and has evidently been running this for a long time. Highly recommended from newcomers thru to seasoned experienced models/togs :)

Had a wicked studio day at Pauls Studio today... I thoroughly enjoyed the whole day, Paul is a pleasure to work with, looked after me well and kept the day running smoothly. His pre communications were great too.

I turned up to the shoot not feeling very well and Paul was such help , got me anything I needed and kept an eye on me.

Would happily come back and use the studio again.. was clean, tidy and lovely and warm!! xx

I am now in my twelfth year of shooting at Paul's studio and every visit is as enjoyable as the first, with ever better facilities and a great selection of models. What I like best is that you can have as much or as little help as you need which makes things relaxing and at the same time productive. Thank you again Paul and all the models you employ.

Paul has found yet another great model, Faye Noir, for one of his regular studio events and I had a brilliant time today shooting with her. As ever, everything went smoothly and I tried some new lighting ideas aided by Paul's suggestions. Over the years I have used a range of other studios but never found another where the models are so good and the overall experience such fun. Thanks.

Had a wonderful studio day here at Paul's studio. Paul is welcoming, polite and very friendly! The studio was tidy, warm and a pleasant space to work in. Paul is a great host and a really lovely guy to be around. I haven't shot here before, but I certainly would again now that I've seen what's it's like. If you're looking for a great studio, owned by a great photographer who's always willing to help out - here's your place! And if you are a model looking for a nice studio to shoot at, I'd highly recommend Paul's. Overall, had a great day and it was a pleasure to meet Paul :)

I have just returned from my sixth visit to Paul's Studio location shoot at the Glynhir Estate in Wales. Every time I go there I discover new photographic possibilities that this wonderful location offers. Everything about the weekend was superb- the organisation, models, photography, food, accommodation and weather. Paul and Phil worked so hard to ensure that the weekend was a success for all involved. Thanks to everyone for a fantastic shoot. I highly recommend it and look forward to my next visit.

Had my first solo studio shoot at Paul's studio on Sunday. Paul organised a brilliant day with a brilliant model, going out of his way to make the times work for me. The studio is brilliantly equipped with a wide variety of lights, modifiers, backgrounds etc.

In addition Paul is the perfect host making sure photographer and model are comfortable and also providing advice where requested and helping changing backgrounds, lighting etc to ensure the photographer can get the images they want - especially helpful for me!

I look forward to shooting at the studio in the future and also joining Paul at one of his location events.

I have been shooting at Paul's studio most months for nearly 10 years. Today he set up a fantastic bedroom lit by window light set and I got some amazing art/erotic nude images. Fantastic, thoroughly recommended as a place for the novice and expert to shoot.

I've used the studio twice now. It's very much like a Tardis in that it looks like it's going to be tiny from the outside but is in fact very spacious! Paul is always very friendly and helpful. The studio is always clean and tidy and there are various props etc which you can use with shoots.

This time was a shoot for publicity photos for a client and Paul helped get things set up and then left us to it. We were able to get some great shots and the client was very happy with them, using them in various videos and other publicity material.

I'd recommend the studio to anyone looking to shoot in this area.

I was very lucky to meet and work with Paul on Saturday the 9th of April.

I've been wanting to work with Paul for a very long time and I happend to be around Reading that weekend so I thougt that it would be great to message Paul and arrange to meet and shoot together :)

Paul also organised a shooting for me at his studio with another photographer which was very nice of him :)

I had a studio day at Paul's Studio last week. The studio is always kept clean and tidy and it is always warm. Paul is always on hand to help photographers and models with anything they may need aswell as offering great lighting advice and showing photographers different techniques. I had a great day and am looking forward to the Manor House shoot this weekend :) Highly recommended x

My third time heading into Reading to shoot at Pauls! I finally managed to shoot with Paul this time too!

The results were fantastic ♥ the day itself was great too!

Pauls studio days are perfectly set out and work well! Paul is always around if you need anything, even a pack of minstrels ;)

Paul and the studio is just perfect!

100% recommended

I have lost count of the many times I have been privileged to enjoy the facilities offered at Paul's Studio. Always a friendly reception with that welcomed cup of coffee. Everything about the studio is proficient and the lighting is excellent.. If in doubt, ask Paul, who will assist. The model days are first class but the Manor House shoot is one not to be missed. Each year is a little different and the models are all very high quality and very professional

This was my first time at Paul’s, the studio was extremely well equipped with top quality Bowens flash gear and modifiers. The space was warm and comfortable with excellent facilities for models and photographers, including excellent coffee!. Paul is a very helpful, easy going guy and was happy to help with background changes and equipment moves between set ups. He then left us to shoot and indicated the bell push I should use to call him back if necessary, a perfect arrangement!

Thank you Paul for organizing such an enjoyable and successful shoot. Highly recommended!
