Another great shoot with Peter! Peter came down to my 1920s Flapper Girl Group Shoot on Sunday. Peter was on time and social with the group. Peter is now a photographer I particularly look forward to working with, we know each other well and often have chats about the family and things we have been up to. As a Photographer, Peter is kind, and fun. He is creative and always respectful to the models he works with. On this shoot Peter was kind enough to bring me some old records to use as future props for shoots. He is such a lovely Photographer to shoot with and I am looking forward to the next shoot. Of course I definitely recommend him :)

See you in April Peter, thanks for a great shoot! :) x

Peter attended my Christmas Pin Up Group Shoot recently at F8 Studio Gloucester. Peter came in as polite and friendly as usual. We get on very well so was nice to see him and have a catch up. A very relaxed and easy photographer to shoot with, Peter is very down to earth and a good family man. Peter fitted in with all group protocol and was respectful to everyone at the group shoot. Thank you for coming Peter, have a lovely Christmas :) x

A lovely start to Autumn shooting with Peter on the 1st October. A picturesque location shoot in Broadway, we wandering around at a casual pace, shooting at spots we thought were attractive.

Peter has great conversation and stories and keeps the shoot moving at a steady pace with his creative ideas and chat. We found plenty of places to shoot and even the sun joined us too!

Peter was also kind enough to buy me a coffee and help me with my bag, he is always very considerate of the model and makes them feel comfortable. Looking forward to seeing the photos as it was the start of Autumn and a beautiful day. Thank you Peter - a pleasure as always :) x

Peter came to my Pin Up Group Shoot on Saturday at F8 Studio. He came in with a nice smile as always and very friendly. Peter worked well to the group shoot protocol and fitted in great. He is always very relaxed but full of ideas. Peter and I get on very well and are shooting again on Friday. I would definitely recommend him. Thank you for a great afternoon Peter and thank you for the Portrait print outs we love them! :) x

Peter and I went for a studio shoot on Sunday at F8. Peter was early to the meet up point and was kind enough to give me a lift to the Studio. This was our second shoot and we chatted the whole journey. When we arrived at F8, we started off doing some simple portrait shots to get Peter used to Studio as they are still fairly new to him. Peter himself says he is still learning but half an hour in, Peters images were becoming very strong. He shot an incredible portrait image of me from this set - which is one of my top 10 portrait images I've had done in Studio easily! Currently my avatar! We then worked through a series of Pin Up fashion sets through to lingerie. Peter was open to Paul's help with any lighting set ups or ideas and was very adaptable between sets. Peter was super respected too at all times especially in the lingerie set. He is a very relaxed photographer anyway and an all round genuine guy so was more than happy to shoot up to lingerie with him. As the shoot progressed, Peter developed confidence and began suggesting his own ideas with poses and looks he liked - for example over the shoulder shots. I found the 4 hour booking flew up to be honest! Peter was nice to give me plenty of time to pack my wardrobe up at the end and time to look at back of camera shots. He was laid back and let me select images for editing and he turned these around, edited tastefully within a few days. I have two more bookings coming up with Peter and looking forward to them both. Peter has progressed miles since our first shoot, this includes his work with others and I think he should be very proud of how far he has come in Photography in such a short time.

I would definitely recommend him to other models. It was a great shoot. Thanks Peter! See you in a few weeks! :) x

Third shoot with the absolutely wonderful Peter, this time at Hallam Mill :)

Pete was particularly interested in having another crack at the big dancing jumps with flowy fabric! We covered quite a bit of dance, aerial hoop and fashion. Pete regularly showed me the back of the camera and this man has improved so much since we last shot! Pete is the kind of photographer that has a genuine passion for learning and it's so lovely to watch him grow on his journey :)

Pete is like a bursting bundle of endless energy, making every shoot SO much fun! He's so easy and lovely to shoot with :) Pete is really laid back and I always feel comfortable and chilled out too. He gave me a lot of freedom with outfits but also provided lots of ideas and even brought a bag of clothes and fabric with him for us to use!

Another fabulous shoot! I would absolutely recommend anyone to shoot with Pete as he makes for such a fun shoot. I hope we get to shoot together again!

I had my first shoot with Peter last Saturday.

Peter was a very relaxed and genuine photographer, as soon as I met him - I felt very comfortable about the shoot.

We shot at an Arboretum local to me. Peter had his own shoot ideas as well as being open to mine when we saw an opportunity. Peter was a good conversationalist and the shoot flowed well. We then went onto a Poppy Field and I felt completely fine with car sharing to another destination. Peter is always respectful to the models he shoots with. Peter is trying to learn a new skill set with Photography and is always finding ways and trialing different techniques to develop his hobby. I tried to encourage this and hopefully built confidence, we used some trial and error too to see the outcome of different images.

I am hoping Peter and I will shoot again and develop this further :)

I would recommend shooting with Peter, he is a lovely genuine guy and always 100% professional on shoot. Thank you Peter :)

Yesterday I had my second shoot with Peter who again drove over 120 miles here and back to shoot with me, what an absolute dedicated trooper!

I had the absolute pleasure of arranging a motorbike shoot with Peter today who came all this way on his bike AND I had my first ride on 1 which was amazing!

I really enjoyed the shoot and Peter is always super laid back and easy to work with. When we had finished he treat me to a drink and a bite to eat before the rain started to fall.

I'm not going to lie, when I transferred some images to my laptop a lot of them didn't look like they needed editing at all! Cannot wait to post my favourites soon!

Thanks for another fun shoot! Until next time X

I had another wonderful shoot with Peter last week. It was so lovely to catch up with him and shoot some beautiful images amongst the bluebells. Peter is so incredibly kind and fun to work with. Peter has been kind enough to share some images with me and they are lovely!

I always look forward to our dates in the diary and I’d recommend him to other models without hesitation. Thanks so much Peter! :D

Second shoot with the absolutely delightful Pete yesterday! As soon as I knew I was coming back down to Image Red, I messaged Pete right away to see if he wanted to shoot again. And the answer was a yes :)!

Second time round, Pete still had bags of energy and enthusiasm to revitalise me entirely after a whole day of shooting. He literally came in bouncing off the walls, which only added to my excitement of working with him again :) I knew I was in for a treat ;)

Like we did last time, we pretty much just went with the flow. Pete is one of those photographers that is super easy going, he wants to shoot whatever the model feels most comfortable with (levels, clothing and style) and just runs with it! For him, it's all about having fun, which we totally did! I don't think I stopped laughing for the 2 hours. Time just flew by way too quickly again. What a fantastic shoot :)

I would encourage anyone to work with Pete. He is still early on in his photography journey with models, but my oh my, he is EXACTLY the kind of amateur photographer you want to work with. He is so open and willing to learn, he takes all feedback openly and seriously and genuinely wants to improve his skills. He has a real passion for shooting and it really shines through in his approach to shooting and his images.

An utter delight to work with, genuinely lovely inside-out. We already have plans for another shoot with some of Pete's crazy and creative ideas!

Highly recommended :)

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Pete today who booked me for a shoot even though he rode MILES to get here on his motorbike! So I absolutely commend him for that considering it rained quite heavily when he set off back.

Pre comms were great and we agreed between us on an autumn fashion themed beach shoot as this was our first shoot together and Pete wanted to do something casual just so he could get to know how well we worked together. I think it is safe to say that we work very well together!

Pete is very keen to learn and very easy to get on with whilst shooting. We chatted and laughed non stop and did not let the rubbish weather deter us from our goals! We did various shots up and down the beach including the fab beach huts on the sea front and assessed each set as we went along. I gave him tips on things to look for on a models perspective and shared my knowledge with him and he took it and ran with it.

I would very happily work together again and recommend this great photographer to anyone thinking of working with him. Thanks for a fab shoot! Until next time.

I had another lovely shoot with Peter last week, when he and a photographer friend booked me and another model to shoot a vintage look at a local forest.

The day of the shoot was really miserable weather-wise but we persevered and had a lovely, productive time despite the rain! Peter is lovely company and he had our comfort and happiness at the forefront of his mind throughout the shoot.

I’d recommend him To anyone, as always, and I look forward to working with him again. Thanks so much Peter ♥

First shoot with the wonderful Pete yesterday at Image Red, and it certainly won't be our last!

Peter turned up bang on time with bags of props and bags of energy!! Pete is one of these incredibly honest and genuine people with such a glowing and positive way about him. We were having a great time right away :)! Pete was very happy to just go with the flow and see what we could create, he had a few great ideas but mostly let me take the lead and let me have full creative freedom :)

We shot a variety of dance work, pole work and portraiture. Despite being very new to dance work, Pete did incredibly well at picking up the timing, even with the super quick jump shots! It was such a pleasure to work with someone that was so eager to learn and truly collaborate :)

Our two hours together went by far too quickly!! Definitely needed more time together ;)! Pete was an absolute joy to work with and was lovely to talk to as well. He was very easy-going and encouraged me to take good breaks in-between difficult poses. Pete's enthusiasm and energy was brilliant for me to bounce off- I think he may have been jumping about more than me lol ;) It is wonderful to shoot with someone who is so passionate about photography :)

I cannot wait to work with Pete again soon!!!

I have been lucky enough to have Peter attend two of my creative photography workshops, and I can honestly say he's a pleasure to have along! Always friendly and I absolutely love his unique perspective and how he's able to get amazing photos by thinking outside of the box. Would thoroughly recommend him to both models and fellow photographers if you fancy a lovely day.

I was booked by Peter again last week, this time as part of a duo with another model at Daniel’s Mill in Bridgnorth.

Shoots with Peter are always relaxed, productive and a lot of fun! Wednesday was no exception and the two hours really flew by. We experimented with lighting in the dark rooms within, and lived our best ‘Little House on the Prairie‘ lives outside with grass beneath our feet and sunshine on our shoulders.

Peter even bought myself and the other model a coffee and a slice of quiche at the Mill’s cafe which we devoured whilst sat in the sunshine chatting... an absolutely lovely way to end an equally lovely shoot.

I saw a few of the images Peter took back of cam and they were beautiful! Peter is so passionate about what he does and I find that really inspiring when shooting with him!

I’d whole-heartedly recommend Peter to other models and I can’t wait to work with him again! Thanks for another lovely shoot Peter! :D

louise.

I got to meet Peter for the first time yesterday when he attended a model day with my resident model Louise2 here on pp. What a great guy he quickly settled into my studio even though it was his first time here. He obviously knows his way around a digital camera even if he doesn't think so, I know Louise enjoyed working with him and Im confident that he will have got some great images.

It he was very professional and considerate to the models needs and it was a real pleasure to have him in the studio and I hope he comes back again soon

I 100% recommend him to all models and studio owners.

Thank you peter for coming it was great meeting you.

Miss Rosie Lea

I was lucky enough to work with Peter again today when he booked me for a ‘fairy’ themed shoot at a local forest location. As always Peter was an absolutely delight to work with! He’s utterly kind, considerate and is the best company.

It’s so lovely to see Peter’s confidence in his abilities grow; he’s a fabulous, passionate photographer and the love he has for what he does is palpable.

Like a lot of people at the moment I was slightly apprehensive about starting back modelling after lockdown but I knew as soon as Peter booked me that my first shoot back was going to be comfortable and relaxed. As well as a lot of fun of course!

Recommended, as always, without hesitation. Thanks for another wonderful shoot Peter :)

It was my first time work with Peter. I would like to recommend him to any other models.

He is really such a nice and sweet person. And I was ask If I don't mind to be photographed on his motorbike. Which I was really exited and I'm glad he ask because I was to shy to ask him. I'm look forward to work with him again.
