I have worked with stu a few times now. I had a pause from modelling and have just done a duo with stu and a male model. I loved it so much that i reopened my account again! Stu is a pleasure to work with, always professional, humble and a fantastic photographer. Looking forward to working with him more in the future! Thank you stu!

Had a really amazing shoot with Stu in Salisbury during my recent Tour.

Communication was great prior to shooting and everything was so easy to organize. Stu even looked out for me and warned me about train issues to make sure I got there safely and back to my next booking after which I really appreciated.

Stu has a fabulous professional home studio. I walked in and was like oh wow! It’s got everything you may need and a stunning dressing room. Stu always made sure I was warm enough with heating and offered hot drinks too. He was so accommodating and certainly puts you at ease during the shoot.

During shooting we got through a variety of amazing different looks and concepts together. Stu is really good at giving the right balance between the models posing and his direction. He has a clear idea of what we are going to achieve and knows what he wants too. I am really interested in photography as well as modeling and I loved how he taught me about a few cool lighting techniques too.

From lingerie to ballet boots and ball gowns and much more it was a very exciting and unique shoot and I’m really impressed with the results!

110% recommended what a shoot!!!!

I had an amazing first shoot with Stu. Pre comms were great and Stu was prepared with tonnes of ideas for our shoot.

I was super excited for the shoot as I love his work and was not disappointed! We worked efficiently through sets and collaborated ideas to create some really unique images.

I cannot recommend Stu highly enough, I had such a fun day! Thank you 😊

I had my 2nd shoot with Stu today and it was just as much fun as the first. He's super easy to arrange a booking with, picked me up from the station and paid via transfer for my ease. Stu has loads of ideas and listens to mine too meaning we get awesome shots every time we work together. We did so many quirky and edgy sets today. I felt comfortable with Stu even working on some close up shots. I'd definitely work with him again.

Shoot absolutely flew by, great ideas and we certainly seemed to work well together.

The last time Stu and I worked together was 2 years ago, this time around it was for our first maternity shoot. Stu's home studio is warm, clean and he also has some beautiful materials, clothing, backdrops, lighting, its endless!

We shot some beautiful bump images which really showed off my new curves and amazing to look at watching my body growing and changing.

Stu is friendly, professional and really understands his lighting to create the best images. He even uploaded images the same day from our shoot!

Thank you so much for a lovely relaxed shoot.

Highly recommended to all models.

Kind regards Hannorah

Absolutely incredible second and third shoot with Stu during my tour down in Salisbury :) We've had to schedule and reschedule this so many times due to pandemic, but we finally got there and our patience has paid off :)!

I shot in Stu's home studio and we went and did some location work in nearby areas too. We covered just about everything! Stu's studio is an aerialist's dream, he has everything: lollipop, pole, hoop, rope, straps, you name it! We also did some dance, fashion, lingerie and concealed nude work. Stu was kind enough to offer me accommodation for 2 nights as well which he often offers touring models. He has such a beautiful home, the most adorable puppos and his wife is really sweet and chatty. They offered me food and dinners during my stay as well, which is above and beyond what I would ever expect. I felt truly looked after and welcomed into their home :)

I cannot emphasise what a genuinely lovely human Stu is. He is so kind and thoughtful in everything he does, nothing is ever too much. Did I mention he is a crazy good photographer too?! Because WOW these pictures are FIRE!! I absolutely love shooting with Stu, his attention to detail is brilliant and he's a joy to work with :)

Professional at all times, fun to be around, patient and easy going. An absolute dream to shoot with :) Can't wait for the next time!

If you're contemplating shooting with Stu, DO IT! You'll have the best time :)

My highest of recommendations!

I posted up a casting about a xc shoot with my pony, Stu was responsive and fast replying, we agreed to go ahead.

Stu was professional, friendly and on time. Stu had a good idea for photos and got some great shots.

Definitely recommend! Hope to shoot again soon!

sophmarie

Really glad me and Stu arranged a shopt just before lockdown. Stu quickly replied to my casting & we set a time instantly.

As always Stu was fully prepared with lots of different set ups to use in his home studio. His fun personality and professionalism shows throughout the shoot and time flew by! He is respectful of the models & always takes time to test lighting / equipment to make sure the images are spot on. We managed to shoot a wide range of implied fashion up to lingerie & nude alongside us chatting for England!

Stu uploaded images the same day and I am really happy with what we shot. Highly recommended! :)

Having just finished a shoot with Stu and am looking forward to working with him again. We worked at a good pace, covering a variety of themes that will undoubtedly enhance my profile. Stu is mindful of levels and is extremely courteous and respectful. He has an extensive range of props and clothing as well a extremely well quipped home studio.

I managed to turn up a couple of hours earlier in error - and he very kindly moved the shoot forward.

Thankyou Stu for a relaxed and enjoyable shoot.

Had a great first shoot with Stu at his home studio last week. It was so warm it was amazing as I really feel the cold but had no problem here which helped me warm up as we did a range of aerial from hoop to silks to a bit of rope. We had a laugh while working through different sets and all the chocolate a girl could ask for would recommend, great guy!

As you can see Stu has more than enough references now so I will keep it short...

Absolutely fantastic first shoot with Stu!

Really made me feed at ease, super professional, friendly and I'm in love with the images.

Extremely keen to work with him again 😀

It was SO nice catching up with Stu on my recent studio day at Inspire Studios!!!

I've worked with Stu for years now but it had been far too long since our last shoot so I was over the moon when I found out he had booked some time!

Stu is such a wonderful person - friendly, kind, respectful, a fab sense of humour - just all round great company :D

If you haven't guessed already I 100% recommend him! It was honestly such a pleasure working with him again and I hope we don't go as long without seeing each other again!

Saffie

First time working with Stu, sure it won't be the last. He kindly booked time at my recent studio day in Salisbury and came with great ideas of what he wanted to achieve. He articulates this with detail and includes his background ideas which is really useful to help understand how he is thinking and why he is applying the direction, styling or lighting that he is using.

Seen many of the images already and love them, so grateful that he took the time to join my day, looking forward to working some more in the future.

Fantastic first shoot with Stu at Inspire Studios!

We worked through a mixture of implied nude, fashion and dance together. Stu is just such a lovely guy through and through, he was really friendly and chatty throughout the shoot. Stu made me feel relaxed instantly which made the shoot very enjoyable and allowed me to flow through poses with ease. Stu was incredibly respectful of levels at all times too which was very much appreciated and once again, made me feel very comfortable :)

I absolutely loved what I saw on the back of the camera too- and seeing the photos being posted now I am overjoyed with what Stu captured! Shooting with Stu was a wonderful way to spend a few hours. I really hope we get the chance to work again soon (we are in talks with mention of the pole!!)

Wholly professional and a great load of fun :)

Thanks again Stu :)

Highly recommended

It was lovely to work with Stu for the first time last week on my model day at Inspire studios.

Stu was great to work with, friendly, great person to chat to and he made me feel comfortable throughout the shoot.

We did a mixture of natural light work and studio flash, Stu also brought along with him some cool scatter gels which gave some cool effects with the lighting.

I would would love to work with Stu again and I am happy to recommend him to other models out there.

Thanks for a great shoot.
