I had the great pleasure of working with Andy yesterday at very short notice after a model had unexpectedly became free.

Andy as always was amazing and just made it happen. He is a master of light and always willing to advise or mentor as required. Even though I have over 20 years experience I always learn something new when I visit.

The models he has worked with before are all obviously very fond of him as was Victoriah last night.

I can unreservedly highly recommend Andy to all photographers, models and creatives.

Andy has assisted on a few of my shoots at Fareham, but I finally got round to actually shooting with him myself. I wasn't disappointed! His enthusiasm matches mine, and whilst we had an objective, we also had lots of fun trying lots of different lighting styles and just experimenting and having fun! Andy not only took some of the best pin up images of me, but we got some stunning images that we didn't expect to get too. I'll 100% be back again for more shoots with Andy.

As a fairly new model Andy has helped me gain confidence in posing and getting better outcomes each time on my shoots, such a lovely man and really enjoy shooting together beautiful images

Thank you Andy!

I look forward to next time

Shot at Fareham Studio and Andy was kind enough to assist us with lighting, gels and set ideas. A lovely and helpful man. Very much enjoyed shooting at his studio and his assistance

Well where do I start...I could probably write a whole essay on how lovely Andy is!

I had met Andy many times during the past few years at Fareham Studio, we always got on and chatted easily when there, but this was the first time we had actually worked together. This was a game changer. Conversation was constant and easy, it felt so comfortable.

The shoot was relaxed and easy going so it flowed very well. We shot some images that aren't in my usual portfolio which was really nice to do. Andy has a great eye and is a very talented photographer....the images prove this over and over again!

Andy is honestly such a lovely, genuine and professional person. I cannot wait till we arrange another shoot! I feel it will definitely be a regular thing now.

Thank you Andy, you are amazing!

I had the pleasure of meet Andy through Carl Grim as he asked Andy to bring his Royal Enfield motorcycle to Carls studio.

Where they both got to shoot me on Andy’s bike

Being the first time meet Andy he was very Polite and such gentleman!

It was a brilliant shoot and we got some fantastic images!

Thank you so much Andy.

Looking forward to working with you again.

I met Andy, owner of Fareham Photographic Studio, some years back when he popped round to my studio to meet a fellow Fareham photographer.

We have been planning to shoot together for some time and yesterday it eventually happened. Andy brought his antique Royal Enfield motorcycle around to my studio and we had a wonderful few hours shooting the indomitable Roxy Knight.

Andy is a real gentleman, a good photographer with and a pleasure to work with.

Had my first shoot with Andy yesterday.

I had met Andy before during a shoot with another photographer at fareham studio before and Andy was great then but this time was amazing having him take the photos.

Andy was able to capture the feeling I wanted the shots to show. He’s full of knowledge and nothing is to much of ask (within reason)

Andy is polite friend respectful and a great laugh.

If you get the chance to work with him I’d 100% say snap that opportunity up as you won’t regret it.

Thanks Andy, I look forward to seeing the images and hope to work with you again.

This was my second time meeting Andy but first time with him behind the camera. I knew I felt comfortable with him when we initially met, but in the 20 mins we first shot, we created "some of the best work he's ever done"... not my words 🙄

He is funny, chatty and a very warm and respectful person. As well as being MEGA talented! I would definitely go back to Fareham Studio if they'll have me and most DEFINITELY work with Andy again!

My first ever one to one shoot studio shoot and I was lucky enough that it was with the wonderful Johannah at Fareham Studio.

With his vast experience Andy was a superb tutor taking me through the lighting, some of the posing even suggesting some camera settings and backdrops.

He is friendly and chatty and very easy to get on with and I look forward to working with him again, I hope in the not too distant future.

My second shoot with Andy and every bit as fun as the first!

Andy had a great idea in mind which we discussed and he got a MUA in to ahcieve the look he was going for. We matched a=outfits and the pictures looked amazing.

Andy is really talented in both photography and lighting and is really fun to work with. Very highly recommended :)

Johannah

At last - a shoot with Andy that is long overdue. Great to see Andy looking and feeling so well. I had a very enjoyable shoot, producing some flattering images that will enhance my portfolio. I was comfortable throughout working to my photographic levels with Andy and as I anticipated he was as always respectful and professional. Andy is happy to share his expertise so the session was a learning opportunity improving my scope and confidence. I look forward to working with Andy again.

Had my first shoot with Andy today, and it went amazing!

I have met Andy multiple times when I've shot at the great Fareham Studio, which made it a very easy shoot as I knew he was very friendly and professional.

We shot multiple sets at his studio, including lingerie and fetish, using many of his great backdrops and props.

At the start of the shoot Andy made us tea and we had a chat, making us both feel more comfortable! We discussed plans for the shoot, which Andy had loads of creative ideas, and listened to all of my ideas too.

He was a complete gentlemen throughout the shoot, very easy to talk to with a great sense of humour.

From looking at the images at the shoot they all looked so good, I can't wait to see the rest!

I highly recommend Andy, and would shoot with him again! Thankyou for a great shoot! :)

Worked with Andy whilst I was at Fareham Studio for a half studio day and it was a real pleasure to work with such a talented photographer that really knows what he's doing!

Had a great time, the photos are awesome and don't even need much editing to them (if at all) as they're just that good! I would highly recommend working with Andy and I'm very much looking forward to working with him again some time next year.

Thanks again :D

Had yet another brill shoot with the wonderful Andy gaden.

I had asked Andy if we could shoot some lingerie, and it somewhat evolved into doing some Marilyn Monroe style images which were fab!

Andy is such a laugh to work with I love working with him!

So i shot with Andy yesterday at my studio day and he is terrific.

He was there at the studio early, ready to start.

I do hope we get the opportunity to work together again.

Thanks so much for a wonderful day.

After working alongside Andy at Fareham Studio many times for various events and workshops, it was a pleasure to finally model for him during a duo group shoot last weekend. Andy is so creative and produces beautiful lighting set-ups time and time again, as well as being professional, down-to-Earth, funny and reliable. I am always well cared for at Fareham Studio and look forward to working with Andy many times in the future! Highly recommended.
