Fantastic second shoot with Poppy. We had a two part shoot, first at Poppy's home shooting relaxed fashion and lingerie, and then took a short trip to the local woods for some autumn fashion.

Poppy is a joy to work with, she was very welcoming from the moment I arrived and chatty throughout, had outfits prepared that were perfectly styled for what we wanted to achieve and she just gets on with it. I particularly liked that she was so engaged in what we were shooting, making lots of suggestions for ideas, very keen to see what we were creating, and really encouraging about the images we produced which is always great to hear.

Poppy is the consummate professional and I would 100% recommend her to any photographer.

Thanks Poppy, look forward to next time.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Poppy on a forest-based lingerie shoot, and I couldn’t have asked for a more dedicated or professional model. From the very start, her pre-shoot communication was fantastic—organised, clear, and responsive, which made planning seamless and set the tone for what would turn out to be an incredible session.

On the day, Poppy arrived fully prepared with a brilliant selection of outfits and combinations, offering such a variety that we had endless options to play with. Her attention to detail with her wardrobe choices demonstrated her commitment to creating the best images possible. Each outfit change brought a fresh dynamic to our shots, and she matched each look with the perfect energy and elegance.

Shooting in the forest created a unique, natural setting, and Poppy adapted beautifully. She was completely at ease with the surroundings, using the light, shadows, and textures to enhance each shot. Her awareness of the environment was impressive—she instinctively found ways to work with the natural elements, bringing depth and artistry to every pose. I genuinely felt she brought my vision to life and added even more than I could have hoped for.

Throughout the session, Poppy was an absolute dream to work with—patient, receptive to direction, and full of creative input. Her professionalism combined with her natural talent made her the ideal collaborator. She brought a fantastic positive energy to the shoot, which made the entire experience enjoyable and inspiring.

We captured so many beautiful images that I’m genuinely struggling to narrow down my choices; every shot feels special. Poppy’s talent and commitment have given me an abundance of incredible photos, which is the best kind of problem to have! I would highly recommend her to any photographer looking for a talented, versatile, and dedicated model. I am already looking forward to the next opportunity to work together. Thank you, Poppy, for a truly outstanding shoot!

Just had a fantastic 2hr shoot with Poppy. We were planning to do an outdoor shoot but decided to shoot indoors instead due to the weather.

Despite the gloom outside we were able to make the best of the natural light inside and we made some fantastic images. Poppy was very friendly and down to earth and provided a great selection of lingerie and outfits to shoot in. The shoot was effortless and relaxed and Poppy provided some great creative input as well as posing beautifully.

Overall one of the best shoots I've ever had and I would recommend Poppy to anyone.

I had a very successful portrait shoot with Poppy today. The shoot was a portrait prelude to a highly orchestrated conceptual location shoot in the near future. Poppy has a wonderful character, charm and demeanour which underpins her extensive experience in modelling and performance art.

The shoot was pre-planned online and Poppy's communications and input were excellent. Poppy understood the brief fully and therefore the shoot in both digital and analog media went without a hitch.

Poppy arrived exactly on time with full makeup which was immaculate and totally appropriate for the shoot.

Poppy's high level of professionalism makes a seemingly challenging shoot a whole bunch easier!

We covered a lot of work with three subsets in a relatively short time and exactly as planned.

Needless to say I'm very pleased with the outcome.

So thank you Ma'am for a great day.

I'm looking forward to the next location shoot with Poppy, so time to get planning!

Monday was the first time I'd had a chance to work with Poppy, luckily we were working in the same part of the UK at the same time so we managed to get a few hours to work together. I'm really glad we did, she is such a great person to work with, she is kind, approachable, hilariously funny at the same time as being very very experienced and a true, true professional. When you meet Poppy her natural beauty is right there in front of you, stunning looks, amazing skin, rich shiny hair, lots of energy and I could not be happier.... I just have the small problem of editing now.. so many to choose from..!

Poppy and I got together today after a few years and I didn't hesitate to take the opportunity to work with her again when travelling to her area as I knew the results would be visually stunning for a portrait session.

Poppy was very welcoming and prepared even though it was a short shoot. She makes the photographer's job so easy, she knows about lighting, depth of field, lenses, and can have such an input to make sure that the shot works and it goes without saying her pose sequence is flawless and unbelievable, showing emotions as well as elegance and class at all times.

Moreover Poppy has a delightful personality and so fun to work with, she brings a model shoot to a higher level.

I can only recommend Poppy very highly with confidence. Working with her is a real treat.

Yes, the comms were great, Poppy looked amazing, we shot some lovely stuff and the time flew by! All of that is true but I want to add something else.

I’d looked at Poppy’s portfolio a number of times – she’s relatively local to me, she’s an accomplished professional model, she’s beautiful, and her reviews are top-notch! What more could you ask!?

Perhaps I was a little intimidated – the glamourous images, Poppy’s sophisticated look, the people she’s worked with – maybe I thought there would be an ego to match?

Well I couldn’t have been more wrong. Poppy is lovely! She’s chatty, energetic, funny, relatable and very down to earth! We started with a few ideas I’d prepared in advance and then just went with the flow. It was a really enjoyable afternoon!

Don’t make the assumption I did and don’t delay. Arrange a shoot with Poppy, she's beautiful on the inside too!

A great 1st shoot with Poppy. Poppy is a talented and experienced model who poses elegantly with absolute ease. Her ability to create beautiful looks is awesome. Hair and makeup were done to perfection and she had a fantastic selection of outfits to work with.

We worked through a few different styles, with a combination of natural and flash lighting, Poppy providing excellent creative input to the shoot. She ha a natural elegance that adds a real class to the resulting images. The shoot was wonderfully creative and really productive.

Interesting and lively conversation ensured the shoot was truly enjoyable. Poppy is a great model to work with and I look forward to arranging many future shoots. I would highly recommend Poppy to all photographers.

Poppy is one of my favourite models to work with. We have worked together frequently over the last two years and throughout that time she has really helped me to develop as a photographer. However in all those previous shoots we have never before worked in a studio.

What a fabulous time we had as we worked through as many sets as we could, ably assisted by Rin with her lighting setups.

Poppy is an unbelievably beautiful woman with a sophisticated and elegant look who can really make your images pop.

If you have never met or worked with Poppy then you really should do yourself a favour and book her as soon as you can. Definitely one of the very best on PurplePort. Recommended without any ifs or buts. :-) :-)

Thanks for another great shoot. Can't wait for the next time.

Poppy is a pleasure to work with.

Great pre shoot communication made arrangements simple.

She had a range of outfits to choose from which we made work in a small but good space to work in with natural light and her great features to highlight.

She poses effortlessly requiring minimal direction.

Most importantly she has character, an opinion and is fun to talk to and engage with whilst we both put our respective shifts in 😋

Thanks again Poppy and I look forward to the next chapter xx

Hello Purple Porters ,

I add this reference with abundant joy.

I loathe the M25 & Heathrow but excellent models nay say you I mean people as exceptional as Poppy makes it very much worth it.

From the very beginning, arranging the shoot I was super bowled by the absolute ease & professionalism in communications which makes a shoot flow from start to finish. Poppy is super fast at answering questions which can nor ever should be under estimated.

I met Poppy at 8am at a beach in Emsworth which was absolutely a delight not only for the excellent company of Poppy but also the wooftastic dogs on walks but even then Poppy who knows this beach well knew of quiet spots which made our fashion images flow so much better. Poppy is truly a professional as she looks for natural light to give an image that extra bit by the sun bringing a directed light.

After this segment we then went to Poppy's absolutely delightful apartment which is graced with Poppy's style & natural light.

Poppy has an extensive wardrobe, unfortunately I did not book enough time to capture more of it.

Poppy is outstandingly beautiful in looks but also personality which made the shoot a joy as her warmth of character , infectious abundance of joy to be around made the shoot a highly enjoyable.

I already have a further 2 bookings with Poppy.

Thank you for a brilliant time & what a joy to meet Jinx & Niko.

Worked with Poppy last week. We shot a real selection of images that shows how diverse Poppy is as a model. From wedding dresses to commercial to staggering rooftop images. Poppy is a wonderful model to work with, never complains, true professional and respectful. Cant praise her high enough, everyone needs Poppy the Professional in their portfolio!

Poppy’s a consummate pro and fun to work with! We had a relaxed shoot, exploring natural light at her pad and then out on location. Poppy really knows her angles and has superb skin, a trim figure and top notch MU/hair/styling. Thoroughly recommended.

Had my first shoot with Poppy last weekend, her professionalism, sense of humour and personality made the shoot a joy and it flew by.

Pre shoot comms were answered promptly and despite having to drive 2 hours to get to the studio, arrived with time to spare and ready to go. Effortlessly switching between styles and poses to capture the look I was after.

Will certainly be booking Poppy again.

Not enough words to sum Poppy up but 3 that do are Professional, Beautiful & Must. Must because you must book her. Every shoot we work together, Poppy knows exactly how to work the camera and bring so much to every shoot with her wonderful personality and untouchable professionalism. True joy.

Don`t think about shooting with her, Book her now.

SimonsPhotography

Booked Poppy for a Full Day Workshop. Communications where excellent. She arrived early and proceeded to wow all the attending photographers with her beauty, both with posing and her personality. The interactions showed all what a truly fun person to work with and professional throughout. Already planning on booking Poppy again.

I worked with Poppy at a SimonsPhotography portfolio builder.

Poppy was amazingly easy to work with seem to get along well with the whole group. Her posing ability and beauty made it very easy to get to the shots that I wanted with minimal direction.

I hope to work with her again.
