Third shoot with the lovely Portraits by Whisky we did leave it such a long time well over two years since our last shoot so we had a bit of a reunion as well.

Me and Whisky shot recently during my studio weekend at Kempston studio and he kindly booked 3 hours with me on day 1/2 of in the evening.

Prior to shooting pre-communication was excellent and everything was super easy to plan and organise. Whisky sent many messages leading up to the shoot planning ideas ect.. felt like we’d been planning and chatting for months so felt great when the shoot day finally arrived.

Whisky was so organised and sent a call sheet/shoot plan ahead of time where he had planned every 30 minutes of the shoot. So 6 looks and ideas over the 3 hours. We did have a very productive shoot and managed to get all of the looks done and overall got some great images together.

More than recommended! Can’t thank him enough for such a lovely productive photoshoot during my Studio Weekend at Kempston Studio.

Had the pleasure of working with whiskey when he booked onto a duo studio day with Alyssa Taylor at Kempston studio, whiskey was great with his pre communication and knew exactly what he wanted to shoot

He brought his own outfits for a lot of the shots he wanted to capture and upon arrival was really enthusiastic

Whiskey was easy to talk to and made shooting comfortable throughout and a lot of fun

He sent images through very quickly and let us have a choice of images we liked

Would recommend working with whiskey

This was my second time working with Whiskey when he booked onto my duo day with Georgia Mae. He was very hot on the pre comms and sent a detailed plan prior. On the day he arrived on time and showed us the pieces he had purchased prior and was respectful throughout. We had some lovely conversations and he regularly showed us the BOC shots. He promptly sent over raws and let us choose some of our favourites which is always much appreciated.

I'd love to work with him again! Highly recommend

Met Whiskey on a photo walk after chatting on PurplePort and Instagram for a few months. calendars didn’t line up to get a shoot in but was great we managed to get some shots together on a photo walk in Bedford!

Whiskey was very good at showing me some of the shots as we were going and had ideas as we were out and about!

Very nice and respectful guy, would recommend shooting with him!

I shot with Whiskey on my 2nd slot of my sold-out studio days at Kempston Studio. He had already sent me a detailed plan previous to the shoot and I was amazed by the ideas! I had an amazing time shooting with him. I thoroughly enjoyed the different concepts, using smoke machine and different lights. We got on well and I wasn’t pushed above my levels. I would most definitely like to shoot again!

Another great shoot with Whisky who is now starting to use his camera settings as never before. Whisky is always chatty and respectful to his models.

Whisky arrived with ideas for Gel lighting that he would like to shoot so we worked together to reproduce some images and went free reign on some others.

Happily recommend Whiskey.

I had the pleasure of working with Whiskey on a studio event at Kempston studio last Saturday. From the start Whiskey was polite, respectful and outgoing. He had a great enthusiasm and his charisma shined through.

Whiskey really is a great energy to be around and he really is amazing at giving direction when he wanted a specific pose/ look.

I was astonished when I received the images back- I don’t think there was a single bad shot taken.

Wouldn’t hesitate to work with Whiskey again and I already cannot wait for another shoot hopefully soon with him.

I had the pleasure of shooting with whiskey again recently at the Valentine’s Day event with myself and bambiii eyes at kempston studios. He arrived on time and was enthusiastic and a joy to shoot with from start to finish. I believe whiskey has really improved over time and just keeps getting better and better. Both Bambiii and myself were blown away by the images. Highly recommended!

Perfect Comms, really chatty loads of conversation beforehand. He bought some props, very friendly and easy to deal with. He made me feel very comfortable very soon, very happy with the shoot and would love for him to come round again.

Thanks so much for a very enjoyable shoot!

Great to welcome back Whiskey for a shoot with Kate Pop. Arrived with his shoot plan outfits and props which we had already discussed beforehand. Friendly and chatty to his model and respectful always happy to recommend Whiskey

Whiskey is not only a lovely person, but is also super talented and super organised. I knew exactly what was going to happen at the shoot and I felt so prepared which was ideal actually because I had driven a long way to Kempston so I ensured that I had bought everything that we had discussed during pre-comms. His pre-comms are especially good, I knew exactly what was expected, and knew what I was going to be doing, for most of the shoot, whiskey had various sets that he wanted to achieve, and I’m pleased to say that I think we pretty much nailed it!

Whiskey as a person is very kind, very considerate and very knowledgeable of his craft. I felt very comfortable and at ease with him, and felt like I had known him for years! I really hope that I get the chance to work with whiskey again as his style, and his organisation matches my style so well. And at times my lack of organisation! LOL I love an organised photographer!!!! But anyway, all I can say is he is such a gentleman you will enjoy every moment of working with him. Just wish I lived closer to him. Thank you so much for booking me whiskey and I hope that I see you again soon :)

I had my second shoot with whisky at kempston studios and once again whisky was a joy to work with! He brought along all the outfits we needed for the concepts we had discussed prior to the shoot. We also did some sillohette shots which turned out great! Would definitely recommend models to shoot with him!

Great to have Whiskey in the studio shooting with Kate Stardoll. Whiskey was in contact before the shoot with ideas and of what he wanted to shoot and I managed to bring in a few props from home to help him realise these.

Whiskey was chatty and good fun to have and Kate and him worked through the sets and he went away with some good images.

Happy to recommend Whiskey and looking forward to seeing him again soon.

I shot with Whiskey on Saturday after being unsure about the whole weather situation. He had a plan in mind of where he wanted to shoot and turned up on time. He was perfectly comfortable and very friendly with my chaperone who was comfortable around Whiskey. We got through a few looks in multiple locations that he had some good ideas for and lost a bit track of time and we went 20 minutes over! It was a successful shoot and he got lots of shots. Would definitely like to work with Whiskey again!

Had a really good Christmas remote shoot with WhiskeyImaging. We’d shot before both on location and at my home studio so it was lovely to introduce Whisky to this new way of shooting.

Using sharing tools on zoom this photographers was able to control my canon camera and settings from his location. After the shoot I sent over the raw files for him to edit via Dropbox.

Prior to shooting as always Whisky was excellent at pre-communications and shoot planning and everything was so carefully planned and explained to me. I loved the festive shoot idea and Whisky even provided a little budget for some Christmassy props. I got some candy canes and some mince pies to use. We used my Christmas backdrop and created such a cool Christmassy set up it was so much fun.

Whisky pretty much got the hang of the remote software pretty quickly and easily and everything flowed so well as we did various Christmas looks and themes. I was super pleased with the results and we managed to achieve some really great images together.

Once again I’d more than recommended Whisky and can’t thank him enough for another wonderful shoot together :)

Had such an amazing second shoot with Whisky Imaging. This time we shot at my Home Studio in Cambridge.

Prior to shooting pre-communication was excellent and we had lots of pre-shoot discussions regarding planning and everything. The shoots theme was mainly Cosplay and Whisky had just the best ideas. I absolutely loved how creative and unique they were. I hadn’t seen such a unique spin on Cosplay before.

On the day of shooting Whisky arrived prompt and ready to shoot and had brought some lovely props along with him too. Everything just flowed really well and we did a variety of looks and concepts. We shot the traditional Spider-Man & Spider-Man Venom plus a fashion look as well.

The images were so amazing and I was so pleased with the results!!

Had a really fantastic shoot with Whiskey Imagining yesterday. Pre-communications and planning was excellent. Everything was so easy to organize.

Whiskey Imaging had also picked out a stunning location for us to shoot at in Ashwell. It was really helpful and I love in when photographers scout out locations prior to shooting this makes things so much easier on the day. We shot in Ashwell springs as well as by a beautiful church. During shooting this photographer was easy to work with and talk to. We got on really well and I really enjoyed flowing throw poses and chatting.

We got through a variety of looks and themes in a short space of time with some stunning backdrops as well.

Respectful, friendly and easy to work with. I would love to work with him again in the future.
