Another very enjoyable shoot at this super studio. Thank you to Alley for all your hard work and help to make my shoot with Ayla such a pleasure. See you again soon.

This was my 8th visit to Alley at PoZers. This time for a full day event with Marie Jean Taylor posing first as Audrey Hepburn and then in the afternoon session as Bettie Page.

Alley provided a wonderfully varied selection of lighting set ups for the event, that naturally co-ordinated with Marie’s different outfits and represented the styles of the period. The superb lighting combined with Marie’s posing skills resulted in a great number of top-notch shots. Alley as always ensured that the lighting was adjusted for each photographer so that they achieved the optimal images.

There was an endless supply of liquid refreshments and a superb buffet lunch.

Alley is such a warm and friendly person who really goes the extra mile to ensure a successful event. I look forward to visiting again soon.

Thank you, Alley, and of course you and PoZers are 100% recommended.

Once again shooting at Pozers, with a Batman Returns theme. Had the pleasure of working Alley again after what seemed like an eternity. This time with Helen Diaz.

Creating some cracking lighting and effects, Alley was able to bring the ideas and images to life, This lady works so hard to make stuff happen, nothing is too much trouble and you always know you’ll come away after the shoot, totally satisfied with the whole experience.

Thank you Alley for another fantastic day.

Sorry for the delay of reference. See you soon.

I had another super creative day booked at Pozers Studio recently!

I was utterly spoilt with the first half a day with Red Chair Photography on a "Cat woman" themed shoot (with the original suit and mask!) and another half a day booked with Gothic Image! It was such a highly enjoyable, creative, BONKERS day!!

Alley was the perfect host, on hand to help with lighting (which was beautifully lit), Tea, Coffee and biscuits (My addiction with shortbread biscuits continues! I must owe Alley a few 100 by now!)

I absolutely LOVED the photos from both shoots... so many amazing creative images to choose from! Alley was also super kind and madly creative to pick up her body paint brushes and design a very impromptu spontaneous look for our second shoot of the day-which was completely unplanned and BEAUTIFUl! I had forgotten just how talented Alley is at bodyart, I LOVED it!

I cannot recommend Alley highly enough, a truly amazing creative, a diamond in the crown of Purpleport. I hope to see you soon!

This was my first time shooting at PoZers and it will not be my last, the studio although not fantastically large has that Narnia feel to it as the shooting space is more than adequate for even a Duo shoot. I went to this studio on the recommendation of Marie Jean Taylor who invited me to her first B/G duo day with Retro Rob and what a wonderful 8 hours I spent there. Ally the "Hostess with the Mostess" is a wonderful individual,her sets were spot on for the style of shoot, also styling the models too, Her lighting knowledge is second to none,she is an absolute joy to work with and has a wonderful sense of humour.being an 8 hour shoot Ally laid on a buffet lunch which would have fed the 5000 catering for every dietary needs also the drinks tea, coffee etc were on the go all day. As usual the time flew by as it does when you are enjoying yourself and I did immensely. Thank you Ally for a fantastic Photographic experience I now know your reputation is not exaggerated you not only know your "Art" but you convey a great deal of knowledge and love in all things Photographic .I look forward to my next adventure at PoZers. Highly recommended.

I had my first experience of PoZers studio yesterday, a charity shoot with two lovely models, Helen Diaz and Naomi Marie. The studio, situated just outside the charming town of Cricklade in Wiltshire, is delightful in the truest meaning of the word. Extremely well equipped, lots of dresses, costumes and props available to use. An impressive array of lights and backdrops and anything else you may need to ensure a successful shoot.

The studio has one other remarkable asset, something unique and exclusive to PoZers. It's owner, creator and driving force, the delightful Alley. One of those people that you just instantly like. She's charming, friendly, welcoming, hospitable, organised, talented, the list goes on but if you read her other reviews you'll get the picture. Always on hand to help with the lighting and sets and always looking after the models and photographers. Tea, coffee, cold drinks and biscuits are always readily available, you're welcome to make your own but Ally's usually there first, and she does make a nice cuppa. Above all, the things that stand out are Alleys love of her Job and her boundless enthusiasm.

I thoroughly enjoyed the six hours i spent there and would 100% recommend Alley and PoZers to everyone.

Thank you Alley, you're a star:-)

Wow! Where do I start!? Alley has to be one of the most multi talented creative individuals I have ever met. Literally you throw an idea out and this lady will make it happen and go beyond! Alley is literally The Fairy Godmother.

We did a recylclable fashion event and the outfits that Alley created were simply stunning and you could see just how much hard work and intricate detail she had put into each costume. I love coming to Pozers as you are always guaranteed to have a great laugh and whenever I’m there something hilarious always happens and we end up just giggling away like school children hahaha

I highly recommend to all creatives if you want to create something unique and different, Alley is there to make all your magical dreams come true!

Was my first time at Pozers, for an avant garde editorial event with Pippa Doll, created and hosted by Alley.

Was one of the best studio workshops I’ve ever done.

Alley was totally amazing, right from her initial comms through to supplying us with endless food/drinks and some amazing lighting/props. She was super friendly from start to finish.

And then there was her own outfit designs, which were just jaw droppingly editorial. From a dress made out of newspapers to one that consisted purely of toilet rolls. Was a serious level of creativity that I felt privileged to photograph.

The workshop allowed plenty of time so that even with 5/6 different looks we never once felt rushed, and Alley happily let me to use a couple of my own props.

She chose Pippa for this event which was a truly inspired decision as she has such an expressive versatile editorial look. And had just the right sense of humour to cope with some of the ideas we were throwing around, particularly those involving the toilet roll dress :-)

I’ve probably never laughed so much on a shoot. Can’t wait to head back there again sometime. Highly recommended.

I recently organised another AMAZING CHARITY STUDIO DAY at the fantastic Pozers studio with the proceeds going towards a little girls disabled chair. I knew Pozers was the perfect location for this; a real home from home environment, in a friendly setting run by the sensational Alley!

The proceeds of the day reached a whopping ***£1300***, all thanks to the kind generosity of the photographers attending on the day and those that gave further donations via the Purpleport forums.

I modelled alongside the beautiful Naomi Marie who kindly donated her modelling and time to the cause. It was such an enjoyable day with fantastic photographic lighting set ups by Alley. The results were beautiful! We were also very blessed with the weather and really enjoyed using the woodland in the grounds for part of the shoot!

Thank You so much Alley for your wonderful hospitality, here is the next!

Highly recommended to all creatives, Helen xx

Had a great shoot at poZers yesterday. Alley the owner is just lovely, she made me feel very welcome, ensured I was comfortable all throughout the shoot, provided a flow of coffee and great conversation.

She made the effort to set up and change lights for a less able photographer and was on hand at all times to help.

Her studio is like a grotto of costumes and props!! I don't think there's anything she doesn't have in there - from lingerie to Alice in wonderland style toad stools!

Despite all the kit the studio had plenty of space to change, various backdrops, was clean and tidy with all the mod cons and the shots we got came out beautifully.

Would def ecommend and hoping to arrange a day there soon!

First time at the studio to shoot TwinkleNose.

Alley was great in pre-shoot comms and extremely helpful through the whole process.

A very friendly atmosphere prevailed throughout. Nothing was too much trouble.

Brilliant lighting by Alley.

Had a great, productive and entertaining afternoon.

I have worked with Alley a number of times now and her enthusiasm, professionalism and hard work is second to none. She puts her heart and soul into her workshops and I always leave with lots of great shots. Alley is a lovely person who is easy to get along with and enjoys having a laugh in between set changes, doing make up and lighting. I don't know how she survives some days!

As a new photographer to studio work, she put me at ease and gave me lots of help and encouragement.

I would definitely recommend Pozers Studio to any model or photographer, professional or beginner.

Worked with Alley on a project and I have to say I'm blown away with the results. She has great comms and is super-helpful. She is truly one of a kind and I can't recommend her highly enough and again thanks for everything x

Shot Aimee is weird here for 6 hours today. Alley as always is fun, chatty and always on hand with a bucket of coffee.

I love shooting at Pozers, it is always a relaxed, friendly, family type environment. Alley really knows her lighting set ups. I just tell Alley what I want to achieve and in 10 minutes - there it is!

No wonder I keep coming back!

I had my first shooting event over at Pozersstudio today, what can I say Ally is a gem, the shot was fantastic, she had it down to a tee, she was so attentive, organised, so lovely & down to earth, if you ever want a event to be held that's the place to go.

She done a little buffet for us, she was none stop looking after all our needs for all the 6 hours we were there.

Thanks again for a lovely event, your hospitality, getting some fantastic images, hope to return back in the future.

I worked with Alley again recently on an amazing Bridal and Lingerie Workshop, using her wonderful studio. As always we were offered top class hospitality and Alleys beautiful and enviable Lindsay Adler backdrop! It was such a wonderful small group and the day was perfectly run and organised. The lighting and buffet lunch was wonderful, which is always popular with visiting photographers and models! :)

Super highly recommended to all and really look forward to the next event (Charity event in August- all welcome!) Helen x
