Met Mike for the first time last week and what an amazing photoshoot we had.

Clicked from the moment we met. Had a great time, but also produced some fantastic images.

Mike is very professional, very respectful, very kind but also fun to be around. We had great photoshoot that we both looking forward to working together again :)

Great photographer, has his own ideas but also wants model input and helps with poses too, trully enjoyed working with him.

Fully recommending.

Such a delight to shoot with Mike, definitely one of my favourite togs. I’d been itching to wear the parachute dress, and Mike kindly let me model it for him.

Shooting with Mike is always fun, easy going, and if you’re lucky you might even get to stop at the pub for a cheeky wine after!

His work speaks for itself, edits are always done to a high standard.

Thankyou Mike , you’re a ⭐️

Mike and I have been chatting for a while and discussing ideas, it was great to find a photographer in the same town.

Weather delayed a previously planned shoot, but we finally got a date in, and where completely blown away by the good weather we had. We had planned for rain, but quickly fell back on another theme we both liked. Mike brought some great outfit choices and props that really worked for the theme. Conversation was easy, and he really knew what he wanted from the shots, which made the day go very smoothly. He is clearly very talented at photography, and knows how to create beautifully artistic images. He was kind and kept making sure I was happy with how everything was going. I can't recommend highly enough, and look forward to hopefully working together again on some of our other ideas!

I am been fortunate enough to shoot with Mike on several occasions now. Mike covers a range of genres, not least his most prolific work with dancers. However, as a professional fashion model, I cannnot overstate how talented Mike is in this area of photography too. He has a hugely creative flair, a very high level of skill in terms of lighting and plenty of robust ideas that marry very well with my own ideas for fashion shoots. We have excellent communication both ahead and during the shoot. Mike is very fair and generous in his submitting of proofs and subsequent editing and all completed within a very reasonable time frame. Mike is clearly passionate about photography and, as a dance Mum as well as a model myself, I am always happy to recommend him to young dancers for shoots. My daughter is both a model and and dancer and has some great images produced by Mike. He has worked wonders for my portfolio development, and I know we will have an ongoing professional relationship. Enjoy your shoot with Mike.

Had the first shoot (and hopefully not the last one;-) with Mike in a beautiful area. Mike made me feel comfortable and guided when necessary, he had great ideas, came well prepared, and time flew when shooting! Such a nice, chatty and funny person too. Loads of brilliant images!

I am so happy to see Mike again. This was our second shoot and it turned out great. We had little time, but we took amazing photos. Working with Mike is a pleasure, he is a great professional. I'm glad I had a chance to know him. I can't wait to meet again.

Mike and I had arranged to shoot at an abandoned location. I love Mike's style of photography and was looking forward to our shoot together. Unfortunately, we read online, that our facility was no longer available and still we headed down to try our luck.

We were met with rubbish weather and a boarded-up facility. However, to our surprise, there was a guard with two dogs doing his rounds. I tried my luck and asked if we could come in for a shoot. He was the nicest person, who gave us a tour, a history lesson, and gave us just over an hour to produce some images.

Mike is a really lovely man who has lots of experience with outdoor shoots. I am looking forward to receiving the edits, and I would definitely recommend working with him.

I had my first photoshoot with Mike and it was great.

He is so funny and also an amazing professional.

I didn't feel when the time with him flew by.

I can't wait to work with him again.

Have done several different shoots with Mike, I recommend working with him to anybody. He is a lovely person and a very versatile photographer always looking for new styles and ways to expand. It was lovely shooting with him again this time, we had a different style, which was sort of retro vintage. We had spent quite a few hours working and managed to get some great shots done from it!

Had my first shoot with Mike today! What can I say, Mike is absolutely lovely. He knows exactly how to get the perfect shot and makes you feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera. He’s extremely knowledgeable when it comes to what would look good for the pictures from an artistic perspective. So glad I got to shoot with Mike and looking forward to shooting with him again. I would highly recommend! :)

I have been lucky enough to shoot with Mike on at least three occasions now. We consistently up our game each time we do a shoot, and both enjoy expanding our range a little more each time. Mike is incredibly conscientious and pays a good amount of attention to detail. He clearly has considerable knowledge and expertise as a photographer and director. Our communication both in messaging and in person is robust and clear. I'm absolutely sure that we will enjoy many more shoots together. He really is an excellent contact for me to experiment with new ideas to fulfill and expand my portfolio. Mike is very reliable and I would recommend him to any model, both who are looking to build modelling experience and also those who are looking to broaden their portfolios.

Mike is a lovely friendly Photographer who made me feel at ease from the second I met him. We had spoken a lot previously before our shoot to plan out ideas and get a very clear understanding about what we would like to achieve. Mike is full of interesting ideas, very knowledgeable in various locations that suit the theme and what works well for images, very open to new and creative ideas. Mike brought some changes of costumes to provide kore options and was lovely enough to provide travel to the agreed location. We managed to get some amazing shots, had a laugh and both learnt new things from one another. Overall I had a very pleasant experience with Mike. So much so, we have a couple more ideas planned together and I cannot wait to get them in motion. I would highly recommend Mike to any model. You will not regret it! 😊😊

Mike was kind enough to pick me up, he even brought drinks and snacks, was so easy to work with, we just really had so much fun ! It really couldn’t have been a better day! I’m so happy with the edits I’ve seen so far, really hope to work with you again super soon Mike thankyou x

First shoot with Mike and hands down one of my best shoots to date. We had such fun with a beach shoot and took real advantage of the good weather.

Mike really is a talented photographer and the results show it. Such a lovely guy who was great with directions and ideas. Would definitely love to shoot again in future.

My second shoot with Mike and it was just as amazing as the first. Mike is welcoming, easy going and great fun to shoot with. He's incredibly easy to collaborate with on ideas and the theme for the shoot was one we both loved. The final shots are some of my favourite to date, I had so much fun and can't wait for the next one!

Highly recommend! Mike and I finally got to collaborate and it was certainly worth the wait! The pre shoot communication was very smooth, we planned for a location shoot but the weather was too gloomy ☁️🌡️, so we ended up shooting at my place with my clothes and props, in 3 hours we had lots of nice conversation about many things, Mike is very knowledgeable, kind, easy going and most importantly professional, was able to direct poses and good with lighting. Would highly recommend to anyone! Thank you 😊
