Andrew works with me as a mentor and a photographer. He has been absolutely fabulous to work with. He has helped me learn about being a model and helped to develop my skills. His experience is extensive and that shows in the way he supports you in the studio and outside on a location shoot. He always shoots fantastic images in variety of styles. I love working with him, and would recommend him highly.

I shot at Andrew's studio with another photographer, so meeting and shooting with Andrew was a real bonus and an experience I hope will be repeated. Utterly professional and a great communicator, we shot a number of looks I had prepared and some that Andrew introduced. I had a thoroughly enjoyable shoot and if you get the opportunity to shoot with him, grab it with both hands.

Andrew guided myself on my first studio shoot with the very lovely Alison M today. I could not have done this without his guidance and encouragement. His communication before the shoot was fantastic. He is welcoming and always on hand with advice. He is great with models and very friendly and supportive. I wouldn’t hesitate on recommending. Thank you so much and I hope we get to collaborate again !

Today I had the opportunity to work with Andrew and I’m very happy I did. He was very friendly and welcoming and made me feel very confident on the shoot. He was there to help me when I needed some advice, and was able to guide me along the modelling steps into the industry.

The photos that we managed to create were amazing and he for sure knows how to work behind the camera.

Thankyou so much for your time today Andrew and I look forward to working with you again in the future :)

I met Andrew at The Fashion Event London! I didn't know anyone there but Andrew came straight up and welcomed me, introducing me to himself and his wife! Which was really nice.

Andrew was very friendly and I enjoyed chatting with him! Andrew has sent me the photos he took of myself very fast which is very much appreciated! The photos are very good and I can't wait to share them!

Thanks Andrew,

hopefully see you soon :)

I had the honor to do a photoshoot with Andrew in his new studio in Stratford upon Avon! Love the atmosphere and he kept the shoot friendly, fun and very down to earth. Did multiple themes and I’m very happy with the pictures as well as the knowledge he provides!

I had my third shoot with Andrew in his fantastic studio, producing art nude photographs. He really has helped me a lot with modeling experiences and lifestyle. Mostly, he really takes care of his models and is outstanding as a person. I cannot wait to do another photoshoot with him.

I had my second shot with Andrew last week and it was a BIG BIG pleasure! The photoshoot was the most unique I have ever had! Andrew and I discussed doing a shoot in which my boyfriend was involved as well.

We did mafia roles in comedy action and also romantic couple photographs, which was A LOT OF FUN!!! Andrew was also happy to take pictures of me and of my boyfriend in solo mode too. My boyfriend never did a modeling shot before but Andrew gave me inspiration and now he is willing to start a new career as a male model.

Overall, Andrew was extremely professional and a genius as the pictures ended up being way better than I imagined. We discussed future events and I cannot wait to work with him again.

Thank you so much, Andrew!

Venice it is always a great experience, going to Venice with Andrew for a shoot is a dream come true.

Pre shoot communication has been perfect. The goal of the trip was set and clear, enjoy Venice, have a nice holidays and shoot pictures.

The trip and shoot was perfectly organised, Andrew knows Venice and plans every shoot carefully, he is able to find nice placements and knows how to avoid the crowds even in august

Andrew is an outstanding professional photographer, he has got a 6th sense for framing and finding the best background for the pictures.

It has been a great pleasure, always enjoyable to model for Andrew.

I've been more or less working with Andrew for six years (with a 4 year break🤣) but we got to shoot together today before I retire. He is an excellent photographer, great with angles, lighting and backdrops and if he wanted to, he can give great direction, although he allows me to do whatever poses I want. He is always very friendly and super easy to talk to. He took my ideas and allowed me to direct the shoot, which i loved! The photos look excellent on the back of the camera and I cant wait to see them!

Would definitely recommend working with andrew

Andrew was great, pre communication was brilliant and he was very patient while I organised the group being photographed. On the day of the shoot, he made everyone feel very welcome and relaxed at the studio and most importantly, took some really beautiful shots of the group and individuals for the project.

Definitely recommend working with Andrew!

Andrew answered my casting call about finding a photographer for my final major project shoot with 3 models styled as Tudor’s higher class. Andrew’s pre and post communication was/is amazing and professional. Andrew worked hard to bring to life the exact photos I wanted for my project whilst adding his own creative flair. It was a pleasure to work with him on my project. Definitely recommend!!!

I had my first shoot with Andrew this February and what I have to say is that he is a magnificent photographer and mentor!!! He was extremely professional and he knew EXACTLY what he was doing. He was very understanding and taught me a lot of self wisdom and self-love. We ended up making some fantastic photos together and I truly recommend him. I am looking forward to my second shoot with him this September.

I had a shoot with Andrew last Saturday 13th November, it was an amazing shoot with a professional and passionate photographer. It was a full experience that i would like to describe stepwise.

1. Pre shoot communication; Excellent communication and preparation of the shoot on the days before. On arrival to the studio Andrew was welcoming, coffee tea and drinks ready for the model. Good and thorough conversation to plan the day. Andrew is professional and clear. He put me in charge of the shoot in terms of outfits and respected my limits. We had a clear agreement on the collaboration terms on how many and what quality photos i may expect.

2. Shoot. The studio was ready, lights in position, backdrop ready, welcoming and warm environment. Andrew allowed me to set the pace, inviting me to try different poses and teaching different techniques to achieve an excellent result. His long experience made me feel at ease and confident making every picture special. He stopped over the shoot to make sure i was warm and comfortable. On every change of dress we had a view on the pictures taken up to that point, I could feel that Andrew an myself were in clear harmony making the full day an amazing experience.

3. After the shoot. Nice chat and debrief, he has sent me the full lot of pictures in a quality appropriate for media use in a size good enough to be sent by internet but still at high quality, he has offered me to choose the pictures i would like to be photoshop.

Overall amazing day, great learning experience for me, fun and really interesting. Andrew shows passion and love for photography. I am really thankful for the experience.

Thank you very much for a beautiful day.

Lauret.

Had my first shoot with Andrew yesterday. He’s a lovely easygoing guy who knows pretty much everything to do with photography! The images speak for themselves really.

The shoot went excellent and we got a variety of different photos which was what I wanted to do and had planned to do so I was really happy about that

The house, studio and land to it was absolutely beautiful. It was also kept immaculate which made the photos look really luxurious, especially outside.

The photos were all sent over to me within around 2hours which was fabulous as I could browse through them pretty much straight away

The images look absolutely fantastic, now is to choose the ones I like and await the final result

One more thing, Andrew showed me some examples of his editing skills and they are top notch changing colours of chairs etc. Brilliant!

Look forward to our next shoot
