Another wonderful week with Rachelle on one of her organised trips. She had some superb themed ideas and the flexibility to include some of our ideas and others on the trip. Her looks and make-up skills are exquisite and she can bring so many expressions into play she is a delight to work with. Looking forward to working with her again and highly reccomended.

Where to begin?! I modelled alongside Rachelle as part of her recent Summers Abroad trip to France and weeks later i'm still buzzing from all the creativity and fun!

We have both been told for a long time that we look alike and I've modelled with Rachelle on several occasional now but this most recent trip was way above and beyond in every respect! Posing alongside her is always such an inspiration whilst simultaneously being slightly creepy due to just how in sync we are at times - combine that with our similar looks and all the photographers on the trip came away with some seriously stunning images, some which became difficult for even me and Rachelle to tell who was who!

Rachelle put so much effort into each theme she created as well as in the un-themed shoots. She transformed not only into an incredible model but also stylist, set designer, MUA, hair stylist and more! Rachelle has impeccable taste and everything was considered from props, background and well scouted locations to the finer details such as jewellery and accessories to really bring each and every outfit to life!

Not only is Rachelle a great model, she is also very experienced which means she understands lighting, composition and how/where to get the perfect shots! Shooting abroad in hot/bright sun can be challenging but Rachelle was always on the lookout for the perfect spot with great lighting to transform each set from something good to something amazing!

I am also in awe of her capabilities to transform her look from one set to the next! This trip included: Athletic art nudes, a french renaissance style, sexy glamour, beauty shots, creative makeup/editorial looks, boudoir, bohemian styles, vintage demure looks, edgy fashion, fine art nude, glamour nude and many more styles all of which Rachelle executed to perfection with incredible precision!

I think Rachelle's work speaks for it's self through her images but I honestly can't recommend her enough and i'm so excited to be doing two more trips with her this year and next!

I've worked with Rachelle a number of times now and most recently spent 3 glorious days with her on her latest Summers Abroad trip to Southern France. A lot of time and effort had obviously gone into planning the trip: an amazing villa, stunning locations and beautifully themed shoots made this a productive but very sociable trip......and of course Rachelle delivered fabulous images, as always. Working with Rachelle has always been a joy and this trip was no exception. Well done Mr & Mrs Summers for helping to create great memories.

I have worked with Rachelle a number of times now and each time we increase our rapport and this shows in the images we are able to produce. She is very easy to shoot with and adapts her way of working according to the style of the photographer.

I spent a week with Rachelle on her recent Summers Abroad holiday, with six days of shooting. She has an endless supply of ideas and themes and many of them push me outside of my comfort zone.

I can highly recommend Rachelle for both novice photographers and those with much more experience.

Apart from the workshop that I did with Rachelle last night with my tutor hat on, I think this was my third shoot with Rachelle.

Her beautiful, chiselled features, her perfect body, and her outstanding posing ability work together to make any shoot with her a joy: if you don't get amazing results that delight you, golf may be calling as your next hobby...

A delightful personality, and always more clothes than you can shake a wardrobe at - though we stuck to art nude.

And - she'd rented an amazing apartment for her Birmingham tour: providing spectacular, different backgrounds.

Simply, in the top league. And at the top of it, too!

It my my great fortune to have 2 shoots with Rachelle, last week. Firstly on the 19th at Barlow studio, with the lovely Scarlet Rose, we covered an old theme I had done with Rachelle, previously. The rustic set at Barlow, made a perfect back drop for a vintage wash day blues shoot. Rachelle was fantastic as usual, and we produced many, beautiful images.

Later that week, we has another shoot in a Birmingham apartment,allegedly based in an old MI5 Building. It certainly looked the part. We just had to do a Bond girl theme. Again Rachelle was a delight to work with.

100 % recommended. We are already organising the next shoot.

This was my third shoot with Rachelle and once again I was not disappointed. A great location chosen by Rachelle, combined with Rachelles awesome talent ensured that we got some great images.

Thanks Rachelle.

Highly recommended.

Another great shoot with Rachelle yesterday. The location was a fabulous apartment that she had rented in Birmingham, which proved to be a very photogenic place to shoot.

As far as Rachelle goes, there is not much that I can really add to her impressive list of references, other than to say that she was on top form again, great looks, great outfits and an inexhaustible range of poses.

All in all, a fun-filled shoot that has given me a card full of great images.

Thanks again Rachelle, you're a star.

Met Rachelle for the first time at a JD Tuition workshop at Click away studio. She arrived with an impressive amount of outfits and, after a quick cup of tea, was ready to start.

She was an absolute delight to work with. Bright bubbly and enthusiastic throughout the workshop. Friendly and easygoing with a lovely sense of humour.

Rachelle is an amazing model, stunning looks and an incredible figure. She poses effortlessly, with or without direction, and works with you to achieve the results you want.

The three hours past far to quickly but we all left very happy with some wonderful images.

A thoroughly enjoyable experience and I hope to work with Rachelle again soon. Absolute 100% recommendation.

Thank you Rachelle.

I met Rachelle for the first time at a JD tuition event held at Click Away studio. She is a veritable Rolls Royce of a model whose experience shows in the way she moves, poses and generally presents herself. She also comes across as a most pleasant young woman with a nice sense of humour. Highly recommended of course!

I've worked with Rachelle as a photographer more than once in the past, and I was delighted to be able to book her for a workshop this year. I was quietly confident that she'd make a great success of the evening.

And I was right: Rachelle was as marvellous as always, and our clients left happy, with some beautiful images.

Next year, then, for another workshop? Very highly recommended.

A 3hr booking on Rachelle’s tour through the Midlands gave me the opportunity to work once more with this exceptional model, this time in her hotel apartment. Great company, great modelling, immaculate appearance (this comes as standard with Rachelle) and a terrific attitude all combine to produce another excellent booking. I love the images we’ve produced from a variety of locations within the apartment, all taken by natural light. Thanks once again Rachelle, here’s to the next visit. Recommended like crazy.

I have shot with Rachelle many times over several years and enjoy our shoots . This last one was at a stunning apartment in Birmingham with many interesting areas.

She always knows the silly odd stuff I like to do and has infinite patience - needed this time - as my camera suddenly started playing up, just for a short while.

Rachelle is totally organised. Her communications and general efficiency are a lesson to other models and I am afraid I do suggest others might copy her.

Now it is off to FRance in June to shoot with her again - can't wait.

Totally recommended.

worked with the beautiful Rachelle Summers on her duo model day with Scarlot Rose at Barlow Studio. Modelled to perfection. Very Highly Recommended.

Another shoot with one of the best of the circuit! I’ve shot with Rachelle many times, and never been disappointed. She is a complete and utter joy to work with and never fails to deliver great shots in between hysterical laughter and all round fun!

Seriously; a fantastic professional and lovely person. Totally recommended by me!

Thanks for a great shoot, Rachelle. Can’t wait to work with you again! [e.g. tomorrow – Ed.]

Another shoot with Rachelle and as always she looked fantastic with some lovely outfits and great poses. This time it was a joint shoot with Scarlot and these two ladies together provided a shoot to be remembered. Hopeful of getting these two together again this year if my old age will stand it! Together or one their own they are a tough act to follow.

I just had two duo studio days with Rachelle and am still buzzing from a wonderful few days! Rachelle is effortless to work with, she is an absolute professional transforming into any style required. She's amazing with makeup, styling, posing, everything and it's not only a pleasure to work alongside her but a damn good laugh too! We spent most of the two days rolling around laughing, dancing and ensuring everyone involved got the shots they wanted and had a great time doing so!

Rachelle also stayed with me during her trip and was an excellent house guest. I am SO excited for all the upcoming trips we have together this year and next, if you haven't yet seen them SummersAbroad has some absolutely epic trips lined up and I feel i've only seen the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the amazing lengths she has gone to for organising these!

I think the thousands of positive references and her work speaks for themselves but if you haven't shot with Rachelle yet you really are missing out!!

This was my second time working with Rachelle, it was an 18 month gap and I forgot how amazing she is to work with. Super professional but really good fun to be around, really makes a point to build a rapport and that makes the time go in quickly.

We managed to get some stunning images and she helped nail the concepts I was trying to achieve.

Highly recommended and I won't be waiting 18 months to work with her again.

Sooooo easy to work with. Just turn up with some vague ideas and a camera and you'll end up with some beautiful images.

Truly the business class of models :)

Another fantastic shoot with Rachelle. Such a nice person and super talented. Did I mention she is absolutely gorgeous and gives the photographer so many great opportunities. We did a variety of styles during the shoot and Rachelle came prepared with outfits and ideas. Superb makeup and can’t rate her highly enough. Very relaxed shoot and enjoyable from start to finish. Only downside is Rachelle isn’t coming back to Aberdeen until next year. I may have to undergo counselling.

Come back soon Rachelle. 🙂❤️
