I had my umpteenth shoot with Rachelle at her day at Millwood Sudio. I love working with her and she always manages to get some lovely results, even when my ideas are hopeless. And the four hours were excellent. I am away at the moment for Christmas but I can't wait to get on with editing the results.

Rachelle is totally professional and a brilliant mode and I recommend her to a lll photographers

The third time I have worked with Rachelle this year so what can I say that I haven't already said: Well came very close to cancelling this shoot. The shoot had been arranged for several months as Rachelle is so popular then two weeks before the shoot a very close friend of mine died and the funeral was arranged for a couple of days before the shoot. For this reason I had not given the shoot a second thought or prepared in any way. Decided to go ahead as I needed the pick me up. Turned up and had no ideas whatsoever - no matter Rachelle suggested a few things - I've got this outfit and it will go great with this back ground - 3 outfits & 3 back grounds later that was our 2 hour shoot over. In between all this I can now add that she is a fantastic councillor - my close friend was only 52 and got 31 days notice from diagnosis of a brain tumour to being taken away from us. Rachelle you are a star you listened when you needed to and said all the right things when needed. Just editing the photos and in between all the therapy we took some awesome images which to be honest all I did was point and click for. I hope no one else has to go ahead with a shoot under similar circumstances and always recommend other photographers do put some thought into what they want to get out of their time but Rachelle does have some fantastic ideas if needed.

Thank you Rachelle you were fantastic as usual.

Rachelle is a charming, creative and professional model. Like all great models Rachelle will put in the energy and ideas to a shoot, to make it a fabulous team effort.

I booked 2 hours with Artemis Fauna and Rachelle Summers based on 3 things. The first being that I had worked with Rachelle previously and had a fantastic shoot. It had been one of my early studio shoots and Rachelle was a dream to work with. The second being that I have heard so many great things about Artemis, I just knew I would learn so much working with her. The third was the location. I could tell from previous images on her site that the house offered some amazing sets.

So, I turned up nervous ahead of my 2 girl shoot, but the pre shoot communication had been great so I was comfortable with expectations. Following a warm welcome, a quick chat and a cuppa, we had a look around and decided that we would start with my theme ideas first. Both ladies threw themselves into it and really helped me to achieve some amazing shots. Rachelle played her rebellious part brilliantly and needed no guidance at all. Once these were completed I was in their hands and I was provided with some great advice from Artemis, as well as some stunning art nude poses that have created some stunning images.

We finished with some glamour/boudoir images which was a great way to end my time with them. The 2 hours flew by and I left feeling as though I was saying goodbye to 2 friends.

I have been fortunate to work with some great models in what has only been a short time so far, but Rachelle is one of the best. A great attitude, willing to work hard to achieve the right shot, but also happy to laugh when it does not quite work.

I learned so much from the shoot, as well as getting some great images. All while having a great time with 2 beautiful ladies.

Thank you so much. Can't wait to see you again in the near future. Xx

What a finale to 2015.! Recent fantastic duo shoot with Rachelle and Artemis. This really was the icing on the cake to what has been a great year. Rachelle was extremely well organised with flawless hair, make up and nails and bought a wide selection of lingerie and accessories to the shoot. It's not an exaggeration to say she captured the mood and theme of the shoot from the first frame. Lots of subtle changes in poses ensured we got lots of variety though a long shoot. Great team work, stunning results from a highly accomplished model. I hope to work again with Rachelle in 2016. Thank you Rachelle.

Yet another awesome shoot with Rachelle - this time as part of a duo day with Artemis Fauna. I've always enjoyed working with Rachelle, because she's so easy-going and prepared to give daft ideas of mine a go. We had some cheesy smiles under the Christmas tree and then some serious expressions standing on a bench in the cold (in wellies!) - not something I think Rachelle expected to be doing that weekend :).

Can't recommend Rachelle highly enough to other photographers - she's friendly, looks great in any outfit, poses impeccably and has an astonishing array of expressions for portraits. Book her if you get the chance!

I have been following and admiring Rachelle for quite a while. Every time she was posted on the port, I was really wandering how and when I can shoot with this amazing look, I was thrilled when she was booked to work at Gabriel Nita's studio in Stratford.

Notwithstanding that there were crossed wires as to the exact theme of the shoot, this highly professional lady delivered a truly fabulous performance.

I often get carried away as to how much I enjoy a shoot, but this experience has to be ranked towards the very top so far, and I suspect will remain there.

Rachelle, during the hour we shot, worked through four truly amazing sets, very much displaying her versatility. From full glamour to great moody art nude, she went from pose to pose with consummate professionalism.

By the time we wrapped up I came away extatic that I had finally had the opportunity and pleasure of working with this fabulous lady . She is highly recommended and a must for any serious portfolio.

If you haven't worked with Rachelle you really must!

We had our third shoot together last week and it was brilliant. We battled the winds for a bit before heading back to the warmth of my home studio where we covered as many ideas as we could in the time we had. Everything from stock imagery to nudes to crazy animations.

Although full of cold Rachelle was a star throughout the day and is a true professional. Organized, full of inspiration, creative, she totally got my crazy concepts and posed with ease and graceful beauty. She's an absolute pleasure to work with. I have come away from the day with so many shots I want to work on and I am looking forward to seeing the final results. I think I'll be busy for a few weeks!

Put simply, Rachelle is an awesome model and I'm already looking forward to working with her again in the future.

In the past year I have been fortunate to work with several top models and Rachelle is very definitely one of these. Her communication skills and pre-shoot comms are impeccable, being one of the best organised models I have worked with. I had booked her for half a day on her way home from her recent tour and we met in Grantham to work at GMPix. Her personality from the first meeting shone through, and she proved to be a chatty, intelligent, interesting and bubbly model throughout the shoot.

She is obviously very beautiful and I had booked her just for portraits based on the work of others. I wasn't disappointed as she looks fabulous and has excellent modelling skills.

Rachelle of course is perfect for professional work but she is also the ideal model for those just starting model photography. Her combination of a lovely looks, nature and skills means the beginner can concentrate on the technical side of learning and rely on Rachelle to deliver in front of the camera.

5 Star Model - Highly recommended.

See all those references below this one ? And all the ones up there above this one (if you are reading this in a few days time) ? Yep, well even combined they don't sum up how great it is to work with Rachelle. I was warned that the biggest problem with working with this amazing model is that you will end up with far too many keepers, and I have to say it is completely true - so I pass that warning on to you. Book this model only if you want to come away with a cameraful of incredible shots :-)

Not only that, but she is the nicest, most friendly and easy to work with person you could wish for. As a relative newbie I was a bit nervous working with such an experienced model with such a great portfolio, but Rachelle put me totally at ease and the shoot was an absolute dream.

Wow - I eventually got to work with the gorgeous and talented Rachelle Summers - we'd tried to arrange shoots together a number of times before but the shooting gods were against us .... until recently! what an amazing model and what an amazing shoot!! it was only 4 hours but we got some seriously awesome stuff done in the time.

I'd wanted to work with Rachelle for some time tbh - just one look at her beautiful port and you'll see why.

on the day of the shoot everything just seemed to click. she had all the outfits we discussed in her excellent pre-comms and we flew threw set after set! Rachelle has such a great manner about her and boy can she pose!!!!! wow!!! what a pose machine!!! :) :)

she even laughed a few times at my stupid jokes - so she can't be that bad! ;)

would I recommend her? hell yes!!!!!

thanks so very much for an amazing shoot Rachelle - looking forward to shooting again if our schedules align! :)

Rachelle is a true super star!

If you have read her previous glowing references then you'll be left in no doubt that Rachelle can pose with ease, takes direction well, is full of creative ideas and obviously looks amazing. Above all of these qualities she is a genuinely kind and decent person.

A few days ago I worked with Rachelle for the second time. Our afternoon shoot was at my home and for reasons far too boring to go into here, I had just had the morning from Hell. I had convinced myself that the day was going to be a total right off but when Rachelle arrived she immediately calmed the troubled waters and we went on to create some fabulous images together.

Rachelle comes highly recommended from me. Thanks for a fun and creative afternoon and I look forward to working with you again soon.

Superb shoot today with Rachelle at Windmill Art Studio.

We used the natural light studio mainly and got some great art nude results with a very high "keep" rate, owing to Rachelle's great ability as a model.

Shooting with Rachelle is a joy - she knows exactly how to position herself and has a great awareness of how her poses look from the point of view of the camera. She is also full of ideas and gives great feedback when reviewing the images.

Rachelle is also a very nice person - friendly, easy to get on with, down to earth, and willing to go "the extra mile" to get a good image.

Thank you Rachelle for a wonderful shoot.

So Rachelle found herself in the southern outpost of suffolk yet again and stayed over as she has done in the past. My camera was suffering from a period of under-usage and I wasn't sure where my mojo had gone. After hosting a shoot with another photographer we got down to shooting.

Despite being her third shoot of the day with a couple of hours travelling under her belt Rachelle is simply dynamite in front of the camera. This is our third shoot and she brings something new to table each time. Its always a pleasure to have her stay shame she is not closer/here more often

Simply a great model and all round nice person :-)

Great shoot with Rachelle during her trip to East Anglia. We covered a range of styles during our shoot and Rachelle showed her great versatility producing many wonderful creative poses. A complete professional she is easy to work with and great company. A top model, who, needless to say, is highly recommended.

SWPortraits

Wow, had the most amazing shoot with Rachelle!! Posing is effortless and even took on poses I wanted before I could say anything! Great conversation and brilliant results. I had great expectations from this shoot but everything was far better than I could've imagined. If Rachelle is not in your portfolio then you need to book her as soon as possible...you will not regret it!

Rachelle, thank you for a superb and memorable time - you are an extraordinary woman. In the words of Vera Lynn (almost)... "We'll shoot again, don't know where, don't know when. But I know we'll shoot again some sunny day..." :)

David Scott

Just could not resist the chance to shoot Rachelle again, she is just fantastic to work with and once have some great images. She is so professional yet so easy to get on with as well as being willing to try anything and offer advice. If you have not had the chance to shoot with her then i suggest you get her booked, you will not be disappointed.

Hope to fix up something soon Rachelle, thanks again David :-)

Terry Turner

Had a shoot at my home with Rachelle today. She was brilliant, pretty, superb figure and a great sense of humour, never ran out of poses, nothing was too much trouble for her,, the shoot was really enjoyable, lots of laughs, cups of tea and goodies, time flew by. I would recommend her to anyone.

Thanks Rachelle.

Rachelle had come to stay for a few days so we just had to shoot in my new studio (converted from my double garage). Rachelle is such a great model, so much fun and a really good friend - I really must get to shoot with her more often!!

Highly recommended!
