Finally got to shoot with Steve at looooong last.I have waited ages to shoot with him a boy was it worth it. Travelled to Weymouth to the Art Asylum ,this place is just amazing with everything in there that you could possibly want for a shoot,big old windows,huge airy rooms and various other scenes and sets all laid out for different themes... just wished we had longer.Steve and I had chatted about what we were going to do for our shoot and he was well prepared with lights etc. We got stuck in and every few shots Steve was very kind showing me the shots.I found Steve very professional and all round nice guy. We had a laugh and chat in between sets which was nice and he even made hubby a cuppa haha. I wasn't even home when I had 3 edited images sent to me. I`m so please we made the 2 1/2 hour journey for this shoot. And we even got to see a bit of Weymouth which was stunning. I can honestly say if you get to shoot with Steve you will not be disappointed,very highly recommend.See you again soon Steve :)X

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Steve for the third time at another Art Asylum group shoot. I always enjoy working with Steve because he's so easy to get on with and produces some fantastic images. Post shoot comms were great and he had some great ideas (even though I was put in a corner on more than one occasion! Haha!!) Thank you for making my first group shoot back an enjoyable one!

Really looking forward to working with you again!

I work with Steve regularly so we have built up a great working relationship and understanding of what works for both of us. We decided on a genre but I added a little twist which Steve used to his advantage in the vats room. He is a great guy, photographer and friend. Steve turns some images around very quickly and they are always of a really high quality.....I love working with Steve and will continue to do so.

South House Retreat

Wow, fantastic guy , did some great shots at South House. He has been here a few times now and is always very welcome!

Another great shoot down the hatch, this time at South House Retreat. We got some amazing images and can't wait to see the final edits. Can't think of anything I haven't said before about working with Steve...always a pleasure and well looked after, pre shoot comms were faultless and we both knew what we were trying to achieve out of the shoot but as always we went off on tangents with great results.

Steve and I worked together as part of a group shoot at Art Asylum arranged by Miss Divine.

Steve's style is one that I love, as in sassy/classy, fully fashioned, stockings and hosiery to the hilt, shoots.

His direction was great and comms were excellent pre and during shoot.

I certainly want to work with this man again as we had a great session that we wished could have lasted longer.

Group shoots are a great way of "sampling" the alternative styles of photographers and I am so pleased that I have met Steve through this.

Cant wait for the next opportunity, but hopefully on a 1-2-1 basis, as loving the images thus far

Great to meet you Steve

I now fund myself shooting regularly with steve and we where working on a group shoot at the art asylum this time. As akways steve is very knowledgeable and always happy to go with my ideas but always nails it. I can honestly say I have never been unhappy with an image I recieve from steve and don't miss an oppertunity to work with him if you get the chance...thanks again steve.

I had my first shoot with Steve recently at a group shoot in Weymouth! Enjoyed myself thoroughly!

Great communication pre,post and during shoot!

Steve was very laid back and knew what he wanted to achieve from the shoot ,while equally taking consideration in what I wanted to achieve.

Made some great images with Steve.

Hope to work with him again!

Highly recommended!!

I had the pleasure of working with Steve again at the Art Asylum group shoot. We've worked together several times before and I think we really "get" each others style. We work well together & I am always over the moon with his finished photos. He is great at putting me at ease as well as suggesting suitable poses & ideas before and during the shoot. The pin-up style shots we have shot together are stunning. I highly recommend Steve & I look forward to working with him again in the near future.

Worked with Steve at the Art Asylum group shoot on Saturday. This was the first time I'd met him and we seemed to gel instantly. I felt very relaxed in Steve's company as he's very professional and easy to get along with. Pre comms had been excellent so we knew what we were working on beforehand and were able to achieve great results. Steve is a great photographer, his work very high quality and I'd welcome the opportunity to work with him again.

Steve and I had been hoping for a while to shoot at a location worthy of some sumptuous Boudoir scenes, fortunately in the nick of time before settling for studio sets, we found out that the studland weekender was being organised again so we grabbed our places. Steve rose to the challenge of all the new rooms to shoot in and the challenges each one brought, looked like he was really enjoying his time there. He waited patiently for me to change between sets and ensured we had enought coffee breaks. We were also trying to get some shots for a designer who had made an outfit I wore on the day, so far she is extremely happy with the images...best ones she has I think :)

Thanks again Steve

Had the absolute pleasure of working with Steve on a recent group shoot. A photographer had to drop out so Steve very kindly stepped in to save the day.

Steve was immediate in his communication both prior and post shoot. Considering just how little time he had he turned up fully on form and fully prepared.

Steve was creative, interesting, polite throughout and produced really high quality images with everyone in the shoot. He has an amazing sense of humour which immediately put me at ease (and rid the anxiety I often feel doing shoots) and made our time together really relxed and fun.

I would highly recommend working alongside Steve, he maybe fun and humorous but he also takes his work very seriously and I'm really happy with the wonderful snaps that he's produced.

Can't wait for another shoot. Thanks Steve :-)

This was my first shoot with Steve and only my second ever group shoot. He was brilliant at putting me at ease, clear in his direction and chatted with me throughout. I love his style of photography and am really pleased with the images he has produced. He has helped me to develop in confidence and I would definitely take up the opportunity to work with him again. Thank you Steve :)

Had the pleasure of working with Steve today in Weymouth from start to finsh made me feel confrontable and relaxed he picked me up from the location and took me back we knew what we was both after and defo will not be the last shoot can't wait for are next shoot the outcome are awsome of what I've seen :)we had loads of fun and laughing :)

Highly recommended by me

Awesome shoot with Steve again, working together on a group shoot at art asylum this time focusing on Cosplay and alternative styles. Steve was happy for me to suggest ideas...so I wanted to be a little bit out of the norm and do some freaky fun things. I decided to try and fit in two different styles which consisted of major outfit changes and make up changes too in to a very short time...demon dolly and day of the dead. As always steve waited patiently, I felt no pressure whatsoever. He was very complimentary and his lighting set ups were perfect for the mean and moody styles we were trying to recreate. Back of the camera shots were just as I'd hoped for and his edited ones even better. When you book a shoot with steve you won't be disappointed, he communicates well so you both know what to expect, takes ideas on board, really thinks about the setting and lighting before the shoot...and he's a genuinely lovely guy that's very relaxed and will thoroughly look after you. Thanks for a great shoot

This is my second time shooting with steve when he came to my.home, we had more time this time so was hoping for more variety. He is a great guy, very easy to get on with and completely relaxed in what he does, he is also bloody good and not afraid to clamber over stuff to get a good shot. I love far to many of his images to scale them down for editing, again something he knows lots about and does anyone on his screen justice. Steve comes highly recommended by me and hoping to get togther again with him when we are both free.

I've lost count now how many times I've shot with Steve now. I'm thrilled he chooses me again and again because its always a fantastic shoot. First and foremost Steve is just really relaxed and such a friendly guy to spend time with the hours always whizz away. Today as always my comfort is key, on location at a derelict building he's urging me to be careful and helping me totter over broken glass in my stilettos! I'm sat in heather in my lingerie when it begins to rain but we push on with the shoot. Steve ensured I had dried off and warmed up with a real meal before we continued to lingerie at an indoor location. I was given opportunity to look over the pics during lunch which took my breath away. The edits are even better. cant recommend Steve Highly enough. Always a pleasure.

Missy D

I'm starting to lose count how many times I've worked with Steve now, but this was our very first location shoot. I'd sourced a location, it had potential but involved some walking to get to various parts that were decent enough to shoot in. That didn't phaze Steve at all and by the time we'd done we had covered quite a few kms. We'd discussed ideas beforehand and as usual we were on the same wavelength with the planning...steve is always happy for me to give input too. Just a shame we were fighting a losing battle against the light toward the end as we weren't able to get some shots we had planned...just means we will have to try again.

Always happy to recommend RAWing waves

I had my second shoot with Steve at another Art Asylum group shoot. Again, we were the first to shoot together and we still worked really well. Pre shoot comms were super and we had a lot of ideas. He was very considerate given my stage of pregnancy and I think we captured some fantastic shots. We are already discussing ideas for our next shoot!

I still highly recommend working with Steve!
