I had my 2nd shoot with Steve at the Art Asylum group shoot.

We chatted before the shoot with our ideas for the area we were shooting in,and steve was well prepared and organised. He is such a gentleman and made sure i was comfortable with everything. I highly recommend Steve and looking forward to shooting with him again soon. The images i've received are fantastic, just what we were both after.

Thank you Steve for a great shoot again :-)

I met Steve for the first time yesterday and clicked with him straight away, he is really easy going and great to shoot with. We only had an hour but he knows exactly what he wants to achieve and got some really cracking images, I'm hoping to work with Steve again in the near future and he comes highly recommended........once you get him off the golf course 😂

Today was a real step forward for me working with Steve on some more emotive boudoir photography, something I've not really explored before. We had discussed ideas before hand and as always he came armed with image inspiration. After my initial nerves and with constant positive support I was able to relax into character and the shots are some that I am most proud of. Steve is one of those photographers that you really look forward to working with and I'm thrilled we are already talking about future ideas.

Another amazing shoot with Steve! this time we were on location in the woods for a gothic inspired shoot. The creativity with the lighting took my breath away. We have a real mix of shots from some 'snow white inspired' beauty shots right through to the wicked witch. thrilled to be joined by wild horses who just wandered into shot. Steve just kept on shooting while I tried to tempt them into shot. results = OUTSTANDING! always a pleasure and the next shoot arranged already!

I've got a few shoots in the bag now with Steve and each time is just getting better and better. We are definitely on the same wavelength and that just makes us challenge ourselves further. This shoot was a couples shoot and included a new male model on the scene. Steve was able to meet us for discussion in person and comms over the Internet were faultless. Ideas bounced back and forth and went off on quite the tangent, this didn't faze Steve, he took it all in his stride and embraced the challenge and produced some of his best work yet. Always a pleasure working with Steve and already looking forward to next time

Had a fabulous shoot with Steve at the Art Asylum on saturday. Fantastic fun guy who had some great ideas which worked so well in the natural light we were lucky enough to have. Awesome guy who puts you totally at ease, so easy to talk to and loved the creativity that flowed. Highly recommend Steve and cant wait for another chance to work with him :-)

I had the pleasure of working with the lovely Steve at Art Asylum.

Although I was the last model of the day for Steve he was still full of energy and ideas this along with his good sense of humour the momentum and creativity flowed through our shoot to which we created some amazing images! He is truly wonderful to work with.

Before meeting the communication was fantastic and he is great and open to ideas. Upon meeting I found him professional and great with direction which put me at ease.

I cannot recommend him enough and I certainly cannot wait to work with him again :)

Til next time Steve... :)

I had my first shoot with Steve on Saturday at Art Asylum at the weekend. The pre shoot comms were super. Steve is very friendly and very easy to work with. We clicked straight away and I think we worked really well together. I'd definitely recommend working with Steve if you get the chance!

Hopefully see you soon!

What can I say?! Steve is just awesome! Having coaxed out my confidence on our first shoot he's become the back bone of my current portfolio. Always happy to try something new we went totally different this time with an edgy rock chic look and outrageous make up. Ever the gentleman he complimented throughout and the time flew by as we both laughed and enjoyed creating amazing images. Steve is never put off by any challenge and his knowledge with lighting and constant striving for each image to be better than the last is inspirational. An all round lovely guy to spend time with, it never feels like work and I can't wait to shoot with him again soon.

Had my third shoot with Steve earlier this week. Great fun as usual but we did something a little bit different but what interests us both...pin up! So much fun for me to organise outfits and props and Steve researched lighting and editing and images just flowed. We also did a little more latex in our final hour together and have some great shots from that but I have to say the pin up was the highlight of our session for me. Steve was a complete gent, sorted my refreshments for me and made sure everything was alright throughout the shoot. Highly recommend

This was my second shoot with Steve and even better than the first. An absolute gentleman with some amazing ideas for poses and styles. We had talked through some retro pin up ideas before the shoot and on the day the poses just flowed as I felt confident and excited about what I needed to do. As always fantastic attention to detail and some stunning images produced. Already booked our third shoot and can't wait.

This was the first time I'd done a lingerie shoot in studio as well as my first shoot with Steve but I needn't have worried. From the moment I walked in he put me any ease and we had a fantastic session where I felt comfortable and confident. He has a very good knowledge of lighting and scene setting and I'm absolutely thrilled with the beautiful images I got back. Can't wait to do my next shoot with him!

Miss Nikki Lang

I worked with steve on the 9th feb at art alylum in Weymouth. He is a lovely guy to work with and i highly recommend him! He met me outside of the studio to introduce himself! He offered me a hot drink and showed me round the studio before we started the shoot! He was very honest about what he thought of the images we were getting out of the shoot (which were absolutely amazing btw) he was great with the lighting and was open to any suggestions i had! Steve is a lovely guy to work with and if you get the chance you should go for it!

I hope to work with him again soon!

Thank you for the lovely photos:)

Had my first shoot with Steve yesterday at the art asylum in Weymouth and it was a really fun few hours. Steve is friendly, professional and knows how to use lighting to create a beautiful image. Steve was really easy to get on with and was open to my crazy suggestions. I like the images he has already edited and look forward to seeing the rest. I highly recommend steve and hope to work with him again in the future.

Thanks Steve

Today, I had my second shoot with Steve and an absolute pleasure it was too. For sometime, having seen the facilities at Art Asylum, I thought a steampunk styled shoot was perfect and when Steve asked if I had any ideas for future shoot I threw that idea in straight away. It's been a couple of months in the planning, but that has allowed me to prepare my outfits for the day, and today was the day we finally got to create some steampunk images. The location was perfect, the ideas just flowed and the results coming to my inbox are better than I could have planned. Thanks for a great shoot Steve :)

I've known Steve for a while now and have seen his work just keep getting better and better. I FINALLY got round to shooting with him last weekend and I am so glad I did. We worked together on my studio day at Art Asylum and it was a very enjoyable three hours. Pre shoot communications were great, I was able to plan my wardrobe around these and he was very accepting of any ideas I could add. These ideas developed during the shoot too and we came out with some exceptional unplanned shots too. Highly recommend and hope to work with him again

I recently had my second shoot with Steve, and as before it was a huge success! Steve knew the images that he wanted to produce and went above and beyond to ensure we got them.

Steve is an absolute pleased to work with, professional, talented and very easy to get along with :)

I can't wait for us to work again together!

Thank you x

I had my first ever shoot with Steve yesterday and what can I say, it was fantastic!

Steve is a very talented photographer and he made me feel completely at ease throughout our shoot. He was very helpful in giving me advice and direction when needed, and was quick to find new ideas that we could incorporate into our shoot.

Although we did work together for 3 hours, I felt we could have easily have spent longer shooting as time seemed to have flown by!

Thank you ever so much for a wonderful shoot, Steve. I'm looking forward to working with you again x

Steve had perfect pre-shoot communications, was adaptable when we needed to change a few things, and was very good fun to shoot with. He takes flattering photographs and has great ideas, as well as being happy to hear some! Absolutely highly recommended.
