My second shoot with Rob, and it was as enjoyable as the first. This was another group shoot at f/8 Studio in Gloucester and the theme was the movie Casablanca.

Rob had several different outfits and looked spectacular with the lighting which Paul Davies had set up. He is very easy to get on with, happy to take directiona and also pose without direction. I have no hesitation in recommending Rob, he is a consummate professional.

Another amazing shoot with Rob. He is such a professional model abd always comes equipped with enough outfits and accessories to keep everyone happy.

This shoot was 'Morpheus' and Rob put himself in so many positions it made my knees hurt just watching him!

Photos hardly needed any editing afterwards and I can't wait until the next session.

Highly recommended

WOW WOW WOW. This man is quite simply awesome in every way..!!

This was my first meeting with Rob at an evening group shoot at Fareham Studio..

I had seen images of his previous work, I had read the glowing references, but when this most incredible man is standing in front of you you are quite simply blown away by his unique and outstanding ability to pull off the most amazing looks, poses, whatever you like to call them, never have I seen skills like this, every single image is a winner.

Rob brings the most incredible props which you can see in all of his images and oh boy does he know how to use them..!!

I almost cancelled on this shoot thinking it was not for me, this would have been one of big mistakes on my photographic journey..

I do not think that Rob has an equal and probably never will..

I will end with this..

Rob, you are an amazing man, model, and such lovely lovely person to be around, I thank you for giving me the opportunity to work with you.. until next time, take care..!!

I first met Rob on a shoot at Fareham Studio last year. I had been aware of Rob's work for quite sometime so was looking forward to meeting and working with him. We hit it off right away and had a fabulous shoot going through many sets including outside.

So I was really pleased when invited on a group shoot with Rob once again on something of a comeback tour for him. Rob is one of the nicest people you could meet. He is very warm, an absolute joy, fun, and very professional. He is always immaculately turned out, well prepared with both clothing and props, poses with ease and always open to trying new things.

We had yet another great shoot together and it was so good to see him once again. We came away with another great set of images so thank you Rob. I am so pleased that we have become friends and I wish you well with your photography. So far it is looking good :)

I can't recommend Rob highly enough.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Rob on a group shoot at Fareham Studio.

Within a minute or so, we hit it off and I felt like had known Rob for twenty years. Such a great guy and a brilliant model.

Please bear in mind that this was my first ever shoot with a male model and I could not have picked a better guy to work with.

He looks great, has a fantastic stylish wardrobe. He also brought his arsenal with him. It's just as well that the studio wasn't raided by the police, with all the weapons he brought with him!

The one brilliant thing - of many - about shooting with Rob, there's no editing required. What you see is what you get and nothing else required. You don't smooth out skin on a guy who has features you want to bring out - not hide.

Typing this reference, two days later and still buzzing from the shoot, that's how good it was!

100% recommended by me. You get fantastic images, you speak to a guy who is great company and he knows exactly what he is doing. Please take it from me, if you wish to shoot with a brilliant male model, Rob's your man.

Thank you Rob, for an incredible and memorable shoot.

Had yet another totally amazing shoot with the one and only Retro Rob - in fact it was 2 shoots, a four hour one to one shoot followed by a group shoot.

Rob is so full of enthusiasm, energy, fun and has a wonderful personality. On top of all that he is an incredible model who puts everything into every single shot. He so wants every image to be a fabulous image, and with Rob they are.

He is an unbelievably good model and one of the nicest people you could ever meet.

The shoot was incredible - fun, relaxed and produced so many wonderful and varied images. Rob’s styles ensure you will get different images to anything else in your portfolio.

A fantastic couple of shoots with so many truly amazing images.

Thank you so much Rob - bring on our next shoot.

Yet another shoot with the great Rob. I just love his wardrobe. Rob also brought some good pros for the Jazz age and Prohibition era that I had requested.

Such an easy model to work with, and he always looks fantastic in the images.

Highly recommended.

Rob and I worked together for a second time, during his recent studio day at Inspire Studios - something I'd looked forward to since our last collaboration a year earlier. This shoot was just as enjoyable as the first and I had a great time working with Rob to realise the mood-boards I'd put together, most following the vintage Hollywood gangster and noir styles that we both love so much.

Rob, as always, was a joy to work with - bringing so much style and character to the sets we shot, as well as great ideas to take images to the next level. Rob was patient throughout, helping me put together sets and full of energy when it was time to shoot.

We were able to realise all the ideas we set out to and more besides. I'm very pleased with the images we created, all of which are elevated by Rob's wonderful storytelling abilities coupled with his impeccable wardrobe and props.

Having discussed some ideas for a future collaboration during our shoot, I'm looking forward to working with Rob again in future and making them a reality. If you have the opportunity to work with Rob, I'd wholeheartedly encourage you to do so.

Booking Rob for the 2nd time, meant I was secured of a very successful productive group shoot, knowing his professionalism !

And so it was with this assignment, at an OLD RAILWAY station, with Rob producing excellent 50s style clothing ! Then coupled with his energy to create a storytelling visual was just magic for all taking part in this 4hr shoot.

The body pose - styling - facial expressions - hand language - gave so much storytelling to our photographs.

A bonus additive to this shoot, was AnnMarie in duo captures, Oh how they worked as a team in all aspect of gaining a picture ! (see album)

So Totally recommended beyond doubt !

I had the absolute delight of working with Rob on a Retro Styled group shoot arranged by MK Photography at a vintage railway station on the Spa Valley Heritage line in Kent. He was accompanied by the equally fabulous Ann-Marie Kelly, and together they absolutely nailed the retro look we were seeking and the result was a big set of beautifully cinematic images.

Rob's portfolio speaks for itself but it doesn't tell you that apart from having a great look, he has a fantastic attention to detail and is a thoroughly nice guy and really pleasant to work with.

We will certainly work together again!

I worked with Rob on an organised shoot recently and found the whole event thoroughly enjoyable. Rob is a star and was into the part with no effort at all, the outfits he provided were spot on and he captured the essence of the period exactly.

Fully professional throughout the event, nothing was too much trouble and working with the other model, some great images were captured.

Many thanks Rob for an excellent day, Cliff

I’m still buzzing from an amazing group shoot with the one and only Retro Rob - with a tango theme - at F8 Studio.

We covered a range of tango/dance looks and not only did Rob create some incredible looks, he also came up with some brilliant ideas for the backdrop and lighting setups (expertly carried out by Paul the studio owner) - using his photography skills as well as his awesome modelling abilities.

Yet more praise for his awesome poses and ability to come up with new and authentic looks that he applies brilliant acting skills to to create a sense of narrative and storytelling.

More still for his superb hosting abilities and making all the photographers feel welcome and at ease - and of course making us all laugh!

Rob is one of a kind and a true professional with 100% commitment and dedication to what he does - and he does it so well. I’m very lucky to get the opportunity to duo with him and can’t wait for our next shoot - details coming soon!!

Very highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

After the ‘Bat flu’ induced hiatus, this was the second shoot with Rob in as many months… This time working with his duo partner @melany.

Having worked with them both before I knew this was going to be good. They work so well together and ‘slip’ into character instantly.

Robs props and wardrobe are outstanding, and he uses them to great effect. Not only is he a fantastic model, but also a genuinely nice guy. Professional, friendly, hardworking and fun to work with.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again if you haven’t worked with Robbie, why not? It’s your loss, a unique model, providing the opportunity to get some unique shots…

Cheers Rob, here’s to next time. (Y)

This was my second shoot with Rob, this time at a tango themed group shoot with his duo partner Melanie. I knew this would be something special after the first shoot I had with Rob and I was right, he was confident, full of ideas, and when I did suggest something he immediately hit the pose perfectly.

It’s always a pleasure to work with top class models and this was no exception, a great day, lots of fun, and some great images to boot. I highly recommend Rob and we will work together again when the opportunity presents itself.

First time I have done a shoot with Rob. He made me feel comfortable straight away and chatted about the day. Rob was very easy to work with. He knows how to pose and had a selection of outfits. He was open to direction to the photographers and came up with ideas and props himself.

I would recommend working with Rob and cant wait to do so again.

Thanks Rob

OMG !!

Had my first shoot with Rob at f8 Studio run by Paul Davies. It was an absolutely amazing themed 1930/40 shoot.

It is clearly there had been and pre-planning gone into these shoots - giving me and other photographers the opportunity to create beautiful, varied, and amazing images. The images I came away with were magical and like no others.

Rob was superb throughout (as always) and fell into all the characters with ease - he is a natural and his character comes out in every lovely image. Rob totally gets into character with every single click, giving his all at all times also modelled to perfection.

He is wonderful to work with, always has so many clothing styles, and his enthusiasm results in ideas, inventiveness and energies being bounced between each other. Rob is wonderful to work with and every shoot is a precious shoot to be treasured.

He is a truly professional and give amazing session with truly amazing images

Thank you Rob for a great enjoyable day!

Paul :)

It’s been over 3 years (well pre covid) since I worked with Rob and Mel as a duo, and I got some wonderful images. So, when the opportunity to work with him on his own came up I jumped at it.

Not only is Rob a great model, he is also a true gentleman, a very warm and friendly human being and the owner of a fabulous top-notch authentic wardrobe, some superb and very high-quality props and a vast array of poses that fit the brief brilliantly.

I truly believe Rob’s style, his inimitability, his uniqueness and professionalism are without compare as a male model. It’s a pleasure to know and work with him.

So, as I’ve run out of superlatives, I’ll just say… if you haven’t worked with Rob, why not? You are absolutely missing out, get him booked up.

Thanks again Rob, you’re a genius (Y)
