Had my 2nd shoot with Rob at his Fareham studio day.

As always Rob delivers with his poses. This guy is so versatile with any suggestion that you make. He goes all out to make sure his outfit is on point. Cannot express enough what a top guy Rob is as well as a top model.

Yes!! It was so brilliant to be working with Rob again post-lockdown, I had missed our days so much. This time we were at Far Forest Studio doing a Romancing the Stone themed event.

As always, Rob put so much thought and effort into the looks for the day and on the day itself he was enthusiastic as always, and worked really hard to ensure that the photographers all left with the shots that they want. He really goes the extra mile and is such a pleasure to shoot with

Rob is such a professional and brings so many skills and talents to a shoot - it is impossible to take a bad shot of him!

Thank you Rob for an amazing return to our duo modelling days! I look forward to the next one soon.

I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Rob for the first time today at his themed duo shoot with Melany at Far Forest Studio. He is a great guy and a talented model who moves effortlessly between poses. During the two hours Rob provided four different looks all based on their "Romancing the Stone" theme. Together Rob and Mel are an excellent duo to shoot as they move effortlessly from pose to pose in perfect harmony. A very enjoyable way to spend a Saturday morning as we emerge from lockdown. Thank you for your efforts Rob in making this shoot happen, it was great to meet you and I hope we get the opportunity to shoot again in the future. Highly recommended!

Awesomely creative. Truly professional. Absolutely Inspirational. Total gentlemen. Great Fun.

I am actually fairly mind-blown after having Rob in the studio today, in particular at what was created in a fairly short space of time.

Rob has a keen interest in getting it right, so working patiently and methodically together to get the set up right, we nailed shot after shot after shot!

PLEASE COME BACK SOON!

I think you could read this as a recommendation!

SO....how can I follow up the studio recommendation with anything more positive from the photographer's perspective?

I can't: except to say I'd work Rob everyday, all day long, if I could.....there is so much more mileage in Rob themes, and his creative and collaborate approach to image building makes it a dream! I hope our first shoot will be followed up soon!

Had an absolutely amazing shoot with Rob today at Fareham Studio

A shoot with Rob takes me to a different level of photography- he inspires, always produces, has so many ideas & styles, and on top of this a shoot with Rob is fun, fun, fun.

He adapts to all the different styles with ease and looks great whichever style and genre is asked of him - giving 100% with every click of the camera. His love of modelling is clear to see as is his desire for the photographer to be happy.

A great model and a great personality who delivers so many awesome images every time.

Definitely recommended - a photographers dream in my opinion

Thanks Rob - can’t wait for our next shoot later this month.

Had a fabulous location shoot with Rob at a Rococo Garden in a style that we haven’t done before. As always he turned up with some superb looks and coupled with his amazing modelling skills the shoot was a total success.

We were working with a small group of photographers within covid guidelines and Rob worked hard to make the shoot productive and enjoyable.

He works tirelessly to ensure that everyone is happy whilst making sure that visitors the gardens weren’t inconvenienced.

I’m constantly amazed at Rob’s ability to come up with amazing ideas in a location that he’s never even been to. His eye for a shoot makes it easy for the photographer to get stunning and original images.

Thank you Rob for another super shoot and I’m looking forward to our next one in a few weeks! :)

Very highly recommended.

Another successful shoot with both Melany and Retro Rob. Three hours outdoors in the excellent Rococo Gardens near Painswick. Our small group managed to find plenty of places for shooting with minimal disturbance of the public! Both models, as always, had plenty of ideas and changes of outfits.

Great company and a good way to get out enjoy whilst keeping to the Covid regulations!

Just back from the most wonderful 70s style location shoot with Rob and wow what a day we had.

Not only is Rob superb company with his unlimited energy and enthusiasm but this guy simply has the most creative and inspired ideas! He’d never been the location before but knew exactly how to get the best shots from it.

He has delighted the photographer within minutes of arriving and the shoot produced an abundance of original, stylish and eye catching images.

I love working with Rob as he’s such a pleasure to model alongside and as you can see from his other reference the photographers love him too!

You simply won’t get better so what are you waiting for! Drop him a line, you won’t regret it!

what a great day. taking super images on a sunny day with two of the best models around.

professional, friendly, happy, caring,and knowledgable.

Rob is know not only a model but also a photographer, this makes his contribution to the shoot so amazing, as Rob has some great ideas. Rob as a model just excels.... nothing is too much trouble....and if there is something on location that we cannot immediately think how we can use it.... Rob is quietly thinking whilst working how we can use the item.

i absolutely love working with Rob and Mel...they have supplied me to some outstanding images which have and still are in the international circuit getting awards and acceptances.

anyone thinking about booking this duo stop thinking and start booking......they are a brilliant team.....

Rob was excellent !! Very easy to work with and very pleasent to talk to. Rob knows what works in front of the camera and carries his retro look like the pro he is. I had a very productive session with him at Inspire Studios and he gets my unreserved approval. I look forward to having another photo session with him and Melany in the near future.

Thanks Rob and thanks Inspire Studios

Finally! After a four month wait I was reunited with Retro Rob! We did a socially distanced location duo shoot together in Salisbury’s historic centre with the lovely Canonphoto.

I’ve really missed shooting with Rob and it was lovely to have a day shooting on location with him. As always he turned up with a big smile, unlimited ideas, a stunning wardrobe of outfits and plenty of enthusiasm.

The shoot was a massive success as always and thankfully there are plans being made for our next shoot together.

Rob comes very highly recommended by me - if you want a highly professional, original and very talented model then look no further!

Oh wow! Two totally different shoots in two days with the one and only amazing Retro Rob.

The first was a studio shoot at Inspire Studios, Salisbury. I have had many shoots with Rob and each one has different themes/style - his versatility seems endless as are his ideas. It was a superb 2 hours and the results are better than I could ever have imagined. A number of different styles. All posed impeccably by Rob.

The second was the following day - being a location shoot around Salisbury with the wonderful Melany. They both work together in perfect harmony at all times and in all locations - even though this was a socially distanced duo shoot. This in no way hindered the shoot. It made it even more fun and imaginative. The results were outstanding of Rob on his own and with Melany.

What do you get when shooting with Retro Rob? ...

- a model who has so much style

- a model with a wonderful personality and is so easy to get along with

- endless ideas

- 100% professionalism

- a relaxed and fun shoot

- amazing images. Whatever the style/ genre.

I thoroughly recommend Rob to any photographer wanting to have a great few hours and come away with terrific images.

Thanks Rob - a great weekend, Nick

Yet another shoot with the fantastic vintage=look model, Retro Rob. He never disappoints, immaculately turned out, with a selection of well-tailored suits, and wacky two-tone shoes.

I always enjoy shooting with Rob, and hope to have many more in the future.

Highly recommended, every shot is a winner.

Inspire Studios Ltd

So this was Robs first solo studio day at the studio and wow what an absolute star he was! As always Rob is super organised and brought so many amazing outfits and props for the day! Everything is so immaculately packed that you never have to worry about creases in clothing and it’s all so well put together. Rob is very particular to make sure things look authentic and within the decade that he is modelling and his attention to detail is perfect.

Of course along with superb modelling you get the fantastic guy with an awesome personality, what more could you want. He’s a dream to work with and have at the studio. Can’t wait to see him back! Thanks again Rob to a wonderful day.

First time I've worked with Rob as a solo but what a hugely productive session we had. He is such a lovely easy going guy and was enthusiastic at everything I came up with adding his own unique flavour to each set. Pre comms were perfect and he came with everything I'd asked for and more. Very highly recommended and I'm looking forward to working with him again.

MAAN Studios

It's always a pleaure to work with Rob at the studio. His creativity is amazing and is always so professional, friendly and versatile. He always comes to the studio prepared with ideas and a suitcase full of props and clothes. We would highly recommend working with Robbie, so much so that we plan on doing so on a more regular basis.

Finally got to work with the completely unique Retro Rob. We shot together with @melany at Far Forest Studio and it was an amazing experience. Firstly, what a lovely guy Rob is. Simply a pleasure to be around and to work with. As a model, he's pretty incredible. He has a fantastic look and range. He's able to pull off some really wonderful looks and capturing those with him was an absolute blast! Not only that, but working as a duo with M e l a n y and you can see why they're such a sought after pairing. They work so well together.

Having worked through the images, I couldn't be happier with how they turned out. If you want to add something special to your portfolio, you have to book Rob. He's a total star and very highly recommended by me! (He has great taste in music too)

Thanks Rob. Hope we get to do it again soon :-)
