Absolutely delightful experience of working with Rob for the first time today.

Easy pre-comms, quick replies. Following my recommendation, Rob has booked a room in the Kings Head hotel an hour away from where I live. He drove all the way from London, picked me up and brought us both to the location - what a gentleman!

On the location, Rob was very kind and easy to work with. He is a true professional and indeed full of the creative ideas :) I am a bit overwhelmed with an amount of looks we managed to do, I am confident we have got some reeeally good shots, I will definitely be posting them on my portfolio.

Hopefully will get to work with you in the closest future, and thank you so much for today!

100% recommended.

I shot with Robert on a location group shoot a while ago and he got in touch here and we shot at my home just before Christmas - I’m so glad he got in touch! Robert is such a gentleman, very easy-going and respectful of my privacy, personal space and levels etc;... We had an amazing shoot, time flew by, and 4 hours seemed like 2 :-) Apart from being kind, funny, intelligent, worldly and very easy to talk to, Robert also happens to be a talented photographer with some really great ideas and skills, so you won’t just have a great time, you’ll also definitely look amazing in all his photos :-) Thanks Robert for a lovely afternoon, come back any time!

A pleasure to work with Robert for the first time yesterday!

Great communication before the shoot, and a really friendly, relaxed person to work with. We had a fab shoot at my home location covering lots of different styles. I loved seeing Robert experimenting with different lighting, and he puts the effort in to get it just right! We got some absolutely stunning shots, I can't wait to see which ones he picks! Overall, a lovely, respectful photographer, and a fun shoot. Thank you very much Robert, highly recommended and hope to shoot again soon!!

Robert was extremely kind to book me recently at The Hacienda in London where I was raising money for The Haciendas charity "Shelter from the Storm" which is a homeless charity based in London.

Robert kindly booked half a day with myself and the studio and was such a pleasure to work with! We hadn't worked together before, so I am always a little nervous but needn't have been! Robert shoots at a relaxed and enjoyable pace with plenty of breaks but is also super productive. He also gives great direction to the model and aims for quality images.

I really look forward to the uploads, they looked beautiful!

Thank You so much for a lovely day and I really hope to work with you again in 2019! Highly recommended to all, Helen x

I had another simply wonderful shoot with Robert in London - We shot at the Hacienda as well as some street photography!

I love working with Robert - we get on like a house on fire and I just love his conversation!! Though sometimes we chat more than we shoot hahah - but we get wonderful results so thats okay!! :D

We shot a great range of stuff and I love that Robert listens to any suggestions that I have and often welcomes my creative input! I love how appreciative he is of my hard work and I love how hard he tries in return to really nail the shots!! Robert always has a wonderful upbeat and happy attitude which is so wonderful to bounce off.

Robert is always professional and respectful and always concerned about model welfare - when shooting outside we stopped early due the wind and rain! Luckily we managed to find a sheltered place o shoot which just was the perfect set to finish our wonderful shoot!!!

I cannot wait for or next shoot!!! Which I hope is soon! Highly recommended!

Cleve is a lovely, fun professional photographer who works hard to achieve great images!

Highly recommended and I would love to shoot again! xx

I really don't know what to say....I mean what a shoot!!! :D I LOVED shooting with Robert!! I just had such a wonderful time its unreal! He was my first shoot in a long stint of 5 days at the Hacienda and I couldn't of asked for a better start to my week!! :D

Firstly, Robert is just lovely! He is so friendly and chatty and immediately makes you feel like you've been friends for years! He is super interesting to be around and I could have quite easily just chatted with him the entire time! :D Not only did we have lots in common, but I just lobed his whole attitude, passion and enthusiasm, for life and for photography!

So, as a photographer - again, Robert was great!! He created some really beautiful light is some rather difficult conditions! The end result were just so fabulous and dreamy! He is creative and works hard for the right shot! But also he listens, and works WITH his models! Which is always so great, when a photographer respects the opinions of the model he is shooting! He listened to my ideas as well as having some awesome ideas of your own!!

The compositions were fabulous - and I am super excited to share the images as I am very proud to be a part of them! I was so pleased that after the shoot Robert came to lunch with me as I was enjoying chatting with him so much! I really hope we get to shoot again as Robert offers everything you could want, a great photographer and a lovely person! SO yes, I hope we can shoot again and I would HIGHLY recommend him to other models !

Robert was part of a group shoot I attended at Sudio 33 with lulia david and he stood out straight away. Robert is so friendly and lovely and put me at ease as I was running behind because of public transport so arrived a tad flustered to say the least! The communication was great as Robert take the time to stop and show me what sort of images we were getting and he offered great direction and attention to detail. Absolutely loved the images Robert took and cant wait to work with him again :)

I had an amazing shoot with Robert a couple of weeks ago,he picked me up from home and we went to the Studland beach to shoot which was a super location, but had some difficulties because of people watching, especially on the nudist beach...:D But even in this situation Robert was really nice and calm which made me feel relaxed. After a couple of hours we went back to my place to shoot some glamour type of images there as well. Altogether the shoot was really great and fun and Robert is a really nice person and a good photographer. I've already seen the raw images and I love them, cant wait to see the edited ones!

Highly recommended and would love to work with him again :)

Ive just had my first shoot with Robert and what a pleasure he is to work with :)

Robert travelled far and still arrived within plenty of time to set up at my house.

I was made to feel comfortable straight away and throughout the duration of the shoot.

As a result of our great teamwork and ideas we have produced some stunning images that I cannot wait to share.

100% recommended and I would be lucky to work with Robert again :) x

Absolute joy to work with Robert, he was attending a lighting portraiture workshop by Kris Karl that I modelled for - he produced some amazing images, I look forward to seeing a few final products, and was very kind and funny - very enjoyable day and highly recommend Robert! x

Iulia David

Robert attended to one of my Beauty tuition. I am seriously amazed by the images he took. He came on time and he was very professional.

I cannot wait to see some of the final results and hopefully having him again at Studio 33.:)

Ayla

I worked with Robert at the fantastic Hacienda studio alongside my model wife Artemis Fauna.

We had a fantastic shoot and I found Rob to be friendly, easy to converse with and had a warm genuine demeanour.

We covered a variety of things and I loved the back of camera images!

Highly reccomend and I hope we get to shoot with each other again soon :)

Artemis Fauna

Two brilliant shoots with Robert in the space of two days! First one with Ayla at the Hacienda and the second with Iulia David at her Studio on a 1-2-1 tuition event!

Both shoots were great- I can't believe it has been around 3 years since Robert and I last shot (!) How time flies!

Robert as always was very relaxed when shooting. Chatty, positive- giving great feedback and producing some suuuuper images. I can't wait to see more from the two days :)

I really hope it won't be another three years! Looking forward to doing it again one day, thank you, Robert :)

My second time shooting with robert!

Each time has been a wonderful experience with both the pleasure of his company and collaborating on the same level so we both create the best of our work, ideas whilst clicking the shutter we never seem to run out of ideas.

A perfect gentleman I hope to work with again very soon.
