Ria is a great model and a real pleasure to work with! She is very experienced and needs little to no direction, and actively contributes with great ideas and suggestions!

Super recommended!

Super shoot with Ria at the beach yesterday.

It is obvious from her portfolio and references that she is a professional, beautiful, talented model. And that was the case working with me too and we made some wonderful images.

What was an added delight was that she is also a highly intelligent, open, friendly and fascinating person! We spent about nine hours together with the shoot and the trip there and back. It seemed like only one!

If you get a chance to work with Ria while you can, grab it with both hands now!

Euphoric Images

I have just finished a shoot with the amazing Ria! I had put her on my 'to work with list' and thankfully we finally got to work together. Ria was a joy to work with and delightful to chat to during our shoot. Ria quickly understood my quirky ideas and added a great deal to the artistic quality of the shoot! Pre-shoot communication was excellent and all in all we created some wonderful inspiring images. This was my first shoot with Ria, and sadly I fear my last as, if you read her profile she is, retiring from modelling very soon. I would thoroughly recommend anyone to take the opportunity to work with Ria before she retires. I wish her every success in her new career!

C-Imagery

After a very long hiatus from shooting with the amazing Ria, it was high time to rectify the situation with a location portraiture shoot.

Luckily for us the fickle weather held true & give plenty of opportunities for some amazing natural light portraits.

Ria as always was on top form and as scintillating company after a quite long trek to find the perfect spot!

Thank as always, Ria for a great shoot & the very best of luck in your future endeavours!

Just back from a shoot with the amazing Ria Fantastic! Ria and I first met about three years ago on a group shoot but it’s only now that we have got together for a one to one shoot. I’ve been missing out! Ria is a genuinely beautiful lady and a great conversationalist who is very happy to bring her experience to bear on a shoot. I really appreciate this as I believe photography sessions should be a team effort to get the best out of them.

We found a quiet area of meadow and woodland and immediately Ria’s local knowledge paid dividends as access wasn’t straightforward. We ran through a series of poses and a couple of different shaded locations before ending up under a railway arch; lovely light but we had to keep running out of the way of cars!

Thank you Ria, it was Fun!

I asked Ria to join me on a ballroom dance-themed outdoor shoot at Rochester Castle. She arrived on time and pre-comms worked well. She is a stunning girl and very graceful and looked wonderful in our shoot, working with a male partner. She helped him to pose too as he was not an experienced dancer. We got some great results. I highly recommend her.

I had the most amazing shoot with Ria this Sunday gone and can straight up recommend this awesome lady. Everything about this shoot from pre-shoot comms to her amazing make-up and graceful interpretation of the theme was consummately professional and she is so beautiful and has such presence even though the weather (HOT) and light (very bright!) was challenging she gamely proceeded to offer up wonderful image after image. Absolutely loved working with her and hope she might consider another shot one day...even though I realise she has her dream job lined up :-). All the best Ria :-)

Kirsty Cox Hair and MUA

Shot a high fashion Geisha inspired shoot with Ria organised by Miguel a few weeks ago, and it is definitely one of my favourite shoots to date. It is my second shoot working with the team - both of which have been complex body paint shoots so we have spent a lot of time together!

Ria is a very unique beauty with fantastic features, incredible expression and a stunning figure. She is fun to be around and easy to chat to and I love watching her bring my work to life in front of the camera. Can’t recommend Ria more highly.

Ria and I first worked together in September 2018. I cannot believe this was probably the last time, and if you can get into her diary before she retires you absolutely need to move mountains to do it.

It's always incredibly rewarding and fun working with Ria. Her beauty and modelling skill speaks for itself, and I don't know a model like her. We worked again with HMUA Kirsty Cox on a complex and highly stylised geisha fashion concept at The Factory. As ever, she was patient during a four-hour preparation process, and skilled in front of the lens when the time came, despite some discomfort from the elaborate hair pieces.

This was one of my best ever shoots, no doubt about it. It being the last is only made bearable by knowing how positively things have moved on for Ria since we have known one another. Good luck and all the best.

I had to grab the opportunity for another shoot with Ria before she retires from modelling later this year. I’m very glad I did.

Ria is a lovely friendly young lady to shoot with. She is a very experienced professional model and it shows in every pose. She has plenty of ideas to offer and she also responds well to direction.

We deliberately went for a relaxed atmosphere with time to refine poses to get the ‘right’ shot. This worked well and I’m delighted with the images we created together.

I wish Ria well as she moves on to a new career. Sadly this will likely be my last shoot with her, but to any photographers who have the chance to shoot with her I’d say ‘seize the opportunity’.

Thank you Ria. I very much enjoyed our shoot.

I had a shoot with the outstanding Ria at my studio in London. I knew in advance that this was going to be a great shoot and wasn't disappointed. A totally professional model who knew exactly what was needed to get a great image. I cannot recommend her enough. A truly talented model who will be a great loss to PP when she retires in the summer. Get to shoot with her while you can.

Professional, beautiful, Energetic and highly recommended!

Ian Pattenden

Enjoyed a really lovely couple of hours with Ria, on location, at Canary Wharf. Unfortunately the weather was cold, damp and windy, which made outside photography quite difficult, but Ria was absolutely wonderful company. Her conversation was lively and very interesting, she was bright, positive and upbeat. A very likeable and kind-hearted person with a professional attitude towards modelling. Highly recommended.

Ria and I had chatted about shooting but never quite got together, so I just wanted to take the opportunity to shoot her whenever we could make it work.

The day was an absolute blast! She is energetic and keep you engaged at all times during the shoot, never letting you get into a monotonous situation, always talking and laughing and posing at the right moment.

Professional, beautiful, Energetic, happy, highly recommended!

My second shoot with Ria, and this time we shot at her home which was immaculate and had nice natural light. Super relaxed shoot, Ria was extremely professional and easy to work with - the photos look great. Highly recommended. Thank you Ria.

My first shoot with Ria - a half day at Beltcraft Studios.

Ria’s pre-shoot comms were excellent and on the day she arrived on time with a well-considered selection of outfits to match the venue, based on our discussions.

Ria possesses a unique beauty and brings a highly professional and confident approach to her work, together with a serious creative interest in the end result.

Ria Fantastic is highly intelligent and articulate, and talking with her brought an additional pleasure to the shoot. I very much hope to work with Ria on a future occasion - she is highly recommended.

Thank you Ria. At short notice Ria agreed to do a shoot due to a no show.

Best result ever, we laughed and had some fun. Nothing planned we just winged it for 3 hours.

We got some great images as a result.

She is very professional and easy going. A pleasure and without hesitation I recommend.

Another shoot is definitely on the cards.

I had great shoot with Ria at her flat. I'd worked with Ria before on a couple of outdoor shoots but wanted to try something a little different. Ria is easy to work with, willing to try new things and extremely versatile. I have no hesitation in recommending Ria and look forward to our next shoot.

Andrew Paul

I had my second shoot with Ria yesterday, and once again she lived up to her name - Fantastic. She worked hard throughout the shoot to ensure that we made the best shots possible.

I had a first shoot with Ria today on location in London Docklands and then at her lovely home in Canary Wharf. Ria is seriously beautiful inside and out and despite the atrocious weather she still shined through. Her pre comms were great she arrived on time and never complained once even though we were shooting in wind and rain.!! She suggested a lovely roof garden complete with palm trees and singing birds.!!

Back at her flat she was a great host, she made suggestions about the great light coming through the large window, needed no direction, fantastic company easy to talk to, she’s just a super person and we did get some great images.

100% recommended. Thanks Ria.

Ian.

With over 250 positive references already, there is probably little I can add except to say it's always a pleasure. Many thanks Ria ! :)
