Yay! A second spectacular shoot with Robyn! We'd cooked up a slightly crazy plan together during our first shoot and putting it into practice turned out to be hilarious, messy and occasionally quite tricky - and Robyn absolutely aced it.

It takes professionalism, confidence, a collaborative spirit and a mischievous sense of fun to pull this sort of thing off, and Robyn has all those things in abundance. It feels like we've done many more than 2 shoots together already, and I just know that we'll pick up right where we left off next time we meet.

Look no further for a creative, collaborative model who is easy to work with and will bring your ideas (even daft ones!) to life. Very highly recommended.

Second shoot with Robyn. This time outdoors in remotest Dorset. She coped magnificently with the bucolic setting!

Booked again as she is so versatile and accommodating as regards an assignment and a pleasure to work with.

Pre comms was excellent and we talked through what we wanted, then it was waiting for the shoot day, and what a scorcher it was.

Robyn was the most obliging and wonderful young woman i have worked with, professional all through, but always with a smile, it was without doubt the best location shoot i have done. The images we achieved im super happy with.

I wouldnt hesitate to recommend Robyn to anyone who will work within her levels, and we already have another shoot in mind.

Thank you Robyn

Imaginative, inventive, Robyn was great to work with. Responsive to requests for poses, she made the assignment a genuinely enjoyable experience. The results were excellent and just what were required.

Looking forward to further creative shoots with this great model.

Highly recommended.

It's a rare thing that on a first shoot you find yourself so perfectly in tune with one another, and this was one of those times. From the first moment our working styles and creative ideas aligned and we found ourselves in that magical zone where one crazy thought leads to another and we quickly ended up shooting something different (and dafter!) than either of us had planned.

It helps of course that Robyn has a fabulous look, boundless confidence and the experience to make it look easy! She is a true collaborator and inspiring creative and the love for her craft shows through in everything she does. She knows how to use her body and the light to great effect, and constantly strives to make the images better and better. In summary, a delight to work with.

We wrapped up our shoot with even more ideas left over than we started with, so we've already booked the next one. Enough said!

Highly recommended to all.

This, is a young lady who will go far. Excellent pre comms. A late venue change did not worry her although it doubled her driving time. Having met Robyn at a pervious shoot when she was working with another photographer, I was very impressed with her candor.

I was delighted when I was able to book her for myself.

Arrived on time and was shoot ready. A quick preview of all the items she had brought with her and a disscussion of what she would wear and when, then it was straight into the set.

She has a lot of patience while I fiddled with the lights , trying to make everything perfect. When not posing, which she does effortlessly, she always had a smile, and great conversation.

One of the loveliest models I have ever shoot, who not only has a stunning figure but also has a wonderful personality.

Very highly recommend

I’ve been keen to work with Robyn for some time and finally the opportunity arose.

She was happy to commit to the project and communication was excellent throughout.

We had discussed the theme and location where nothing was a problem. Robyn appeared to have a real enthusiasm for her modelling and it was a delight to work with her. She had a real engagement in what we were doing. Constantly checking that we were on track to get the right results and always contributing to the process.

The whole endeavour was everything I could hope for and I will definitely be looking to collaborate with Robyn in the near future.

Thank you very much

A second shoot with this wonderful model was such a fun way to spend 3 hours.

Another location shoot and Robyn arrived on time, full of enthusiasm and ideas. Although we'd discussed ideas for the shoot, on a whim I threw a few extras in the car and we spent the first half of the shoot utilising those extras.

Perfectly happy naked, in sheer dresses and in an evening dress she clambered on fallen trees, huddled among tree roots and lay back among the dead leaves, had a go at archery and even pulled a few ballet poses out of the bag.

I can't recommend her highly enough and I'm sure we'll be shooting together again soon.

Wow wow wow!What a lovely young lady a beautiful person professional inspiring ( talks a lot )

we worked together in the new forest on Saturday afternoon, we found a area to work in along the banks of the river Beaulieu. Once we found a location we decided what we were going to do and the results were amazing. Photos to follow in the next few days, I'm looking forward to working with this amazing young lady again soon. I highly recommend her your not be disappointed

Thanks again, see you soon

You Are Beautiful

Robyn was fantastic and very professional. Her knowledge of modelling showed through in front of the lens. She has a wonderful personality which made the time fun and enjoyable. Thank you Robyn for you help and advice you gave me on the day too. Thanks I look forward to working with her again in the future.

Unalloyed fun, this shoot, and some serious work.

Neither of us had visited the studio (Millhouse, half way between us) before, and both were interested in it and like quirky places, so that was an automatic win.

I brought a few props and a couple of ideas, some old, some new to this model and one I've never seen elsewhere (ahah!) and Robyn made sense and beauty with them.

I hope to work more in the same and different places with her, there is depth and thought.

And she is interesting company to keep.

I've got to work with Robyn again, she didn't eat all her chocolate buttons!

Seriously though, super model ideal for what I wanted. Perfectly capable of flowing from pose to pose but patient and understanding when you are trying to get to grips with new modeling styles. Competently at ease with her nudity particularly useful when you can't find the 'gizmo' you're looking for.

Listened intently to my ramblings about photography and 3 hours in the studio flew by.

Looking forward to another shoot, I'll get the buttons in.

I had the pleasure of working with Robyn for the first time today.

Pre comms were spot on and she arrived early at the meeting point (before I got there), with a bag full of lovely things to wear. Right from the off I knew it was going to be a good shoot. Robyn is so easy going and friendly with an infectious enthusiasm.

When it comes to posing she is wonderful at creating amazing shapes and really throws herself into it. She was full of ideas for shots and how to make the most of the outfits. Climbing trees, getting muddy, she does it with a cheeky smile and a determination to get that unique shot.

On the way back to the car we were already discussing our next shoot. This young lady is a star and deserves to be incredibly busy.

Given that we live in reasonable proximity and that she has been modelling for some time, it took a little while for Robyn's profile to appear in one of my searches. Once it had I knew I was looking at something out of the ordinary. No endless glamour pictures shot in front of studio colour rolls. In fact no glamour pictures at all, but instead a varied series of images which reflect individualism and intelligence, the latter quality being one which is also referred to repeatedly in her references. In the shoot itself I was therefore unsurprised to be dealing with someone who is not only mature and very pleasant, but also a model who readily accommodates being given a sword and a tarot card to hold and reacts enthusiastically to the result. Only those I have come to regard as my very best models have been offered a second shoot at the end of the first, but Robyn was. There is no need to say more.

I had my first shoot with the amazing Robyn on Sunday and I would most definitely jump at the chance to work with her again.

Firstly, she is a lovely person and so easy to get along with, but secondly she is an incredible model who works so hard to get the perfect shot.

She turned up on time with a suitcase filled with every style of clothing that we had discussed and was fully prepared. Her pre comms were on point and I couldn’t have wished for a better model/person to work with in my new studio that i have had built at the back of my house.

We worked through several sets including lingerie, sheer and implied before finishing with a bit of abstract artsy portraiture work to finish off.

I now have the enviable task of sifting through the hundreds of RAW images and decide what to edit 😀

Thank you Robyn, you are a true professional and a “must work with model” who should be at the top of every local photographers shortlist.

I am so glad I replied to Robyn’s casting looking for local photographers while she was in South Wales over the Bank Holiday weekend. Being a model who specialises in art nude and wanting to shoot in the landscape, she came to the right place…

Robyn’s pre-shoot communication was excellent, responding promptly and we exchanged ideas, a trip to my lock-up yielded a number of props, half of which we didn’t use as Robyn’s posing combined with the location didn’t need props.

Robyn is a creative, intelligent model, who clearly loves what she does and works hard during the shoot. She takes direction well and uses her experience and creativity to contribute to the shoot with her own ideas.

It was a real pleasure working with someone who knows their craft, works hard and nothing phases her; trust me, South Wales is not the warmest of places in April and the flowing water in the upper reaches of the River Taf is positively ‘Baltic’.

A very warm, friendly and chatty person who was a delight to work with and who I would thoroughly recommend to any photographer, and as she travels to Cardiff regularly, something tells me we will be working together again soon.

Thanks Robyn, you are an absolute star 🌟.

I had the great pleasure of working with Robyn on Easter Sunday, and what a 1st shoot it was too. We arranged to rendezvous at Wentwood Forest in South Wales, the sun was out, it was quiet and we had the best parts all to ourselves.

From the 1st shot to the last, including a nasty cut to the back of her leg and getting comfy amongst the forest floor brambles, Robyn was unstoppable. Working with me on ideas as well as a wealth of knowledge on striking many different poses I didn't know were possible.

Pre-comms were spot on, arrived early and I highly recommend her.

Robyn knows her craft extremely well, and I am definitely looking forward to our 2nd shoot.

Thank you again Robyn, you're totally wicked!!

I know you're not meant to have a favourite... just saying.

MistyDrew

I had a wonderful 2nd shoot with Robyn, we managed to cover 3 hours of Lingerie, Urban / Fashion and Art Nude images, with some great images to be sorted through really looking forward to sorting through them and working with Robyn again in the future.

Robyn brings so much to a shoot both ideas and suggestions of her own, along with inspiration for the photographer to work with. I look forward to working with her again as time allows for both of us.

Thanks Robyn you're fantastic as a model and I would highly recommend her to all photographers to work with!

I had a most enjoyable and productive shoot with Robyn a couple of days ago. She spent four hours at my studio modelling 1-2-1 for a couple of photographer colleagues and then a further three hours working with me.

Arranging the shoot could not have been easier - Robyn responded very promptly and efficiently to messages and the arrangements were quickly and easily agreed. Robyn arrived in good time to the shoot, together with everything she had been asked to bring and far more besides. She was enthusiastic and maintained her energy levels throughout the day. Robyn took great care to ensure that I and the other photographers captured the images they wwanted and was able to contribute her own excellent ideas and suggestions on several occasions.

Robyn has an amazing figure and well toned body. She was able easily to create some great shapes, including many which have proved impossible for other models in the past, whilst also maintaining her muscle tone and controlling her breathing to best effect.

An intelligent, elegant, articulate young woman who is good company and has a great sense of humour.

Each of my two photographer colleagues, as he was leaving, was keen for me to arrange a return visit and I have pencilled in a date with Robyn for my own next shoot with her. There can be no stronger recommendation.

Thank you, Robyn - I look forward to working with you again shortly.

Jon Taylor

Worked with Robyn for the first time today, shooting at Gloucester Prison.

I’m so glad I booked her for this shoot.

Robyn is an absolute delight to work alongside; she’s professional, dedicated to her craft, and intent on getting the absolute best out of a shoot. Robyn brings so much to the table; zest, a lovely personality, a keen eye for an image, creativity in abundance and an absolutely massive work ethic. Unafraid to work an environment to achieve the shot, bold and daring, and of course stunningly beautiful.

Robyn, as I discovered, is the queen of dark spaces, always looking for that shaft of light that will bend the shadows to her will.

A total joy to shoot with, I really hope Robyn will work with me again.

Hugely recommended.
