I had the pleasure of shooting with Roland recently and what a joy it was. Roland is very experienced, which showed in his communication both in advance and during the shoot. He and his wife were incredibly welcoming and I felt very comfortable in their space.

Roland had good ideas of what he wanted to work on and has a lovely style. The shoot flowed naturally and we had good fun throughout.

From the start, Roland brought great enthusiasm for both the shoot and for life. Our discussions were thought provoking, insightful and a good laugh.

I would highly recommend shooting with Roland. I can't wait to see some of the pictures and would be delighted to be back soon!

I am very happy with my 3rd shoot with Roland,it went really great and I got the best memories from it. Roland is very dedicated to photography, he appreciates actual art and is always after best results with his own unique input in it. Roland is a pleasure to shoot with, he and Simonetta treated me in the best way as always and I am very happy I spent 2 amazing days with them. We tried a lot of different ideas with Roland, shooting both outdoors and indoors and had some nice breaks in between. Roland has a really great photography vision and used some new techniques to capture some amazing shots with usual angles and creative approach. I really enjoyed our shoot and can’t wait for the next one. It is always such a fan to shoot with Roland and to be in company of Roland and Simonetta.

Thank you, highly recommended,100%

Last month I had my third shoot with the lovely human that is Roland :-) somehow each shoot seems better than the least, solely thanks to Roland, who is one of the kindest people I have had the pleasure of shooting with!

We booked a 4 hour shoot, which felt like 2 by the way, and poor Roland didn’t get nearly as many photos as he should have because I kept talking :-) I’m blaming that on him though, being the wonderful gentleman that he is, the conversation just kept flowing and it didn’t feel like work at all!

Roland has just sent me some of the images from our shoot and I would recommend him one million percent, because he isn’t just a wonderful person, he’s also a very naturally talented photographer so you won’t just have a great time, you’ll also star in some stunning images!

Thanks Roland for yet another great shoot and see you soon!

I feel like I found my favourite photographer,as Roland is amazing, and his talent is overwhelming, he sees inner part of the soul and looks deep into it,looking for the right emotion and truly genuine facial expression. This was my second shoot with Roland, which left many bright good memories for me.So we took a lot of great shots,using some probs,coming up with different ideas, it all went well enough due to Roland's approach to the shoot, as he is really dedicated to the photography.

Can't mention another reason I really like to shoot with Roland, he is very friendly, welcoming and interesting photographer who is a pleasure to shoot with. Roland and Simonetta treated me really well, I enjoyed the shoot and their company and I felt like we are all good friends, such nice atmosphere was on that day. I am very happy with the way everything went, I couldn't be more grateful Roland and Simonetta for such lovely weekend

Thank you

Highly recommended, 100%

Oh I wouldn't be even happier with my shoot with Roland, it is impossible to make it better. Roland is fantastic to shoot with, his interaction with a model is perfect, he encouraged me to feel very good and I did believe all praise he told me, so he makes model enjoy herself. That's important for me to see that the photographer likes the shoot and everything went brilliant. Roland turned on the relaxing music,fluency of which helped me to catch that special mood. I can't not to mention Roland's amazing personality, I do like this amazing couple,Roland and his wife Simonetta are so great to come along with ,I felt like I am at home, the atmosphere was fantastically friendly. What nice people I met today,I am very happy with this shoot and looking forward to seeing you again,highly recommended, 100%, you will be lucky if Roland invites you to shoot with him 😊

I spent a lovely weekend in Bristol with Roland and Simonetta. We had an amazing shoot with Roland, he's absolutely a pleasant company and a professional photographer. It went very smoothly and 4 hours quickly flew by. The lovely Simonetta made some risotto for dinner, the first time I tried and it was delicious. I couldn't be more grateful for the warm hospitality, especially in these times, it was so delightful to meet you guys and this weekend felt like a holiday, rather than anything else. Thank you again and hope to see you soon. -Zs

I shot with Roland last week, and what a pleasure it was!

The perfect host who was thoughtful enough to put a heater on, endless cups of tea and all round great company to work with!

Looking forward to our next shoot and looking forward to seeing the outcome! ❤️

I had my first 2 hour shoot with Roland over the weekend and it was great :) Roland and his wife were very friendly and welcoming (we had the shoot in his lovely garden), I instantly felt comfortable. His pre comms were good I brought some colourful summer dress options for the shoot. He is very relaxed and we had several interesting chats throughout, he tried out his different cameras and we got to experiment with ideas. Happy to do another shoot together, especially seeing as we are so local to each other and I had a lovely time the first time with this lovely gentleman :)

Looking forward to seeing what we've created!

I just had a really awesome first shoot with Roland at his lovely home, and I would recommend him to absolutely anyone!

Roland is so kind, so accommodating, such a gentleman, very respectful of boundaries, levels, privacy etc;... and he made me feel very welcome and comfortable in his home the moment I walked through the door.

My train up was delayed so he very kindly met me at a different station, drove me to and from his home and even stayed at the station to make sure I got my train back to London!

We shot for 4 hours, but it seemed like 2, Roland has a great sense of humour, is very easy to talk to, and very passionate about photography, which makes him a great photographer, keen to learn and try new things, but also knows what he wants to achieve from a shoot which is helpful from a models perspective as well.

Absolutely amazing time, couldn’t fault Roland in the slightest and I just hope he is as happy with me as I was :-)

I had my first shoot with Roland yesterday and it was great!

His pre shoot comms were fab - I felt totally prepared. He picked me up and dropped me off at the station, made sure I was warm throughout, made sure I had plenty of tea and even provided a lovely lunch!

We had some great music on in the background and he encouraged singing and dancing.

I enjoy experimenting with his lighting techniques and the shots I've seen so far are great.

I'd love to work with him again soon!

Just had my second shoot with Roland - I was so exited to shoot with him again, even more so than last time because I knew what to expect, which was to spend half a day shooting with an incredibly lovely, kind, fun, passionate gentleman :-)

Roland was so sweet, picked me up and dropped me off at the station, made me tea, his lovely wife had made salad which he was kind enough to share with me, and despite me babbling basically non-stop for 4 hours straight (I’m sorry Roland, but you bring it out in me! ;-) ), he seemed to be happy with the results and images he did manage to capture in between bloopers of me smiling or laughing (again - I just can’t help it).

Roland showed me the results from our previous shoot and the images he chose were absolutely stunning, nothing to do with me, and all to do with his talent and eye for lighting, shadows, composition etc;...

Thank you again Roland for being one of my favorite people to shoot with - very highly recommended!

I had my first shoot with Roland yesterday whilst I was visiting Bristol. We shot from his lovely spacious home. We were lucky to get some lovely sunlight shining through the windows as well. Roland also has studio equipment at his home as well with lighting and backdrops.

Roland is really really relaxed when it comes to shooting! Definitely not someone that has to be spending every minute of our time shooting away. We started with a cup of tea (he has a great tea selection!) and we looked through some of his photos to get an idea of the style he likes to go for which is very natural and casual.

We chatted away and had a good laugh through out the shoot. Plenty of time for tea breaks as well. The time went by very quickly!

I would happily recommend him to others.

I had the pleasure of working with Roland today at his very spacious house in Bristol. His precommunication skills were excellent. He is such a lovely, down to earth person as well as an amazing photographer. We got on so well and the time flew by! The images from the back of the camera looked fab and I cannot wait to see the final images! Roland comes very highly recommended by me and I look forward to working with him again in the near future. Thank you so much Roland for a great time!

Had the pleasure of working with Roland today in Bristol. Certainly it was my favourite shoot I have ever done in this city :D Roland is a true professional behind his camera, but most importantly such a nice guy! Our four hour shoot went by so quickly & we created so many interesting looks(can't wait to see the images, they looked amazing off the back of the camera :D) I would love to work with Ronald again & highly recommend him to any model.

Much Love
