Another superb shoot with Russ today .

I found a fantastic location for us to shoot . The location had so much to offer with the old buildings the stone work and the scenery. Great props to sit upon etc.

Pre shoot comms are always excellent. Russ makes me laugh with the messages he send. Lovely sense of humour:-)

As per usual I had half a wardrobe in my case haha. I managed to stay dressed for at least 10 mins.

Then all hell broke lose . I was running around naked as per usual .

We had s look round the site so we could decide where to shoot etc . We found some big stone cogs which were fantastic to lay upon etc .

Once we'd sorted out where we were shooting. The fun began . :-) .We captured some excellent images. I've had some finished edits which are excellent. I'm so happy with the shoot the images and the location etc.

We did a number of different sets with mebeing naked as per usual haha.

Russ is a real gentleman very professional as a photographer. I class him as a dear friend now :-)

We've got an excellent rapport. We have our own style of shooting together. Russ always brings flask and hot drinks . Lunch is always bought . Russ is a very caring considerate with all the models he shoots with .

I absolutely love working with Russ. Now would I recommend. Hell yes 💯 percent .

Thanks Russ

I had another great shoot with Russ today, albeit a cold one.

Russ was very considerate; brought a flask so I could warm my hands up and have a mini break from the bitter wind.

The shoot was a lot of fun, he had some great ideas and was very relaxed, he made sure I was comfortable and kept things flowing smoothly.

I had such a good day and I'd recommend him highly.

I look forward to our next shoot Russ!

Another fun packed shoot with Russ today .:-)

Pre shoot comms are hilarious as per usual. We have such a laugh .

When Russ arrived at mine he started setting up his lights . He couldn't figure out why the lighting was a bit belly up. After pulling bits out and putting bits back . It suddenly dawned on him it was the living room door 🚪 that was causing the lighting problems haha. I thought Russ was the only one with problems. I was having issues standing still and posing in high heels. I kept stumbling over like a drunk woman lol. So between the pair of us it was like a scene of a Laurel and Hardy show haha. We were both laughing so much . We hadn't even started the shoot . I couldn't believe an hour had passed by before I finally stood in front of the lens.

I had lots of outfits and shoes at the ready for Russ to choose from. Not that I kept them on for to long ;-)

We discussed a variation of styles we were shooting,. Yet again doing a fashion set I really struggled to keep my clothes on again haha . I find it really difficult to pose wearing clothes so it seems hee hee.

I think Russ gave up trying to get me to shoot fashion. So we did some fetish, art nude and lingerie sets.

Russ is an absolute pleasure to work with . We talk laugh and we've also developed our style of shooting together. Which is great 👍 :-)

Russ is totally professional a real gentleman and a pleasure to be around . Next 2 shoots are booked . I'm looking forward to seeing the finished edits.

Would I recommend Russ. Dam right I would 💯 % .

See you in March.

Thanks again

Chels :-)

I had the pleasure of shooting with Russ today . What an absolute joy it was :-)

Pre shoot comms were excellent. Our conversations on the phone were extremely funny. The typed messages Russ sent me had me in stitches most of the time. Very much a quick liner joker. Russ should have his own stage haha.

Initially we agreed on fashion at a fantastic location Russ loves to use. Well when I saw it clothes didn't really come to mind. Getting naked seemed far much more better ;-)

As per usual I packed lots of outfits and shoes. I think I did my best keeping my clothes on for 3 sets. I find it hard to keep my clothes on haha :-) . I feel trapped hee hee.

I braved the freezing cold wet weather and got naked . Oh what fun I had . It was great seeing Russ run about taking images of me from various angles.

Russ came very well prepared for the cold day . Plenty of hot water and beverages to keep us warm . I had to keep getting back into the car as I was turning slightly blue . Lunch was also provided after we scooted round Morrisons :-) . I was tempted to put some booze in the basket haha

Russ as an absolute joy to be around. A real gentleman and a pleasure to work with . He's very professional at his photography. You can sense his passion for it when he's got his camera in hands.

Would I recommend Russ HELL YES. 100%. He's boom 💥 tastic in my eyes.

See you in January Russ

Thank you so much for today . It was superb ;-)

Had my first shoot with Russ and loved every minute of it. He is an exceptionally talented Photographer with a great understanding of light and what poses look good on camera. Russ was very supportive throughout the shoot, offering direction on poses and was completely professional and at ease throughout. He made me feel comfortable and gave constant feedback and compliments when something worked well. He was also open minded and encouraged my ideas as well. It would be a pleasure to work with Russ in the future. Best Wishes Jane

15th shoot with Russ!!! Again a joy to shoot with and some more awesome locations!

Russ made sure I didn't get too cold by setting up a shot quickly and letting me keep warm until the very last min.

Full of laughs, fun and overall as I have said many a times before, another perfect shoot.

Looking forward to many more shoots with Russ to come and highly recommend him to all!!

Russ & I shot together for just an hour at a group shoot and we had a blast! We had good comms beforehand to discuss a few different options so we both knew what to expect. I brought one of my kimono's along and Russ came prepared with some huge fans as props for me to use.

We also did a nude set, including some nudes in the trees - one of my favourite settings.

Russ was an absolute joy to shoot with - fun, friendly, and professional at all times. I thoroughly recommend him and I hope we can find time to work together again in the future.

Had an amazing shoot with Arbie at a group shoot the other day, he was the utter professional and totally put me at my ease as we were doing a nude shoot, he let me be silly and creative and had some good ideas to direct me so we got some lovely shots. He took the greatest number and variety of shots that day out of 6 photographers and would 100% recommend working with him, a really great guy. Hopefully we'll get to work together again!

So our story continues, me and Russ attended the Woodchester mansion shoot and heck was it a good day- well actually it was great.

After an 8am pick up and a 2 and a half hour drive me and Russ shot through this beautiful old mansion for the day and we produced some brilliant images which I won't ever forget.

As always Russ was on time, professional, fun and easy going. Preparing me with great communication skills and knowledge so I knew exactly what to expect and what I needed to bring. I thoroughly enjoyed shooting with him and in honesty I always do he is so laid back but knew exactly what he wanted to get from the day which is always a big help yet he let's me pose with ease when I want to.

I will obviously be shooting with Russ again as it's always a pleasure, we created some amazing images and have such fun days out.

Thanks Russ. For a great time!

Look forward to planning more in the future.

Words can't explain how much I enjoy shooting with Russ, but our images say it all. We work extremely well together, he creates outstanding images and being our fith shoot together speaks volumes. I am always keen to get on the camera and be checking out the great images we produce.

He knows how I like my images to be created, what poses suit me best and lets me pose freely without making me feel pressured into to much direction.

I am excited to see our final results and can't wait for our big shoot in Woodchester mansion in a few weeks time. Thanks again Russ.

So much fun and much more to come!

Russ is a true gent!

We made our way to Northington Grange for a fashion style shoot which Russ very kindly drove me too!

The location was perfect, so much variation and opportunity to be had there! We had a few outfit changes and different looks, from bright sunshine to less when the sun started to go down.

Russ is friendly and relaxed and I had a really enjoyable shoot. Very much looking forward to seeing the images!

I'm sure it won't be our last :-)

Thanks again Russ!

Having not long come back from my Berkshire tour I had a second chance to work with Russ and of course I snapped it up. This time we were shooting at Map Studios and it was great to work in a different environment with him.

He arrived on time, even after having a fair drive to get there, and was ready to shoot promptly. As always working with Russ is very easy and he had a good idea of what we would shoot. He had good understanding of the lighting and studio equipment too.

He gives great direction where needed but also allowed me to do my own thing. It felt like we were really able to work as a team and it was great fun. He even brought some fab props and items to use.

As I have said before he comes highly recommended! Thanks, once again for a great shoot. It was a total blast.

I was so pleased to finally get the chance to work with Russ while down on my Berkshire tour. When I first came across his portfolio I knew we just had to work together.

His communications were great and we had a clear plan for the day's different locations, shooting art nude. From the moment we met I felt comfortable and confident. He is very approachable and easy to talk to. His knowledge of the locations was great, and his careful planning made sure I stayed warm and fed throughout the day.

Thanks to his offer of driving us around, we managed to visit a great variety of locations throughout the day, and with his professional approach to his work, the shoots flowed easily. He allowed me to pose freely but gave great direction on his ideas too. We laughed and chatted our way through the day and the time flew by.

I can highly recommend Russ to any model new or experienced at art nude.

Thanks so much for a great day! It was a blast and I hope we get to work together again in the future.
