I am very lucky to have Samantha as one of my sponsored models - not only is she incredibly versatile, but she always has brilliant ideas to bring to the design process.

I have worked with her many times and always been outstanding with the results. On the occasion that I had the pleasure of shooting with her she was extremely professional, working well with the photographer to bring amazing poses, and also ensured that my products were displayed well.

Could not recommend enough, I look forward to shooting with her many more times x

Finally getting to work with Sam was awesome! We'd had ideas in the passed that sadly just stayed on the shelf until I asked her if she'd be interested in being a part of my character project. We had a mad rush a few hours before the shoot for fabric and luckily my other half and his handy work he went to making the costume I had in mind while Sam sat there and allowed me to do her make up. Shes a gem to work with! Great communication before, during and after the shoot, friendly and very easy to chat to. She took direction very well and put her own spin on the character. I enjoyed working with her very much and we've already got a few shoots planned now! :) Highly recommend!

Worked with Sam again yesterday , and as always It was wonderful and creative! This lovely lady is a joy to work with and never fails to create a really awesome concept. Sam suggested a fawn shoot some months back with pieces from Hysteria machine- I jumped at the chance! and I was not dissapointed

Samantha! You are an awesome lady! She not only made TWO white walker outfits last minute due to a mix up in comms, but sat there like a trooper for hours being painted (along with her lovely other half) had talk completely caked into her hair, stood in super speedy wind and got completely submerged in ice cold water.

This girl rocks! book her.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this stunning, artistic crazy cat lady! He face is TO-DIE-FOR and her eyes are literally breath taking. She not only arrived on time, she even grabbed a fabulous jewellery designer at the last minute. She is very very versatile and has the most alluring look. She is a super kind and polite person too which can be a rare find in this industry.

I adored working with her and would gladly recommend her (and her lovely other half)

Lovely, down to earth girl and a pleasure to work with :) so easy going and went with my ideas and instincts with the different make-up looks. Beautiful model, I recommend her to anyone and would work with her anytime!

This wasn't my first time working with Sam, I keep going back because she is just ace! She organised the shoot with a designer who she models for often and it was perfect. I showed up, threw some creativity around and Sam did the rest! Brilliant model, incredibly creative, and super easy to work with. Thanks Sam!!

Samantha is a great, down to earth, lovely and kind lady, and a great model! She didn't need direction, being a natural at movements and expressing the emotions required. Samantha was painted for around 4 hours, and was patient throughout. Her beautiful eyes are striking blue. I would highly recommend shooting with Samantha... you will not be disappointed!

I'll break up Stu's references with one of my own :)

I worked with Sam on a project based upon tortures in hell. She had to depict a sinner being eaten alive by maggots. Sam was incredible, she didn't complain, (even when we tipped a bag of soil over her), was very professional in her approach to the shoot and didn't even wince when I hung a maggot off her lips.

Sam is a great versatile model with an array of wigs which suit her incredibly. And on top of all of that, she is one of the nicest people and really easy to get along with.

I would recommend her to any photographer wanting a creative, fun, collaboration.

Thanks again Sam!

Alright, I'm hogging her now! 4th shoot. Bit tricky as the weather was crap, but as Sam was fully made-up as a fawn; complete with self-made headress, then we had to go for it. I had my kids in tow (which was handy when Elena found one of Sam's lost nails), and we wandered around Bute Park in Cardiff, being stared at by all and sundry as Sam climbed onto standing stones and into trees. She's just ace!

The thing with Sam is: she is SOOO creative. She comes up with these concepts that blow you away. She comes up with the goods too. Her styling is always spot on and her make-up is immaculate. This was my third shoot with Sam and we have our fourth tomorrow!

Superstar! Sam is one of my faves. She comes up with great ideas, and puts her heart and soul into them. I will shoot whatever Sam wants, whenever she wants it. It's always great fun, and love the results.

Had my first shoot with Sam today and it was a real pleasure. She met me in the centre of Cardiff and we headed for Bute Park for our shoot, a short distance away. Sam came very well prepared, complete with strawberries..! We had great fun whilst we captured some lovely images and had a nice chat along the way.. A really lovely person to work with and I am looking forward to working with Sam again soon. Highly recommended..! - Thanks Sam a real professional in the making..! x

Star! Did a doll/candy shoot with Sam. She provided: wig, wardrobe, and VERY high quality make-up. She played the part fantastically well. Gorgeous vivid blue eyes! Would definitely recommend Sam.

Hello I'm Kev

Samantha was a pleasure to shoot with. She was full of ideas before the shoot, communication & planning were top notch on her part before the shoot. On the day it was very cold but Samantha was still able to demonstrate a range of poses & was more than happy to experiment. Samantha takes direction fantastically well & is full of ideas. Highly recommended.

It was a pleasure to shoot with Samantha :) She's got the talent, skill and enthusiasm to do really well with modelling work. Due to an unfortunate mishap with a memory card we had to do a re-shoot, luckily she's very patient and understanding so eventually we ended up with some great results. Like a pro she was very focused during the shoot, she understood the concept well and nailed every shot and gave a lot of variety. Highly recommended!
