An Eye for Beauty

I have been aware of Samara as relatively local, with shoots under her belt from other photographers whose work I respect, so I was delighted at the opportunity to work with her. Samara is great fun, and the first thing I noticed about her was how tall she is, so much so that one outfit I brought along was much too short! Fortunately she had a good range of costumes in her case and we were happily able to work through quite a number of these. Although she has a good number of modelling years under her belt, it was difficult to remember just how young she is, but certainly mature in attitudes, enthusiasm and work ethic. I look forward to selection and editing, and certainly she and I were both happy with the shots as they appeared back of camera. She poses with ease and produces a good range of expressions. I would recommend Samara, and no doubt our paths will cross again.

An absolute pleasure to host Samara at my studio for our first shoot together. Comms and preparation were top-notch, and she produced an extremely impressive fashion wardrobe from a remarkbly small case!

In front of the camera Samara's experience shows through, and we got a whole sequence of sets and outfit changes covered in just 90 minutes. Samara has oodles of energy, a fabulous look and can really work the light. With the merest bit of direction and back-of-the-camera feedback we soon had plenty of good shots in the bag! And a ton of great conversation and laughter in the gaps, so a perfect shoot all round :-).

Highly recommended. Look forward to the next one.

Beautiful Wedding Location Shoot

Had an absolutely wonderful second shoot with Samara.

Easy pre shoot comms. Due to maintenance/building work, not the location I originally planned but ten times nicer and so lucky with the unseasonable fabulous weather.

Ready on time. Brought everything discussed and then some. Perfect hair and makeup.

Beautiful, elegant, fun, lovely smile, interesting, intelligent and lovely.

A very positive and upbeat person, excellent people skills, a joy to be around.

Switches from fun and chatty to pose ready as soon as the camera is pointed at her. Flow poses with ease, needs no different, simply a joy to work with.

Kept coming up with wonderful photo ideas and always happy with mine.

Kind comments when reviewing the back of the camera.

Highly recommend to photographers of any ability. Please, please book this amazingly talented lady.

Really hope we work together again

Thank you Samara

Samara is so professional, she knows how to pose without direction at all times, is helpful when things need moving around or backdrops need changing without being asked, she is so wise beyond her years. The shoot was an absolute pleasure and I’d highly recommend her for her sheer elegance, versatility, ease of communication and you’ll be sure to get plenty of fabulous shots.

I love Samaras ‘look’, unique and attractive, definitely a very skilled model to book. Thankyou Samara! X📷🙏X

Book Samara! You should definitely book Samara!

We started planning a shoot six weeks ago but had to fix a distant date and hope that the October weather would allow us try out our plans.

Samara is wonderful young woman, full of energy and enthusiasm. She has been modelling since childhood and knows exactly how to switch poses and engage with the camera. She arrived early at our shoot and was completely prepared with a choice of outfits and perfect make-up.

I talk way too much on photoshoots but Samara was very kind and even said that she's known some photographers who actually talk more. She's just that sort of person - fun, considerate, interesting but completely professional.

We got some fantastic photos in quite challenging conditions (strong sunlight). It was an absolute pleasure working with Samara and I really hope we get the chance to arrange something again. 100% whole-hearted recommendation!

What a shoot!

Samara and I had been talking via PP. for a while following my casting. Her pre shoot communication was all that you could require. She was accommodating when we had to change plans as the location access road was closed by the council.

Samara bought a collection of clothing, which was prefect for the location we used. Samara is able to pose both with and without direction, as well as being patient while I was setting lighting up.

I know we will be shooting again and so, a very definite recommendation from me. The images from this shoot are just fantastic

I was excited to do a shoot with Samara and every single moment exceeded my expectations and aims.

As soon as I met Samara I felt her incredible dignity, elegance and grace, her beauty simply overflows….

As we chatted, her ability to communicate well with maturity, wisdom and intelligence was clear. What a joy.

I always leave my decision for a choice of outfits late and decide about an hour before a shoot when I can intuitively feel what will work and again, the outfits that I took along looked phenomenal and all fitted her well.

Samara has a unique and extremely beautiful look, she looks after herself so well, she is very healthy and knows how to look after herself physically and mentally. Her boundaries are very healthy for a young lady and a Lady she really is. I have raised grown up daughters myself and Samara has the same impeccable etiquette and morals as I have raised my own with, she is truly adorable.

Samara is superb at posing and moving without any direction at all and this really is a delight, even when I had fussy moments and particular ideas it was as if she could adopt my wishes before I finished expressing them, she is a true professional in the field of modelling.

I haven’t uploaded the images yet as I have not had chance but I cannot wait to do so as these images are simply captivating….slightly different than I’ve seen of Samara but in the style I felt was right for our first shoot.

This young lady has everything necessary to take off and be well known as a sought after model and I would be the first to promote her.

I could have carried on with our shoot for hours longer had darkness not have fallen.

Our next shoot will be in my studio and already I have ideas and plans. I can’t wait until next time…. I’d recommend Samara to any photographer or agency that are looking for a top class model capable of versatility and able to work without direction. First class. Thankyou Samara, you’re a beautiful soul and we captured this in your beautiful eyes and in all of the images.

Hope to see you again soon. 📷🍂❤️

Today we did an outdoor shoot at a fairly busy location. Samara was as enthusiastic as ever and totally unfazed by the numerous spectators. One little girl was rather taken taken with her appearance in one of the outfits we used. Samara also coped admirably with a stiff and rather biting wind.

Thoroughly professional and great company - the perfect model!

What a great honour and enormous pleasure it was for me to shoot with Samara this afternoon. In fact, it was one of the most enjoyable shoots that I have had in the 34 years that I have been a photographer. From the moment we first made contact, everything was absolutely first class so we were well prepared for today.

We were both on time at the agreed meeting place and Samara was ready in her first outfit. The time it took to drive to the location just flew by as we chatted (and Samara kindly guided me to the woodland we were to shoot in) and once there, Samara was straight to work.

It was a privilege to watch a true artist at work as she simply flowed from one great pose to another. I hardly had to give any direction (and that which I did was taken extremely well) as Samara really is at the top of her game and knows what poses and angles give the best results. We got through a number of outfit changes - which took mere seconds to complete - and several sets all within a short walking distance of the car park until, all too soon, it was time to wind things up and leave.

This was one of those shoots that I just didn't want to end. Samara is fantastic company, polite, friendly, intelligent, extremely hard working, naturally talented and so many other superlatives. Her wealth of experience and mature attitude make it hard for one to remember that she is so young.

To sum up, I cannot recommend Samara too highly to all reliable photographers. She has the ability and work ethic to go as far as she wants to in the industry and I cannot wait to have the honour of shooting with her again.

Thank you so much for the shoot today, Samara. I feel privileged to have been a part of it.

This was my first outdoor shoot of the year and we used a location that was familiar to Samara from her childhood. As I have come to expect, Samara brought some carefully-chosen and fully appropriate outfits and guided me to to some great spots to use. As ever, she was bright, enthusiastic and contributed some great ideas to the shoot.

Samara is now my most worked-with model, with 38 shoots so far, which should say something about the regard in which I hold her as a model.

Another first class shoot with Samara where we both had ideas we wished to create and I think that we did that and beyond what I was expecting.

I wished to use the pool and Samara got in without a scream ha ha as it was warm also with no rush to get out allowing me to change angles and flower positions

I just love it when we work together as we have a good laugh and stay relaxed not rushing around.

A must add model to any portfolio.

For this shoot I wanted to try out some different lighting styles, and Samara was really keen to model for me. Upon arrival she was fully prepared with hair and make up perfect and a good selection of outfits, and was as full of bounce and enthusiasm as I have come to expect. It was a bit longer than our recent shoots have been and on a stifling hot day, but Samara coped superbly and we produced some great images, as always.

Looking forward to our next shoot, which we have already booked!

Second time lucky due to the weather and it was well worth the wait as this was our first time together.

Pre comms were great with ideas exchanged and mood board approved well in advance of the shoot.

Samara turned up well ahead of time from her long journey to Caldicot Castle with the agreed outfits and her hair make up looking perfect. The weather was ideal for natural light shots and the images we got are outstanding.

She is a very talented model, needs very little if any direction when working, her ability to provide many types of poses was literally second to none.

Samara has a great sense of humour and personality but most of all very professional.

Highly recommend this young lady and look forward to hopefully working with her again in the future.

Thank you

My third shoot with Samara where I wanted to use some new costumes by my wife. I knew Samara would turn up on time this time with a different hair style for the shoot which fitted the style so well.

We worked our way through so many changes not only in costumes but also sets.

Samara is a pleasure to work with such a polite young lady and for my style the perfect model.

I will know who to call on as a local model, highly recommended for any portfolio.

Samara is an absolute gem and great fun to work with. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her.

For our third shoot we wanted to try something a little different. Fareham Studio gave us lots of opportunities with a mix of settings and lighting options to challenge our creativity. We had discussed lots of ideas and Samara was well prepared for every situation, including a set shot in the shower at the studio (which can be quite a challenge).

Even taking some time to discuss each set, and allowing for the necessary set up of some colour gel and gobo lighting, we had a fun and hugely productive shoot. Another shoot is already being planned.

Knight Vision Photography

My second 1-2-1 with Samara who I booked to help create some ideas I had. Samara turned up in plenty of time again with hair and makeup done ready to start our shoot. This was on short notice so we just had a quick chat on my ideas which she was happy about.

I showed her a few images I wished to create and she adapted the pose to perfection.

Again a very professional young lady who I'm sure I will be working with in the future.
