I have had the pleasure of working with Alan earlier in the year on a location shoot so when myself and chris conway decided to host a group shoot in Kent i was delighted to have Alan on board. Alan is a super genuine guy who is very respectful of the model, clearly has a passion for photography and has now shown he is great working alongside others too. A good all rounder in my eyes and such a lovely guy to be around. 100% recommended to everyone by me and i hope he got all he wanted from the shoot and hopefully i will have a third chance to work with him :-)

I shot with Alan and had a great shoot!!!

He had great ideas and welcomed my own!!

Not much I can say that others haven't but I highly recommend alan! I really hope we shoot again soon!

The pictures look great and I can't wait for our next bunch of ideas to come together!!

This is now my second shoot with the awesome Alan... after our first meeting and the way he handled a naturally lit cottage location so tactfully I was so happy when we arranged our second shoot at Joel Hicks Photographic because the array of opportunities just left us like a couple of kids in a sweet shop! We were blessed with every possible creative sunshine opportunity that day (thank you mother nature!) We had bright sun/dappled sun, soft light, pretty skies... I really do think that someone was up there answering our weather requests because we just needed to say "come on sun/bit more cloud please" and we got it! :D Definitely the Alan-Keira magic touch! Okay so the weather was rather nice, but the highlight of the day way quite literally the images and the laughs, let's face it! I was couldn't stay composed when Alana was showing me the images on the back of the camera, I just had to throw myself into a pose and he would lean, squat, shuffle of the floor... just do what he did to nail some amazing work. I really love working with Alan because I just feel like we make a smashing creative team... He just lets me run riot with all manner of creative ideas and is never far behind with his camera! :P

Some of the images we did were arty, some of the images we did had a real high-end feel to them, some of the images we did were on the suggestive side, some of the images we did told a story and some were just generally pretty! We covered every avenue that morning not leaving any opportunity sneak away and I just knew that we would get some amazing work. Alan brings out the creative best in me because he looks for an emotive and story-portraying element in the image hence putting immense amounts of effort and passion into getting the angles and composition bang on. He's a fab photographer and I've genuinely found that our styles just click like matching jigsaw pieces. It can be the craziest idea ever but between us we make it work! :P

Of course it is standard practice for us to have a whole load of fun while we shoot and nothing was any different this time around! In fact we spent most of the shoot duration laughing about something, gossiping or bouncing off each other; Alan is such and easy-to-get-on-with gentleman which makes working with him even more of a blast. I have nothing but high regards for Alan and recommend him so highly to other models... No matter where you shoot you will get amazing results but I can particularly vouch for Alan making absolute magic out on location!

Alan's communications are always fantastic, he's organised, professional in his approach and bestows outmost respect for the models he books. He is certainly a chap who fully appreciates the work models do and treats the whole creative process with uber inspired and creative courtesy. I have no doubt that we will be working together again before long having an equally awesome shoot experience and creating further wonderful images. I cannot stress just how high I recommend him.

Such an awesome guy - everything was flaming brilliant! The edits are clarifying that too! :D

Thanks again Alan!

I have worked with seetheyes countless times now and it is always such a pleasure. Seetheyes isn't just a photographer, but also a friend of mine and I have watched his photography flourish over time. He is super open to suggestions and dedicated to learning the photography process to constantly better his work - this is so refreshing, inspiring and delightful to witness! He has a real passion for what he does, and is such a gentleman. I could not recommend him higher.. absolutely love working with him, and can't wait to do so again :)

Thanks for everything! C x

I had the pleasure of meeting Alan yesterday for shoot No 2 :)

Before meeting with Alan I knew in my mind already that the shoot/day would be brilliant and it was!!

We managed to get 3-4 sets done and we both felt so pleased with what we came up with! I love working with Alan as he is laid back and relaxed - which of course is fantastic for any model and also get fab results this way :)

We managed to chat, giggle and get awesome shots in just a few hours! We did great!

I highly recommend Alan, such a gentleman and would love to make a shoot no3 :)

Shooting with Alan was a very fun and chatty affair indeed.....he is a lovely individual who has a knack making one instantly at ease, with his super friendly & charming personality/sense of humour and those choc shortbread that I couldn't stop eating!

He's got a fabulous way with the camera, constantly moving and capturing different & flattering angles, as well as using the available light in the most beautiful way, directing wonderfully and keeping me chuckling throughout the shoot....

I wholeheartedly recommend this charismatic photographer to all models, Alan is super respectful and such a pleasure to work with - What a dude :)

So happy to have finally managed to shoot with Alan! :) We sadly missed out on my first visit to Kent this year but the second time I pottered down we managed to bag ourselves a nice half day at Tim's cottage in Maidstone. Alan's style of model photography made me get straight into an enthused flow: he really knows how to capture a beautifully emotive shot and bring out the best in his subjects; we worked around the light in the cottage which is always a bit of a challenge give how quickly it can change (plus finding places to strategically place reflectors!) but nonetheless... Alan captured some really lovely images which I got very hyper over as he was showing me the back of the camera. But we're already booked in with our next shoot together in a couple of months so I must have only came across borderline-bonkers! He's such a lovely gent and I certainly give him 11 out of 10 for putting up with me that time. In all honesty, the time flew by and I felt so comfortable with the awesome rapport that formed from the word go. :)

Alan is so easy going and relaxed when shooting: he gives the model's freedom to be as creative as they like but also gives interesting storyboards to work from so the combination of the two really does get the results. We chattered, laughed, bounced off one another and generally got on like a house on fire - he is so great at delivering positive feedback as well. I have no quorums that every other model he will shoot in the coming months and beyond will have an equally lovely shoot as I did. Alan works hard to capture each set in the best light possible; his technical and creative combined skill is awesome and I have full admiration for any photographer that can persevere in an environment with tricky light and angle challenges everywhere you look.

Everything about this booking was fantabulous! The pre-shoot communications, Alan's professionalism, the ideas he brought to the shoot and the shoot as a whole. I could go on but I just want to say that I really do recommend him so highly and cannot wait to hook up again in August when we meet again for our second shoot. :) Here's so to much more productivity! Thanks again Alan, you were a real star!

I had my first shoot with seetheyes (Alan) about a week ago, what a character, I think it has to be one of my best shoots to date!

Such a kind human, we shared a passion for the industry, and I thoroughly enjoyed his company throughout the shoot,

We had great communication on the day, he was up for ideas, we did lots in the glorious sunshine that we were lucky enough to get!

We giggled lots, smiled and just had a wonderful day!

I certainly wouldn't hesitate to work with him again, and hopefully we are setting up another shoot ASAP! 😊

Highly recommended, great photographer! 👏🏻

Yayyyyy, second shoot with the lovely Al!!!! :)

It was brilliant to work again with this wonderful photographer. I need to start with the fact that Al is really organised, because he really impressed me that he came a few days in advance to scout for places to shoot in the area where we met today. We already knew where abouts to go and which places to visit and shoot from. Brilliant and thank you for that! :)

Al is a really friendly person and such a good laugh all throughout the shoot.We had a wonderful time working together again. He is always very respectful and so considerate towards his models. He also bought me a coffee, very generous!

I have the highest recommendation for him, thank you again for a brilliant day and also for being part of my project. Will surely see you again! :) Mona x

Had a shoot today with the lovely Alan and WOW what a thoroughly enjoyable relaxed shoot it was!! Although a little chilly and Alan had to persevere with my blue skin at times lol, everything went smoothly and time flew. Alan is probably on of the the most organised photographers i have had the pleasure of working with. Not only did he travel a long journey to work with me but he had already sussed the area and jotted down all areas and locations he was interested in. His pre comms were amazing and made life so easy for me because he told me ideas of styles he had in mind to shoot so packing was easy!!!

The shoot itself was fantastic, its clear that Alan has a real passion for photography and it shows when he is shooting. He is also hugely considerate towards the model, Although i was happy to wear vest tops and shorts he didnt want me to get cold and kept stopping during the shoot and even bought me coffee to warm me up :-) Alan is not only professional and fun to work with, he also has a great sense of humor and so very easy to get on with. The whole shoot was an absolute pleasure an i hope to work with Alan again in the future.

Thankyou for a really lovely day :-)

I had a lovely shoot with Alan at my home yesterday, easy going, relaxed, friendly and really easy to get on with are just a few reasons to work with Alan! He was great company (I think we could have talked all day!) Alan was super organised with planning the shoot and his pre-shoot communications were perfect.

I loved shooting with Alan and I hope we do it again soon!

Highly recommended.

Yet another super shoot with Alan a few days ago (at my place again this time)

We fitted in a lot of different themes, ideas and looks. We had plenty of time to chat and play with butterflies- which seemed to be rather interested in Alan! Haha. I was too slow in taking a photo :(

Just like every shoot we have had- the time flew and I had a great time. Alan is a lovely guy, so laid back and happy to try out my wacky ideas! We even caught some great golden hour sun in the garden! Yay!

Thank you Alan, hope to work with you again (and again) some time :)

Yesterday I had the lasted shoot with the fabulous Alan, and he bought me cream cakes so you know it went well hehe!

Alan is just a pleasure to work with, fantastic company, a good laugh and a talented and creative photographer. I love each of our shoots more than the last and we just seem to improve each time.

Alan is always on time and well prepared and he has a great understanding of light so his photos have a lovely natural feel.

One of my favourite people to shoot with, if you haven't shot with Alan yet do it now!

Thanks for a lovely day,

Alan has been so supportive towards my work since I actually joined purple port I remember... Always loving and commenting on my images, and a few times even messaging me . It meant a lot for me! And now I got the chance to shoot with him, which I was so looking forward..

We have nailed a day in our calendars (we had our first shoot at The Factory studio today) pretty quick and need to say Alan was one person who amazed me through their quick, concise and very detailed information about our shoot! Pre-communications just spot on and I loved it!

We have both arrived early today and we have been fortunate enough with lovely weather for some shots outdoors, as we obviously had to wait outside until our allocated slot for the studio. Alan is so friendly and we instantly got really well together. He is chatty and has a great sense of humor.. Professional at all times and really respectful.

His ideas can be almost as funky as mine ones! :) And the pictures looked great on the back of the camera! I really enjoyed the time we have worked together, I Highly recommend him and would certainly love to work with him again. Thank you Alan for a great shoot today! Mona :)

I had a lovely shoot with Alan the other week while I was on tour down South.

Alan is friendly, chatty, respectful and easy to get along with.

Pre-Comms were great and the time just flew by. We covered lots of different ideas and I feel the shoot was very productive.

Thanks Alan for a fun afternoon - recommended by me :)
