Worked with shawn for the second time, professional lighting and a lovely spacious studio, whether location or studio shawn works well with the model and makeup artist to achieve stunning photos...

He is patient and is more than happy to look through outfits and accessories and help choose something appropriate. Really happy with the finished photos as usual.

Shawn is a great photographer, you can tell this just by looking at the images in his portfolio. He's creative, very good with his lighting and knows exactly what he wants before shooting. He's friendly, down to earth, chatty and overall a great guy. I would highly recommend shooting with Shawn, you wouldn't be disappointed and the results would be fab.

I had put out a casting looking for a photographer to get some new images for my portfolio and Shawns portfolio jumped out at me and I decided to go with him, I am so glad I did! .

Shawn was friendly, welcoming and a great photographer with excellent knowledge of everything and even edited some images between wardrobe changes. Was not only a good shoot with amazing results but I also had fun and enjoyed myself.

I would recommend him to anyone wating to work with him, and I hope to work with him again, thanks Shawn.

I worked with Shawn at his studio, Scarlet Door, on a studio day. Not only was Shawn an amazing host and awesome fun to work with, his pre and post shoot communications were fantastic. Shawn really helped me to 'push' the day and it was a resounding success, everything ran so smoothly. At the end of the day we finally got to work together and he got some absolutely brilliant pictures! (Shawn also has excellent taste in music!)

Shawn is kind, helpful, fun and lovely - also an awesome photographer! Highly recommended!!

Thank you for everything Shawn! I really appreciate all of your help!

Assisted Shawn on a disney princess theme shoot, doing the make-up. He is a great photographer, really friendly guy and everything went smoothly, didn't take long at all for Shawn to get the lighting right. Was good at directing the model, would definitely work with him again!

I had a very messy but fab shoot with Shawn at the weekend. Very creative and the results are amazing. 100% professional, His studio is great and he was well prepared for the mess from the paint we used. I really hope I can shoot with him again as I thoroughly enjoyed the whole shoot. I would highly recommend working with Shawn

Shawn is an amazing photographer with a keen eye for lighting, perspective and simply captivating images. He is a wonder to shoot with, a really nice guy who is really lovely to chat with. Highly recommended.

His pre-communication is spot on and his arrangements with everything are comforting and reliable. I love all my images from him, it is always tough to pic which ones to put in your portfolio! I hope to shoot with him again :)

I had a great time on the last day of my "UK Tour" with Shawn and Heather at the Scarlet Door in Bracknell! We ran through every look and concept I had in mind for a latex designer, everything Heather needed for a jewelry company, and then topped the day off with some art nudes. Shawn was genial and professional throughout, and overall just great to work with. I am looking forward to seeing the results of our collaboration!

I had a four hour shoot booked with Shawn yesterday at his studio in Bracknell.

Shawn had a few very specific ideas to try out and we wanted to try and shoot something a bit different to the usual work I do- I think we hit the nail on the head and got some really strong images indeed! :)

Shawn's pre comms were great and the shoot was organised quickly and efficiently. He was also kind enough to offer the studio to use after our shoot.

Shawn was great to work with, friendly, chatty and was happy to hear my suggestions too. I hope to work with Shawn again! :)

I don't use purple port much so some of you won't know me

I shoot for 2 Glamour/commercial Agencies

Girl Management and Mode London

I have had work published in Bizarre/Zoo/Zoo Australia amongst other places

I don't take myself that seriously at all but I take my work very seriously.

I pride myself in trying to produce the best I can....

So when I offer training to my friends I want them to feel the same. That they can be the best they can be.

Shawn has a great friendly loyal outlook to his career as a photographer and I admire this greatly. When he arranges a shoot the passion is unsurpassed, Shawn does have a great eye and a keen understanding of modern photography. He also is very keen to continue to progress soaking up new knowledge like a sponge. You would not be disappointed to work with Shawn .. and his studio aint to shabby either ... check out scarlet door well work a look :D

What a fantastic shoot I had with Shawn! Firstly a really lovely studio and clearly much thought has been put into making it a great place to be for a shoot, a bit of an Aladdin's Cave for models :-). Shawn was very friendly from the start and made me feel very relaxed, a great guy. We bounced ideas off each other and the results were brilliant, a wonderful photographer. I cannot wait for my next shoot with Shawn and we have already been talking about what we would do. I would definitely recommend a shoot with Shawn.
