Shelly was nice enough to host my studio weekend for me! We shot together as well and did some fashion that was a little different for me, which is great at helping my diversity as a model. He was also lovely enough to allow me to stay with him on my trip and make me comfortable. I recommend working with him and in his studio space if you get the chance!

Had my first (of many, hopefully) photo shoot today, with Shelly at the X factory in Stoke on Trent. I had a really great time with Shelly, he is very creative in his ideas and is very easy going professional, amazing location and he is relaxed and easy to work with, he has already sent me some images over via Facebook, and very pleased with what he has done. I saw many of the images he took on the back of his camera, and I am really excited to see the rest!

I would definitely recommend Shelly and the X factory for new and established models!

Really looking forward to working with you again soon 👍

Big thank you!

Had my first shot with Kevin today at Xfactory studio. What can I say... wow what a fab time I had. Kevin is a great guy to work with, very professional and knows exactly how to work with natural light. He works hard to get the perfect shot and makes you feel at ease at all times. We shot for 3 hours and the time just whizzed by but we managed to get through a few sets. I could of easily stayed longer without realising the time as there was so much we could have done. Kevin is easy to get on with and preshoot communications were great. Can't wait to see the final images after seeing what we had shot on the back of the camera. I would highly recommend working with Kevin if you get the opportunity and I hope we can shoot again in the future.

What can I say...amazing.

Kevin and I had a shoot over 2 days and it was fantastic. His wardrobe suggestions and ideas are brilliant and use of natural light always astounds me. Always love his ideas and even ventured into the woods again on a chilly day. Kevin gives great direction but always allows me to "free style" so the shoot just flows and the images he has shown me are stunning.

I highly recommend working with Kevin if you have the opportunity. A fantastic photographer and super person too.

Thanks again Kevin.

Shelly is an efficient and great photographer

I did a shoot with a male model at the x factory

The images we produced are dreamy but edgy

And the most natural looking images I have so far

His sense of humour is ace

I was made to feel very comfortable

And we all worked together brilliantly given the time we had and managaed to get through all the images as discussed 🤗

His knowledge of light and the light at the location is phenomenal and I would Defo recommend hi. For a shoot of any genre ❤️

i have known shelly for two years on facebook but we havent met until now, we wanted to work with eachother for ages and i have been busy. Shelly is very bubbly, friendly and alot of fun. his work is a work of art, i love how he captures his subject. the x factory is a wonderful setting of an abandoned building but has alot of space to work with. he is very professional and always make you feel welcomed.

The shoot I feel went great...I was my feeling 100% so shelly was very patient with me...I really enjoyed the shoot and look forward to seeing the results ...Cheers shelly xx

Shelly is a great photographer for several reasons.

He has a Solid knowledge of lighting, my bright eyes and dark skin pose challenges for many but Shelly was up to that challenge

His focus is the comfort of the model or models which makes one feel relaxed and happy.

Shot a few times now or so. Constantly improving so the next time we shoot we constantly bring new things to the table its brilliant.

Very easy to get along with helps everyone in involved. Chatty, insane pictures. Need to give him cookies.

Kevin and I have been planning this shoot for what seems forever. Finally our day came! He came to my place and was instantly snuffling about looking for light! Kevin brings a unique perspective to a place and we shot in different areas of my house where he found light where others haven't. It was great and I learnt loads working with him.

He is good company and easy to work with. He's respectful and professional and I'm really happy with the images we produced together. I recommend him without reservation and hope that I can work with him again.

THanks Kevin

I had a shoot with Kevin last Sunday 3rd June. Pre comms were excellent and we knew what we doing for our shoot. Kevin arrived in plenty of time bringing a smile and enthusiasm.We had a quick chat over a coffee and we were soon getting into the swing of things. Kevin was soon moving furniture around getting the best possible angle for each shot which he has captured beautifully. I`m really pleased so far with the images and can't wait for the rest. Many thanks again Kevin for a cracking shoot.

Recommend Highly x

I booked a shoot with Shelly after he answered a casting call of mine, I'm so glad he did. I also had no idea that he had previously shot with my cousin Natasha so he gets extra kudos. The location was perfect and I got a bit of a history lesson too. Shelly was professional, fun to work with and I can't wait to see the pictures. It's an A* for me.

Elegant Eve

Well what can I say...AMAZING.

After a couple of months in the making I had the pleasure of working with Kevin today.

A very fun and relaxed shoot. Kevin's direction was fantastic, we shared ideas throughout the shoot and the results are amazing, much more than I hoped for.

Kevin is professional and down to earth, so working with him was incredibly easy and he always made sure I was comfortable even putting up with my giggles.

Kevin's preshoot comms were brilliant.

Can't wait to shoot again and a huge thanks for an excellent day and making "work" so much fun.
