After trying to nail down a date through the chaos that is my life we finally landed a day that worked for us. Shelbie had so many ideas it took a good while to come to conclude what we were going to shoot. Once we got together and started shooting it was a breeze. Shelbie is fun and really enjoyable to shoot and even pushes herself to do some stunts I wouldn't.. she is a joy to shoot and lovely company as well.

Second shoot with Shelbie. 🙌🏽

We spoke and swapped ideas pre-shoot, really nailing the concept . Shelbie brought a few dress with her and we got to shoot in a freezing river. She absolutely smashed it, really engaging with the mood.

Had a lot of fun shooting and already planning another shoot in the near future. I would 1000% recommend working with Shelbie. She brings so much passion, enthusiasm and energy to the shoot and creative process ❤️

I had a really fun day shooting with Shelbie for the first time at @rococo farm, alongside her friend @mariah s.

I responded to her casting call and over the build up to the shoot her communication was excellent. She shared her motivation for shooting, her ideas and possible outfits, and we had a very good plan coming into the day what we were going to do which was really helpful.

On the day she brought loads of carefully selected options and we shot four very different sets, including a milk bath set where Shelbie bravely took the plunge first! Each set flowed well, with Shelbie thinking carefully about each pose. She was patient in trying different lighting and angles, and happy to try different ideas, including having some of the cold spare milk poured on her in the bath.

She created some lovely images and I'm really pleased with how the day turned out.

She's thoughtful, totally professional, engaging and a pleasure to be around.

Highly recommended and look forward to shooting together again.

I had the pleasure of shooting with Shelbie, she also arrange for another model for the shoot which was super awesome.

I would recommend anyone and everyone to work with her.

My second shoot with the amazing Shelbie. Pre-comms were great - including the journey to the location which required her to negotiate a bomb scare on the way - and she still arrived early! An absolute trooper!

Shelbie arrived with a variety of outfits and nothing was too much trouble as she patiently waited while I faffed about with some new gear and setups. I recommend shooting with Shelbie if you get the chance.

Such an amazing model.

After speaking for so long we finally booked a shoot.

We shot using a vintage medium format camera and despite the limitation sheilbie was incredible, not missing a single beat. She was able to pull off and hold every position I asked of her despite the scorching heat.

So happy with the results and would recommend her to others.

A great woodland walkabout shoot with Shelbie. She arrived bang on time with a variety of outfits (and a pop up tent for changing!) and not phased by the threat of rain (it was drizzling when we arrived). We proceeded to have a few hours of relaxed wandering, making the most of the subdued and moody lighting. Loved the atmospheric images we created together. Recommended.

I had the pleasure of a second shoot with Shelbie yesterday, she came with her partner and a friend, also a model, Maz.

We'd discussed themes and looks and the ladies turned up as planned and well prepared for everything. We achieved most of what we intended but were a little limited by the steady rain, we did manage to pop outside in odd dry spells though!

The time flew past, outfit changes were simple and fluid... All in all, a fantastic shoot with two great models, I recommend both of them!

I did my 1st ever duo shoot with Shelbie and as a newbie model I was nervous. She helped calmed my nerves and our ideas bounced off of each other. We had an excellent time together and can't wait to see what we will come up with next!

I would recommend working with Shelbie 100%

Shelbie came up to Watford after I had cancellation. She turned up on time, exactly to when we agreed. She had great pre comns and kept me inform of where she was. She also brought with her all outfits for our themes! Her posing was good and expressions were brill! Shelbie’s personality was friendly & we got on very well!

Well worth working with Shelbie! Thank you for travelling from Portsmouth to Watford! 😊

My first shoot with Shelbie and it was a joy.

Shelbie responded to my casting call (also my first) and pre-comms were great.

Shelbie was relaxed, easy-going and chatty throughout, needing minimal direction from me and we got some lovely shots. I look forward to working with her again.

My second shoot with Shelbie and it was, as usual, very chill. She was very professional and required minimal direction.

Highly recommended

We seem to have been forever getting this shoot together, something always seemed to put a spanner in the works! Plans finally came together last week...

Shelbie is a lovely young lady, very easy to photograph. We ended up staying in the studio as time was precious and the weather various! Shelbie arrived ready to go, we'd already chatted shoot plans so found it very simple to get started. Shelbie came with a great wardrobe bag that fitted our plans exactly. Ideas flowed easily, Shelbie has a very bright mind and we fed from each other.. As an added bonus, I also got to photograph Ash, our chaperone, a budding new model. I'd love to work with Shelbie again is she'll have me? I definitely recommend her!!

My third shoot with Shelbie, this time at West Wittering beach, was as joyful as the previous two.

As ever clear pre-comms and a keen appreciation of the style I wanted to shoot. She was on time at our rendezvous with her excellent make-up already on and an array of good outfit choices in her bag.

We had a great three or so hours despite me marching us around the beach to find the best spot and waiting for the light. I look forward to the next shoot.

Had my second shoot with Shelbie yesterday and it was really great fun as always! Shelbie is such a great model to work with and so enthusiastic on shoots. Even though this shoot was arranged at short notice, her communication before was excellent and she had some amazing ideas during the session. Can't wait to see the photos!

Had my first shoot with Shelbie today and she was great! Very relaxed and easy to work with. She was more that happy to be directed and to contribute her own ideas.

Highly recommended

This was my second shoot with Shelbie and it was as good as before. Pre-comms were excellent so we were able to crack on from the off. We shot at Shelbie’s home which gave us access to her complete wardrobe and she made some good outfit choices for the style of shot I was looking for. The results were exactly what I wanted. Hope to work with her again.

First shoot with Shelbie after one previously had to be rearranged. Great comms beforehand on ideas and Shelbie arrived on the day with loads of outfits to choose from.

Managed to get quite a few styles in and Shelbie was confident posing as we shot.

Very easy to get on with and had an enjoyable shoot. Would definitely recommend

I shot with Shelbie for the second time recently. We'd been trying to arrange something for over a year, conflicting work schedules and the pandemic getting in the way. We planned a sunset beach shoot, but the weather did not play along so we had to improvise. We shot on the beach and on the sea wall in old Portsmouth, and came up with some really good images! A mix of fashion/portraiture and some more atmospheric stuff which was great fun to do.

Shelbie is great to work with - she's enthusiastic, takes direction well and is easy to get on with. Highly recommended!
