Weather for this shoot was very windy and a bit rainy - but we made it work!

The wind definitely added some much needed DRAMA to some of the pictures

Michael was very encouraging and complimentary throughout the shoot and let me have free rein with outfits and poses (theme was "colourful alternative").

Michael managed to capture each outfit perfectly

It's going to be hard narrowing down which images to use on socials!

Would definitely work with him again

Thank you Michael for an amazing shoot! Loved the experience, and the glitter idea was so good! Micheal was fun to work with, knew exactly what he wanted and gave good direction, lots of ideas before the shoot and excellent clear communication.

Hoping to work with Micheal again on a mental health project, he is creative and a genuinely nice guy to work with!

Highly recommend.

Thanks

Shot with Michael recently and it was so fun. He’s a lovely guy and I’d been admiring his work for quite a while. I’d wanted to shoot together for ages! I felt really comfortable through-out the entire day.

Literally the best way to start the year was collaborating with him. 🤘🏻

Highly recommend.

I had my first shoot with Michael yesterday and despite the freezing January weather, I HAD SO MUCH FUN!

He showed up on time, was so creative, really chatty and sweet! He sent me many messages to keep me in the loop and even included a pinterest board for ideas to make sure we were both on the same page!

I would definitely recommend him as a photographer and would enjoy shooting with him again in the future.

Fantastic photographer!

It was my first time shooting with Michael and he was really easy to chat and work with. We played a little music and the whole thing was relaxed and a lot of fun.

It's also great to meet someone who gives direction where needed to get the right angles for a photo! Makes a massive difference.

Definitely recommend. 💕

I had my first shoot with Michael and honestly it was an amazing experience. I was nervous at first, but Michael was a great person to work with.

Michael is amazing at giving direction and he is very patient and ensures that the image turns out great. I love that he spends his time getting each pose to look outstanding.

I feel confident to work with Michael again in the nearby future. The photo results were quick, beautifully edited and outstanding.

I highly recommend this friendly and professional photographer!

Thank you for a cool shoot!

So i had a home studio shoot with Michael and can i just say first of all wow. Pre comms were amazing, he gave full details of what was needed and everything i needed to know a few days before. We met he instantly made me feel comfortable such a cool guy he then offered me a drink and we got too it. We worked with glitter body paint and i worked a nude level not once did i feel uncomfortable he made sure of that, the shots were great and our ideas just bounced off of each other his home studio is awesome and we created some amazing images all in all i had an amazing shoot and was honored to work with Michael i left happy as hell on the edge of my seat waiting for the images 😂🙌🏻 HIGHLY RECOMMEND i hope to work with him again very soon
