Karl joined us today for his very first virtual shoot and it was a joy to have him with us. After talking on social media for a long time I already felt I knew him even though We’d never actually met and all be it virtually it was lovely to put a face to the name. A lovely, friendly guy who has a clear passion for photography. A joy to work with and I do hope to have the pleasure again in the future 😊

I worked with Karl at a recent natural light spaces shoot and after much pre shoot communications we decided to focus on sheer fashion, dancer poses, art nude and beauty headshots but the main theme was to just go with the flow and see where our creativity could take us. The shoot was full of laughs and good conversation and I found it effortless to work with this photographer because he’s super open minded and easy to be around; so thank you for going along with my crazy ideas! We ended up nailing some amazing poses and images and it was a great atmosphere to experiment. Thank you for being the perfect gent and can’t wait to shoot again!

Karl and I had our...many-th shoot recently! He made the brave move of booking me for an entire day at NLS, his first fullday shoot ever! We have been discussing how to fill that day for ages, Karl came up with a detailed shoot plan full of fun and unusual ideas and we got everything sorted out in advance -he also sent over reference images for some of his concept sets which was helpful :) Karl is always good fun to shoot with, he is considerate of the models as well and I had plenty of breaks for food and drink (coffeeee!!) and respectful of levels etc as ever. I look forward to shooting with Karl again, and have no problem recommending him to other models. Thanks Karl! :)

What can I say about Karl?

Well, first of all, I haven't laughed so much in a shoot!

And the second - this fellow is awesome :)

He has a fantastic way with the camera and comes with epic ideas that are wonderful to put into practice! Karl is ever so respectful and made sure I had snacks, green teas, couldn't have been more of a gentleman.

I can't recommend this lovely photographer enough to all models, he's an utter joy to work with - he truly is :)

This was my first shoot with Karl, as part of my duo studio day with Darren S. He was easy to work with and had a lot of unique ideas for the shoot which made the entire process a lot of fun. We flew through all the sets he had in mind and the shoot was very enjoyable. I would definitely recommended him :)

This was my first shoot with Karl at the Light Space Studio on Sunday. I found him great to work with, working through his quirky ideas, using the hoop on the ceiling.

I'm working with him again shortly, so I look forward to that.

Highly Recommended.

Karl caught me last minute and what a wonderful last minute shoot it was.

Karl is so easy to work with and lots of fun, we had a lot to work with so threw in so much and had a productive few hours.

Work with Karl and you will not be disappointed :)

Karl came along to shoot me at a lighting workshop at NLS, along with a group of 5 others. We shot a wide range over the half day, from portrait to art nude and also some aerial. We also coined a term for a new level "flashion!" :D Karl is good fun to work with, and was a real help to us running the workshop too, among other things acting as my hoop orientation specialist AKA "ring wrangler" for the day. Karl is a star to work with, definitely recommended by me :)

Belle Eve

I finally managed to work with Karl this weekend after a long time planning and trying to work out dates we were both around.

Well... The shoot went super well. Karl has some superb ideas, some a bit crazy but all great fun just the same.

I highly recommend Karl, a wonderful photographer and a super chill guy.

Much love,

Eve

Karl is just lovely ... I worked with him again during a 60's weekend at natural light studio... Karl booked myself and Belle Eve for a duo shoot and came with some really cool ideas....

We shot some macro sort of duo work and we got some absolutely stunning results!.... You always have a laugh working with Karl, shoots are always comfortable and relaxed as well which is always a bonus...

I know Karl is taking a break from his model photography, but I do hope that he comes back to it because he has some awesomely kooky ideas... but it always a talented photographer!...

Always lovely to work with you Karl!

Take care!

Karl and I shot again at night time at NLS with the primary aim to create some 'bad Willow' images (a la Buffy) :) We also covered spinning LED poi and some victorian bridal ghost goodness! Karl is fun to work with, our shoot was very experimental but Karl takes input and suggestions really well and was great fun to work with. I would be glad to shoot with Karl again and would recommend him :)

Me and Karl booked a last minute shoot up at Natural light spaces in Northampton.

I forgot how much fun he was to shoot with as it has been a while!

His work has seriously come on in leaps and bounds and his eye for a great shot is just getting better and better.

We had great conversation and he made me laugh many times as well as catching me laughing on camera the barstard Wink

Highly recommended, lots of fun to work with and a lovely guy.

Hope to work with you again soon!

This bloke is one of the good guys and seriously awesome!

Karl booked on to my studio day Natural Light Spaces last Saturday about a week before the shoot asking for the last slot, I asked if he would be kind enough to drop me off at the station near him, and his response was most unusual he said “nope I’ll drop you off at the door” as I was going to staying at another photographers. What a diamond!

Pre comms were brilliant totally to the point and beautifully written out so I knew exactly what needed to be brought for the evening, Karl arrived early and was full of life ready to shoot. I’ve never met someone who’s so laid back as well as enthusiastic :)

In our two hours we got through some awesome sets of lingerie, beauty portraits, big ball gowns, and then finished off the day with a one shot of a bucket of water being poured over my head for an excellent wet shoot!

One word really that suits Karl MAD, I love that he’s more than capable of shooting pretty portraits and shots of the norm but that he challenges himself with doing the weird and wonderful.

Already seeing some awesome shots, and I’m happy to say that we got the water shot so it was well worth it hehe

A huge thanks from me for the ride and going out of your way for me, its greatly appreciated. So of course Karl comes very highly recommended by me and I look forward to being a willing victim once more :P

I finally worked with Karl, after talking about it for a while! Karl was professional at all times and had lots of different ideas he wanted to try. The shoot was filled with laughs as Karl is easy to get along with. I recommend him to others and hope to work with him again :)

Another bloody awesome shoot with Karl during my weekend visit to Natural Light Spaces!... This was a pretty last minute arrangement! But we had a rough plan, we'll both turn up and see what happens!

I love shooting with Karl, this is the 2nd/3rd time (I can't remember actually), was an absolute giggle and we always produce awesome shots!....

Always recommended!... A really talented photographer and kind/hilarious person to spend a shoot with!

See you again soon!

Excellent shoot today with Karl! This was our first one on one shoot, and he was well prepared with an outline of looks, a MUA & costume/accessories. We had loads of laughs despite a few paint related issues, but we worked around it. We shot several sets indoors & outdoors, & I think there are loads of great images! Karl was very friendly & professional - I definitely recommend him! We are already planning our next shoot! Thanks Karl! x

Carmen V

Every shoot with Karl gets better and better! He is a professional and fun photographer to work with! We had great pre-shoot comms for his sets, and we had a blast shooting around the awesome NLS spaces. Karl has a great eye for interesting pictures and we always have a great time working together! We created some great images and had lots of laughs! Always a pleasure Karl! Unit the next shoot! 100% recommend working with Karl - an awesome & professional gentleman! Thanks! xx

I met and worked with Karl for the first time on a bodypaint shoot at the NLS. Unfortunately due to various reasons, the shoot didn't go quiet to plan but Karl was still professional and friendly. Hopefully next time will go without hiccups! :)
