Totally professional, marvellously experienced and adaptable and a fabulous, humorous and interesting person to spend a few hours with creating some lovely photographs. The time flew and and we achieved some stand out shots. Shiv was super easy to get along with and posed effortlessly and to great effect. I would absolutely love to work with her again. She raised my very modest talent to another level just by being in front of my camera.

This was my first shoot with Shiv and her first trip to the Swindon Studio. Pre-shoot communications were good, so we had an outline shoot plan in place and Shiv arrived early with a good range of outfits to wear.

We worked our way through our plan changing backgrounds, lighting and outfits as the shoot progressed. Shiv is fun, professional and very easy to work with so we were able to shoot a wide variety of images from a formal dress to just a towel and some Baby Oil via jeans, tops and lingerie.

We both enjoyed the shoot and agree that we have a good set of images to show for it.

Highly recommended!

Having had a shoot cancel last minute Shiv agreed to step in and I’m so glad she did. What an amazing model. Confident, creative and great fun to shoot with. The pre shoot comms were great and we had a clear plan going into the shoot. Shiv had several outfit ideas ready and waiting. The time flew and we created some amazing images. I would recommend Shiv without hesitation and look forward to shooting with her in the not too distant future.

Shiv arrived at the right place at the right time. She's capable confident and consistent, a very attractive lady.

The shoot was a hair and bridal shoot with hair done by a professional stylist. Shiv needed very little direction and was innovative in finding different angles and lighting. The dresses fitted beautifully and we achieved the objective.

I have no hesitation in making a recommendation and I would like to work with her again.

Shiv is a fabulous girl. Very good looking, immaculately turned out, impeccable dress sense to match her tremendous figure, and all natural. With a great sense of humour, what more can one ask. She knows exactly how a lady ought to dress and lives up to it 100%.

After excellent pre shoot communications she arrived on time and camera ready with her hair and make up done to perfection. Wearing an elegant stylish dress and high heels to match, I knew from the first click of the shutter that Shiv would be a first class model to work with, and she was in every respect, nothing was too much trouble for her.

Professional and business like throughout she deserves the very highest accolades. I can only add that if you are an experienced or professional photographer, Shiv will exceed your expectations - BOOK HER NOW !

An awesome shoot with Shiv, who has an amazing attire, attention to hair and make up that’s second to none, and a complete pleasure to work with. Vey highly recommended and already looking into diary dates to book our 2nd shoot!

Excellent comms suggested that this was going to be a great shoot, and so it proved.

Shiv was beautifully prepared, with a range of outfits and areas of her home ready to shoot in, and with a thoroughly professional focus brought to bear on each set we worked on.

Shiv is elegant, stylish and versatile, with a keen radar for what may work and what may not; she worked hard to achieve the style of images that we had discussed, always contributing ideas and posing with ease, with and without direction.

Most of all, Shiv has a lovely personality, making conversation easy which in turn created a relaxed shoot which flowed from image to image, set to set, and time just flew by. Always the sign of an enjoyable shoot. Shiv also makes first-rate tea!

I’m delighted with what we achieved, and look forward to hopefully working with Shiv again.

Highly recommended. A shoot with Shiv is guaranteed to be both productive and fun.

An excellent shoot.

Pre-shoot communications were really good, prompt, informative and we could quickly agree shoot styles, looks and outfits.

The shoot itself flew by. Shiv is great fun to work with, poses very well and works hard to ensure that the photographer gets the images that they want.

No hesitation at all in highly recommending Shiv :)

I was really fortunate that Shiv agreed to a shoot with me - my first every model shoot. Pre-shoot communications were excellent. Shiv was highly professional from start to finish; and patient and helpful as I practiced shooting with different lens and settings. It was really enjoyable and I very much look forward to arranging another shoot before too long. Many thanks indeed Shiv.

It's always great to work with Shiv. For the first part of the shoot, I wanted to try out some older cameras and lenses, including manual focus, that I don't normally use for shoots. Shiv was very patient and good-natured as I fumbled around in unfamiliar territory. The remainder of the shoot was a normal session with familiar cameras, and we got some great shots. Pre-shoot communications were excellent, as always. I can happily recommend Shiv to photographers of all experience levels.

I had my second shoot with Shiv yesterday, pre comms were great and some fantastic images were obtained. Shiv has a great personality, she is fun and easy to work with and is totally professional in her approach to the shoot. Nothing is too much trouble with ideas flowing between us, Shiv strives to produce great images which we definitely managed to achieve. We discussed ideas for our next shoot which is on the cards in the near future. Highly recommended.

Shiv’s pre shoot communication was great, she arrived on time and we had an enjoyable morning shooting in the Forest of Dean.

I really enjoyed working with Shiv, we got on great, she really got the look I was trying to achieve and we produced some really good images.

Thanks Shiv, I look forward to working with you again soon.

Thoroughly recommended.

Shiv was one of two models booked to work with me on a commercial shoot for my masssage therapy business, She arrived super early to follow on which made such a difference to the flow of the day. She brought great character and charisma along with her fantastic look and was simply a pleasure to work with, she was totally professional which definitely supported the shoot theme. I recommend her without reservation.

Another great shoot with Shiv yesterday. Shiv arrived super early to get prepped for the shoot and had a great attitude throughout despite trying something relatively new. Shiv is a great pro and provided the client with exactly the range and style of looks required. More than happy to continue to give Shiv my highest recommendation and I would be more than happy to work with Shiv again.

My experience can be summed up in five words:"I love working with Shiv". She has a lovely personality, excellent communications, thoroughly professional attitude, a willingness to try things and a great sense of humour. All these factors contribute to a fun and productive photo-shoot. I will certainly be working with Shiv again and I highly recommend her to photographers of all experience levels.

This was my second shoot with the lovely Shiv, and it was even better than the first. During the shoot, we tried some boudoir work, an area that I am not very experienced in. With the help of the patient and totally professional Shiv, I managed to get some shots with which I am very pleased. Shiv is very inventive and has a great personality, which all contributes to a fun and successful photoshoot. Her pre-shoot communications are flawless. I would very highly recommend Shiv to photographers of all experience levels.

I had my first shoot today with the fabulous Shiv, and what a delight it was. I can see why other photographers think so highly of her. Shiv has a wonderful personality and is utterly professional, taking direction well, but also coming up with loads of ideas that improved the shoot no end. She arrived on time with a variety of outfits, and her pre-shoot communications are excellent. very highly recommended.

Had another superb shoot with the incredible Shiv yesterday.

I love working with Shiv, she is a wonderful lady with a great sense of humour. She is so professional, happy to work with my ideas as well as having great ideas herself. She puts 110% into everything, even when the good old British weather tries to get in on the act. I highly recommend the wonderful Shiv and am already planning another shoot. Thank you so much for a great day.

Worked with the beautiful Shiv on Thursday at her wonderful home. I have worked with Shiv on different projects and always have a great time. She is a fantastic lady, such fun, easy to work with, very professional and always comes up with fab ideas for us to try. We did a mixture of fashion, boudoir and swimwear and her home has lots of natural light. I highly recommend Shiv and cannot wait for our next shoot. Thank you so much for a great shoot.

I had an utterly superb 3 hour shoot with the wonderful Shiv last night. The shoot was all about gel lighting and Shiv was absolutely brilliant and had loads of patience as we changed the set up to try different scenarios and especially as the studio was so hot it could of been an oven. Shiv is a truly fantastic lady, easy to work with and nothing is to much trouble. She also works extremely hard to make sure you get the shot your aiming for. I highly recommend Shiv and already have another shoot planned. Thank you.
