I recently shot with Simon and it was wonderful! We shot on location for 4 hours which seemed to just fly by as it was a fun and relaxing shoot. The images from the shoot are truly phenomenal! Communication before and after the shoot was brilliant.

I look forward to working with Simon again in the future and i would highly recommend him :)

I had a great time shooting with Simon at Centre Studios, we had very clear ideas about what we wanted to shoot and Simon did a fab job of getting those results. We did three very different sets and he managed to make the lighting etc fit the genre. I would recommend Simon to models of all levels of experience, you are guaranteed to have a very enjoyable shoot and get some images to boast about. His editing was super super quick too.

I have now worked with Simon twice, during photoshoots organised by Exposure Events. I have always found Simon brilliant to work with. He has creative visions of what he wants to achieve, whilst also being happy to listen to ideas, his communication is excellent and he is easy to get along with. He showed me back of the camera images throughout and I was always excited by what I saw. The results from both shoots have been brilliant and been a standout addition to my portfolio. Highly recommended and hope to work with each other again in future! Thanks Simon!

Can't wait for the next time dude!

I worked with Simon on the Viking themed shoot for Exposure Events. I really liked Simons working style. Very professional yet relaxed at the same time. I felt it was easy to share ideas and flexible with setups. I would definatley work with Simon again and I would be more than happy to recommend him to you. Great work Simon! Lovely to meet you 😊

I had my First shoot with Simon at the Archemy Bar in Middlesbrough, a 20s Themed jazz bar, which was perfect for our 20s Themed shoot.

Simon works very proffessional and wants his work to be perfect. As it shows on his pictures, they were brilliant. Loved the shoot and did not even know about this bar.

As Simon likes themed shoots I am delighted to try another shoot with him in the near future.

Thanks

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting and working with Simon for the first time yesterday and i look forward to hopefully many more productive shoots.

A lovely, friendly person with a great attitude; very enthusiastic about his photography, passionate about the more creative styles, eager to learn, happy to collaborate and open to themes and ideas.

We were chatting like old friends from the get-go, i received a lift to and from the station which was much appreciated and i felt comfortable and relaxed throughout.

I'm thrilled with the first shot that i've seen and i look forward to seeing more.

Highly recommended.

I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Simon on a recent fashion shoot. He very kindly picked me up and drove me back to the train station and looked after the team very well. Not only is he passionate about photography he is also a lovely person and made the shoot fun. The raw images look fantastic and I can't wait to add a few of the edited ones to my portfolio.

I look forward to working with him again.

My first shoot with Simon hogben was fantastic, it was 'Bonnie and Clyde' themed with myself and my photographer. There was good communication leading up to the shoot, he managed to get use of a vintage bar in Middlesbrough for a few hours for us. He was cheery, laid back, and new exactly what he wanted from the shoot. He showed me the images on the back of the camera as he was taking them. He provided biscuits and was on time! (Actually early) I highly recommend Simon, he takes his time, his editing is fantastic (I received a handful of edited images the same day) great guy, extremely professional and I could not recommend him enough, we've already planned our next shoot!

Thanks for a great day Simon.

I have just finished shooting with Simon at my house and i can honestly say he was a pleasure to work with!

I unfortunately had to cancel our first shoot but he was very understanding and happy to reschedule and im sooo glad he did as i really enjoyed the shoot.

He made me feel at ease and was great with direction, as im fairly new to modelling. Simon's a great guy with a great attitude and he clearly knows what hes doing.

He's also extremely efficient and already sent me a couple of shots which i LOVE!!!!!!

I would definitely recommend him and i hope i get the chance to shoot with him again sometime

Well I don't know where to start, what a fantastic guy to work with. Simon could see I had a vision and creative ideas and instead of trying to put them aside he really let me take a lead in the areas I wished. He worked so hard to enable the shoot to turn out the way we had visioned. He can fully understand what you are asking for and requiring and will try to support that as best possible. I will hopefully be booking a number of other shoots and projects with Simon. Thanks Simon

I had my first shoot with Simon today at my house, he is a lovely guy. I had a meeting with him before the shoot to make sure I was comfortable and to go over ideas. He is extremely professional and fun to work with. I would highly recommend him and I am also looking forward to working with him again, as we have lots of cool Ideas to shoot.

Had a second shoot with the wonderful Simon at my home yesterday!.... As usual all comms were perfect & he was very understanding of my recent troubles! :).... He arrived early and bought even more bits and pieces with him including some awesome props!...

I shot with Simon a few days ago and right from the beginning he was determined to get some amazing shots and he certainly didn't disappoint. He really put alot of effort into the shoot including location etc and the shoot was amazing! Had so much fun with him and the other models and would definitely recommend to others. Thankyou☺️

Symeon went above and beyond when organising the 1930s themed shoot I was a part of. He gave great direction and was very outgoing and easy to get on with. I can not recommend him enough. Very focused, professional which resulted in a great relaxed shoot and some brilliant shots.
