A while ago I tentatively asked Wayne about some training.

We exchanged emails & chatted on the phone - and it became clear to me that Wayne might provide just what I was looking for. We eventually managed to arrange a date.

A day with Wayne is an investment. If you're open-minded and willing to listen then it might just change the whole way you approach photography; what you shoot, how you shoot it and how you present it.

Such a day is highly recommended for anyone looking to get more out of their work, no matter what level of technical ability you possess.

I've wanted to work with Wayne since, well forever! Today that fateful day came and I have to say I am thrilled.

It started with great communications and an elaborate mood board showing me exactly what sort of clothes to bring and what mood to convey.

On the shoot itself, Wayne and his partner Liz were lovely, always thinking about my comfort and both warm and friendly people. The locations that they had scouted were fabulous and so inspiring.

As a photographer, Wayne gives great direction but not so much that poses look forced or awkward. He communicated his vision well and worked quickly.

The images on the back of the camera looked brilliant and I can't wait to see the final edits.

I hope to work with him again in the not too distant future :) Hugely recommended.

After following his work for a few years this weekend i had the opportunity to work with Wayne. Pre-comms were great, and Wayne was kind enough to collect / drop me off back for my buses home.

The shoot was absolutely fantastic. Wayne and his wife Liz were very accommodating, made me feel right at home and it was a lovely relaxed atmosphere.

We worked through a number of ideas that are quite different from the usual styles I model. The images we produced looked so cool and I can't wait to see the final edits. Looking forward to organising our next shoot together.

Wayne and Liz are some of those people that I love to visit - the shoots are great, the conversation is great and it's fab to put the world to rights over a few hours, plus the food is always super yummy ;)

Shooting with Wayne is easy, he has such a high standard for himself and I always know we will get great images.

Super highly recommended, and I really need to get down there again this year - if you'll have me ;)

Anther great shoot with Wayne a few weeks ago. I enjoy shooting with Wayne as not only are you really well looked after, but you always get different shots. I always learn something about posing from Wayne also.

I hope to return again at some point this year

Very highly recommended

Completely off the cuff and WAY out of my comfort zone, this was always going to be an interesting shoot :) But the images speak for themselves, so a HUGE thank you to Wayne for pushing me right out of comfort zone for this, and teaching me a whole new way of shooting again... Awesome shoot and amazing hospitality..

Would I do it again.....you bet!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Dear Wayne, Liz and Oli! I already miss that weekend we spent shooting together! Everything was fantastic! The way you looked after me, delicious food, the warm bottle and blanket while you were shooting me on location , real quality coffee, your sweet cat!!:)

I discovered myself from new perspective, it was seriously educational time for me not only about modelling but also about Art and photography visions! So happy I had this opportunity to meet you guys! I can't wait to see finished images, it was enough to understand from the screen of computer that they are truly amazing!

Big massive thank you, Wayne and Liz ! I hope to see you soon and work with you again and again! Xxx

I had the pleasure once again of working with Wayne for a fashion editorial together while I was back in the Bournemouth area.

Wayne is an extraordinary professional, jointly talking through the clothing, shots and looks we wanted to achieve. We were able to use some great locations, with Wayne giving excellent direction, allowing us to create some brilliant images.

All together it was fantastic experience collaborating with him once more, I can't wait to see the finished results! If you want to improve your skills or portfolio, make sure you take the opportunity to get involved with this fantastic photographer, a true artist!

Wayne deserves every award he has earned and more, I cannot compliment this man enough. Truly an honour to have worked with him; his creativity and genuine passion for photography means the images he took of me portray me in a way I didn't even know I was capable of. Cannot wait to see the final images and will leap at the opportunity to work with him again!

***** Recommend to all *****

Wow what can I say..Wayne is just brilliant. He bought out a different side of me that is not normally portrayed in images that I produce. Wayne is extremely creative and knows what he is after and how to capture it. From what I saw the images are amazing, can not wait to see the final results. Hope we can work together again soon. A definite recommended to all. Thank you for an enjoyable day.

I shot with Wayne early last year and had a great shoot! Everything was very easily arranged and organised and upon arrival him and his wife were really friendly and welcoming.

We shot several concepts and ideas and Wayne really brought out my more creative conceptual side from the ideas we shot, his lighting techniques are amazing, and his talent as a Photographer is amazing.

Highly reccommended.

Will be working with again next time im back home in Bournemouth

Thank you Wayne

I had my first shoot with Silverlight, I hope it won't be my last!

We arranged a short notice shoot, so I travelled to his beautiful home studio for a few hours. From what I saw the images look bloody amazing! I'm absolutely over the moon with them and can't wait to see the final edits.

Silverlight is down to earth and laid back, gives brilliant direction and has serious talent!

Hope to work with him very soon!

I had the great pleasure of working with Wayne for the first time this weekend. He contacted me with regards to a workshop he was running and I jumped at the chance as I had been wanting to work with him for some time. Wayne and Liz very kindly let me stay over on the Saturday and Sunday and I was looked after exceedingly well.

It was my first time doing a workshop, but Wayne made me feel at ease, and it was great fun. We then had the opportunity, in the evening and on the Sunday morning, to do some of our own stuff. I think we got some fab images and they are all different from each other.

Wayne was fantastic company and is a great photographer - I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Thanks again Wayne and Liz for a fab weekend :)

I have shot with Wayne several more times since our first two days two years ago. A great photographer and a true friend, an absolute delight to work with and know.

The results speak for themselves - if you have the chance, shoot with Wayne.

Wayne is one of my most favourite photographers that I've worked with, its not often you come across a photographer who has a charming personality and produces images to blow you away, I truely mean that. Modest, enthusiastic, completely grounded yet published all over, with awards to prove it!

Thanks :)
