I had a brilliant second shoot with Simon recently, who booked my last studio day slot at Studio at the Stables. Simon is a complete gentleman. Very professional, respectful, friendly, considerate and has a great sense of humour. The images I have seen so far are wonderful. I really enjoyed working with him, and would happily do so again :)

I had an awesome shoot with Simon, AGAIN! polite and professional man who was a pleasure to work with Simon at Sandon studios this time! It’s always a pleasure every time we work together! We worked through a range of styles, lighting sets and poses making great use of the space we had. I’d highly recommend and very much look forward to working together again to create more amazing images!

Simon booked the last 2hrs with me at Studio Fifty Eight and I can honestly say I wish it was longer.

First time I had shot with Simon, just wish we had shot previously. Between us the ideas flowed and Simon took some stunning shots.

Very respectful and made sure I was always comfortable.

Highly recommended by me.

Thanks Simon

I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Simon for the first time during my studio day at AURA Photographic yesterday. Simon is professional and respectful and I had an overall fantastic time working with him. Simon is friendly, polite, easy-going and he made me feel comfortable throughout. We worked at a relaxed yet productive pace and he gave me great direction but also allowed me to pose freely and give input too. The images I saw on the back of the camera looked amazing!

Highly recommended by me and I would love to work with him again in the future.

Had an amazing shoot session with Simon Hales during my Studio Day at Studio Fifty Eight. Prior to shooting pre-communication was excellent and I knew exactly what themes and concepts we were going to cover.

On the day we had an awesome shoot and shot so many themes and concepts from fashion to lingerie and Cosplay too.

Time flew by and we had a really productive and fun shoot.

Simon also kindly gave me a lift after the shoot which was much appreciated.

More than recommended!! Lovely person & photographer!

After what felt like years chatting and wanting to work together, we finally made it happen!

Simon booked me for two shoots over two days and it was honestly a pleasure from start to finish. Simon is an absolute gentleman, respectful, great company and easy to talk to. As well as all of that our styles were very well matched and we got some stunning images over the two days. He is very tasteful and creative with his photography and captures models so beautifully (as you can see from his port!).

I 1000% cannot fault Simon and would happily recommend him to any model, new or experienced. Really hope that our paths cross again in the future as I would love the chance to work together again.

You could not meet a lovelier person 😊

Thank you again!

I shot with Simon again at one of my studio days at Studio Fifty Eight.

Once again he was an absolute pleasure to shoot with! I have shot with Simon a couple of times before but I really saw how his confidence had come along on this last shoot.

Simon is friendly, easy going and very easy to work with. We managed to capture a range of images and got some lovely results!

Simon is always super sweet, respectful and makes sure the model is happy/comfortable :-)

Recommended as always!

I hope to shoot again soon.

Big Shot Studio

It is always a pleasure having Simon at the studio. Simon is a fantastic and enthusiastic photographer who always manages to get some really amazing images when he is here. He recently shot Dottir here and worked his way through a variety of different sets with some really fantastic results. Simon is always professional and totally respectful in the studio, he is a genuinely really lovely guy who is friendly and very easy to get along with, and I can wholeheartedly recommend Simon to models and studios. If you work with Simon you are guaranteed some beautiful images and a really good shoot experience.

I have shot with Simon a few times now as he is kind enough to book a slot in every studio day I have. We always manage to work together perfectly to create some amazing and beautiful images! Simon is by far one of the best and most loveliest photographers I have met in my time of being in this industry and I will continue to work with him forever:) thank you Simon for a lovely experience always x

Angel Black UK

I recently had the pleasure of working with Simon during a recent studio day at Studio Fifty Eight. It was booked as a tutored shoot alongside J Black Photographic, and between us we captured some truly wonderful images - the back of camera shots looked amazing!

Simon's knowledge of his camera was extensive, and he was more than happy to try different lenses at John's suggestion, including changing settings etc with ease. Simon was polite and professional throughout the shoot and definitely someone I would happily work with again in the future.

We worked our way around multiple sets and in each area he faced a new challenge which he was more than happy to take on! He was attentive throughout and didn't hesitate to ask any questions he might have had, a true joy to work with.

Thankyou for a fantastic shoot!

Team Black

We recently met Simon during a tutored shoot at Studio Fifty Eight and from start to finish he was a joy to work with. He arrived on time and was raring to go and was polite and professional throughout, a true gentleman.

He took our advice on board and was happy to implement it throughout the shoot, asking questions and for clarification if needed, which showed super initiative!

Simon's knowledge of his camera was superb and he didn't have a problem adjusting settings at our suggestion, often thinking to change them before we had even mentioned it.

We had a fantastic shoot and definitely wouldn't hesitate to recommend Simon to fellow creatives.

Thankyou for a fabulous shoot!

J Black Photographic

Simon booked me as a tutor alongside model Angel Black, and from start to finish his pre shoot communications were excellent. He detailed roughly what he was looking to learn from the tuition which helped me to better prepare for the session. It was out first visit to Studio Fifty Eight, but Simon knew the studio and was able to choose his favourite areas to shoot. He was attentive throughout the session, happily making mental notes of what I suggested, as well as implementing them throughout.

He had good base knowledge which we built upon during the shoot, ensuring he went away more confident with natural light. We started off moving through a variety of sets using natural light before finishing with studio lighting/artificial lighting and he showed superb initiative throughout all sets.

I'd happily recommend Simon and it was pleasure to work alongside him.

I had such a wonderful few hours with Simon at Aura studio!

We shot some classic art nude shapes on a box and also got super lucky with the natural light streaming through the large windows there and took advantage of that :)

Simon was a really nice guy, respectful and easy to talk to!

I would more than happily recommend him and I hope to catch up again soon!

I worked with Simon last month.

To say I hadn’t shot with a new photographer for a very long time Simon was very polite made me feel comfortable and had lots of good conversations.

The pictures he took were lovely and captured the right moments! I would recommend working with him definitely, and look forward to working with him again in the future. :-)

Georgia Brown

I’ve had 3 shoots with Simon over the past few weeks at my various studio days down south and I honestly could not ask for a better man to fill a slot and work with - we always have such a relaxed fun time when shooting - rearranging to space we are in and creating, just, stunning images! Always look forward to working together again, Simon is certainly highly recommended by me!

🎞 Kempston Studio [Studio Hire, Bedford] 🎞

Another couple of visits to the studio this weekend for Simon and what else can I say, a true gentleman who shoots some lovely images and all the models love him.

If all photographers were like Simon then the world would be a better place for all in the industry.

Totally respectful to the models Georgia Brown and Bethany April and a fantastic way to finish a three day marathon.

Totally Recommended by me (and I'm guessing the models).
