Simon picked up my last minute casting call, and it was a pleasure to work with him. I would recommend him to anyone and hopefully we get to work together again 🙂🙂

Just had my first shoot at Purepreston with Simon, I had an amazing time shooting with Simon, he is very approachable & makes you feel relaxed in the studio which makes it a lot easier to enjoy! Simon provides good feed back inbetween shots/sets & gives guidance during the shoot. I look forward to working with you again soon.

I had a great shoot with Simon this week. He's such a professional and he taught me so much! He listened to my ideas then improved upon them with his own take and eye for the perfect shot.

It was a pleasure to work at the studio which has so much to offer with space and light.

I highly recommend Simon to any models and I look forward to returning to the studio again soon.

Much fun had :)

Simon applied to a last minute casting I put out and booked me on my last trip to the area, I got to shoot with one of his regulars for an hour then had 2 hours shooting with him too :)

His studio is gorgeous! Really beautiful natural set up and natural light galore, the only shame was we lost the natural light throughout the 3 hours with it being an evening shoot.

Already booked in for a weekend later in the year and can't wait to go back :D

Highly recommended!

Another Fantastic shoot with Simon this week & we produced absolutely amazing images!

Simon organised a group shoot for me at his studio which was a big hit :) but Simon & I shot before hand.

Simon & I work well as a team always creating perfect images.

Highly recommended by me 10/10 guy

2nd shoot with Simon & had another brilliant shoot!

Simon & I get on extremely well & always have plenty to talk & laugh about from start to finish :)

I think it's important to have a great rapport with photographers & we definitely do.

Pre comms perfect as always & some new sets in the studio which is great - he is always keeping the studio fresh & updated.

I look forward for our plans for future shoots!

Great studio & great photographer I would 100% recommend!

Thanks you & cant wait to see the images!!!

Had a shoot with Simon yesterday. He's an amazing professional photographer who know how to get the best result out of the photoshoot, also really knows how to work with lighting. Made me feel relaxed and enjoy every minute of the photoshoot . I would highly recommend Simon to any model who wants to have a fun time while getting professional images for their portfolio. Thanks, Ginte

I met Simon a couple of weeks ago when he asked me to do a club night at his studio in Preston. We then arranged another shoot for today. I arrived and as expected I was made to feel welcome and comfortable in the studio with a well made cup of tea on arrival! Simon has a lot of different ideas and is creative with props, colours, themes and lighting. We went for a new look for me which was natural light as the studio has an amazing space to get natural light shots. Again, I was very impressed with the turnout of the images. I am happy to do another shoot with Simon as he is friendly, chatty and professional. Would defo recommend!

I had a shoot with Simon for the first time today. Simon is a true professional and easy to work with. Communication was very good beforehand and during the shoot. The studio is an amazing space and Simon knows how to use the light. He provides great direction if needed and knows what he wishes to create. Simon is fully open to ideas and listens to input from models.

Sorry if I gave you earache Simon today!

I would highly recommend Simon and also the use of his studio and would work with Simon again x

I had my first shoot with the lovely Simon today.

He was very professional and friendly and the space he has to work from is amazing. He knew exactly how to work with the natural light and gave great direction and advice when needed.

The shoot flew by and it was a pleasure to work with someone so amazing at what they do.

Thanks for a great shoot!

I had a great shoot with Simon, we got on really well had loads to talk & laugh about. He's really laid back & easy going but above all professional. I would definitely recommend to work with him & I would quite happily work with him again.

The Studio is fab, tons of space & natural light - so if you're a photographer looking for a great space to work this is it.

Thanks for a fun day in the cold lol

Had an amazing shoot with Simon. He has so much space to work in with different backgrounds and so many props. The studio had amazing lighting, the professional level was perfect. Simon himself was a great laugh plenty to make me feel relaxed and we could speak for hours about everything. Thank you for a fantastic shoot. Can't wait to work with you again soon.

Met Simon at his fashion show and was keen to shoot with him after seeing how fabulous his work was. Gorgeous studio, brilliant work and a pleasure to shoot with. Has a great personality and is probably prettier than i am. Highly recommended, will deffo meet up for more in the future. Book him!

I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Simon today at his Studio in Preston "Pure Preston " shooting mainly fashion styles.

Simon has a great deal of knowledge in photography and is fantastic with ideas for particular shots. The shoot went quickly but it was one of the best and most enjoyable shoots I have done in a long time, simply because Simon is a lovely genuine and laid back person with a professional attitude with his business and photography.

His communication was fantastic too.

I very much look forward to seeing the images from today (which I know will be great) and also hopefully working with him again before I move back North

I couldn't recommend simon highly enough.

During a studio day I stepped in on at last minute due to a model cancelling at short notice, I got the pleasure of meeting and shooting with Simon. Albeit a brief shoot, it was none the less well thought out, Simon is very experienced with lighting so was already planning the setups prior to our little shooting. He works quickly and effortlessly through sets and doesn't waste time taking hundreds. He gets the shot and then moves on or if it doesn't work again he moves on.

I found him to be very friendly and down to earth, polite, a fantastic host, respectful of my wellbeing and very professional.

The studio (PUREPreston) is absolutely incredible and a credit to his name. If you haven't been you really should! Tons of potential there.

So would I recommend Simon? 100% yes

Would I work with him again? Definitely

Thanks again, and looking forward to January

Me and Simon shot together for the first time on Thursday, excellent pre shoot communication made for easy shoot prep, Simon has great directional skills and I was at ease throughout, such a lovely chatty genuine person the time flew in and I really enjoyed our shoot, the studio itself is large and spacious but still warm, best in the area by far for natural light definetly my personal favourite studio in preston. Looking forward to planning our studio day.
