References for Sinopa Rin

Atomic Photography

I've admired Sinopa Rin's work for a long time but didn't think I'd get the chance to shoot with her given our respective locations, I made reference to my desire to shoot her on one of her posts and before I knew it we'd agreed a date when she'd be in the area.

Rin is a dream to shoot, she poses effortlessly and takes any guidance offered with barely a word required. Pre shoot comms were fantastic and Rin brought two outfits (amongst many) that were perfectly suited to two of the themes I'd discussed with her. Rin also happens to be a photographer so when I wasn't happy with how a couple of my images were lit she worked with me to suggest some enhancements which took the images to a new level.

Having booked Rin for half a day I had decided to bite the bullet and shoot some natural light/outdoors. I wasn't expecting much as I usually shoot in a studio but again Rin gave me a confidence boost and I captured some beautiful elven inspired images.

I can't wait to edit and share the images I took and wouldn't hesitate to recommend or indeed work with Rin again in the future! (she makes a pretty good cup of tea too)

This fantastic model doesn't need a refrence from me but I was so impressed with her when she came to work with another tog at my studio today I just have to add one any way. It's such a pleasure when a truly professional model comes to my studio and Sinopa is definatly right up there with the best of the best.although I wasnt working with her every thing about her from being on time for an early start on a Sunday right through to make up, styling, posing and outfits was top class. She is very professional and a lovely person as well highly recommend by me to all togs of all levels. Thanks Sinopa it was a real pleasure having you in my studio.

Once again another great shoot with Rin. We have worked together many times in a group shoot environment but this was the first 1 to 1 shoot that surprisingly I have had with Rin. This one was in a boutique hotel.

Rin always comes well prepared with fabulous makeup and clothing. I had made some suggestions to her beforehand and I brought along some props and my trusty 'ideas' sheet. Although the hotel room was a little small and warm on the day we both made the most of it and came away with some fabulous images.

Rin is so easy to talk to and very knowledgeable on what works and what doesn't image wise. She is great at posing herself and is very happy to take direction. And of course always photographs so well!

We had a fabulous and productive three hours shooting and look I forward to our next one together. I can't recommend Rin highly enough!

For around 18 months I'd been trying to arrange to point my camera at that Sinopa Rin! Unfortunately up to this point for one reason or another it hadn't happened, but it has now...and it involved getting into a lake to do it!

Due to circumstances out of our control our schedules never quite matched. However when I found out our friends at AURA Studio had Rin coming for a shoot in a lake at a private estate in Suffolk, I thought it was well-worth making the journey for!

The location was awesome, and our model even more so! Quick changes, fabulous outfits and poses that were effortless and elegant were never in short supply. And when it came to actually shooting in the water with her, the lady herself was just awesome and pulled out all the stops for some absolutely breathtaking captures!

I have to admit, it was a fan of Rin and her work before now...but now I'm even MORE so! She is fantastic company, looks incredible, extremely down-to-earth and is absolutely phenomenal at what she does! Hopefully I'll be talking to her shortly about a few ideas and projects, but I'll count the sleeps until we can work together again!

200% HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

This last Sunday I found myself sharing a lake with Rin. One of us looked elegant and serene whilst the other floundered around trying to make some photographs - no prizes as to who was who!

It was all part of an evening lake shoot hosted by Aura Studios.

I've worked with Rin a couple of times all in vastly different locations and circumstances and each time she is simply sublime. Elegance personified. Such grace with her poses and was able to deliver time and again for each photographer on the shoot.

Obviously very highly recommended.

I absolutely love working with this beautiful and talented lady. She's a bud and I call her Ratbag but you can call her Rin ;)

We took over Thurston Lodge for the hottest day of the year (at the time) ... and totally rocked it ... even straying into some latex too (which got wet and messy in the heat).

Everything is just so damn easy shooting with Ratbag ... you get a really collaborative feel to a shoot, which I thrive on. We've shot more times than I can remember ... and every time was a classic.

Ratbag is not a modelling experience to be missed, so get her before she retires!

an absolutely mahoosive RECOMMENDATION from me :)

cheers Ratbag, you're the best :)

Sinopa was friendly and helpful, and tolerant of moments when I needed to set-up equipment. Also aware of lighting conditions and framing of the shot, and offered occasional hints where appropriate.

With over 500 positive references I doubt I'll be saying anything new, so I'll join the many and say I've also had a fantastic shoot with Rin.

Pre-shoot comms were excellent, and Rin arrived all ready to go hair and make-up done, and with a great selection of clothes.

One of the many highlights of the day was capturing Rin's gorgeous natural smile and hearing her say 'Ooh, I like that! I don't normally like my smile, but I like that'! :)

Thanks Rin, it was a pleasure - hopefully we can shoot again soon.

This was the second time this year that I have photographed Rin on one of her and Andy Gaden's (Fareham Studios) regular themed shoots. The previous one had a 'Circus' theme with once again Rin nailing the makeup. We managed to get two FPI's from that shoot!

This recent one had 'Summer' as the theme and again with the help of Andy and his sets we had a very enjoyable four hours. As always Rin came prepared with ideas and fabulous makeup to make the afternoon fly by.

Rin is always professional, fully prepared and moves from one setup to the next with such ease. She always looks good and moves from pose to pose easily but is happy to take direction if preferred. She is interested in seeing what you have captured and is great at giving feedback on which ones she prefers. This is a great help I feel and is much appreciated by me anyway.

Rin is great company being chatty and fun and gorgeous to boot. I don't think I have ever taken a bad image of her as she presents herself and photographs so well.

I have photographed her a few times now and I'm looking forward to photographing her again very soon.

Thoroughly recommended by me.

I had the pleasure of working with Rin this Sunday gone on a floral shoot and came away very impressed indeed not only at her skills in creative make-up (I'd brought gold leaf, gems, pressed flowers, the lot!)but also fluid poses and helpful advice with camera angles and lighting. Rin is lovely and bubbly and above all a consummate professional and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her to others or working with her again before the year is up. Thank you my lovely, :-)

Rin's very first visit to the studio, and on this occasion she came with the amazingly creative Lizzie Stanbury shooting her trademark floral-based creativity.

I was fascinated by the preparations, but felt entirely comfortable leaving them to get on with creating magic.

The place was left in perfect order, very tidy, and I would like to sincerely thank both Rin and Lizzie for taking so much effort to make sure that was the case.

Most definitely highly recommended. Please, please come again.

I had my first shoot with Rin yesterday and it was an absolute pleasure. As to be expected, she was professional and came with a range of outfits as per what we had discussed and was full of energy ready to shoot despite the awful weather. Because of the rain my shoot plan had to be changed short notice and Rin happily went with the flow and the more ad hoc location which I had selected. We got some great images and would work with Rin again.

My third shoot with Rin was on location with SamJaz and Evie. Rin is a consummate professional and works hard to ensure the very best images and as usual I came away with some great shots. Thanks again Rin, superb as usual

David Austerberry

Had an excellent group shoot with Rin, along with SamJaz and Evie. Great location but challenging lighting as the sun came in and out and rain threatened. No fazing the models, as we shot around the location, a Victorian pleasure garden.

Rin is a really easy model to work with, a would definitely choose to work with her again.

Due to work I unfortunatly missed the chance recently to shoot Rin whilst she was local to me so I made the trek to Portsmouth. It was definitly worth it. Rin knows some cracking local locations, including rusting boat hulks and paddle-able rivers. I know nothing like this near me, so the trip was worth it!

We shot fashion making use of these locations over the four hours, getting some stunning colourful shots, making use of the natural colours provided by these locations as well as Rin's excellent wardrobe choices. Plus she happily stood in a river!

Despite the long journey I had a great day and walked away with some fantastic images. Rin is such a lovely friendly person to work with and for me this really makes a difference on any shoot as they're much more relaxed. From a model like Rin as you'd expect she was filled with brilliant posing and naturally does her makeup to a high standard.

Thank you Rin, hopefully we will get the chance to shoot again in the future.

Sinopa Rin gave me a beautiful make-up for the duo shoot with Gemma Marie and Carl Grim as a photographer.

Sinopa is very friendly and also professional as a make-up artist as well. I thoroughly enjoyed being made up by her and thankful to Sinopa.

Sinopa is a beautiful model, great make-up artist and awesome lady!!!

Thank you very much!!!

I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity Sinopa gave me to come shoot her and learn about Studio lighting/photography. Sinopa couldn’t have been more helpful, professional and pleasant, a great tutor and I learnt so much in those 3hrs!

With her help and advice on the lighting setup, I managed to get some photos I’m really pleased with for my first ever Studio shoot. Would thoroughly recommend Sinopa and it was an absolute pleasure working with her, look forward to our next session. Thank you so much.

I have used make-up artist, Sinopa Rin a number of times at my studio and have always been impressed by her skill and professionalism.

This time her the challenge was to prepare the faces of Aya and Gemma Marie for a funky Japanese/Manga/Lolita theme to be shot in high key.

Sinopa pulled it off with aplomb.

I unreservedly recommend her as make-up artist.

i finally responded to Rin’s casting call for the Studland spring shoot and then her Burlesque event at the Hacienda in the summer, after” chickening our for too long”!

From when I first started with model photography, the advice was shoot with the best and you’ll never regret it.

Never a truer word was said in relation to this very fine lady.Comms, as to be expected, totally professionally organised.

On arrival at the Studland Bay House I was greeted by the beautifully made up Rin, even more radiant than the best of her images.

She quickly showed me round the various shooting options and then generously agreed to manage the many sets we worked through. I soon became acutely aware of her other skill, that of a keen photographer. Like with some of her peers, this additional skill is a very welcome contribution to a Hobbyist.

Her make up was exquisite, her eyes sensational , posing, and varying use of gorgeous hair, formidable experience,a dream.

Working our way both inside and outside, in sunny but cold wind, I came to appreciate the enormous charm, dedication Rin possesses, a marvellous person with whom to spend a great afternoon.

Notwithstanding my drive back to London, I came away thoroughly excited by my decision to engage with this special lady, and the prospect of more to come.

Rin, thanks so much.

I've been desperately trying to avoid shooting Sinopa because, frankly, she scares the shit out of me with her blend of epic face and incredible piercing eyes, but she mugged me at Studland and forced me to photograph her in between shoots with decent photographers. I paid her back by producing some shockingly poor images - actually, no, no shock at all as it's reflective of my lack of skill - which are so poor that I would completely understand her de-tagging herself from them.

Sinopa is the definition of 'epic' smashing the ball out of the park on every shoot she does and to top it off she's as lovely to be around as she is to look at.

Highly recommended.
