References for Sinopa Rin

A few months ago I had the absolute pleasure of being asked by Rin to join a privately organised photography trip to Spain in June.

Having worked with Rin previously, this was an opportunity not to be missed. The pre-comms were excellent and all those on the trip had various group conversations to discuss travel plans and ideas etc. Along with Heather May Corvid, my wife Debbie and MattB we arrived in Spain to find a magnificent villa with private pool and en suite facilities situated in a beautiful private golfing complex.

Throughout our time in Spain, Rin was the perfect host, having explored this particular area of Spain previously. We shot at ruins, sunrise, sunset, the beach, various other locations in the area and of course the gorgeous pool, all of which were ideal. Rin has so much modelling experience, shooting with her is effortless. She is an utter pleasure and joy to work with. The shoots were always different, Rin bought a plethora of outfits, making the most of the Mediterranean colours.

I only have 2 complaints. 1. the trip was not long enough, there was so much to see and photograph we could have stayed another week and 2. I've come away with nearly 2000 images, which will take forever to catalogue...! The images on the back of the camera look stunning and I can't wait to share them.

Thank you Rin so much, you really chose the right people for this trip and I shall treasure our time in Spain.

Cannot recommend this lady highly enough.

I had the pleasure of working with Rin in Spain earlier this month. It was truly magical! Rin was the genius behind the trip, organising locations and ideas. It couldn't have been better, and the images we created were fantastic. We were joined by three fabulous photographers whom Rin personally invited, and I couldn't have chosen a better bunch myself. Rin, as always, was kind, funny, professional and talented to boot! Can't recommend her enough. Thanks Rinny! xx

what can I say had the real pleasure working with the lovely Sinopa this morning, the weather was really nice to us, we were going to go on a ship wreck but I didn't bring my waders lol, but the place where the ship wreck was in a lovely port, couldn't ask for a more lovely location with the same company. we also shoot in a lovely park/gardens near by, had such a lovely morning, got some lovely images, if it is the only time I get to shoot with her, was well worth the wait, so easy to work with, no effort, we shot Casual to summer dress, thanks again Sinopa for a lovely time.

I contacted Rin about helping me with a group shoot for 5 photographers, and I couldn't be happier that she accepted. Comms were first class from start to finish, and Rin's preparation for the event could not have been better. From my initial email detailing the theme and a brief overview of the event, Rin arrived with outfits that were absolutely perfect. I doubt she would have picked better if she were organising the event herself. 'On point' is an understatement!

On the day, Rin arrived on time as promised and was just a real pleasure to work with. Happy, friendly, professional and engaging, I knew from the minute we arrived on set that the day was going to run perfectly. Our photographers ranged in differing skill levels but Rin was incredibly supportive, patient where needed and worked tirelessly to help them get the best images possible. It was such a pleasure to see how happy everyone was at the end of the day and that is all down to the hard work and talent of this fabulous young lady. I have no doubt that the day would not have been the success that it was with her.

Huge thanks Rin, really appreciate your time, professionalism and all round wonderfulness. Already looking forward to the next one! (Y)

This was my first time working with Rin and hopefully not my last. I've been chatting with Rin on and off for a few months about working together. So when I saw that she'd had a cancellation at one of my favourite studios, I jumped at the chance to work with her. From the moment I walked in we clicked. Shooting with her was effortless and we worked through several sets. I walked away with a big smile on my face and a camera full of timeless photos. I'd like to thank you for your time and I look forward to working with you again soon.

South House Retreat

Shoot here at South House Retreat again! Love having this lady here. I would recommend her to be shot by any photographer as she is just amazing, I mean come on just look at her port folio! She is a credit to any venue! See you again soon hun we hope!

The weather Gods finally were finally being friendly and I got to shoot with Rin in a lovely meadow. As always she was so much fun to photograph, beautiful poses flowed effortlessly making my job so easy to get great shots of this amazing model.

470 References says it all really. Sinopa Rin is so naturally beautiful in front of the camera making it a joyful and rewarding experience. We headed to several locations that Rin knew well and we produced some great results.

Great fun to be around and well worth the trip to the South Coast.

"Can you find me some old boats to shoot around?" I asked.

Not only did Rin deliver an amazing location but she happily trudged through some particularly smelly mud and then delivered the most incredible poses.

I knew how delightful a person Rin is from a previous shoot, so I knew that she'd make this shoot easy.

As I knew I would I have come away with some stunning images.

This was my first shoot with the beautiful and extremely talented Rin, during which we visited a local abbey ruin and a tranquil river setting. Rin’s experience allowed her to pose with a natural grace that was a dream to photograph. She has a lovely light hearted and easy going personality, which made conversation between locations and the whole shoot itself so much fun. To top it off she didn’t complain at all about plunging into the freezing river fully clothed!

I would highly recommend Rin to any photographer and hope to be shooting again with her very soon.

Sinopa Rin is highly recommended and lives up to the recommendations. This shoot was organised well in advance with the details worked out very efficiently. Having found the locations I wanted to use I specifically wanted to work with Rin on this shoot as she has the right look and outfits for the images I was aiming for together with the skills to create wonderful images. Having worked with Sinopa Rin before I knew she had exceptional hair, make up and modelling skills and she utilised all of these skills to create some very beautiful images that I am very happy with.

I should add Rin is also a very nice person and a pleasure to work with.

I have extolled the virtues of Rin several times, however this was our first shoot outside of a controlled group shoot and I was a little nervous to be honest. Clearly, with Rin there is no need for any self doubt, just let her do her stuff and you are guaranteed some great shots. Rin is just a lovely person, deep thinker and fantastic model. What a devastatingly compelling combination. Really looking forward to a half day location shoot with her in June.

Rin is a class act. Beautiful, charming and professional. Great company and well focussed. She has a photographer's eye and will go the extra mile to ensure a fantastic composition. I loved spending time in her company and the resulting photos were incredible. Practically no editing required!

If you can only afford one model I strongly recommend working with Rin. You won't be disappointed.

Miss Sinopa Rin. Someone who has been on my Want to Work with List for some months, not long after I joined Purpleport. Several outstanding photograph’s rarely comments in Forum’s. Most of all, few models have such an extensive set of port notes. That was enough for me. She in many ways reminded me of a dear friend of mine Maia and now that I have photographed her, in so many other ways too, excepting being a Redhead of course. So much so I was much more nervous than normal before a shoot, fully expecting another breakdown on the day.

I haven’t photographed for months on here, my health not being up to it and as a result not being in funds either. TFP Castings (albeit specific) unfilled, nothing. Fortuitously Miss Rin posted a last-minute casting call due to a cancellation in Chippenham or Bath up to 4 hours on that date. Equally fortuitous I was in funds and possibly well enough.

Comms were first class, prompt, polite, detailed. It is so nice to have a prompt and actual reply to my messages. Relevant questions and yes Mobile numbers exchanged. All arranged.

Arrived OK and messaged and shortly a message back as her train was delayed. Immediately offering to change the terms of the shoot. Big-hearted of her, didn’t have to do that. Fortunately, I didn’t need to hurry back to Bristol, so as planned. So, after getting plenty of water waited for her at the Station Entrance. Moment of Truth when she appeared, I didn’t have a breakdown.

She was most effusive and as polite and pleasant as others have said to me. Nerves just evaporated. A discussion and off we went to the Bath’s.

I left it up to her and I note she was immaculately turned out, flower print summer dress in Sea Blue, white and grey trainers with pink piping, black knitted wool tights, matching flower print black leather belt and a Moss Green knitted jumper, and a Saddle Brown Montana peak wide brim fur felt hat. Very Bohemian and suited her perfectly.

I note she refused all offers of assistance with her wheeled suitcase and bags. Yet constant comments on my welfare throughout. Very endearing. I expected trouble with my limbs but after a couple of times nothing. Very organised and prepared, brought all her own everything even refreshments.

Wherever we went, no fuss, no hissy fit, no complaints, no trouble. Even when I couldn’t shoot locations as planned, Pulteney Bridge being closed off on the day for instance. Always helpful, pointing out things. Off to Green Park and again most helpful and no complaints. Despite my naff Map Reading and I think sometimes my naff Direction when Photographing, got there in the end. Lovely sets, she spotted locations to try too. I note by the Avon so off to the River path. Now it is my habit often to use my EVF viewfinder especially in Strong Sunlight and kindly she was spotting for me, as said path was full of cyclists shortly and walkers.

So, having got many shots and suggesting about heading back, no idea where we are but she went and kindly asked someone. So not far from Bath Spa and walked further down the River path and a final set of photographs’ near there at the River and Bridge.

At the station and our Departure as effusive, polite and pleasant as her Arrival. Even as I requested messaged me later that she arrived safely home.

My endearing impression. A Beautiful Kind Soul! She is Empathetic, Organised, Intelligent. I only knew of her, then corresponded a few days beforehand. On meeting her in person, she gives off such a Cool Happy Vibe, soothing presence, very catching, no nerves especially from me. Never met before, yet someone who I could and did just talk away to about anything. Principled, it is so refreshing and helpful to have someone who is certain on what she will do and what she won’t do. Very Selfless and self-Deprecating. Immaculately Turned out.

Not many people have said such kind things to me or about my Photography in person or otherwise. She is one of the most Thoughtful people I have ever met. It is a very rare thing for someone to say what they are and keep their word. Truth is throughout her port notes.

Manners cost nothing. Then again Kindness, being Deeply Kind means everything.

There are few finer ways of spending 2 hours in life. She has a lovely graceful poise and movement and expression in person. Modesty Blaze would be a fitting pet name. She is selling herself short but knows far more about Photography and many things than she lets on. An excellent knowledge of light, composition and no problem seeing and understanding my camera. She does more than just “dabble” in Photography. Even following up her Comms after the shoot. Totally Thorough in her approach. The most minute attention to every detail (remembered my request to bring a hat too).

This is certainly the longest reference I have ever written. Professional…I have had dealings with many supposed “Professionals” including a certain Society in Bath, Open University and various Doctor of Medicine in General Practice. Doesn’t even know what Professional is.

Now we have Miss Sinopa Rin, the Consummate Professional. The word is perhaps overused but having met her she is it! Certainly, a Good Samaritan too!

I am a great fan of David Bailey FRPS and I have wondered why after 58 years even now Jean Shrimpton is his most photographed model. Indeed no one has a bad word to say about her or him. Now I understand. Here in Miss Sinopa Rin we have the 21st Century’s Jean Rosemary Shrimpton.

Would I recommend her?.......Yes!

I have no doubt provided she is certain on what she will do, then anyone in any Creative field working with her is guaranteed to get results, every time.

I still cannot believe I have these photograph’s taken by me with my camera. Photograph’s just flowed. I am overwhelmed by the response too. I cannot take the entire credit as this very much felt like a collaboration, model and photographer working together towards a common goal. I would absolutely wish to photograph her again, this year, next year and beyond.

There are Prices far above Rubies. Miss Sinopa Rin is one of those people who so unexpectedly make the Deepest Impression. Having photographed comparatively little and my health not up to it or in funds for several months. Could not stand to be anywhere near people, only very few. Trust is so important to me and in Photography and it takes a great deal for me to Trust someone. Yet throughout all this Miss Sinopa Rin is someone at once I Trusted and can Trust completely. She is certainly worth knowing.

So, and this is the highest recommendation I can give.

After so many months of being forgotten, lost my touch, health etc, an absolute wreck!

I can't believe I haven't worked with Rin before! An amazing professional, a lovely person and an incredible model. We chatted about how it's so much easier to work with good models and Rin is right up there with the best. She understood my (loose) brief and worked hard creating different looks and styles.

Rin was prepared, brill comms and a gorgeous person. I hope to work with her again VERY soon!

Now, all I need to do is choose 'the' shot from the literally hundreds of great shots I have!!

Thank you Rin!

Had a fantastic session with Rin today, thanks in no small part to her indepth knowledge of lighting and photography, came away with some lovely images. I learnt so much today, had a real master class. Can't recommend Rin enough!! Looking forward to doing more sessions with her in the future

rmk2112

As always a great pleasure to photograph Rin. She creates such great looks and has an amazing knowledge of photography both in front of and behind the camera, making it easy to get great shots. Her 450+ positive references are well deserved.

The consummate professional, in every sense of the word. A truly outstanding person and model. Patient, attentive and encouraging. A fantastic photographer as well if you need some help with your own technique. What more can you ask for. Shoot with Rin whilst you can folks, you will not be disappointed.

Corsairoz

Another excellent afternoon creative shoot at Fareham Studios with Rin.

Rin is so easy to work with and smoothly flows from pose to pose without direction. It is certainly great to work with a model that truly understands how to work in the studio and the lighting and photographic processes.

If you do feel the need to give small guidance Rin is very attentive to small details and seeking that perfect shot. She is also very patient...

Highly recommended, a true professional and I will certainly be working with Rin again, hopefully very soon.

I've had the plasure to work with her at one of my workshops. She was great, professional and easy going. I would totally recommend her to anyone.
