A really awesome shoot with Sal, but very different genre for her and she totally rocked the shoot being well prepared with her wardrobe and props. We had both shot the venue before but not together so we knew how to get the most out of it, and where to seek out variations.

Sal was of course great company during the shoot as we chatted casually throughout the morning setting up each set where Sal had ideas and props to suit.

During the shoot Sal is so much more than just the model, she is an integral part of the creative process as she brings so much to the session.

A wondeful model who deserves much wider acclaim, a real treasure to the artistic life model world. If you have not worked with her you really ought, you will not be dissapointed.

Of course a complete reccommendation from me

Another shoot with the amazing Skycladpixie, and this one outside of our customary natural environment work. We had touched upon some indoor work at our recent May Hill shoot but this shoot, in response to my “Stylish Erotica” casting, took us ‘off-piste’.

And here’s the thing; Sal drew on her deep reservoir of ability and style and absolutely rocked the shoot. We gradually moved away from interpreting the moodboard I’d prepared and into some genuine edgy spontaneity. Sal’s creativity and innate sense of what could work for the image was inspiring; she’s always so ready to analyse her work (always share back-of-camera with Sal) and fine tune and nuance her posing. This approach is hugely beneficial to me as a photographer, as I am able to adjust accordingly as Sal adapts her poses, and the images invariably improve as we shoot a set.

Sal’s artistic integrity is beyond doubt; it’s one of the many reasons I so enjoy shooting with her. But as I have written previously, there is no finishing a reference for Sal without mentioning her warmth, humanity and lovely nature. Those invaluable qualities made the experimental nature of today’s shoot, a photographic adventure into terra incognita, an absolute joy, and the results extremely rewarding.

If you have worked with Sal before you surely know exactly what I’m talking about. If you haven’t shot with Sal yet, you really should.

Lovely to work with Sal again, indoors this time at a very interesting cottage. The busy and eclectic decor was a challenge but made for some different images. The setting had lots of variety and different spaces. Sal of course was completely relaxed in the environment and we shot naturist-in-quirky-home-setting type pictures. The light was tricky but gentle and soft, great for some arty monochrome pictures which I shot both digitally and on film, perfect for Sal's beautiful feminine curves. It was a lot of fun and it goes without saying that Sal is recommended 100%.

Chuffed to bits to get to work with the fabulous skycladpixie again - this time on our 16th shoot!!

As always, Sal is fabulous to work with. She gives everything to the shoot and makes it the most wonderful and fun experience. Most of all though, we get to create fabulous images that I'm super proud of.

I love working with Sal and am already looking forward to the next time and adding to our wonderful collection of work.

Thanks skycladpixie! Very highly recommended :-)

Another amazing shoot with Sal around an area of the Forest of Dean that we have shot in before but has so many locations for us to explore and be highly creative within.

Sal is right at home within Nature. She has so many wonderful poses where she can bend, twist and blend herself against rocks and trees and other areas of the landscape. Sal had so much fun when she was able to engage mountain goat mode and scramble up rocks and trees to explore the landscape even more and I had fun moving around finding different angles to shoot her varied and creative poses. She has a relaxed, friendly nature and as always is wonderful company to be around.

I'm very happy with the images we shot and of course will highly recommend Sal and look forward very much to our next shoot which hopefully will be soon.

A really great shoot with Sal, this tme on my patch as it were. After a rain delayed start we headed into the local hills. Even though everything was wet nothing could stop her jumping to every oportunity to blend herself into the natural shapes formed by the mature woodlands magnificent trees. Sal knows how the use each part of every tree to extract the most from it, she has a great appreciation how she will look on camera even before you have released the shutter, she has an understanding of light and shadow which is better than many.

She was great company while we chatted waiting for the rains to ease, a real pleasure to work with. We didn't shoot a vast number of images, there was no need as so many were amazing. Thank you Sal, til the next time.

Of course a 100% recommendation from me.

Another opportunity to shoot with Skycladpixie, our 5th shoot…that alone should tell you that Sal is great to work with, a deep reservoir of ability, grace and style.

Working with Sal is always a joy; she is possessed of such enthusiasm, artistic integrity and a natural ability to identify and work locations, unafraid to try different poses and body shape in search of the ideal image. Sal is the photographer’s dream…a truly collaborative model, with ideas in abundance and an analytical eye for back-of-camera, challenging (in the nicest possible way) both photographer and herself to achieve the best images possible.

Working with Sal in a natural environment is having the opportunity to watch her interpret the landscape and fold and blend herself into it, until you feel that the trees, rocks, leaves, moss and earth will miss her when she leaves.

And there is no finishing a reference for Sal without mentioning her warmth, humanity and lovely nature. Sal’s beautiful femininity is both external and within, and shooting with her is a constantly rewarding and creatively fulfilling experience.

I remember seeing Sal's portfolio when I first discovered PurplePort and thinking that it looked like someone I'd like to work with. How true that turned out to be when I finally had my first shoot with her several years later. The first was good although my photography on a lousy wet day left room for improvement, but our duo with Mothy was stunning and this one matched it. A fabulous range of images reacting to what what we found in the ancient woodlands and what we brought with us. Sal is a spirit of nature and a beautiful soul and I know our next encounter will bring something special and different too.

Another wonderful shoot with the incomparable skycladpixie :-)

We did something a little different this time and although the weather didn't quite turn out as we expected, it only served to give us more and different opportunities to get some great photos. Having just worked on them, I'm so pleased with how they've turned out. That's really all down to skycladpixie's skills as a model. She'll make every situation work and ensure we come away with photos to be proud of.

I love working with skycladpixie. It's always a collaboration in the truest sense of the word. We bounce ideas off each other, try them out without fear of failing and always come up with great results.

Best of all, she's just a lovely person to hang out and shoot with. I always look forward to our shoots and leave with a real buzz having created a little piece of magic.

Long may our shoots continue. Very highly recommended. Thanks Sal :-)

I had a delightful shoot yesterday with skyclad and her duo partner Mothy in a lovely setting in The Forest of Dean. Sky is a wonderful model, very comfortable in her own skin, has beautiful soft curves and perfect all over tan. She positively glowed in the gentle sunlight, which was ideal to model her figure so well. Mothy too was great to shoot and they look really good together. Both are easy to direct, offer valuable contributions to the creative process - including finding such excellent locations, and were a great help to achieve my vision of the images. The conversation flowed well as we trekked through the woodlands and both are excellent company. It was a super day on so many levels and I'm sure we will work together again - soon I hope. 100% recommended of course.

Mothy

What a fantastic shoot modelling alongside with SkyCladPixie today in her local Forest of Dean, she has a great knowledge of the path's and trails leading to many locations, each of the locations have variety and produces work with a special character. She is great to work alongside, with a knowledge of which poses get the most of each place and creating a complimenting balance to my own body. While she produces great poses on her own she takes direction and pose adjustment well.

Great company and a real pleasure too work alongside, a very definite recommendation from me, till thr next time

Pre-comms were excellent, as usual. We were fortunate with the weather as the shoot was at a derelict church which would have been no fun in the rain. Sal was at the location before me with some props and a small stepladder which came in handy.

For most of the shoot Sal was nude, but we did some clothed shots at the end, and also some portraits as well. Sal was happy to comply with my requests and offered some ideas of her own, which were excellent.

We chatted throughout the shoot, and had quite a few laughs, as on our previous shoots. Always great to shoot with Sal and I look forward to many more, so she is definitely recommended, and I hope that she carries on modelling for many years.

Thanks very much for a very enjoyable time Sal.

Shoot number 14(!) with the wonderful skycladpixie. That should really tell you all you need to know :-) I love working with Sal. She's fantastically versatile and capable of many different styles. She's always amazing and working with her is such a joy!

This time we headed out into the beautiful woods near where she's staying and captured some images I'm really proud of. We even flew the drone for a few shots from a different perspective.

Looking forward to many more shoots with the wonderful skycladpixie. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Go and shoot with her. You'll be very pleased you did :-)

Skycladpixie and I have shot several times now, over a reasonable period of time. That in itself is the biggest recommendation I can give, she is great to work with and fun too.

The venue for this shoot was a cottage she had arranged for us to get access to. The setting was great, as was the furniture and overall layout within the building. Part of the challenge was to make good use of the features in the cottage and blend Skycladpixie with her surrounding - she helped enormously in that respect, coming up with quite a few really good ideas.

I'm sure we will shoot again, she is a great model and shooting with her becomes a great day out.

Jon Taylor

I am indeed fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Skycladpixie.

Sal is such an accomplished model, full of grace, beauty and a powerful femininity, possessed of an artistic integrity and a natural ability to work locations with her special combination of style and substance.

Sal is a truly collaborative model, so willing to engage in on-shoot conversations about the images and how best to achieve them, which fuels the creative process.

All of which are fantastic attributes, but wouldn’t be what they are without Sal’s beautiful personality and warmth, which makes conversation and the building of a working relationship so easy.

If you haven’t yet booked a shoot with Sal, you should. You really should.

I had a great shoot with Sal yesterday and am really pleased with the shots we got. Sal had been very helpful when we were setting up the shoot and offered some choices of location from her experience of shooting in the Forest of Dean. The choice was perfect offering the selection of settings needed for the shots I had in mind. It's nice working with a "grown up" model too, so I knew she would be very dependable and the shoot was very relaxed. Having followed Sal on Purpleport for a while and reading her comments on the photos she posts, I'd really got a sense of her personality, so it didn't feel like the first time we'd met or worked together. Sal took everything in her stride, ignoring broken glass on the ground, climbing on rocks, pushing through undergrowth and ignoring the morning chill. Thanks again Sal.

Straker

Just lovely to work with the fabulous skycladpixie again. It's always such a pleasure and so enjoyable. This time we headed out in the evening through a beautiful wood up to some bluebells. There were photo opportunities everywhere we walked and we certainly took advantage of them! I love the images we created which are testament to how fabulous a model skycladpixie is.

If you're looking to work with one of the best model's on PP, you've just found her. She's awesome! Looking forward to many more shoots in the future.

Thanks Sal! Very highly recommended! :-)

Third shoot with the lovely Sal, in a different part of the beautiful Forest of Dean.

Pre-shoot comms were excellent, especially as we had to postpone a day at short-notice because of the weather. Sal’s pre-shoot preparation was excellent; she had scouted the location with her usual diligence and identified its potential, though with Sal room is always left for spontaneity as options occur along the routes chosen.

As before on shoots with Sal, she works the landscapes with an intuitive ability to blend into and become one with the environment. Sal is a natural model in every sense of the term, bringing a wealth of creativity, imagination and enthusiasm to a shoot, posing with grace and style. A shoot with Sal is always an opportunity for true collaboration, sharing of ideas and seeing what works.

Sal’s keen intelligence and warm personality means that conversation is easy and the time on shoot flies by.

Sal’s walk-and-shoots in the Forest are superb value, and if the opportunity to work with her arises you should take it without hesitation.

A fantastic shoot with Skycladpixie at the old Manor Mouse, she was prompt at the rendezvous as we headed off to the old Manor. While working clothed is not her normal way of working she aced each of the outfits to suit the specifics of the location available lighting, she was willing to try anything to get the shoot, regardless of her own comfort. It was a fantastic shoot creating many great images from around the Manor.

This shoot out of comfort zone showed her skill, her knowledge and versatility. a very definite recommendation from me, til the next time Sal

Another very enjoyable shoot with Sal in the Forest of Dean. Sal had scouted the route we took and found some great locations. We were fortunate with the weather so were able to visit all of the locations which Sal had identified. She is great to work with, happy to take direction and also has some excellent ideas to contribute. Once again I am happy to recommend her and look forward to more shoots with her next year.
