I had a great on location shoot with Stephane. The pre-shoot comms were excellent and he had clearly researched and prepared his location well. We used a business park for a business look, as well as in town and a local park for natural backgrounds. He shot with 3 cameras, digital, black & white and colour celluloid (no pressure), he takes time between shots to get it right in the camera and has a great eye for detail.

Stephane is friendly and gives good easy to follow direction which for an inexperienced model such as myself is invaluable.

I highly recommend a shoot with Stephane and look forward to the images.

What an amazing photographer Stephane is! The whole process so quick and simple, from start to finish it was perfect. Stephane knew how to capture the best shot with the correct angles and he worked with the sunlight to bring out the best images he could. I would recommend Stephane to any model as he will bring the absolute best out of them and create some stunning photos. He has helped me out with the different type of poses that correspond to the different outfits and I am overcome with amazement with how well the photos turned out. Thank you Stephane, this was the kickstart I needed to peruse my modelling career.

I had the pleasure of modelling for Stephane on Monday 9th March 2020. I was welcomed into his home studio with open arms, and with plenty of refreshments on offer! Stephane is a true gentleman, a fantastic artist and now a friend within the photography/modelling world. His patience, guidance, direction and vision is encapsulated beautifully within his work and his professionalism.

I would highly recommend working with Stephane, we had a wonderful day together creating content for the both of us, and I am very much looking forward to our future work together.

Stephane is a creative and talented photographer. A perfectionist about his work, yet laid-back and full of patience and encouragement for a new model. He gave me a lot of useful tips about how to look at the camera and how to pose comfortably for portraits. He is affable with a great sense of humour and good at reading people, being able to tell if a pose was slightly uncomfortable for me and then helping me find a more relaxed and comfortable pose. Although it was the hottest and most humid day of the summer, he kept the photoshoot calm and cool, and I had a really lovely time. Looking forward to working with Stephane again some time.

Working with fantastic Stephane for a 3th time was very lucky as he is very busy but very professional photographer.

Winter Bridal photoshoot went well even we had some complications Stephane manage to stay on the top of the things and took great images as always. He bought a beautiful feather mask and our model looked stunning with it and in a feather wedding dress.

Our second Christmas photoshoot was simply the best and Stephane got a xmas hat for my model friend Kate and also came with original idea and put Christmas lights around her. He got unique ideas and is a good stylist too.

Its sad that Stephane decided to take some time off from doing photoshoots but its good to take a break sometimes and come back much better and stronger so dear fashion world is worth to wait for Stephane to get back and hopefully we going to work together again!

Stephane is such a good photographer and very experienced. He was so lovely and accommodating from start to finish. When he messaged me to organise a shoot I was very happy to accept. The pre-comm's were excellent and I knew exactly how to prepare for the shoot as he was very clear about what he wanted to achieve. Due to Stephane's ample amount of experience, he was able to achieve the shots he wanted very fast and I was so impressed! Every image was amazing. He has a very professional home studio. Thank you for the experience and lovely tea! I wish you all the best

So far I have worked with Stephane twice on two different ideas, and I have loved every moment!

Stephane is a genius with the camera, working with me in order to create quality, professional photographs. Not also have I enjoyed the creative freedom, being challenged on new ideas and concepts but also how polite and caring Stephane is himself, making it so easy to be relaxed around him really making it a fun filled, great session!

I would love to recommend Stephane to anyone, whether you are just starting out (as he is so supportive and still provides me with great advice!) or more of an expertise, as with this professional supportive photographer you will always achieve excellent results in a fun filled way!

Teamed up with Stephane and MakeupArtistJane on a bridal lingerie shoot at his apartment studio. What a great team we made! Had an amazing shoot. Stephane was very accommodating and welcoming, and knew exactly what he wanted; giving direction when needed. Cannot wait to work with him again- definitely recommended!

MakeupArtistJane

Bridal lingerie photoshoot we organised with Stephane and Naomi was an absolute success!

Stephane is very professional photographer with lots of original ideas. He pays attention to every detail and he is well organised. I was very pleased

about his positive attitude and sense of humour. When you work with Stephane nothing is a problem and he is welcoming and a perfect host too.

I feel very lucky to be able to team up with Stephane and we already got a few ideas for next photoshoots.

I'm highly recommending Stephane to all models, designers, stylists and happy couples who are looking for a wedding photographer. With his talent, professional approach and fun personality he just got it all!

This is my 3rd shoot with Stephane and once again it was awesome. I love his passion for making beautiful images. He is easy going and makes you feel completely comfortable and confident. Plus his new space is awesome! Do you hesitate with with him! I will be again in the future!

Stephane was recommended to me and he is an amazing photographer! He knows exactly what he's doing and uses the lighting so well that he barely needs to do any retouching! I was so tired today after shooting in Birmingham the day before but we still got some impressive photos!

I highly recommend him! xx

Had an amazing shoot with Stephane yesterday in a beautiful location!

Pre-comms were fantastic and everything was very well organised before hand. Stephane is a true professional with the entire shoot and had a lot of ideas in mind with the direction the shoot could go. He arrived on time and was warm, nice and very approachable :).

Stephane came prepared and well organised with his camera equipment and lighting ready to go. He was very red to give direction to me and make litte changes and overall, communication was great! Really makes you feel comfortable and it shows in the shots!

Very creative, open and an excellent eye for a good photo.

Would definitely recommend, thanks Stephane for a great shoot, look forward to organising the next one!

WHERE DO I START!!? what a wonderful man, and talented photographer! It was such a pleasure to be able to shoot with Stephane. We did lots of different things and he guided me very well, I will remember the techniques he taught me.

Really want to shoot with him again already and highly recommend him 1000% I loved every single image that was taken which is a shock for me.

I'm extremely grateful for Stephane's time and effort, he's incredible and I've never met someone from France before so that too was a great pleasure. Thank you Stephane x

Oooh la la, the exceptional Stephane responded to my casting call and boy am I glad he did. The theme we were working on was a Guy Bourdin style set, which I think we nailed quite quickly. We then tried some quirky fashion and used a variety of different styled lighting effects. The results are sublime. Majorly impressed by Stephane photographic knowledge and sheer enthusiasm, if you could bottle what he has, you could sell it by the lorry load. Thank you for an awesome shoot, let's do it again soon x

The Snowdrop Studio

It was wonderful to welcome Stephane to snowdrop studios today for the first time. Pre shoot comms were top notch, made full use of all the lighting equipment and some of the house ( everyone loves the shoe room). The cats were also very taken with this lovely gentleman. Highly recommended in every way possible. Come back again soon :0)

He make me feels comfortable & relax during the shoot, also showed me the pictures as we go along which looked brilliant and I can’t wait to see the end results.

Stephane provided lunch & refreshments throughout the shoot and he came got me from the station and took me, even help towards my transport. Throughout the whole shoot, he was extremely responsive and patient, making sure he get the best images. I will highly recommend him & I will work with him again.
