Sophie is a amazing model. She has beautiful skin and a fantastic figure. She produces excellent natural poses and moves gracefully. She is also a lovely person. I really enjoyed shooting her. Highly recommended :)

I also survived the fires for part 2! The preparation in part 1 paid dividends when we shot a fire-graffiti urbex theme at the Uxbridge Galleries.

I already said some nice things which remain totally valid, but Sophie topped it this time with her willingness to travel over an hour in each direction, then take a 15/20 minute off-road walk to access the location. And all whilst carrying her fire equipment and costumes. Not every model would do that, let alone with good grace and humour.

She also self-styled the shoot brilliantly, using only a few pieces to give different and captivating looks. She was totally relaxed to do a little lingerie level, just ignoring a few walkers etc. Not every model would do those things either.

I had noting like Sophie previously in my port, for style or appearance, let alone the fire artistry. I cannot imagine how a model could give a better shoot experience, and if you've read this far, you would be mad not to book Sophie now.

I cast for of fire artist and I'm so glad Sophie replied. You are genuinely getting something unique with Sophie and I highly recommend you to book her.

Anticipating a technically demanding shoot, we split it over 2 sessions. In the first practice session she was patient taking me through the fire paraphernalia, as well as grabbing a few impromptu fashion shots. I hadn't really focused on it before the fact, but Sophie also has an incredible look, considerable skill as a model and a performer, remaining unfazed by spectators and walkers. Added to that, she is charming, great fun and professional throughout, plus she did not incinerate me. I am really looking forward to part 2!

I was lucky enough to have the privilege of working with Sophie recently. Pre-comms were great beforehand as we discussed and shared ideas, and agreed a suitable date.

On the day Sophie arrived on time and was instantly friendly and likeable. Her make-up was flawless and she had a great selection of outfits that perfectly suited the ideas we had discussed, including pieces designed and made by herself. During the shoot Sophie posed effortlessly on her own and followed direction as given, continuing to be friendly and enthusiastic throughout our time working together.

Sophie was an absolute joy to work with and I'm really pleased with the images that we produced. I would very happily and hope to work with Sophie again. Very highly recommended :)

I had the privilege of working with Sophie for the second time recently. And like before, she was brilliant.

In addition to being gorgeous, Sophie is a talented and enthusiastic model and designer. She has her own clothing line, with some impressive designs which I asked her to bring to the shoot.

Sophie has a great look and sense of style, further enhanced by her lovely designs. She is also an engaging, friendly person and a pleasure to work with.

I am really looking forward to our next shoot this spring or summer. Highly recommended!

I've just completed a shoot at Sanctum Studios with Sophie and it was fantastic.

Her pre-shoot comms are excellent and we discussed at length what and where to shoot.

We ended up at Sanctum as we thought it would provide a great backdrop for the dark themes we had in mind. We weren't wrong. Over the day we created some great gothic styled boudoir and a few 'shades of grey' style images in the lounge and bedroom along with some eerily lit shots on the stairs.

Sophie is lovely person and great to work with. She is also fabulous model, has great looks, is very patient, follows direction well and poses naturally on her own. She also has her own ideas and works collaboratively which I love. The standard of her outfits and make up was excellent and she effortlessly created different looks to a high standard throughout the day.

I loved shooting with Sophie and will continue to do so as long as she'll have me :-)

Thanks Sophie.

Very highly recommended!!

It has been a while since Sophie and I first shot together, so I've been waiting impatiently for this shoot. I was very keen to do some low-key, black background portraits of Sophie, and Sophie wanted to get some lingerie/boudoir style images so we decided to set up at my home and cover both in one session. We also added in a quick product shoot, of Sophie wearing the items that she has made for her new Etsy store.

Sophie is an absolute joy to work with. Don't let the fact that she rarely smiles in her images fool you into thinking she is no fun - I had such a great time with Sophie on Sunday and I can't wait to shoot with her again. She is confident and has a creative mind, so ideas flow back and forth throughout the shoot.

I've just finished going through our images for the first time, and there are so many stunning shots. Sophie and I have big flans for future projects, and I honestly can't wait to shoot with her again (and again... and again!).

I’ve been lucky enough to work with Sophie twice now and have been really happy with the results both times.

Sophie takes direction well and has a unique style and image that is just my aesthetic.

She’s only just started modeling and already has confidence and technique so I can only imagine how incredible her portfolio is going to continue to be.

Would happily recommend.

Had absolutely amazing shoot with Sophie, she is true superstar, from the communication, outfit and working through the shoot, can't praise her enough. She looks absolutely stunning and is a joy to work with. Despite my crazy ambitions we managed to get so much more than I imagined. Would recommend Sophie one million percent!!

I'm just in from my first shoot with Sophie, and the photography gods were looking down favourably on me yet again! Despite the chill, and a sudden downpour of rain which required a mad dash back to the car, I have got some awesome images and had a great couple of hours.

I booked Sophie shortly after she joined PP back in December as I had an idea for an outdoor-in-the-woods shoot, and Sophie had the perfect look for it. Right from the start, Sophie was up for the shoot, even though tramping through woods would be a little different to the shoots she had done to date. Comms were outstanding throughout, and we arranged for me to pick Sophie up to drive her to the location. There was a slight jaw-drop moment as Sophie got in my car as her makeup was just so exquisite, and stayed that way for the whole shoot, even after being rained on.

The weather forecast was for some rain, but Sophie kept reassuring me over the past few days that this would not be an issue for her and if it meant getting a bit damp then so be it. Fortunately the rain held off the the first hour or so, but we sheltered in the car, and even though she was cold and wet Sophie was still keen to go back out for more shots once the rain stopped. I'm so glad she did as we got some of our best shots in that last half an hour or so.

Sophie was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is very easy to talk to and has a great personality. She has a very creative mind, and I found her opinion on the back of camera shots I showed her to be of a great help, and her suggestions were so useful when trying to achieve the great shots I wanted. I will definitely be working with Sophie again in the future - I have a project that I have been planning for some time, and Sophie a) has the perfect look for it and b) is enthusiastic about being part of it. I really couldn't ask for more. Sophie is definitely highly recommended by me!

Sophie is an absolute joy to work with, her hair and make up we’re done to a very high standard, she had a great selection of high quality clothing with her, she poses effortlessly and is happy taking direction or posing freely, we got some great shots, highly recommended model and would love to work with her again.

Got to work with Sophie back in October, and it was an absolute pleasure. Awesome posing, extremely flexible and amazing dance grace. Totally original, follows direction well but hardly needed. A true creative, the shoot went like a dream and we got some amazing images.

Very highly recommended, so much so shoot number 2 already booked

Many thanks Sophie for the very awesome photoshoot :-)
