My apologies for such a late reference.

I had my first shoot with this amazing photographer at the end of February, we tired a few levels that were new to me, he was very respectful and we got some Amazing shots.

All in all I would definitely recommend him and can’t wait to shoot with him again!

Had a great shoot with Behind_the_lens after a while in yatus.

He was very kind and understanding of my condition, a great communicator to make the collaboration work and managed very well my stage fright moments.

Looking forward to other collaborations with him we spoke about.

Behind the lens booked me for a shoot today at my place in Hove, pre shoot comms were great and he had loads of ideas, making good use of my props and gear. He was relaxing and fun to be around and I was very comfortable with him. Definitely recommended, many thanks!

Ricardo answered my TFP casting call for a street noir art concept I wanted to pursue in central London. Comms were clear and he sounded eager to try a new idea. We both have spanish backgrounds so communication just flew very naturally. He arrived on time and we mapped out the session over a coffee. Shoot went great, he's incredibly polite, professional and takes his hobbie very seriously. I felt very comfortable working with him and got some truly amazing images that I'm soooo happy with!

Thanks Ricardo for some awesome images. Models: don't miss the chance to work with this man!

I had a very enjoyable shoot with Ricardo! Having briefly been in contact before, I was very pleased indeed when he messaged me to say he would be in Wales and would like to shoot with me!

Communication was great, and arranging the shoot no problem.

I really admire Ricardo's work so I was really looking forward to this shoot!

Ricardo is easy to talk to and I felt we got on well! He is very professional in his approach and I felt comfortable in front of his camera - no issues there. :) The first thing we did after jumping out our cars (we drove separately to the location) was to start taking images by a waterfall. It can be a challenging place to shoot, but despite the loud water, we were able to communicate well enough.

It was enjoyable modelling but I felt that the shoot went wayyy too quickly, and because I no longer car-share (to keep covid-safe), there was less time to talk and get to know him more. I also no longer review back of camera images as much as I'd like to, due to social distancing (plus time was tight on this shoot), but I had absolute faith in Ricardo's photography so I was confident that he would get some good images!

It was a lovely shoot and I am very happy to recommend Ricardo whole heartedly to any model!

I am also really looking forward to the potential possibility of working with Ricardo again.... I do hope you are over this way again soon Ricardo! Thank you so much for a lovely day! Muchas gracias! :)

Had a lovely shoot in some woodlands near Ricardo. He picked good locations and we got some brilliant shots.

Really enjoyed working with him and creating images. He's a very good photographer with a great eye for composition and lighting. Also makes you feel very at ease during to shoot and is easy to chat to.

Look forward to shooting again. Thanks

Met for the first time on a charity shoot doing a 50s theme which was highly enjoyable and most rewarding. We used a vintage car as a setting and then developed ideas from there- ideas were rolling well. I'm looking forwards to working with him again.

Ric is a wonderfully talented photographer and a lovely chap. He is dedicated, well prepared, has plenty of ideas, works quickly and is always in good humour. He is also a fantastic photographer. I thoroughly recommend him !

A professional, down to earth and creative photographer!

Very highly recommended of course:)

Ricardo made me feel comfortable to shoot and relaxed. We were able to work through a few set outfits, I threw in some ideas he; he threw in some ideas and found myself at a derelict barn! He is creative and gives good direction. Great photographer and very respectable. Highly recommend.

Thoroughly enjoyable afternoon with Ricardo, who took great care to ensure I was happy and comfortable throughout, feeding me and keeping me topped up with coffee, and inviting me to contribute my own ideas to the shoot. He had some splendid ideas himself - we visited a derelict church in the woods and got some sensational images. Very much looking forward to working with him again. Wholeheartedly recommended.

Ric and I met at a recent charity shoot and i was pleased to be shooting with him. We decided on a boho/summer fashion shoot and as the weather was sunny it was the perfect theme.

Ric is friendly and professional, He gave good direction and whilst it was a short shoot i enjoyed myself.

Hopefully we can work together again. Recommended by me

I worked with Ric at a group charity shoot. We had a 45 minute slot. I also worked with the amazing Cheeky Leah. I found Ric to be polite, professional and very chatty.

The shoot was great fun as we got to pose on a motorbike. During the shoot we got to have single poses as well as both Leah and myself posing together.

I am really looking forward to seeing the proofs and the finalised editions. I would highly recommend Ric and I hope I get to work with him again in the near future.
