Wow!

You know when you meet a fellow creative and just hit it off straight away?!

Well that’s what I was blessed with from the moment I met Steve!

A wonderful human being indeed, fantastic photographer and an infectious sense of humour that had me having to tell him to stop being so funny or the mood of the photos will be incredibly different to what we’re going for! It was a hilariously fun experience meeting and shooting with Steve.

He came to me with ideas, which I LOVED! Even used my own portfolio as a reference of the type of mood he wanted to execute, and with clear communication like this combined with his undoubted talents, we managed to create TONS of beautiful imagery! I can’t help but be happy and smile when I look at the shots and it truly is a wonderful memory too.

Steve booked me for 3 hours 1-1 after booking on to a group shoot to follow later in the day, and showed me that he can achieve both wonderfully dreamy natural light shots and punky, hard contrasted shots too.

I can’t recommend him enough, without a doubt a person to be working with in a heartbeat, and a really fantastic human! Not to be missed!

Steve was my first slot, on my first day of three studio days over at Inspire studio and it couldn't of been a better start!! We got some absolutely stunning images which speak for themselves really. I'm blown away by what we created.

We really got along well, we had a great shoot together and I really hope to do it all again sometime- hopefully soon!!

100% recommended from me!!!

I had my first and hopefully not the last shoot with Steve today! He comes across as so friendly, kind and lovely from the get-go. Pre-comms before the shoot were super clear and direct which is always helpful!

Steve has a lovely home-based studio which was warm and very versatile too! We completed all the sets planned with ease and got to try out some different things too. I felt comfortable and at ease straight away and during the whole shoot too, with lots of reassurance from Steve to make sure I was happy throughout. I got to see all of the photos on Steve's laptop at the end which showed how amazing they were and these were only the RAW files!

Thank you again Steve😊

Steve joined us at Fareham studios for our French-themed group shoot back at the start of February.

He was a joy to work with, super chatty, a great part of the group, and had great communication throughout the shoot.

I would be happy to recommend Steve to any model or studio.

I look forward to our next shoot.

Much love,

Eve

Steve was such a lovely photographer to shoot with. He had contacted me beforehand to suggest some options for shots and outfits which I always like as it’s great to go into a shoot knowing what is expected from both sides. He is very kind and really takes care to make sure the model is happy on set with the ideas, and with the photos afterwards. I would definitely recommend him to work with and would happily work with him again in future!

I worked with Steve recently for 2 hours during my weekend at Fareham Studio. I found him warm, friendly, inquisitive, and full of energy. He sent an email in advance introducing himself and outlining the ideas and styles he wanted to focus on which was helpful in knowing what to pack and making the most of the time we had to shoot, without feeling rushed.

We covered a great range of images both in natural light and in the studio set-up. I liked that Steve put the images on his laptop in between sets to view the quality of the images. The results are brilliant and I'd be very happy to work with Steve again :-)

Absolute delight to work with. Steve and I worked together at Fareham Studio as part of my studio day, and I had a great time with him. He's an enthusiastic and talented photographer, and I love the final edits - very welcome addition to my portfolio! Friendly, funny super professional, just an all-round lovely person. Hope to work with him again soon!

What a delightful person I had the pleasure to work with ☺️

Pre-comms could not have been better, then I was met with his lovely home studio and great hospitality. He keeps it professional, yet made me feel comfortable, consistently making sure that I had eaten, drank, needed anything, asking how I felt regarding any of the ideas etc. Steve also doesn’t realise how gifted he is not only in photography but all aspects of life, he is perhaps one of the most kindest and genuine people I have worked with. I genuinely feel lucky to have worked with him, because not only was he a pleasure to work with but we have also created some beautiful shots.

I recommend, you will not regret it. Thank you so much, hope to work with you again 😁

Had a fantastic time shooting with Steve at a group shoot organised by Fareham studio. I get quite nervous about group shoots as you just don't know who you'll be working with, but Steve laid every fear I had to rest. He was friendly, funny, professional, and overall just a dream to work with, making the time fly by like nothing. I highly recommend you take any chance you get to work with him. Thank you again for a brilliant shoot :)

I had an amazing shoot with Steve at Inspire studios in Salisbury. Steve showed up with a great mood, wide smile and all necessary equipment. He is a real pleasure to shoot with. We tried to implement different ideas, using studio and natural light, so we all happy with the results. Steve is really easy-going and respectful photographer, I did enjoy our shoot. The time just flew away from us, so I am looking forward to shoot with Steve again. Thanks Steve

Highly recommended to shoot with😊

Was a pleasure to see Steve again at the studio, this time working with Tanya Modele. Steve is such a lovely chap and his happy friendly nature is great to be around. He also has a relaxed way about him when he shoots and gets great results from the models and some fabulous images too. Look forward to Steve's next visit and would absolutely recommend working with him if you get a chance.

Where do I start with Steve? He was an absolute joy to work with! He's so friendly and incredibly approachable which made my studio day with him at Fareham studio so much more enjoyable! He was open to listen to any ideas I had, eager to shoot all over the place and we got through so many sets in the short time we had. Although only our first meeting, by the time he left the studio I felt like we'd known each other a long time, he has an incredible knack of making you feel truly at ease, which of course makes for better images!

Steve is a very talented photographer, adjusting his settings with ease with the constantly changing natural light and swapping lenses to make the most out of the space. His post production is also quite impressive with a fab turn around time, sending me a few images before my day had even ended! He truly was a joy to work with and I can't sing his praises any higher.

I definitely wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and I'd certainly love to work with him again in the future, which I sincerely hope we get to!

What a fantastic shoot! Steve is an amazing photographer and such a joy to be around as well! His home studio is perfect. Spacious, heated and well equipped. He provided edited images so quickly and only used images I liked / was comfortable with. It was all about me being happy with the end result too which was just perfect.

Highly recommend. Looking forward to shooting again!

Had a fantastic shoot on Thursday - it was first in-person shoot of the year for me and I'm glad it was with Steve. Pre-comms were excellent and on the day Steve was nothing but warm, friendly and professional. His studio at his house is fantastically equipped. We were both really happy with the results from each set and I can't wait to aww the edits! I'd unreservedly recommend Steve. All the best and hope to shoot again one day! :)

Had my first shoot with Steve recently (it was my first shoot back in a while!). Steve sent me such a lovely message, and after having a few bad experiences, made me feel so comfortable and happy and for that I am so grateful to Steve. Communication has been superb throughout.

I was very privileged to be the first model in Steve's brand new home studio. It is a lovely well-built studio and perfect for what we were intending to do.

We booked a 4 hour shoot and managed to get 7 different sets done. After every set Steve put the images onto the laptop where we could have a look through. Steve is a talented photographer and knows exactly what he is doing.

Steve is such a lovely, kind and genuine person who made me feel great throughout the shoot! I had such a lovely time and we had such a good laugh at the same time. I would 100% recommend Steve to all models and I'm sure I will work with him again soon!

Thank you!

Hannorah Model

My first shoot with Steve at my fashion studio day, held at MOL Photography Studio. This was also my first shoot after the long break due to the pandemic!

Steve was chatty and was happy for me to pose freely and switch up outfits throughout our shoot.

It was great to be able to see the images as we went along, as he had his laptop with him and it really helped to see what we had created.

Steve is a fantastic photographer, polite and kind.

Thank you so much for a great shoot, I really look forward to working with you again soon.

Highly recommended to all models.

Kind regards, Hannorah

THE PHOTOGRAPHERS STUDIO

Steve was one of the photographers who came to one-to-one shoot at my studio. Steve is a very accomplished photographer and also communicated well with Hannorah the model. Steve was a really nice person and a pleasure to meet. I would be more than happy to recommend him to any model and would be more than pleased for him to attend another studio day.

Kind regards

I had such a great day working with Steve and it was one of my favourite photoshoots.

He is such a kind person and talented photographer. His photography has a beautiful natural style and he is lots of fun to work with. I also really appreciate Steve showing me the photos on his laptop after the shoot. They are stunning and I am so excited to have them in my portfolio.

I highly recommend working with him.

Thank you Steve for the beautiful photos. :)

Steve was one of the photographers who joined my Halloween event.

I've never worked with Steve before but I really enjoyed working with him for the first time.

Very easy and nice to work with. Full of creativity and optimism.

Thank you once again for being a part of this. Looking forward to working with Steve again at some point :)
