Can't believe it's been 2 years since our last shoot, however we have stayed in touch since and so it just felt like good mates hanging out and not like we hadn't seen one another in so long!! Stu really helped out with poses and easing me back into it all again as I haven't done many studio shoots for a while but it wasn't long before I found my groove again and we were smashing out the images!

We had a great laugh throughout, chilled out on the blow out bed for a while as it was a hot day so we just spent a lot of the time chatting which is nice to be able to do. He also allowed me to have a go on his VR which was definitely an experience and a good laugh watching my reactions back again. Thanks for a great day, and already looking forward to the next!! :D

It certainly didn't feel like it had been three years since Stu and I had last worked together. We picked up where we left off and had a fantastic day full of laughter, catching up, dancing to 80's music, creating awesome photos and I even had a go on his VR at the end of our shoot :D

Pre-communications were spot on - I knew what to bring with me on the day and I had a clear understanding of the ideas for our shoot with reference images etc. Stu was a brilliant host and met me at the car park. He even treated me to some fiery hot wotsits (they are my faves!) I had to stop myself from eating the entire bag while he was inflating the blow up bed for the boudoir set.

Stu is professional, creative and respectful and a lot of fun to be around. I felt a bit rusty after not doing many studio shoots in a really long time but Stu was patient with me and directed me with posing which I really appreciated and this helped me feel comfortable and at ease. The photos are amazing as always and I am over the moon that we worked together again and I really look forward to our next one!

Thanks again! :D

Just had a shoot with Stu, what a character! He is such a great guy, very funny, patient, sweet and straight forward, he is also very friendly and easy going. He was so well prepared and organized. He had so many props and suggestions.

He gives instructions but also leaves you space and time to do what you like.

Certainly a day to remember, I can't wait to shoot with him again☺️ totally most definitely recommend 💯 an alround super duper experience ⚡😃

I’m new to modelling and this was my first Nude shoot, so understandably I was feeling a little nervous before hand. However Stu was so quick to put my nerves to rest.

He spent a lot of time giving me some very helpful info and tips before we even started shooting! And then when we started the shoot, what can I say, he was AMAZING! Stu gave me so much direction and guidance throughout that any nerves I had soon melted away. He had a lot of props and ideas already prepped and knows exactly what will work for you personally as a model, and we created so many different looks and images that I was instantly in love with!

The fact that he has gone out of his way to help me start up my portfolio with such amazing shots, I couldn’t be more grateful! The time literally just flew by, we could have kept shooting for hours, I loved every second of it! Can’t wait to shoot again and after reading your profile I shall be expecting some Jaffa cakes next time ;)

Had the opportunity to shoot with Stu again and what a pleasure it was! It was great to catch up, as always we had a laugh, produced amazing images & was directed very well. He's a fantastic photographer, very talented so of course I'd highly recommended & can't wait to shoot again :)

Feeling very excited on my way to shoot with Stu! Our first studio shoot together. The last shoot was a relaxed outdoor shoot that was a fabulous day. I knew for sure this would be great fun and we would make images to be proud of together.

Stu is a wealth of knowledge and knows exactly how to make every model look their absolute naturally beautifully best!

Patient, fun, focused and a truly great guy to create with!

Thank you for spending your time with me, editing and sharing the most gorgeous images.

I had my first ever shoot with Stu yesterday, its been a long time coming! I've loved his work for absolutely ages and left on such a high yesterday.

Stu had so much patience with me (I was so nervous and desperately trying to hide it!) I love the direction he gives, he knows what looks great: from angles, to posing, to lighting, to outfits... the man just knows!!

From the moment I arrived Stu made me feel so comfortable, the whole day was such a pleasure from start to finish and I'm so thankful that I got to work with him. Stus work speaks for itself and I'm still fangirling at the fact that I got pictures by Starglider!!

I honestly cannot recommend this man more highly if I tried and absolutely will work with him time and time again. Thank you so much Stu!

Stu is a bloody awesome human, he is such great company and has become a very good friend of mine over the years. But for some bizarre reason we had just never got around to shooting together! So we were determined to fit in a little shoot whilst I was visiting him recently, and I'm so glad we did :D

We worked our way through a few different looks and I absolutely LOVE the results we got together! Highly recommended by me :)

Had an amazing shoot with the super talented Stu today!

He’s super friendly and a great laugh which is realistically one of the most important things :p

On top of that he has a huge wardrobe, great skills with lighting and is full of creative ideas!

Our shoot was very chilled yet we got so much done, the images look amazing and I had a lot of fun!

Can’t wait to share the results and would highly recommend to other models :)

Amazing shoot with Stu last Sunday, he really knows his stuff to create beautiful images. So down to earth and a pleasure to work with. We had such a laugh and looking forward to working with him in the future. Highly recommend you book a shoot, your missing out if you don’t.

Another predictably awesome shoot with Stu in the bag! We had loads we wanted to get done and even with time restraints, he smashed it and we ended up with some gorgeous work, along with a really cool video!

Always recommend Stu. He buys you breakfast.

My fave by a LONG SHOT!

This guy... not only is he so welcoming and warm as a person. He is insanely talented!!!

His direction was very professional. He knew what he wanted and guided me along the way so I never felt lost. There was never a lull. If anything we had to force ourselves to stop shooting..

We had such a giggle and the 80s/90s tunes were bangin! Singing along to Spice Girls together while shooting in the nood will be a treasured memory 😂

ALWAYS shoot with this guy. He just stepped my port up MAJOR 🖤

Thank you fwend 🥰 Excited for our shooture together xx

P.s. Next time VR is on!

My second shoot with Stu and once again had an absolute blast.

We laughed, laughed some more and took some epic shots. Stu is remarkably professional and makes you feel extraordinarily comfortable; he has pushed me out of my comfort zone and have created some epic images as a result. He also does a rather good kat whatsherface impression from eastenders...

SLATER. Kat slater. They come free of charge, so take advantage of that!

Looking forward to many more in the future!

Stu is a hoot!

He is very chilled and relaxed and supplies copious numbers of jaffa cakes!

His pre comms are excellent, and despite a list of pre-requisites (understandably so) he was very professional, fun and easy going.

He had lots of extra clothing for us to work with and we tried a huge number of looks and I enjoyed every second. The simplicity yet sophistication of his set up I feel worked really well and I've walked away really happy with the results.

Thank you stu!!!

I had my 4th brilliant shoot with Stu at his home studio.

You can see why I go back to work with him from his creative art images which I admire. This time, I have already received gorgeous images and I LOVE all of them!!! His standard is sky high and his creativity is endless.

I am really looking forward to create more awesome images with Stu.

Highly recommended!!!

Thank you for the brilliant shoot and gorgeous images!

Had such a good shoot with Stu today, didn’t take him up on the offer of KFC but now wish I had 😂

Really easy to work with and loads of props and clothes that we used none (oh one) of my outfits! Seen a few pics already but cannot wait to see the rest 😊👍🏼 Hopefully work together again soon.

Lolli Michelle

What can I say...

Pre comms were second to none!

I arrived early so.. we had a McDonald's breakfast, best way to start a shoot, right?

Sooo welcoming and felt as if we had known one another years! Fun shoot, easy going yet professional and is more than happy to help and offer advice with direction.

Plenty of breaks..with jaffa cakes too. What more do you need?

Thank you for the fab images!

I worked with the EPIC Starglider again recently and had such a FUN, creative day! This time we worked together on a slightly different project... videography! Videography is still a little out of my comfort zone but its really important to push yourself.

I am really trying to develop my skills in this creative field so its always fantastic practise for me and its not often that I get the time to practise! Stu came to Wiltshire and made the journey from Maidstone just to work together which was also mega appreciated!

Stu is a very patient and kind person to work with, who gives great direction to the model. He also puts so much thought into the creative styling process, from what the model is wearing to the artistic direction of the videgraphy. I really enjoyed our spontaneous clothes shopping trip and the weather was perfect for the outdoor shoot at the ruin I had in mind!

Really looking forward to the results and super highly recommended to all models and creatives. See you in November! xx

One more pleasure shoot with Mr Starglider. As always, things got crazy from start until the end. Fun, friendly and professional plus quality images, no words to say really. :)

Pre-comms were always excellent, lots of ideas and props to play with, we set up several setting which gave me run out of energy after 4 hours lol. but all worth it.

Stu is really talented photographer and really quick with his editing, I would recommend him to anyone who looking for fun shoot with high quality images, you wont be disappointed.

Thanks Stu. Until next time. T

I think this was our 15th shoot together!

(Which in itself says a lot) I will always work with Stu without hesitation! We always have a laugh and produce top quality images!

Highly recommended!
