Shannon and I had our first shoot together earlier this week and I absolutely loved every minute of it. A lovely chilled model rocking a beautiful alternative look she was a joy to shoot with. I was extremely fortunate to also have her partner Tom to shoot with too. They make a gorgeous couple and their chemistry in the sets is undeniable. We’ve already got another few days shooting planned and I cannot wait to see what else we come up with! xx

The shoot was an outside shoot in the waterfall country in South Wales. Two themes where decided on for the shoot, a Viking Warrior and Little Red Riding Hood. Shannon dealt with these two themes with ease like a true professional. I found Shannon to be a very pleasant and easy going person. She used a good selection of poses during the shoot. I certainly would highly recommended Shannon.

What a delightful person to work with. We had discussed ideas and themes well in advance. On the day Shannon arrived with a case of outfits and in front of camera make up was immaculate.

Time passed really quickly and Shannon delivered some really strong results that I am really pleased with.

I look forward to the next time.

Shannon was a surprise visitor at one of my camera club workshops - she had come along for the ride with the booked model. With a little persuasion Shannon appeared in front of the cameras much to the delight of the attending members - she quickly overcame any nerves she may have had at the outset.

Shannon is now very much on my radar for future workshops and I look forward to working with her again soon.

Had a fab shoot with Shannon and Tom.(https://purpleport.com/portfolio/thomasgreenhaf) There was great communication and they both came to the shoot with great ideas. I’m absolutely loving the photos I’ve got so far and looking forward to future shoots! Both great models and highly recommend!

Working with Shannon yesterday in London was an absolute blast. Despite it being a really really long day, she handled the added stress of travelling like a true champion. And guess what? We even managed to squeeze in a little bit of fire. It was great fun!

Overall, I have to say that working with Shannon was a fantastic experience. Despite the challenges, we made the most of it. Shannon's positive attitude and resilience made the day memorable.

First time shooting with Shannon after following her work on IG. From the first general discussions I could tell she was easy going, good fun and going to be fun to shoot with, sharing lots of ideas and being a truly collaborative process.

We made an outfit for this shoot, and Shannon helped us out by coming for a test fitting weeks before the shoot, so we didn't have any outfit surprises on the day, even with some challenges with having to cancel our first date due to ill health, Shannon was accommodating, and understanding. The shoot its self, was laid back, relaxed and amazing, the results i hope speak for themselves.

We have discussed another shoot already, with Shannon leading the way with the idea, and we cant wait to get the chance to work with her again soon. Totally recommendation. Thanksyou. 😎

A second shoot with lovely Shannon, it just gets better and better!

Making meaningful art doesn't necessarily depend on the best gear or the best lighting or the best post productions skills; yes it can help, but it amounts to little if there is no rapport between model and photographer, you know, that 'secret sauce'. And Shannon is so damn cool; engaging with my weird ideas 100%; interested in what we do and interested to see the images on BOC. This is the secret to creating meaningful images; it feels like a collaboration not a 'stand there' and 'do this' kind of shoot.

Shannon is friendly, chatty, funny and a thoroughly decent person; she makes shooting a very pleasurable experience.

Work with Shannon, work with Shannon!

This was the first time I had worked with Shannon and it's always a bit tricky working with someone new; you know, the anxiety of the unknown and all that. But within moments of meeting her I cold see she was warm, friendly and chatty; a perfect start.

One of my first questions to Shannon was 'why on earth would you want to do this, your port is full of beautiful images, you know what I do, right?' But is was clear to me, very quickly, that as well as create these charming and alluring images she also has a dark side [insert sinister laugh here], and this is what we were to draw out!

Shannon is a beautiful model but, of course, I soon changed that as the shoot progressed into a begrimed chaos of mud and rags. But remember that there is a great beauty within darkness and I could clearly see this as we created a goblin monster!

Some of it was challenging but Shannon was determined to 'get the shot' and pushed through times of poor (no) vision and mouthfuls of lovely tasty clay; in fact she was enthusiastic throughout and posed so well in less than comfortable conditions. A fearless versatility is something that Shannon exhibited during the whole process.

Shannon is truly a lovely, lovely person to work with; there were no awkward silences; chat flowed effortlessly and the whole shoot was extremely convivial. The perfect shoot. The perfect model.

Need I say more; 100%, 100%, 100%.

Had my first shoot with the lovely Shannon, after trying to work together for probably a year now (ah, Covid....). It was definitely worth the wait!

Shannon is an absolute blast to work with! I don't think I've had so many members of the public stop and talk to us on a shoot before - she looked so amazing, it was no wonder they all wanted to know who this mysterious valleys starlet was!

Despite a bit of a last minute rush (my fault, not hers), Shannon turned up to the shoot on time, with an absolutely beautiful fae look for our shoot. Her makeup and hair was flawless and she'd even gone so far as to purchase a beautiful dress specifically for the theme.

Though I'd spoken to Shannon via IG before and had some gague of her personality from that, she's even more fun in the flesh! Incredibly down to earth, Shannon is so easy to talk to and puts you at ease in her company as if you'd known her for years and just saw one another yesterday. She has a really unique way of looking at the world and was so much fun to talk to - I love a model with a good sense of humour!

Really sweet, friendly and warm, she enchanted anyone who saw her modelling and she had more than a few compliments as she patiently answered questions or thanked people for their compliments. She'd built up such a good rapport with one passerby when I nipped off for five minutes that we even managed to convince him to assist for briefly (as assistant 'glitter thrower')!

It's obvious that Shannon is a beautiful model to work with - all you have to do is look at her port to see that - but she's also very determined and creative too. Her posing is wonderful, though she takes direction well when required and she goes the extra mile to really get you THE shot. She had loads of fantastic ideas for our set, even going so far as to walk glittery fae footprints round in the mud and building a tiny fairy crucifix for a glittery grave. Now that's dedication for you!

After working with Shannon, I'm convinced that for one, she's actually a real fae in disguise and two, that we will definitely be working together again!

Would I recommend Shannon? Only about 1000%! Thanks for such a lush shoot Shannon - can't wait to show you what we got!

Shannon was amazing to work with, posed naturally and knew what she was doing. The only direction I gave her really was how to hold the crossbow. Loved working with her and will DEFINITELY be working with her again. I cannot recommend her as a model enough.

Shannon showed up for our elf/fae themed shoot in the outfit we discussed with make up and hair done.

Shannon is a fantastic model, throughout the shoot her poses were spot on, took direction well and also came up with her own ideas.

Fantastic lady who has a great sense of humour and working with her was a joy. Looking forward to shooting with Shannon again

Worked with Shannon a couple of times now and have really enjoyed our time together. She's a genuinely creative individual who is always hungry for more. She takes direction very well and re-applies the things you tell her with little to no prompting. I predict she'll be a popular model, and with good reason.

Highly recommended

Worked with Shannon Nicole for the first time recently, and what a pleasure it was. Shannon has great communication pre shoot which made everything clear and straightforward at the outset. Shannon was prompt (early to be fair) and prepared at the outset and interpreted the idea of the shoot well. Shannon is an extremely bubbly character who throws herself into the shoot and makes it an enjoyable experience at the same time. Thoroughly recommended.

My first shoot with Shannon, after noticing her on Instagram. Studio fashion shoot, using gelled lighting which required quite a bit of precision. Although she had never worked in a studio before, she consistently nailed it and was able to take direction when required. The conversation flowed throughout, and the images we got were absolute killers. Very much looking forward to working with her again, which I am sure will not be too far away.

Highly recommended.

No Point Reading This Just Book Her!!

Shannon was the very first person I ever worked with when I started out model photography. What can I say about shannon, Well she is absolutely imcredible! Lovely, and a bundle of joy to work with! Brilliant at taking direction for poses but will happily suggest a few to try or even climb a tree to get a great shot! Will 100% definitely recommend Shannon!💖

If youve read all this well done, but you should have aleady messaged shannon to book a shoot!

After a first successful shoot together, I was very interested in working with Shannon again when we both had availability at the same time.

Again, Shannon was punctual and turned up to the shoot with hair and makeup prepared to a high standard, and with maybe a quick outfit change she was ready to go.

Regrettably the weather wasn't ideal for this shoot as it was extremely cold for Shannon with the chosen outfits for the shoot. However credit is given when its due, and she cracked on with the shoot for as long as she could before she just needed to have a quick warm up before going again.

Shannon is a pleasure to work with and always looks incredible in the images we get together. I would highly recommend her to anyone and the only reason we haven't had shoot three yet is due to the lockdown weve just been through. I look forward to working with Shannon again

As Shannon has only recently joined PP I'm having to remember back almost a year to our first shoot together.

The pre comms with her were excellent, I knew exactly what she was looking to get out of the shoot, and she arrived on time fully prepared for the shoot. When arriving at the location, her hair and makeup were already done to a high standard so we could just jump straight into the shoot.

Shannon requires very little assistance with posing, but does take direction well also.

I'd definitely recommend working with Shannon.
