This was my first shoot with Stephen at Harbour Studio, and what a shoot it was! We had too many ideas and not enough time it flew over! We managed to get several sets done and I'm over the moon with all of them! Everything we tried worked well and I can't wait to see the edited results. Stephen is a kind and chatty person with a professional manor and respectful of a models levels. He is very pleasant to work with. I highly recommend him to all models.

Already looking forward to our next encounter, thanks again for today Stephen. It was an absolute pleasure working with you.

I shot with Stephen on my last tour in York. He took me to an amazing location, a ruin of a castle! He was respectful and considerate all the time. He was making sure I'm safe and not cold. It was a pleasure to shoot with him and I hope to catch you next time!

Stephen booked two hours with me early morning in Whitby while I was back visiting my family for the summer! He booked fairly last minute which suited me fine! LOVED working with him and Victoria in my home town! We had such a great shoot, and the images looked fantastic! They were both happy to let me lead the shoot and offer suggestions/angles/locations/outfits etc. They did not over-direct me which is great,and they were both respectful, professional and friendly! Very highly recommended

Had my first shoot with stevie and what a gentleman.

The shoot was well planned and he had some great ideas as well as a fabulous studio that also offered location. Fabulous research for stevie.

Stevie is a polite tog who is very professional and easy to get along with the shoot was fun and totally different from my usual stuff which was an added bonus!

I got to look at the images as we went along and got lots of ideas, the creative side of stevie shows very well throughout his personality and his work.

You need to book this tog if you get the chance :)

Yay, so happy I finally got the chance to work with this fab photographer!

I had a long shoot a couple of hours before my evening shoot with Stephen, I actually ended up falling asleep on the studios bed after my first shoot, I woke up 20 minutes before my shoot with Stevie, so I may not have been my chirpy, bouncy and a little bit mad self.

He's really easy to get along with and holds interesting conversation which made it way more enjoyable, especially in my grumpy morning state :P

He had a few sets in mind and called the studio before to ask if it was possible to black out a room ready for a shoot idea he had, which we absolutely smashed.

He set the challenge of using just candle light which we were really happy with from the back of the camera.

He has a real interest in portraits.. And is good at them to!

It was an absolute pleasure to work with you and I hope we can make it possible next time I'm up north, I'll always look forward to working with this lovely, creative soul!

*highly recommended*

Many thanks for an enjoyable and productive shoot,

I answered a casting call that Stephen sent. Pre shoot communication was great. We discussed ideas. On the day I arrived ready to shoot as did Stephen and he was great at giving direction. He made the shoot enjoyable and made me feel relaxed and at ease whilst remaining professional throughout. I definitely recommend Stephen to others and I'm looking forward to seeing the finished results. Hope to work with him again some day.

Well.....what a chap Stephen is! :D I really enjoyed my shoot with him! :D

Pre comms weit Stephen were perfect! Very prompt arrival to my home as it was a home shoot we did. I had to stop myself chatting as Stephen is so easy to talk to! he instantly made me feel comfortable and it was clear that it would be a great shoot and it was!

Stephen was respectful and professional throughout and made me laugh and smile lots!

Stephen has such a great attitude and presence. I really enjoyed his company and working with him! Our shoot was very relaxed and chatty yet we got lots done! He is very eager to learn and was happy to listen to any of my suggestions as well as bringing his own awesome ideas to the shoot! I saw some great images on the back of the camera!

A really lovely chap, and I would love to shoot with Stephen again! I'd happily recommend him!

Had a great last minute shoot with Stevie today and it was a real pleasure. I instantly felt comfortable and Stevie was a joy to be around, down to earth, friendly and very respectful. We shot at both a derelict farm and a studio. Stevie had lots of cool ideas, always made sure that I was comfortable and encouraged my ideas too. It was a real pleasure, thanks Stevie

Highly recommended

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Stevie recently and he's possibly one of the nicest photographers I've worked with. Being very relaxed and open to both planned and new ideas during the shoot, Stevie was more than happy to explore new ideas and we laughed from start to finish. I haven't modelled for almost a year but within a few minutes of shooting I felt totally relaxed and confident in his presence! I would highly recommend Stevie to anyone who is looking for a friendly, sociable tog!

Thanks again for allowing me to work with you! :D
