Today I had my first shoot with Stephen and so happy with the result! Stephen drove 2 hours to the location (which I really appreciate) to make it happen. He brought impressive selection of boho outfits and accessories which benefited every set we did. I would definitely recommend to shoot with Stephen and would be more than happy to shoot with him again.

After my first shoot with Steve I can confidently recommend him. I knew the shoot would be great and he did not disappoint.

He’s full of creative ideas and somehow put up with my moaning about how cold I was. He really involves you in the process and shows you the images throughout. The results are just amazing and I can’t wait to receive the rest of them.

Other than that, he’s just a really down to earth, kind and genuine guy with a great sense of humour and I hope to work with him again soon.

Thanks again Steve- highly recommend !

Definitely recommend and would shoot again!

I had such a wonderful shoot with Stephen where he picked me up at 6 am and took us to a location not far from my house!

Throughout the shoot he was so considerate of me being pregnant and allowed me to work at my own pace! He was so lovely and made me feel comfortable from start to finish!

We managed to get some beautiful images and I would recommend Stephen to absolutely anyone and everyone! 100% recommended he is truly lovely to work with :-)

I had such a fun shoot with Stephen yesterday! His very kind and friendly and was forever cracking jokes 😁 He showed me the photos after every few takes and made sure I was happy ☺️ Such a lovely guy and I’d definitely recommend:)

I have been in touch with Stephen for some time as I love his work and I'm really pleased we finally got to work together. Stephen makes photography look so easy. He clearly knows his style and knows what he's looking for so he's very fast to get some great shots. I thought it was a really good way to work.

We had plenty of outfit changes. Stephen even brought along a few dresses as well (for me obviously not him haha!). I think we could have easily got carried away chatting with out doing much shooting as he's really easy to get on with and talk to.

I realised I didn't even look at the time during the shoot. We just went along with what we were happy with without time restraints and called it a day when we felt like we'd got more than enough great shots!

Definitely recommended!

Cheers for a creative and surreal day stephen! It was really cool to combine mine and your inventive brain thoughts and fabrics and then make some cool images. It was actually what i was hoping for and expected:

Stephens aptitude for light and eye for detail is the magic touch that was needed to ace our images. I approached stephen to ask if he would work with me because i knew that he would be brilliant.

I think trust is the most important aspect of working collab with another artist. You can give your trust that stephen is not just a kind person to be around and that you will be safe but you can also have the trust in his work and that the images will be beautiful.

Cheers Steve - give me a shout if you wanna create more fun stuff or if you are passing this way.

I had my first shoot with Stephan today and it was my favourite shoot that i have ever done by far.

His images are so perfect and you don't need me to tell you that.

like they are literally flawless in ever way.

He also brought with some really cool items to shoot with.

He has a very specific and artistic view point which really shows as the images are beyond beautiful.

not only that but he's really nice and easy to talk to. He's funny as well and also really professional but in a cool way.

I would honestly shoot with him every day of the week if i could and i hope we get to shoot again.

highly highly highly recommended.

I had my first shoot with Stephen today and I was blown away.. this guy is a genius, he really knows how to make a location work. Incredibly creative and a real eye for detail make for time spent in front of his lense very enjoyable.

His pre shoot communication was great, he drove to my area of the woods and found locations in my small town I didn’t even know existed. He brought an erray of perfectly size matched outfits aswell which made for some fantastic images. Once we started shooting Stephens communication continued to be on point, always making sure I had seen the boc shots and that I was happy with everything. It was a really fun shoot!

I have been sent back very high quality edits already and couldn’t be happier with the images we shot. Stephen is a real all round gentleman to be around, a right laugh and a complete professional.

Highly reccomended by me and I look forward to working together again some time.

Many thanks

Had a amazing first shoot with Stephen today. So glad I got the chance to shoot with Stephen. Came across his port a while ago and loved everything about his images! :)

His pre com's were fantastic! Kept in contact, loads of ideas got sent over and he even found a location to shoot around my area which I hadn't been before and must say it was spot on! He came and picked me up drove us to the location and back again.

His communication on the shoot was perfect , Stephen really does have an eye for the right image he is after, pays attention to detail and gets the shot!. Always came over and showed me the back of the camera shots too. Which the images look fantastic! He's So friendly, chatty and easy to get on with.

He was very respectful whilst around me and changing outfit's in the woods , kept an eye out for any Sunday walker's and even used his light reflector so I could change behind it ( clever thinking!) :)

All in all I very much enjoyed the shoot from start to finish. He makes it very easy to model for him and I felt relaxed in every shot.

Would highly recommend Stephen, if you get the chance to shoot with him its so worth it! Would happily shoot with Stephen again :)

Time flew by!

Already had a few images sent to me! And very much looking forward to seeing the rest.

Thanks Stephen.

Had another lovely shoot with Stephen j, and what can I say that I haven’t already said. So much fun, open to ideas and suggestions and even though the weather was horrific we had so much fun. Couldn’t recommend enough :) xx

Had the chance to shoot with this photographer recently and I’m so glad I made the trip. I shot with him in a woodland area assisted but his beautiful partner Anjelica Hyde and what a productive few hours it turned out to be. Stephen made sure I was looked after throughout the shoot and takes a very laid back approach to shooting which makes for a very relaxed model! Stephen knows how to set up the best shot and his styling sense is top notch; it was really just effortless to model for him and the images so far have been dark, edgy and beautiful and of such a high quality (raw images and after post processing). Thank you for the McDonald’s and an amazing shoot!

I had my first shoot with Stephen and it was awesome.

He is a really chatty funny guy which makes the shoot a lot of fun. Pre comms where great and he had some dresses that I was able to borrow for the shoot.

We went to the woods to shoot and got some beautiful shots. I am really happy with how the photos came out and can't wait to see the final edits.

I would definitely recommend Stephen and would love to work with him again!

Thank you Stephen :)

My second shoot with Stephen and it was as effortless and amazing as our first one. So much fun and beautiful images over and over with some amazing direction which I will remember from now on. Hopefully get to work together again because I honestly love every aspect of shooting together. Massively recommend, you’ll never regret it xxxx

HelloKatie

I had my first shoot with Stephen and it was awesome! :)

We went to a couple of locations in some woods close to where he lives.

He is a really nice, funny and chatty guy and we had a good laugh all through the shoot, with lots of different shots in lots of changes of dresses too :)

We didn't even let the rain put us off halfway through, in fact, Stephen was happy to create some beautiful shots in the rain - with wet hair :)

Stephen gave good direction and was happy to let me pose myself too. He showed me the shots on the back of the camera and they looked absolutely amazing - and what can I say about his final edits other than WOW!!

He creates such beautiful moments in time and I am SO happy with the results.

His work is stunning, hes a fab guy, definitely work with him if you get the chance :)

Thank you Stephen

This dudes awesome!

Stephen was very understanding when I had to postpone our original date due to myself being ill. But I am so glad we got the chance to shoot today.

Pre comms were great, the location he had was awesome and we even managed to use another erm glam spot should I say ;) to get another totally different style. Stephen is easy to get on with, relaxed and goes with the flow what is very much my way too.

From what I've seen so far I'm so happy!

Looking forward to our next one and very highly recommend him to all!

Had a lovely shoot with Stephen today! Pre comms were great and prompt.He was kind enough to provide some amazing princess dresses and accessories! He knows how to work with natural light insanely well and is very good at spotting perfect little areas for photos. Super happy with the back of camera shots and excited to see everything. Will be organising something else with him when he can find some spare time!

Had an AMAZING shoot with Stephen after not seeing him for a few years since an event at WindmillArt back when I was still a wee seedling model

His work style has changed so much but he is still absolutely lovely to work with :D

Hopefully his first FPI model can get another XD
