This was my second shoot with Stephen. Him and Anjelica were nice enough to pick me up from work so we could take some awesome pictures!

I really enjoyed the shoot! Stephen is a very nice guy and I enjoyed our short conversation in politics!

He took some awesome images of me and the locations were gorgeous...I got muddy, wet and almost sat on some spikes but I wouldn't change any of it.

I really did enjoy the shoot and we even lost my glasses becausee of all the excitement...it was strange because they appeared in the weirdest of places. But all good because Stephen found them for me.

Thanks for an amazing shoot and I hope we get to shoot again soon!

Thank you

Got to meet Stephen on a shoot with Anjelica Hyde. He was a lovely person who had plenty of input and advice for the shoot and a fantastic help!

Also managed to work together on a quick shoot in which he was brilliant with direction and sent me a few beautifully edited images already!

Easy to get along with and very welcoming, I would love the opportunity to work with him again!

Would 100% recommend him!

My first shoot with Stephen today and what a wonderful photographer he is.

Handy with fixing dresses and knows a thing or two about getting the absolute perfect lighting. Extremely efficient with great feedback throughout the shoot, he showed me the results constantly and explained the technicalities behind getting them to look absolutely fabulous every time. He made sure I was comfortable and happy. Always giving me a hand and there exactly when I needed him. I thoroughly recommend working with Stephen and guarantee an excellent photographer and a very friendly guy.

Thankyou!

I've met Steve several times but had the pleasure of shooting with him for the first time yesterday!! Steve is absolutely fantastic, easy to get along with and had no problem travelling up to me and shooting around this area. The shoot itself was wonderful with plenty of creativity being thrown around and although quite fast paced compared to many of my shoots the atmosphere was still very relaxed and great to work in!! Steve was also most obliging to rescue me from a number of spiders and creepy crawlies :D

Results I've already seen both back of the camera and edited are marvellous but I don't really need to say that as you can see from his glittering portfolio :D I would absolutely work with Steve again and from me he is very highly recommended! x

I had a wonderful shoot with Stephen at the weekend.

He was able to source a location nearby me which I had never used before. We worked on many different sets some fashion, some portrait but, we also did some movement work which involved me running around the woods - well, I was appreciative of this because I needed a workout. :)

Stephen, made me feel relaxed and at ease even when I got a bit weirded out over some creepy crawlies, I do sometimes suffer from slight entomophobia when shooting on location. :D

The shoot was fun and Stephen takes fantastic pictures, jobs a goodun'

I would love to work with again.

I most highly recommend him to all!

I had my first shoot with Steve on Sunday and it was absolutely fantastic! Pre comms were brilliant and I was really excited about working with him as I am a huge fan of his work. Steve is a really lovely guy, has a great sense of humour, and is super easy to get on with. He is very professional and has loads of creative ideas. Steve was very organised and had even bought a big bag of dresses and other items which I used on the day. I had so much fun and I am over the moon with the photos so far! 110% recommended and I would most definitely work with Steve again. Thank you so much for an awesome shoot!

I had been excited for my opportunity to work with Steve for weeks prior to our shoot as his portfolio stood out a mile to me, and was not let down in the slightest - Steve was accommodating, easygoing, and an all round great laugh for the duration, I could have happily kept shooting into the night!

He had plenty of brilliant, inspiring locations in mind but was very attentive and open to ideas and feedback. He was exceptionally mindful that I was happy with the results and went out of his way to ensure we both got what we wanted out of the day.

Two days on I'm already seeing fantastic images from the day, couldn't recommend working with him enough and would jump at the chance to work with him again, thank you Steve! x

My second shoot with Steve was awesome, and like before, I've already received images after only a couple of days which I love. We managed to get the first set we did to feature in 'FAE magazine' and I know why - because his style of photography creates images which seem to tell a story, with a touch of fantasy and mystery to them, invoking intrigue and wonder!

Steve kept me amused throughout our shoot with his usual brand of humour during downpours of rain.. the drizzle actually added a nice element to the pictures and locations! :) Such a fun day, totally recommended!

I had a wonderful shoot with Stephen after a epic journey down south.

Stephen is a really nice person, easy to talk to and very laid back which makes for a better shoot, he doesn't need to take hundreds of images to achieve what he needs to and the results are beautiful.

Stephen was very kind and considerate and I would happily work with him again, he even threw in a Macdonalds post shoot, you know how much us models like out Maccies hehe.

Overall a thoroughly enjoyable shoot, highly recommended and would definitely like to shoot with again. Thank you Stephen x

I had a fantastic shoot with Stephen on Saturday, I was chuffed to get the opportunity to shoot with him. I love his style of photography and I am thoroughly in love with the shots that I've been sent so far!

Stephen was great to work with, has a wicked sense of humour and was totally friendly and down to earth.

Would definitely work with you again and I would recommend him to every model.

Awesome photography and great post production skills.

Thank you, Layla X

had a really relaxing location shoot with Stephen, wonderfully talented photographer and very good at working with natural light. He chose a splendid location and the weather was brilliant. Stephen is very relaxed and easy going with lots of ideas on how to make use of the surroundings, he can literally see beautiful pictures in everything around him and captures the most interesting moments on the camera as if by magic. Thoroughly recommended and cant wait to see the results as others have said, the shots you can see on the back of the camera even before editing begins, are really lovely.

On my travels I was very near to where Stephen lives and I couldn't leave the opportunity to work with him. It may have been last minute but I was determined!

Stephen is a fantastic photographer and he also brought along another brilliant photographer, two for the price of one! How could anyone refuse that.

He was on time and very well prepared. Stephen is polite and full of great ideas. I adore the images he has produced and wouldn't hesitate for a second to work with him again. So when I'm back in you're area Stephen you better be ready for round two!

A serious pleasure to meet and work with, I'd recommend him to anyone.

Thanks for the fantastic day and the lovely images.

All the best,

Rachelle

Had a fantastic shoot with Stephen a couple of weeks ago. He travelled to me and we drove to a local nature reserve, chatting all the way. Steve is a such a friendly and relaxed guy, we got on very well and we had such a fun shoot, laughing and exploring as we went. Pre coms were great and Steve was also very kind in terms of communication throughout, checking with what I was comfortable with etc. I absolutely love the pictures so far!! He has an incredible talent which is obvious from his portfolio. I would absolutely recommend Steve to anyone and hope to shoot with him again!

I recently had the pleasure of modelling for Stephen on location.. not only is he awesome fun to be around he is also a very talented chap and has an amazing eye to create the most aesthetically pleasing images. The back of the cameras looked splendiferous.. a master at work.. and he can also talk to horses.. which was proper handy on the day!!! Ha!! ;)

Highly recommended.. I look forward to rocking in front of his camera again soon! :)

I had a lovely shoot with Stephen yesterday! Stephen had great communication before the shoot, discussing location, time and clothing. He turned up on time and was very welcoming. He gave me good direction and made sure I was happy with each set, before moving on. He has a great sense of humour, so you will always have a laugh on one of his shoots! Already seen 3 photos and I am very happy! I would definitely recommend Stephen and I would definitely work with him again!

Thank you for a lovely shoot Stephen!

Had an AWESOME second shoot with Stephen, I had always wanted to shoot on a beach so we thought while the weather is reeealy good we would take the chance.

Stephen is a pretty epic photographer as you can tell via his images and his references.

Stephen is easy to work with, very relaxed and just a joy to work with. The man has vision!

I highly recommend Stephen as i have before, our communication was flawless and we just throw ideas around all day long!

Stephen was spectacular! I loved every minute of our shoot together :-)

Comms was brilliant, discussing ideas/themes/clothes/levels to a good level so that I felt I was prepared before the shoot,

On the day we found a lovely set of woods near me (thankyou again for driving so far!) and we got to work on finding different locations and sets. Stephen's eye for light and scene/composition really helped us to identify some beautiful areas, achieving stunning results.

As a newer model, Stephen helped me enormously with working on my technique, ('forehead' comes to mind!) which is always enormously appreciated.

Brilliant guy to work with, great sense of humour and really easy-going. 100% rebook!

Had my first shoot with Stephen on Tuesday after wanting to work with him for ages.

Stephen is absolutely lovely and great fun to work with, friendly, easy going and full of ideas. I had an absolute blast shooting with him and am already looking forward to the next one. The edits I've had back are great and exactly what I was hoping for.

Would recommend him to anybody

I finally got to work with this amazing individual!

So happy! He is a wonderful photographer who has a knack for creating such a relaxed and fun atmosphere, his sense of humour had me giggling throughout the shoot....

Stephen is so easy to shoot with, his way with the camera is mesmirising and the images he has sent over are some of my fave of this year.....I can't recommend him enough to y'all, what an absolute legend :)
