I had a brilliant shoot with Steve as a group studio day with JenniJJ and Jackie R at Rococo Farm.

Steve arrived on time although he drove long distance from where he lived to Rococo Farm. Steve knew what he wanted to achieve and he gave us clear directions and also the use of beautiful 3 different colour of material was brilliant. Steve was very creative, calmly enthusiastic and also a very friendly gentleman.

Thank you for the great shoot. I am really looking forward to work with him again!

Had a fabulous shoot yesterday with Steve. He drove quite a distance and arrived on time at Rococo Farm studio. Steve precommunation was excellent leading upto our shoot explaining what he wanted to achieve for our group shoot. Steve is a really friendly and chatty guy that was professional at all times. Think Steve was more than happy with results. Thank you again Steve for a fabulous shoot.

Steve came to my urbex event at the X Factory and was so much fun to work with. We got on instantly and were soon chatting away and bouncing ideas around. We shot a range of different styles around the building and stayed inspired from the start to the last minute! He's a genuine, lovely, creative person who is interesting to talk to, with great images- I loved the ones I saw in the back of the camera. I'd recommend him to any model!

Thankyou again! :)

I don't quite know how it's possible as we've been shooting for many years but every shoot we do just seems to get better and better.

You arrived at my house bang on time, just as expected and straight away the conversation was off. You are a found of knowledge and such a genuine chap....that never ages. Friendly, professional, caring, the list goes on.

I 110% highly recommend you to all and I would and do work with you, without hesitation. :) xX

Shooting with Steve was a total pleasure. Steve booked on to my studio day at Sandon, and together we had a really productive shoot.

I contacted Steve before the shoot to ask if he had any specific ideas in mind, and together we came up with a small list of themes for us to shoot, including some 60's themes!

He was punctual on the day of the shoot, and was just a total joy. His humour and kind nature helped me to relax immediately - Steve is very easy to get along with. His direction is clear ad precise, yet he also allowed me to go with my own flow as well.

We had a great time, and Steve got some lovely images. I would certainly work with Steve again, and recommend him confidently.

I shot with Steve on a wonderful event at Darklens Studio recently - he is a lovely, professional and respectful fellow who has a real eye for light!

It was a total pleasure meeting and shooting with Steve on Monday evening!

Having spoken for quite a while and just never managing to shoot it was lovely putting a face to the name too :)

Although it was a group shoot we did manage to have a little natter and get to know each other a bit and Steve seems absolutely lovely - a true gentleman!

Would more than happily recommend him :)

What a beautiful day it was on my event day and lovely to have worked with Steve again. We had a long break but working with Steve is so flowing and feels like we have worked again just the other day. I liked the props especially the rainbow outfit! Steve is polite, easy to get along with and has loads of courtesy. He directs well and does have an idea of what he would like to achieve. Thank you Steve for embracing my idea of event and for contributing to it. I have already seen some end results and love them. Thank you again

Definitely recommended

It was a pleasure to have Steve along for a workshop yesterday at Click Away Studio with French Chloe.

Steve is a long-time admirer of Chloe's work, and clearly has good shooting chemistry with her. He was easy to get along with, and interacted well with the other photograpehrs.

He knows what he wants to achieve, and expresses this clearly, but always kindly and politely - it was a pleasure to share a studio with him. Thanks, Steve - I hope we meet again soon!

This lovely gentleman got in touch with me with the expression of interest to shoot during my latest tour of the South West - it was our first time working together and I am so glad he reached out because it was one of those situations where I was passing through his area to go further South so I would literally pick my route based on my shooting path so if Steve hadn't have shouted across just at the right time then we could have never had such a wonderful shoot!

The shoot took place at Steve's home; where he has a fantastic personal studio set-up, as well as various areas of the house which make for great shooting spaces. This creatively positive because it meant we had the best of both worlds with a controlled light/backdrop environment plus the natural/sunlit environment to create images around these settings and make full use of the facilities/atmosphere they offered. :) The other "pro" was that Steve had his own collection of wardrobe items which we had immediate access to at his place and barely needed to even open mine except for mainly shoes! He has a great eye for styling a scene and shot to produce a beautiful serene picture around a specific theme and is equipped with all the accessories to bring each idea to life. It was really nice working with someone who clearly puts a high level of passion into his visual interest of photography... He knows exactly what he wants to achieve from the concepts and works with the model to make it happen involving then in the creative process so everyone has a place in bringing ideas to the table. A truly wonderful person and photographer he was to spend the afternoon with on our short but productive shoot in Kidderminster. :D

Steve was extremely kind and thoughtful; he had got together some snacks/refreshments for me upon arrival for energy boosts since I was on tour and had just come from another shoot. Though not a fundamental requirement for a shoot, it is really nice when a photographer thinks of these little touches because much of the time there is no time to get food when travelling between shoots on a narrow schedule. But Steve got the delicious tea on the go, biccies/fruit - you name it! He's a really thoughtful person in this sense and most certainly strives to make models feel welcome and appreciated. The exceptional hospitality was imminent from start to finish and Steve encouraged a relaxed pace with breaks wherever needed. A true professional in his approach and someone I would recommend very highly to my fellow models. :)

His communications in the beginning were brilliant too, the whole shoot was perfect and I most certainly hope that Steve and I can work together gain in the not too distant future.

Finally worked with Steve on my tour after a few past messages! He was very welcoming and made a little refreshments platter for me. We caught the last of the natural light for the first hour then moved onto studio, got some lovely photos! Lovely man and I would have no problem in recommending him to others. Thanks Steve!
