I FINALLY got to work with Steve on a group shoot after a very long time of chatting and much admiration for His work!!! I knew together we’d create awesome images! And I think we did!! The conditions were very difficult- the sun was very high and there was very little shadow! But Steve rose to the challenge! He made lots of fantastic suggestions as well as listening to any suggestions myself or the other photographers made.

He worked really well with the other photographers and was very respectful of their space.

I love that Steve asks the models opinion about the shots. He trusts their input and I think it really shows in his work that he’s thought about every aspect!

He is a very skilled photographer And very creative! I loved his different angles and interesting compositions!! They really enhance the poses often and I think that’s part of what makes Steve’s work really stand out!!

He was so chatty throughout! Very humble!! Very easy to like straight away. Lots of fun - always cracking jokes which was fab!! Respectful and considerate- and always offered a hand if the model needed it!!

I really hope I get to work with Steve again as I think a 1-2-1 shoot together would just make for some amazing images!! Very highly recommended by me!!

I worked with Steve at the Bala Beauties event at in June. I had longed to work with Steve after seeing many on his images over the years, and his photographer continues to always improve. It was a pleasure to have finally got to work with him, although brief with the group of photographers being split into 2, but the images we created between us were just outstanding.

Steve is super friendly, relaxed, respectful, clearly passionate about his photography and knows exactly what he’s looking for in getting that perfect shot in the little time he even has. Great at planning ahead and giving out directions. I hope to sometime work with Steve again whether this be on a group shoot or a 1-2-1 basis, alfhough1-2-1 would help us to have more set time to create a variety of some more fabulous imagery.

Thanks again Steve for coming and helping to make it an enjoyable day

I enjoyed my second wonderful shoot with the lovely Steve today in windy but beautiful Snowdonia.

Since working with Steve the first time we have become good friends and have been planning a second shoot as part of his ongoing project.

Shooting with Steve is a delight, he is extremely knowledgeable about the area sourcing great locations and views and making sure the shoot ran smoothly.

Steve is respectful and made sure I was warm and comfortable throughout, chatty and a good laugh, he even took some amazing images of myself and my partner at the end of the day which was a lovely treat.

Highly recommended and can't wait to shoot again.

I finally had the great pleasure of working with Mr Jones last weeks after initially chatting when I began my modelling journey.

I was chosen to be part of a group of models shot by steve and Paul.

Steve had done so much research prior to the shoot and found the most beautiful location for us to work from, there were beautiful views,woodland,old buildings you couldn't have asked for more.

Steve is such a lovely guy and so easy to work with.I decided to team up with the ever lovely Silk as we always work well together and Steve gave us great creative freedom allowing us to run wild with our ideas,he captured great shot after great shot and was patient enough to let us see the back of the camera as the shoot progressed.

A absolute sweetheart to work with and a very talented photographer, Edits were sent very quickly and edited to a amazing standard, highly recommended and can't wait to work together again.

Another awesome shoot with Steve yesterday as part of a group shoot, we managed to get some absolutely fantastic images! This time I travelled North to Steve's beautiful part of the world, he had organised two beautiful locations for us to use. One was a derelict mining village and the other was Harlech beach... just wow to both! He is a great photographer and is very enthusiastic, I really like the energy he brings to a shoot! Always polite, thoughtful and an absolute gent. Precommunications are always perfect, short and sweet but all info and details covered.

Can'y wait to see the results :)

Hopefully work with you again sometime soon.

Highly recommended to all models.

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting and working with Steven today for the first time, what a gorgeous shoot it was!

We had been in talks for a while, then luckily for me he was travelling my way to shoot with Cariad. So we organised a shoot. The shoot itself was short and sweet but absolutely amazing at the same time!! I took him to a coastal location near me and it was beautiful, we managed to get serveral awesome images!

Steven is an absolute gentleman, kind and considerate and a bloody good photographer. Great eye for an amazing shot, and he worked brilliantly in difficult light conditions. Can't wait to see the final images :D

Highly recommended to all models.

Thank you so much for such a great shoot, hopefully work with you again sometime soon!

I had my first shoot (Hopefully not the last) with the awesome Steve!! After almost 3 years of correspondence and lots of bad luck on both sides we finally got to shoot.

It was everything I had hoped for and more. Steve is fantastic at what he does, he has a great eye for detail and is full of ideas. Highly professional and friendly, I was comfortable throughout.

We got to explore a forestry area and were blessed with the light! The images I have seen unedited are fab, I cant wait to see the finals.

Steves correspondences are perfect and the day went like a dream.

Definitely highly recommended! A must work with fellow!

I hope to work with this true gent again in the near future!

Thank you for a lovely day :)

Had a lovely relaxed shoot with Steve and another model. Steve is great to work with, friendly and professional and happy to work with your ideas as well as provide his own. Great comms in the run up so everyone was clear on themes and ideas and happy to go with the flow on the day.

I'd definitely work with Steve again and happily recommend him.

I had a great shoot with Steve this morning around Sunny Rhyl harbour :-) Steve is cool, we shot some suited fashion around the harbour and blue Bridge. The weather was perfect too, which added to the effect that was required.

We nailed a lot of cool images from the looks of behind the camera. I highly recommend working with Steve and look forward to working with him again soon.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Steve last week and I'm so glad I finally did.

We hit it off like a house on fire and the results show it. Absolutely stunning.

Steve has a great eye to detail, perfect angles, great to talk to, good sense of humour... The list could go on and on.

If you get the chance to work with Steve, jump at it. You won't be disappointed.

Highly recommended by me with 5 stars *****

Until next time Steve, thank you.

Had another fantastic shoot with steve yesterday. The shoot didn't quite go as we had planned due to the weather being different to what we expected, but even so, we got some KILLER images. Steve really impressed me with this shoot and I'm already planning our next one! :D

Had a wonderful shoot with Steve today. Was very friendly and even drove us all to location which was lovely. The shoot was full of giggles and he didn't get angry with my short attention span! If the photographs are even half good as the shoot was I'll be a very happy girl! Would definitely recommend and will be working with again!

Kitty Von Crypt
