I would recommend Mike 100% he is a genuine and really lovely fella who compliments and supports models well during shoots. This was my second shoot with him at my house, he is safe, respectful and has a wonderful eye and tallent for capturing some beautiful images. I loveee the raw images let alone the edits to come. I can not recommend him enough to those looking for a social, polite and engaging photographer to work with! 20/10 every time!

This was my first time shooting with Mike and it was an absolute pleasure. We had been meaning to work together for a while now and I'm so happy we finally have!

Mike is lovely, professional, easy to communicate with and incredibly creative. We worked well together and with our ideas combined, we shot some really powerful images. I'm stoked to get the edits back!

10/10 would recommend & would work with again :)

I had the absolute pleasure of shooting with Mike for the first time in January and had such a fantastic time!

Mike is such a lovely, friendly chap, and made me feel totally at ease. The pre-coms were excellent, so both parties knew exactly what they wanted to achieve from the shoot. Mike had some wonderful ideas, and I really feel like we got so much covered in the time we had!

I’m so happy to say that one of our sets has also been published :)

I would 100% recommend Mike and will definitely be working with him in the future!

Working with Mike was a great experience from start to finish.

Pre shoot comms were really helpful with bouncing ideas, arranging a location and date.

I had to postpone our shoot an hour or so and he was totally lovely about it which I really appreciated.

I instantly felt relaxed around Mike and he was respectful with changing and helpful with outfits when needs be.

We shot for around 4 hours with a decent break chatting over a coffee and have booked our next shoot already, which I’m super excited for!

Mike was great at offering direction and was happy to try some of my ideas too, I shot with smoke for the first time too which was totally amazing.

Can not recommend enough, has been the best photoshoot I’ve ever had!

Thankyou so much Mike, can’t wait to work with you again very very soon.

After waiting for our calenders to match I finally got to shoot with Mike. All pre coms were clear, polite and professional. We both got a good feel of the type of shoot we wanted and the kind of images, poses and outfits we had in mind. Mike was happy to drive me to the location and was safe and friendly, reassuring!

On location Mike had packed a brush to clear away glass, dirty etc before I laid, sat etc on surfaces around the farm. He packed tea, a hot water bottle and my warth and comfort was high on his priority list! Whilst it was cold, we took regular breaks to warm up, brain storm and continue. Mike didn’t push or even ask about levels at any point during coms or shooting. A big positive for me, no pressure, relaxed and easy going, how it should be.

Mike had the images uploaded and sent over to me that evening to look through to chose and I had an edit the next morning to share. The rest are being submitted, we got incredible shots!

I couldn’t recommend Mike enough, friendly, safe, reliable, genuine and one of the best photographers Ive worked with so far.

Thanks Mike! :D

Had another shoot with Mike on Saturday. One of many. And they just get better and better. New ideas every time. And amazing new outcomes!!! Communications still great, the shoot isn’t awkward and the end results are amazing!

Looking forward to more shoots to come.

I approached mike with a photo shoot idea involving a duo shoot with myself & my partner with his harley davidson, i knew mike was from the area too which was even better.

This was my second shoot with mike but this time was a location shoot. I sent him some idea's , like wise he did too so we knew what kind of shoot style we could try and achieve from this. I knew of two locations we could use for this, which we used both on the day.

Mike's communication between models is always great.

He showed up, friendly and chatty as always and ready to shoot.

I felt like he communicated really well towards my partner who isn't a model.

Back of camera shot's looked perfect & we have looked through the images taken, & which now we can choose our pictures. They made me smile! :)

We have already briefly said what we would like to shoot next!

Mike is someone i would happily continue to shoot with again and again.

Thank You for accepting the challenge mike , very excited for the images.

Regards from us both mike. :)

Becky Golder

Fantastic shoot with Mike!

Communication before the day was great, we both got some ideas together and owned it. Location was perfect and Mike was a pleasure to work with :)

100% recommended and I can't wait to work together again soon!

Thanks Mike :D

I have been working with mike for around 7 months now and he is my favourite person to work with not only for his talent but for his professionalism and humour!

Mike has recently been finding some epic locations and even I’m in the wow factor for the images we made there. He has such attention to details and really know what he wants to get out of a shoot.

Mike is so easy to work with he’s the sort of guy you can have a cuppa with and just relax and talk about anything. I feel like me and mike have built a great bond and it really shows in my portfolio! He’s pretty much built it and has very helped me improve on myself and my portfolio. Big thanks to mike for always being up for a shoot and being adventurous and making the most out of our shoots! Look forwards to shooting with you tonight! #hesthebestaround xxx

Wow what a photographer! I mean seriously, Mikes portfolio certainly speaks volumes on its own! I’d been following Mike for a few years and was so pleased when he showed up on my Scarletdoor workshop, absolutely made my day! Easy to free flow with and a perfect gentleman! Hope to see you again soon lovely 😊 highly recommended x

Met mike for the first time today, along with another model for a duo lingerie shoot.

Mike was on time , friendly through out and gives good direction as to what he’s after.

Pre comms were brilliant! And even bought along photo ideas with him.

The shoot was 4 hours but went so quickly!

I’d happily shoot with mike again, and 100% would recommend him.

Thanks mike, can’t wait to the images, back of the camera shots look fab.

I've shot with Mike twice now and both shoots were wonderful.

he is an incredibly talented photographer and all of my favourite images are his.

His edits are also really creative and he captures imagery perfectly.

He is kind and understanding and gives a very comfortable and relaxed vibe.

i'm looking forward to our next studio shoot and hopefully many more with Mike

I did a location shoot with Mike and it was a great experience!

He was very friendly and comfortable to be around. He also gave helpful direction and had a good eye for interesting backgrounds.

I did both solo shots and joint shots with other models, and the images were brilliant!

I'm happy to recommend him!

I had such a wonderful first shoot with Mike earlier this week!

His communication before hand was great and he even drew me a map so that I knew where to go!

We shot on location and even with just natural light he lit me in such a flattering and wonderful way. Mike gave clear direction and whilst shooting had great communication about what he wanted and was extremely friendly.

The back of camera pictures were amazing and we were both really happy.

I would recommend Mike 100% and hope we can work together again soon
