Nigel has booked a shoot at Zavod a while back and although we unfortunately had to postpone the booking, the pre-comms were excellent.

During the shoot, Nigel was very very kind and built a strong rapport with the model - I was really chuffed as the atmosphere in the studio was great :)

I was shown some back of the camera and I really liked with he has captured; he was working with my new lights that got delivered that morning so I actually haven't got a chance to test them myself. Nigel did that instead!

Would absolutely love to have him back at the studio anytime.

100% recommend.

Thank you for your visit! Until next time,

Xenia at Zavod.

I replied to Nigel casting call looking for a model for a lingerie group shoot in Birmingham. Very happy he decided to work with me. Nigel pre communication were on spot. He sent details useful for the shoot, the name of the other model, Angel, which was absolutely a great choice and moodbord.

On the day he welcomed me, showing me around the different set up and introducing me to the other photographers.

He was well organized, brought plenty of snacks and drink.

Great photographer, professional all the way through and a very lovely person. He took great shots and can’t wait to see the final result!

The full shoot day run very smoothly, all the other photographers attending were very nice and took great shots! I very much enjoyed it.

I would be very happy to shoot with him again and hopefully we will :) recommended to any creatives! Thank you Nigel for the great day!

After initially meeting through the remote shoot world, I had the pleasure of working with Nigel in person during recent group shoot that he organised in the superb Lampworks, Birmingham. His pre shoot communications were excellent, very thoroughly planned, which is always necessary especially with group shoots! Not only were his pre shoot comms great, but his set planning and other model choice of the day were also great.

He was a joy to work with, very understanding of the needs of the models and totally professional throughout.

The whole shoot ran smoothly and all the attending photographers had a fab selection of images by the end!

I'd highly recommend working with Nigel and will be doing so again in a couple of weeks at Gloucester! See you shortly!

Thankyou for a fantastic shoot!

Nigel an I arranged a shoot, albeit a remote one, and what a joy it was. From start to finish, pre written communications to virtually talking over Zoom, everything ran smoothly. His pre shoot communications were excellent, well thought out, properly planned and he was perfectly happy for me to style the sets for our shoot which focused on some of my Honey Birdette collection!

During the shoot itself, he was polite and professional, very friendly and approachable and with never a single complaint during the setting up and taking down of sets - he truly was a gentleman.

I enjoyed the shoot, and look forward to working with him again in the future, I'm already looking forward to our next booked shoots!

Thankyou for a fantastic shoot!

I was invited to model for a group shoot that Nigel organised in Birmingham. It was so lovely to meet up with Nigel again as it had been a few years since our last shoot. The shoot was organised beautifully and the wardrobe selection that Wass provided was impeccable, so many stunning options, it was great to have a choice of some new outfits to use. The event went smoothly and everyone was pleased with their results, the ideas, lighting and execution of the sets was brilliant. I look forward to hopefully working with Nigel and his group again in the near future :)

Thanks for a great shoot,

Nigel visited for the first time with Carla Monaco and what a pleasure it was having him at the studio. Such a shame he lives so far away as he is a really lovely gentleman and I'd happily have him back. He was very respectful of the studio and the Carla and they created some great images together.

Shot for the first time with Nigel on Wednesday, we shot virtually and it was great!

Nigel was lovely to work with,he gave great feedback throughout of the shoot which made it flow really well. He was very relaxed which gave a great approach.

Despite technical issues with retrieving the photos,Nigel was very patient and I appreciated that, once the images had came through,it was clear there were so many great ones!

Thoroughly enjoyed working with Nigel, he was very pleasant and I hope to shoot with him again! I would definitely recommend booking in with him!

I had a wonderful remote shoot with Nigel today at my home studio.

This was Nigel's first remote shoot and I am happy to say he really enjoyed the experience and we got some amazing results, so pleased.

Nigel is super easy person to work with, he is patient, fun, kind and professional.

We bounced ideas off each other and tried different lighting set-ups including some Hollywood noir lighting which worked amazing.

I am so glad Nigel enjoyed this new way of shooting since we can't currently work face to face as normal. Happy to recommend Nigel to other creatives out there.

Thank you for a fab shoot.

Lovely guy who had a great range of ideas planned - we had a moodboard to start us of and it developed from there!

I had a lovely shoot with Nigel while at ''Back to the 70s'' event in Hacienda studio and hopefully we will be able to work together again one day!

Nigel is such an amazing person to work with! He was really polite and respectful and at the same time it was great to chat with him as he's so friendly and easy going :)! He is also a great photographer, images we created are beautiful and definitely have this 70s vibe.

I would definitely recommend working with him.Thank you and looking forward to working with you again! :)

I've worked with Nigel a few times now but this is our first actual photoshoot! (usually I'm doing video interviews etc with Nigel). I also got to work with him at Studio Fifty Eight for the first time as well. Nigel wanted to go for a retro looks and we pulled off some awesome sets and styles.

Nigel is great fun to work with! The 4 hours seemed to fly by. Nigel is fun, chatty and really easy to work with.

Highly recommended. Looking forward to what ever might be next!

I had a great shoot with Nigel at SS Creative Studio! He arrived on time, and right from the get-go I knew it was going to be a great shoot. We worked through a range of ideas and worked together with ease. He is really respectful and a really fun guy to shoot with.

I'd definitely recommend working with him to anyone that is thinking of working with him!

I was lucky enough to have Nigel join me for four hours on my recent 'Back to the 70's' event at the Hacienda.

We all went back nearly 50 years on entering the studio- the mixture of 70's music, the mustard yellows, browns, purples... even the authentic 70's snacks- we wanted everyone walking in to feel like they had literally gone back in time!

I can confidently say everyone involved had blast for the duration of the shoot time. All 16 photographers walked away with stunning images. I know as I did my best to look through as many as I could-!

The event took six months to create, and the four days flew by way too fast.

We have all raised a lot of money for Battersea Cats and Dogs home and also created many wonderful memories- some of which I hope will stay with me until the 2070's- If I'm lucky-!!! ;)

I am over the moon at how well the event went- I have everyone involved to thank for that- the models, assistants, studio, hair stylist and of course, the photographers. I could't have done it without you- so thank you for having faith in my event and booking a slot.

Peace out dudes... :)
