I had the very real pleasure of working with Tigerbelle today, she met me at the Hovercraft terminal at Ryde Isle of Wight and taxied me around the Island,

This wonderful lady took me to some beautiful isolated locations where we shot with utter abandon, she is highly professional in her manner and her art she needed very little direction slipping from one pose to the next fluidly with very little input from me she is a wonderful model with a unique attitude and I thoroughly enjoyed her company and her input into what I believe was for me a very successful shoot, my only problem is to cherry pick the 1000 + images to select my "keepers" which will be I am sure quite numerous.

Thank you Melissa for a day I will remember for a long time to come, I look forward to our next shoot

I cannot recommend this lady highly enough, if you book her you will not be disappointed.

What a star! Nothing gets in the way of a booking and last night it would have been understandable if she had wanted to call of , but no, she came and gave us some challenging poses. Everyone in the group produced work to be proud of, and enjoyed the session. Tigerbelle is exceptional in her attitude, if she thinks a pose is "Ordinary" she will suggest a variant which is certainly more interesting but puts her under more strain. This is not how it usually works for artist''s models when a pose can last for many minutes rather than the photographer's seconds. Highly recommended.

Off the bat I knew this was going to be fun whatever the weather and whatever the results!

I felt that I clicked with Tigerbelle within minutes - you know when someone just has that same sense of humour and same outlook on things - that's Tigerbelle.

She looked after me fantastically I was very open to sharing ideas and she clearly has a lot - but is totally commited to ensuring an imagist (or aspiring one) goes away happy with what they've taken. The parts of the island she took me to are just stunningly beautiful, wild and isolated.

I had a totally awesome day today - Tigerbelle is absolutely and wholehearted to be recommended!

I got to work with this lovely lady on Thursday, she was kind enough to pick me up from the Ryde Pier.

Although the weather was not looking great as we headed off to the shoot location, she had already said that we had a couple of possible locations depending on the weather.

The weather held out for us, and I got some amazing shots at a great location all thanks to Tigerbelle braving the elements and knowing her way around the Island.

I left wet (spray from the sea) and muddy, but having had a great time and having got some great shots.

I am looking forward to working with Tigerbelle again.

I highly recommend working with Tigerbelle if you ever get a chance

Great person, great model, almost sure to do some great work when she's involved. What more cane be said- if you haven't worked with her you've missed a treat.

last minute cancellation and Tigerbelle stepped in to save the day, most enjoyable session, challenging as usual but such a great person and model. See below for full recommendation.

Wow! This lass is an amazing artist model, rock steady even in standing poses and when she gets a free hand comes up with poses that challenge even the most experienced. Upside down seems to be her natural state. If you are looking for a life model she is the one, just be ready to cope with extraordinary poses. We look forward to the next few sessions .

Not only a charming lady but an excellent model. Melissa has extremely varied and skilled posing ability.

She offered a wide variety of poses and the shoot passed all too quickly. A shaft of unexpected sunlight gave us the opportunity to take a few shots in the garden.

Altogether a most rewarding and pleasing shoot, and the results are excellent.

I had the pleasure to work with Tigerbelle on her recent tour to East Anglia :)

Pre comms were excellent, Tigerbelle turned on time and the weather behaved its self!

Tigerbelle is a dream to work with, an excellent art nude model who is happy in her skin and has plenty of poses to keep any photographer happy.

Tigerbelle is fun to work with and comes highly recommended!.

I look forward to her next trip to East Angelia

I'm so glad the opportunity came up to work with Tigerbelle on her East Anglian trip. Her communication was superb and when we eventually met she was incredibly easy to get along with.

The shoot was my first for a little while so I was a little bit rusty but she took it all in her stride and was a wonderfully calm, professional oasis in my storm of lighting indecision. Tigerbelle took my initial ideas and flew with them. She is incredibly athletic and able to get into poses that I could not even have conceived of, let alone suggested.

It was great fun working with Tigerbelle, and creatively, extremely productive, and so I would highly recommend working with her.

I had the absolute please of shooting with Tigerbelle, and also the pleasure of her company while she stayed with me on her recent tour of East Anglia. She is great to work with, she has a lot of experience which she was happy to share on the location shoots we did. I got to try a new style of shooting on location which I have always wanted to try and I got some amazing results which I am really happy with. She has a great sense of humour which always goes down well with me, and it was like working with a friend. Any time you are in the area give me a call, and you are welcome to stay anytime. You never know next summer I might even get down to the Isle of White for a challenge. Until next time, but for any photographers if you get a change to work with Tigerbelle do so :)

Had another fantastic with Tigerbelle on the Isle of Wight

She picked myself and another photographer up from the ferry and then took us to 2 great locations

Tigerbelle knows the Island very well and knows some great locations to fit whichever type of image you are looking for, she requires no direction however she will listen to direction if you require a specific pose

she is always a delight to work with and is very very highly recomended

looking forward to our next shoot!!!!!

Had a second shoot with Tigerbelle with a photographer friend of mine, she picked up up from the Ferry at the agreed time and took us straight to the first of 2 fabulous locations. We did the shoot and moved on to the second location to complete the shoot, it all went very smoothly.

Tigerbelle, without doubt is the most professional model I have had the pleasure to have worked with. Added to this is a great sense of humour, an unbelievable creativity in her poses, and the way she puts her heart into every pose

Tigerbelle does not need any direction, however, when given responds as requested and moves back into her own style seamlessly, very comfortable in her own skin and makes it easy to get some amazing shots.

Would I recommend her? Yes without a doubt, whether you are a complete novice or seasoned shooter.

Tigerbelle is my first choice of model, Do not miss the chance to work with this delightful lady,or you will regret it.

My second shoot with the awesome Tigerbelle....and it just gets better and better !

From my own point of view, it has to be a full day with Mel ; not just because her rates are so reasonable, but because she is such a lovely lady to have as company and she is the most fabulous model . Full of enthusiasm, inspiration and creativity; always professional and on time and always open to exploring and developing ideas. Our work together is always a collaboration and i love it that way . The pleasure for me is knowing that this is a lady and friend with whom i can work for many years to come ;

Highly recommended . T x

Tigerbelle was excellent throughout the whole process, from communications, punctuality, friendliness, and professionalism in all aspects of the process. As a model she was great at taking directions and being able to come up with ideas and positions. She was also very funny and fun to work with. I would definitely work with her again if she could bear to work with me again lol. What a lovely, beautiful woman.

It is always a pleasure working with Tigerbelle, not only is she always reliable and professional from first contact to end of the shoot but Tigerbelle is adventurous and creative too imersing herself into the shoot adding her special interpretation. Always up for a challenge and beyond. What is more she is immense fun and a real pleasure to work with. If you haven't yet worked with Tigerbelle you really should!

I had a great location shoot with Tigerbelle today. Good pre shoot communication and she managed to arrive on time dispite transport problems. She is very pleasant to work with and we had a great time and got some great pictures while wading through the wet grass of the Hampsire countryside. If you want someone to hang naked from a tree or even if you don't I can recomment Tigerbelle.

Third session of life drawing with the amazing Tigerbelle and once again nothing but praise for this very adaptable model. She is a challenge and a pleasure to draw, a combination which resulted in some fine work by the group. She really is a key part of the creative process. I look forward to our next sessions with this wickedly funny lady.

Had a wonderful shoot with Tigerbelle today. I had and idea of what I wanted to achieve, and while shooting these ideas we also experiment with ideas around the poses and other spontaneous idea. After I had shot what I had planned , Tigerbelle came up with a few suggestions to round off the shoot.

Tigerbelle was a pleasure to work with, putting me at my ease right from the start.

I look forward to working with her again, probably on location next time.

Highly recommended

I worked with Tigerbelle again after a lean period in my photography. As before she bent over backwards (quite literally) to ensure that we had a productive shoot. She has great local knowledge and great ideas. Tigerbelle is an absolute delight to work with and a beautiful person inside and out. Can't wait for our next shoot!!
