I had my first shoot with Tigerbelle on Saturday. We had planned our shoot for August but the weather put paid to that as Melissa could not use the IOW ferry due to very bad conditions.

We rearranged a new date and even then it was in some doubt, again due to the weather. However Tigerbelle eventually got to me after several delays and we had our shoot.

I had originally planned an outdoor location but rain and strong winds put an end to that. So we resorted to plan B, classic art nude, and some clothed shots as well in my home studio.

I found Tigerbelle very easy to get along with and because we chatted a lot and had breaks we relaxed with each other and that has produced some beautiful quality images.

Tigerbelle's experience is second to none and I hope to visit the IOW next year and shoot with her again.

Very highly recommended.

Another wonderful session drawing this magnificent model, no praise too high, like the classic muse she inspires a higher quality of work. Tigerbelle we salute you.

I am still lost for words. Tigerbelle was everything and more. Our shoot was booked for the Old Bakery Photography Studios, in Poole, Dorset. Tigerbelle had already done a full four day tour, and she still had more than enough left to help me produce some incredible images. It was my first time using a studio, and I was like a fish out of water...but with the help of Mike (from the studio) and Tigerbelle, the experience could not have gone any better! This was my third shoot with Tigerbelle, and I think it's safe to say, it won't be my last. She is amazing, and I am always honored to be allowed to take her photo. Thank you Tigerbelle x

Another great studio day with Tigerbelle

The day flew by as I watched her work with several different photographers but not once looking tired or not giving 100% with each photographer.

I know she loves shooting in the studio because of its quirky nature and hopefully she will be a constant visitor over the studio life.

I also got to work with her myself on this occasion and so pleased I did.

If you want a great art nude model (and I have to say a great boudoir and lingerie model) then book her soon as she is always popular.

I had my fourth shoot with Tigerbelle. This time at Art Asylum Reloaded in Weymouth. She turned up on, time and her pre-shoot communications were great. We shot some Art Nude Fashion, Lingerie, and Boudoirs.

Tigerbelle brought with her all the clothing and props I asked her to bring for this shoot. She can pose without direction and is open to the ideas of the photographer.

It was a fun and productive shoot I would recommend her to any photographer.

I had my third shoot with Tigerbelle at a studio day at Art Asylum Reloaded and as always she was superb.

We worked through a number of differing sets all of which were posed excellently with great skill. She is great to work with, a really nice person and easy to get on with.

As always a top class model and very highly recommended. Shoots with her are always very enjoyable and fly by.

I had my 2nd shoot with the incredible Tigerbelle at the Art Asylum Reloaded Studio. I absolutely love working with Tigerbelle; she is so easy to get along with whilst being highly professional and very hard working. We had an outstandingly productive hour and created some amazing images. Tigerbelle is so good at impossible poses!!! A joy to work with and definately highly recommended

I had a duo shoot with Tigebelle and M e l a n y yesterday - this was my first duo with Tigerbelle, having had many wonderful solo shoots with her in the past.

Tigerbelle makes any shoot an absolute pleasure- he’s has a lovely personality, is very easy to get along with and is a true professional. It is clear that her aim is for the photographer to come away with a great set of photos - and yes I did.

I will never grow tired of shooting with Tigerbelle on her own or as part of a duo - she is superb at both. Yesterday in the duo set, she was always looking for the great poses together, as well as being very happy to be directed.

She adapts to any style of shoot, location and studio and is great to work with - I very much recommend working with her.

Until the next time Tigerbelle

My 2nd shoot with Tigerbelle and just like my 1st one it was great. She is a fantastic model and very easy to work with. We only had a very short shoot but managed to get some great images. Next time she visits Dorset will definatly book her for longer

Tigerbelle was the very first model who caught my eye when I joined PP, and I thought wow she’s amazing! Today I had the pleasure and privilege to model alongside her and I enjoyed every minute of it.

Not only is she an awesome, clever and funny woman, she is a very skilled and talented model and I adore the shapes that she makes. We didn’t discuss anything, it just seemed to come naturally. From what I saw on the back of the camera, we created some really stunning art nude duo work together.

I really hope to get the opportunity of working with her again - oh yes tomorrow morning in fact ;) - and very highly recommend her as there are few who do art nude modelling as well as she does, with such feeling and conviction.

Many thanks for a super shoot! Xx

Tigerbelle arrived in weymouth for her studio day at my studio and it was too good an opportunity to miss for a chance to shoot her.

I had watched her on her last studio day and knew there was hidden depths to her and a side of her that I wanted to bring out in my own style of boudoir.

She certainly didn't disappoint and was so easy and fun to work with that I don't know why we haven't worked together before.

I wanted to show her how good she looked doing boudoir and hopefully I succeeded as I loved the shoot and got some great images.

She is such a nice model to work with and everyone should work with her if they get the chance.

Thanks again for a great shoot.

How lucky we are on the Island to have Tigerbelle as a local, prepared to sit for the Life Drawing group on a regular basis. She is an amazing model able to come up with inspiring poses which she holds so well. Last evening new members of the group had the pleasure of meeting and drawing this most professionsl of models and were duly impressed. Next session eagerly awaited!

It was an absolute joy shooting with Tigerbelle for the first time after being a long time admirer. I knew we'd have a good shoot, but it was one of those brilliant moments where it turns out to be even better than expected. Tigerbelle is a beautifully graceful and elegant model with a wonderful range of poses. She's also fabulous company and really easy to get along with, which made the shoot so easy and I’m thrilled with the images we created together. I really hope we can shoot again before too long and getting out on location somewhere suitably epic. A class act, thoroughly recommended. Thank you :)

Can it really be two years since I last had the opportunity to work with the always excellent Tigerbelle. Even so, it seemed as if we picked up exactly where we left things last time. For our third shoot we visited one of my favourite locations, the Purton Hulks. Blessed with a delightfully warm, sunny day our shoot was somewhat hampered with the frequent interruptions of walkers and a bike rider who seemed to come out of nowhere. Nevertheless, when you are working with a model this good a few minutes can give you so many excellent images.

From start to finish we had a relaxed shoot which gave us time to explore so many opportunities at the location and it was a privilege to be part of the creative process of such a talented model. I am certain we could have spent twice as long there and still have found new ideas. The only thing stopping us was the fading light.

Tigerbelle is such an inspiring and creative model. I am so pleased we had a chance to work together again and can only hope we find another opportunity soon.

I was delighted to be able to have the opportunity to have another shoot with Tigerbelle. We had planned to work in the Quantock Hills with woodland scenes and then work on the north Somerset coast with amazing rock scenery. The pre shoot communications were excellent and when I meet Tigerbelle she was already to shoot. We were shooting environmental nudes in which Tigerbell was able to bring amazing poses, both dynamic and stretched. Tigerbelle is highly talented at working with the environment giving pictures the wow-factor and she is also able to take directions to get just the right position. I love working with Tigerbelle, she is easy to get on with and the day went so quickly and I am looking forward to future shoots. I can recommend Tigerbelle most highly.

Thank you

All the previous references are a true accolade of Tigerbelle as a model and it becomes difficult to add to it.

I have worked with her on several occasions, almost an annual event and it is never a disappointment. From the planning through to the finish.

Tigerbelle puts so much energy and enthusiasm into every shoot, with creativity and professionalism, it is always a joy to work with her.

When Tigerbelle puts up a casting in your area I would urge you to make the time to work with her.

Tigerbelle is a person of amazing and rare talents and compassion. We had our third session a week ago, and again I am lost for words about how much expression and interpretation she can bring to any role I have asked her to create. Her willingness to explore ideas while walking to wee biting beastie places further back than the back of beyond, is a joy to experience. The treks are always made easier by her ease of conservation, sense of humour (i.e. willing to humour me!). Time simply became meaningless, immersed in the story line and watching the character come alive before my eyes. She even got to use her music degree in places. For once the weather was slightly warm enough for hypothermia not to set in. I always look forward to the next Tigerbelle experience. I cannot recomend her highly enough.

It was great to get the chance to work again with tigerbelle. We've shot together several times now, and she has stayed with us on her Scottish tours. She has become properly a friend of our family.

Excellent comms and preparation before the shoot, great company, and we've consistently got good images. We've been able to develop themes over several visits and each time I've been able to find fresh ideas for my long term 'domestic nudes' project.

Absolutely recommended!
