I had a great shoot with Rakesh at the weekend at Victoria House Studio and look forward to seeing the images! Arriving early allowing prep time for hair and make up, Rakesh was helpful and accommodating at all times (especially with heating in the studio as I feel the cold easily!).

We had good pre-comms before the shoot and referred back to mood board images on set for inspiration.

Rakesh definitely has a lot of creative ideas and I recommend him for many more models to work with.

Had a great shoot with Rakesh, he was very friendly and easy to work with. He had a clear idea of what images he wanted from the shoot and responded well to feedback.

He arrived at the studio nice and early to prep. Would definitely recommend.

Wow what an absolutely amazing photographer and all round fantastic person to work with. Very professional and ye down to earth.

We shot on Location within a beautiful oriental Japanese garden which gave us some amazing picturesque areas to work with all with their own unique features of which we utilized well.

We were working in minus degree temperatures with a sharp chilly wind whipping around us and we were even graced with spots of icey rain and I was in attire that was less than suitable for the weather 😉 He was very accommodating and allowed for suitable breaks during shooting for me to throw on my dressing gown to warm back up a bit before continuing. He even insisted on me using his lovely warm fluffy gloves as i was starting to get very numbed hands.

He snapped some incredible image sets in each area and I am very pleased with the edits received back.

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute working with this photographer as mentioned very professional and I felt very comfortable in his presence, very thorough, great attitude, superb communication pre, during and post shoot, genuine, superb personality and just an overall amazing person to work with.

I hope we get to shoot again as i really enjoyed working with him.

I highly recommend this amazing photographer.

First shoot with Rakesh today, lovely from start to finish

Pre-shoot comm's were perfect, very clear and he also text me to let me know exactly when he'd be arriving etc.

The shoot flew by! Rakesh arrived enthusiastically and tany to go straight away. We sailed through several locations and I feel we got the most out of each one. He was willing to allow me to pose freely but also able to direct and help me get the most out of each pose we did. He was very respectful, fun and chatty.

Highly recommended and I hope to work with him again in the future.

Thanks again! X

Had a lovely shoot with Rakesh.

Rakes is a great photographer, very easy to work with and has some lovely ideas. I really enjoyed our shoot and so pleased with the pictures we got.

Was great company throughout the shoot, whilst being friendly and professional. He obviously cares about model's safety and even walked me to and from the train station.

Would certainly recommend.
