My very first shoot on purpleport was with this great photographer! He came to me for two location shoots, his communication was fantastic and I am SO EXCITED to see finished photos. He is talented and such an enthusiastic photographer, I really could not have asked for a better start to my modelling journey! So thank you, I thoroughly enjoyed every second of our shoots together!

Mike and I had our first shoot, as he drove all the way up to my oxford location to work with Elle Beth and myself! Mike's preshoot comms were excellent, and the shoot was such fun! Mike was nothing but polite and considerate of us both, the house and our hostess ("Mother Theresa"! ;D ) and also a great laugh! Back of cams looked epic too, it was a really excellent shoot all round, couldn't ask for more. Totally recommended by me and hope we can shoot again! :)

I just had an AWESOME first shoot with Mike :-)

I could tell from our emails that we would get on great, Mike is very polite, eloquent and easy-going, but I was pleasantly surprised when Mike arrived at my home to find that we have a very similar sense of humour so the 4 hour shoot flew past and felt like a 1 or 2 hour shoot!

Mike is respectful, extremely funny, and fun to work with, he made me feel absolutely comfortable within seconds and I just hope that he managed to get at least a couple of shots from the shoot where I wasn’t laughing because it genuinely was such an awesome day!

I would absolutely recommend Mike to anyone - talented, professional, kind, creative and a gem to work with :-)

Thanks Mike for such a lovely time :-) xxx

I had my first shoot with Mike he picked me up from the station and off we went to Kent photo studio. When we got to the studio a few things were missing but we maked do with what we had and we still got brilliant shots. Mike puts a lot of effort in to his photographer he had gel lights and really cool props. I'm really excited to see when the pictures are finished. I really enjoyed my shoot and there will definitely be more. 110% recommend

I had my first session with Mike earlier this week, what a pleasure it was.

Mike is a passionate, professional perfectionist.

Pre-communications were exemplary and thorough which meant we were both ready to go as soon as he arrived at the location.

One thing that made the shoot particularly enjoyable was Mike’s great sense of humour and easy going attitude.

We went for some creative additions such as smoke grenades and large flowing fabrics, all of which were great fun to experiment with.

Mike worked relentlessly to battle with the weather conditions on location, which were challenging at times- but I know he nailed it every time.

I am looking forward to working with Mike again in the near future. I feel not only have I met/worked with a great photographer- but have been lucky enough to make a friend too.

Highly recommend.

Was so nice to work with Mike again today after about a year and a half or so!

As always he’s such a pleasure to work with and a great laugh, the time just flew by!! We worked on some dark and moody shots and bodyscapes after he saw one of my castings asking to do more of that kind of thing and from what I was seeing on the back of the camera I was LOVING some of the results we were getting and he even allowed me to give a little of my own input as well.

Can’f wait to see the final results and I look forward to the next time!

Thanks again :D x

Urban Fire also taught me a few things too and was creative with ideas for the shoot. He made you feel very comfortable and was a true gentalmen he knows his stuff as he has been doing it for a long time :) had a lot of fun and would definitely work with him again

Had my first duo shooting experience with Urban Fire over the weekend which was most excellent. I found it really easy to shoot a long side him and we each took turns taking our shots with the model. He was wonderful helping me to learn some new tricks and assisted with props. We each had our own ideas. So he sad and had a vape patiently while I took my shots and I assisted in model direction when required. I found the experience to be hugely beneficial and couldn't have picked a better chap to shoot along side :-)

Having recently worked with Mike on a group shoot, we promptly organised another shoot together, and I'm so glad we did. Mike is such an incredible photographer to work with; he had me laughing throughout the whole day and I had a truly great time working with him.

Mike is very creative in his approach, and he took full advantage of the many interesting opportunities in the natural environment which surrounded us, coupled with some spontaneity too. He is professional, funny and has a great talent. Without any doubt, I would love to work with Mike again, and can't recommend him highly enough to others. Thank you for such a lovely day :)

I had the pleasure of working with Mike again at the weekend during a group shoot on location organised by MKPhotography. I thoroughly enjoy working with Mike and would highly recommend this talented photographer to any models looking to gain beautiful images for their portfolio. Mike is easy going, friendly, fun to chat with, creative and completely professional. Mike also has experience in smoke grenades which we used for the last section of the shoot and he put so much energy and enthusiasm into it which just goes to show how much of a hard working and passionate photographer he really is. Really looking forward to seeing some images from the day :) Thanks again!

Having photographed with Mike on several occasions now, you know that the help in gaining pictures with such style make the shoot go with ease.

On this outdoor location, with models Kelly & Michelle, he was the brains behind the smoke captures, to finish of this 4 hour assignment.

Everyone on this group shoot, came away excited in that they all (models as well) gained some awesome pictures.

The expertise he he passed on to us all, in how such a capture works was invaluable.

Already booked our next shoot - 100% recommended

I had a great time working with Mike as part of a location group shoot at Toad Rock. From start to finish, Mike was professional, full of ideas, and had a great sense of humour - I had a smile on my face the whole time.

Without doubt, I would be happy to work with Mike again, and highly recommend him to others. :)

I have now lost count of how many times I have shot with this very talented bugger!!!

It’s safe to say he is one of my favourite people to shoot with. He always brings his A game, comes with tons of creative enthusiasm and he’s up for just about any challenge you can throw at him, and I’ve thrown him a few from standing in a lake after dark, pink wigs to prancing through the woods with a scythe on Halloween...

Can’t sing his praise high enough, he’s awesome, shoot with him now, you won’t regret it!!!

Cheers Mike for all the AMAZING photos and not shying away from my madness 😎🔥

I had a wonderful shoot with Mike today!

He was super creative and had some amazing ideas for the shoot and gave wonderful direction.

He managed to show me how to use smoke grenades to create a completely new look to each image.

He was also super understanding and friendly.

I can't wait to see the images and I hope to work with him again at some point in the future!

Thank you! 🌸

He understands the lighting techniques very well and works hard to get the images we both wanted to achieve.

I recently had my first shoot with Mike, and I can honestly say I hope there are many more to come in the future. He is such a down to earth, funny, creatively engaging and enthusiastic guy that it was such a wonderful experience. We shot for 4 hours in a beautiful mansion house, of which Mike embraced and shot beautifully. I can’t wait to see the results!

Thank you Mike x
