Finally got to shoot with this wonderful man,it was a very last minute shoot so no concept was had,we just decided to wing it,and you know what I think we bloody pulled it off :),

We shot on roads, rocks in mud (rip my white shoes) and I even had a fight with barbed wire,

What a fantastic day I had with an absolutely beautiful man,

Mr V is such a talented man and his work just blows me away,

i cannot tell you enough,how much this man means to me,he has been a friend a confident and a all round diamond geezer,

Mr V you know how much I love you and your work lets get sorting our next shoot

If yesterday was anything to go by we together will blow everyone away

I recommend anyone to work with this man,

Thank you so much until the next time sir

So much fun!

Ceri and I had this shoot in the diary for about 4 months, and it finally came to fruition.

We went out on location with Angel Illustrations and my daughter in tow...

He was polite and incredibly considerate of having my daughter with me (following childcare falling through!).

I recently went through a bit of a confidence crisis, and Ceri was incredibly gentle and really helped bring out a side that I didn't know existed (mainly because I rarely do fashion shoots and this entire shoot I was fully clothed!)

A wonderful guy, 1000% recommended!

Can't wait til the next one!

Ceri and I have shot time and time again, and each time I know that we are going to create magic! We click as soon as we start shooting and know what each other is looking for out of the shoot and we achieve this and more!

Can't wait for our next shoot!

One lovely day I get a message from Ceri that he wants to shoot me in the cemetery. Having a passionate love for all things dark, I accepted the offer so that's how our shoot happened.

To say that it was the best time I've had since I started modelling would be the right way to put it. Ceri is amazing! He uses different cameras, is eager to change locations and always listens to ideas as well(even though he tends to protest first :P). He gave me direction when I needed it and we did so many things that day that I don't even remember how I ended up sitting on the steps with two beautiful dogs. Ceri has a great sense of humour and communication skills so I felt at ease with him. I would gladly work with him again.

In short:

Ceri is absolutely fabulous! Shoot with him, now!

Had a shoot with the fantastic Mr vale on Friday and I must say enjoyed every minute of it . Not only did he inspire me he wowed me with his excellent photography and how determined he was to get the right image . I am really looking forward to the edited images and putting some on my port . Even though it was a very cold day we both braved the weather to great the right image

Thank you ceri for a superb location and indoor shoot :)

I had a shoot last Sunday with Ceri and he was great to work with.

He has a great eye for his images and made sure I was comfortable, considering it was a little cold!

Hope to work with him again and highly recommend him!

Thanks again Ceri :)

I managed to talk Ceri into this shoot at the December Gloucester social and as it turned out it we had an awesome day! Ceri & I met in Newport and then Ceri drove us both to a fantastic derelict location in the hills, we just had a great time, and a bit of a jam session :) Ceri is very relaxed to work with and gives great easy direction when needed. His use of natural light is very effective, and we used the buildings to best advantage. We covered a range of different looks and used the spaces bouncing off each other throughout the day.

Ceri is great to work with, funny easy going and very considerate. Can't wait to shoot with him again.

Thanks for an awesome day!

Highly recommended by me :)

Had a lovely shoot with Mr Vale back at the end of January.

It had been a while since we'd seen each other and worked together, so it really felt good to blow off the cobwebs and try to create some awesomeness :-)

We went to some fabulous locations in Merthyr Mawr, along with Angel Illustrations.

He was encouraging as always, and forever looking for new little places to shoot in that we had missed. It was just a shame that there were so many people to disturb us!

I loved the results that I have seen so far (still waiting on medium format film development), and highly recommend this fantastic, funny, brilliant man.

I hope we get to work together again soon!

I worked with Ceri during my Gloucester tour. It was absolutely pouring when I arrived, but Ceri had gained permission for us to shoot in Cardiff castle, which is absolutely one of the most beautiful locations I've ever worked in. Pre-comms were perfect so I knew exactly what to bring and didn't have to carry an enormous suitcase, which is always a plus! On the day, Ceri was the perfect photographer: funny, gentlemanly, open to my suggestions (even the weird ones!) and of course his photography is outstanding. He definitely ranks highly in my list of favourite photographers ever and I'll be back to work with him again for sure. I think it goes without saying that Ceri comes very highly recommended by me.

Think this was my fourth shoot with Ceri. He is such a lovely guy that loves very second of a photo shoot. We wanted to head out early for our shoot so Ceri put me up in a hotel for a night and even bought me some lovely pub grub :)

Ceri took me to this absolutely beautiful old building it was just such a shame that most of the windows has been blocked off so not much natural light could get in but we battled on to get some amazing photos :) Ceri came fully prepared to the shoot as always and looked after me all day with drinks and food. I am super pleased with what I have seen so far and I can not wait to get back my photos from the shoot.

Ceri even took us to a beautiful beach and even though there were people and kids about we managed to escape the crowds and get some awesome shots :)

I had the pleasure of doing a joint shoot with Ceri as my teacher shooting Renay & Carly at Studio 99. I am a amateur model who Ceri kindly did my first shoot for 9 months ago upon his advice I have continued to work towards improving my modelling and now moving on to photography to spend time behind as well as in front of them camera. Although not shooting with Ceri as a model again, I learnt so much from him and hope to do a few more joint shoots this year as a shadow photographer.

Angel Illustrations

Ceri jumped in to help me on a shoot when I knackered my back.

He is a genius on a camera, brilliant to work with and is happy to bounce ideas back and forth with no complaint.

Cannot recommend enough.

Worked with Ceri for the first time last weekend and had an awesome day! He is fun and easy to work with and has produced some beautiful images from our shoot! Highly recommend him and look forward to working with him again myself :)

Freya

Ceri is so much fun to model for :) He is full of energy and you can tell that he absoubtly loves everything to do with photography and creating stunning photos :) I had a joint shoot with Ceri and Angel Illustrations (Karl) and we shot all day in an amazing old abandoned church. Ceri had some ideas of his own and of course I listened and adapted the ideas to make them unique :) If you have the chance to work with Ceri do it! Not only is he an awesome photographer but he is also a great laugh and so much fun to model for :) Super dooper recommended by me :)

First location shoot and first time I had done a implied nudity shoot but Ceri made me feel completely comfortable and was a great guy to work with.

Can't wait to do another shoot with Ceri again.

So I had the pleasure to work with Ceri again but on a home shoot this time, hes lot of fun to work with. He has a fab sense of humor and we had a great laugh whilst pulling off some great shots. looking forward to working with him again :). Highly recommended xx

A truly magical day. Thank you.

This man is a genius with a camera.

When you look in a mirror you never quite see yourself as others do.

Ceri records the real 'you' with a uniqueness and clarity that is almost unsettling.

I have been honoured indeed to be captured in one of his images..... images that take your breath away.
