I had a fantastic 4 hour shoot with Dave at my first visit to Map Studios, and the time just flew by! Dave is lots of fun, chatty and witty, professional and considerate. He sent me through some brilliant ideas prior to the shoot so we hit the ground running and got through a wide range of looks and sets.

I loved Dave's energy and enthusiasm for shooting and I think we could have carried on for another 4 hours! I hope to get the opportunity of working with Dave again - thank you for a superb shoot, highly recommended :)

Dave came to the Christmas themed group shoot that myself and Vivian Blue arranged.

It was a pleasure to work with Dave again, and the images he captured of us both form that event were particularly lovely :)

Definitely recommended by me :)

Wow!

What a great shoot I had with Dave!

Such a gentleman, able to have a laugh(which is very important to me).

Never pushed my levels and always respected what I wanted.

Got some great images and had a great time getting them along the way!

Thanks again!

1000% recommend!

I worked with Dave for the first time on my duo day with Vivian Blue at The X Factory. Dave arrived in plenty of time for the start of the shoot and we were both a bit early, which meant we were able to discuss ideas for the two hours he had booked!

We worked through some of his ideas, with me and Vivian interpreting the theme and working together to achieve some great images between the three of us.

Dave was happy for us to have creative input too but gave direction when needed. He bought along clothing/props for us to use during the shoot too... He was well prepared!

I would definitely work with Dave again and recommend him to other models!!

I had another, unexpected shoot with this guy!! I enjoyed 4 hours of experimenting, exploring and embracing each idea Dave presented. We shot a number of different styles and once again I enjoyed playing around with each prop given. Dave is a lovely guy, and even put up with my banter as we went along.

Thank you for making me smile xx

I had my second shoot with Dave, this time we shot at a derilict location that I new of. Dave showed up with some great ideas and props, same as last time we got on well and managed to create some beautiful creative shots by working together and bouncing ideas around. Dave is very passionate about his photography and is a great guy to be around, looking forward to our next shoot! Which we have already booked in.

Best wishes,

I had my first shoot with Dave last week, after great pre shoot comms I was really excited about meeting and working with Dave. He doesn’t live too far from me, and has a beautiful home. We shot fashion around the grounds and local spots. The lighting was perfect for us and we got some amazing shots. I got on with Dave really well, he was easy to talk to and professional throughout. Looking forward to our next shoot this Sunday.

Thanks,

I recently had a wonderful first shoot with Dave! He brought a car bonnet and rear into the studio and set up one almighty fabulous shooting area. He is chatty, enthusiastic and creative....with balls of bouncy, mad energy and charisma. He has a certain comedic, addictive, charm and shares an absolute passion to shoot amazing imagery.

You can’t stop now!

Thank you so much!

I had a fantastic shoot with Dave today! Thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish! Pre-coms were excellent, I knew what to bring and what to expect, and we got on straight away. Friendly, polite, funny, easy to talk to, Dave was kind and respectful at all times. He has such a positive attitude towards photography! This shoot was one of my first experiences working to nude levels with somebody new, and Dave made me feel totally comfortable.

We managed to do so many different, creative things during our shoot – Dave has an excellent ability to put a twist on images to give them something special. So excited to see the results from our shoot. Thank you Dave, highly recommended and hope to work with you again soon!

Had a wonderful home shoot with Dave yesterday. Dave responded to a casting call of mine and booking in a shoot was so easy, quick and all the details were confirmed in a few short messages!

On the day Dave was really friendly and chatty, the whole shoot was full of giggles and creativity! The shoot itself didn't have any specific plans but it flowed perfectly!

Of course Dave hadn't worked in the space before but didn't struggle for ideas! It really was a meeting of two minds!...

Loved the shots we created and I would certainly recommend Dave to other models!...

Thanks again!

I really hope to work with you again in the future!

Yesterday I shot with Dave at his new apartment in Staffordshire. Well first of all what an absolute ideal location for shooting, it's absolutely stunning and the grounds it's set in allow you to tell a story with photography.

Pre comms with Dave were excellent and I felt I knew exactly the sort of range of outfits to bring.

On shoot I found me and Dave got on well and were incredibly productive and I can't wait to see the results from just 2 hours together.

Already got our next shoot booked for this Sunday! Can't wait.

Had the pleasure with shoot with Dave yet again today at Maps, im starting to loose count how many times we have worked together , im sure Dave will get fed up of me soon . Anyway another day another session with Dave but yet again very different . Dave suggested some art nude with rope and pointe shoes , which I was very excited about it was something new combined with my fav genre . Dave was very accommodating and ensured I had rests in-between as it was a head set io wasn't used to shooting . We moved on to some other sets and genres throughout our time and who knew you could cram so much into two hours . Dave always brings new ideas to the table and is very creative . The more we shoot the more myself I am . Hope its not too long until another session Jess x

Well what can I say! Dave was fantastic to work with from start to finish today. It was our first shoot, I felt at ease in his company. Dave was easy to get along with and full of fantastic ideas. I cannot wait to see how our images turn out. I look forward to working with him again soon to create more magic.
