Woohooo! We finally got around to shooting today which was awesome and I am so glad we did.

I'd met Paddy a few times prior to our shoot at socials so we already knew how fun working together would be!

Paddy is super easy to work with, he's funny, kind and very chatty (which is awesome!) The shots I saw were absolutely breath taking I'm so pleased with them and Paddy seemed to be pleased too which is great. I really do hope to work with him again in the new year :)

I took Paddy to my family villa in Spain for a few days for some one to one shooting. We had a fantastic time! I get on so well with Paddy that it felt like I was on holiday with a close friend and we enjoyed ourselves so much! Paddy was full of ideas as usual and we put them all to good use! He also listened to my ideas and we worked on those together too. I had an amazing time with him and wouldn't think twice if he asked to come along again sometime. Highly recommended and still one of my favourite photographers :D xx

Had a really wonderful time shooting with Paddy a few weeks ago! His pre shoot communications were excellent and on the day he was highly organised and arrived/met me bang on time!

He is an exceptionally friendly, fun, professional and likeable person. It was so so easy working with him, he made me feel totally at ease and as well as producing some wonderful images actually made the shoot a highly enjoyable and lovely experience!

He works very efficiently and is keen to experiment and try as many angles and ideas as possible, in so doing he achieves some really beautiful results! Paddy is full of his own ideas and inspiration but also gladly listens to a models input and makes for a truly collaborative experience!

All in all it was a great day; worked with a friendly professional person and got great results! Highly recommended!

I worked with Paddy for one week in Spain and it was a true pleasure. He is really fun and easy to work with. Although he is very young he is already an amazing photographer who knows how to capture the best features of the model. I would highly recommend him to any model :)

Had the pleasure of working with Paddy at the cottage studio. He is lovely person and a talented photographer with a very creative mind. Pre-shoot comms was excellent, he knew exactly what he wanted to achieve from the shoot, he was very easy to get on with and very professional. Will be happy to work with him again and definitely recommend him to all!

I was honoured to be the 1st male Paddy had photographed.

He was professional, swift, but not rushed, and great company. He was always aware of the lighting and was chipped in with ideas.

Paddy's images are pure art.

I had an awesome time working with Patrick on location in Wales.

He's lovely to work with, professional but also fun and relaxed. He had some awesome ideas and used the locations available really well.

I would highly recommend working with Patrick he's awesome and creative and takes amazing images!

Finally got to work to Paddy after a long while of talking about planning a shoot and unfortunately our previous arranged shoot had to be cancelled. However it was an absolute pleasure to work with him. Friendly, creative, fun, professional are just a few words to describe him. A very talented photographer and I would highly recommend him to anyone. You will have a very enjoyable shoot and produce some wonderful images. I can't wait to work with you again next Thursday :)

Thank you Paddy, Love Tillie x

Had an absolutely wonderful shoot with Patrick last week, he is a lovely guy to work with, comes brimming with great ideas and executes them brilliantly.

We worked on several pre-planned ideas and achieved a lot in a short space of time, mainly because Patrick knows when he's got the image he is looking for.

I would absolutely love to work with Patrick again, he is respectful and courteous and tones of fun!!

I would gladly recommend him in a heart beat to anyone on here!

Thank you Patrick, hope to see you again soon!

I had another shoot with Paddy at Pauls Studio's location shoot in Wales. I just absolutely LOVE working with this guy! He is sooooo much fun! I can really push my limits with Paddy and i know i can trust him 100%! He makes me laugh throughout the shoot, he always shows me images as we go on so i know how far i can push myself. He is a fantastic person, very caring and very fun to be around. I would recoomend him to anyone and everyone. Infact, you would be stupid not to work with him!! lol. Thanks Paddy, see you soon lovely xxxxx

Oh Patrick, why do you have to live so damn far away! I was lucky enough to shoot with Patrick for the second time recently at an event shoot in Wales organised by Paul's Studio, and again had a most brilliant time! Patrick is creative and talented - still has no idea of just how talented in my humble opinion. Thanks so much Patrick - you are a pleasure to work with, and a downright lovely chap too xx

Shot with Paddy cat a couple of weeks ago, he is ace and a lovely guy to get on with! A really good photographer and I hope I get to work with him again soon :) Thank you x

Had my second shoot with Patrick yesterday and had admittedly forgotten how much fun he is to work with! We covered a range of styles and created some lovely pics, but he had me rolling around with laughter more than once :P.

Patrick is very reliable and punctual, well equipped and gave me a good idea of what he wanted before he arrived, but is open minded enough to discuss ideas and incorporate my suggestions.

Hope to see you again, lots of love, Fawna xxx

I had a fantastic shoot with Patrick on the 21st of October, he was on time and well equipped, and to top it all off, he is very fun to work with, easy-going and has a brilliant sense of humour.

Never-the-less, Patrick is very enthusiastic about his photography, and always does his best to experiment with new things and knows a lot about model photography despite him claiming to be a spring chicken in it all :P.

I hope to see him soon, and will definitely look forward to working with him in the future.

Once again i had a fantastic day with Paddy! The morning consisted of the two of us creating a portfolio for a new up and coming model. Paddy was obviously the photographer and i put the model into the desired poses. We had a great laugh and the images we created from working together as a team are outstanding!!

The afternoon, we decided to take advantage of the snow and drive to two locations for snow shoots..up to art nude. Paddy was considerate of the extremelly cold weather so we shot each set for a max of 10-15 mins before we went into the warm for a change of clothes. We had a fantastic shoot and the images are fabulous!!

Paddy and i shoot together at least once a month, we havent yet broken that rule! :) Paddy and i have become quite good friends and have a great working relationship. I know i can push my limits with Paddy and 100% trust his opinions and skills. If something doesnt work he will tell me and visa versa. With Paddy i feel i always feel comfortable enough that i can experiment new poses and styles and see what works and what doesnt.

I love working with Paddy and i think that any model who gets the chance to work with him is also very lucky and should take up the opportunity!!

See you soon xxx

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Patrick for the first time last month during a group shoot near Reading. Patrick is an extremely good photographer and strangely does not seem to realise this at all! On top of this, he has a lovely attitude and is great fun to shoot with. I really hope to get the opportunity to work with Patrick again :)

I had a double shoot yesterday with Paddy and model Sasha B. The shoot was on location and was pretty cold but we braved it out and had a great shoot! We laughed throughout and had so much fun! Working with Paddy for me is now like shooting with a friend as we have worked together so many times. His work is amazing, his personality is equally as amazing and the results are fantastic! I love working with him and am really looking forward to seeing him at Purley Hall next month. I would recommend Paddy to anyone and can't wait to see our images from yesterday's shoot. Thanks again Paddy :) xx

I had a great shoot with Patrick at Paul's Studio a few months back (the exact date escapes me now...!). Patrick is full of ideas, enthusiastic, and great at direction. He composes shots brilliantly, and knows exactly what he is looking for, which is refreshing. I think Patrick has a great eye for art nude, and I look forward to seeing him developing his skills in this area of photography! Highly recommended! x
