Had an incredible first shoot with Vulgar Superstitions, at a group shoot at Murder Mile :-) I had wanted to work with her for ages so was delighted when the opportunity came up to shoot! :-) I absolutely love Vulgar Superstitions approach to modelling, creating really interesting narrative and story in each shot, backed up by incredible styling, a dazzling array of accessories and props and fantastically expressive, chameleonic posing! :-) On top of her modelling skills, Vulgar Superstation is a fabulous person and absolutely awesome to work with! :-) Totally recommended and can't wait to work with her again! :-)

What an absolute privilege and pleasure it was to work with Rebecca. We arranged everything on short notice. Pre-shoot communications were excellent. She was on time and ready to jump into the cold stream at 7 am. She is organised, talented, beautiful, hard-working and has a lovely personality.

Throughout the shoot, she provided creativity, skills & sensitivity to help me achieve the images we wanted. I can't wait to edit my images!

I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Rebecca to anyone and would certainly work with her again.

I was pleased to be approached by Rebecca to do a shoot together, combining my collection of props with her extensive wardrobe. She took the trouble to familiarise herself with various sets I've used on my port and brought a very well-chosen array of costumes which complemented and enhanced the items we had to work with.

Her preparation and presentation is to a very high standard and she has a creative flair and an eye for detail, knowing how to combine colours and textures to best effect. She has a constructive and collaborative approach to shooting, always willing to offer helpful ideas and suggestions and responding well to the photographer's input. She likes to experiment, seeking to go beyond the ordinary or expected, and has a great range of expression.

She is a creative and innovative model, rewarding to work with and easy to get along with. I'd be happy to shoot with her again and she is highly recommended.

I had my first shoot with Rebecca on Saturday and I am very much hoping it will be the first of many more in the future.

On the weekend running up to the shoot, both of us had a lot going on in our personal lives, so comms were a little less detailed from me than they usually are. But that didn't matter at all with Rebecca as she has an incredibly creative mind, and she came up with two very different looks that fit perfectly with that style of shoot I had proposed.

On the shoot day Rebecca had a significant vehicle malfunction, and I gave her the option of postponing, but she was adamant that the shoot would go ahead and she arranged for her sister to drive her over to my place. She arrived with bags almost bursting with outfit items and props, and even though we were starting later than planned we had a chilled chat, to discuss ideas, photography and life in general, whilst Rebecca applied her makeup. Rebecca is just so easy to talk with - she has a great (and occasionally savage) sense of humour, and so many ideas.

Once we got down to actually shooting, Rebecca was patient whilst I got the lighting how I wanted it, happy to make suggestions and also happy to take direction. her posing is excellent, and she is not afraid to add emotion by trying different facial expressions. I find that most of the time on my shoots I seem to take the role of stylist too, but Rebecca definitely took the lead this time.

I am really happy with the images, and I have no hesitation in recommending Rebecca. I feel she works very well with experienced photographers, but working with her would also be a fabulous learning experience for those who are beginners or less-experienced.

I set up a little meet up with the fabulous Vulgar Superstition at the Rural Life Vintage Revival in September. Myself and Lois J Elise met up with her and spent a wonderful few hours strolling around the amazing vintage event, doing a bit of shopping and taking a few cheeky portrait shots along the way! What can I say, she is an absolute gem to work with and a dream to photograph! We ended up coming away with some unexpectedly fabulous shots, thanks to the generosity of some amazing vintage car owners and the general fabulousness of the location! I felt like I was on a day out with a friend! I would 10000% recommend her and have already got our next shoot booked in. Yippee!

Wow, Wow, Wow! What an absolute delight it was working with Rebecca yesterday.

Initially replying to a casting call of mine ('Haunted Humans'), I must admit to feeling a little in awe (and a bit frightened!) at the prospect of working together in view of beautiful quality of the images on this portfolio; they're all so wonderful, enigmatic, alluring. More to the point, why on earth would Rebecca want to work with me? She's seen my portfolio, right? Is she mad?

Well the answer is no, she's not mad and that she has a dark and deep intellect somewhat oriented to dark things. Perfect. It became clear to me, the more we conversed, that we are actually a good fit; reinforced further by the sheer amount of wonderfully dark stuff she packed into the car and brought with her: skulls and bones galore in addition to many other dark oddities. Yes, Rebecca was very well prepared and totally committed to this shoot.

Shooting was relaxed and, in part, experimental; making things as we progressed while chatting throughout. Rebecca has a very interesting mind and is very engaging; conversation flowed effortlessly throughout and time flew by. Working with clay; covering eyes and mouth; deprived of senses Rebecca is fearless and enthusiastic. Even looking at the 'basic' images on B.O.C. I could clearly see that something very good was happening; excited at the prospect of editing.

So, in summary then: Rebecca's comms were regular and clear; she adopts a professional approach, is well (very) prepared. She's chatty, engaging, very interesting, very funny (and sarcastic - I love that!). Her beauty, both inner and outwardly, are an asset to any photographer, whatever the theme.

I'd wholeheartedly recommend Rebecca, but you didn't need me to tell you that did you.

Thanks Rebecca for a wonderful day and for traveling all that way!!! ❤😊

Rebecca was a pleasure to work with. Her attention to detail was first class. She new exactly what she wanted to achieve. Her confidence was of a high level and her creativity shone through the whole shoot. I urge you to work with this beautiful lady and guarantee that you will not regret it. I look forward to working with her again.

First shoot with the lovely Rebecca. It was great to work with this connoisseur of masterfully created images. Communication was first class throughout and Rebecca had put so much thought into the idea in advance. So no surprises on the day. Although I have already had in access of 200 shoots over four years I was concerned whether my talent would meet with the high quality of Rebecca's images to date. So for once a little nervous myself the shoot took place. Arthurian style mystical shoot. Rebecca is so easy to work with that I need not have been nervous. Witty, charming and with great knowledge and expertise on both sides of the creative process. Her attention to detail with her own presentation and developing a set was outstanding. Life is journey of learning and discovery and the shoot gave me the opportunity to learn more about my photographic craft. Rebecca's ability for make up, costume and posing was a master class. Rebecca allows a lighter more candid side to herself during the shoot. This made for a relaxed shoot and some great images. Certainly will recommend Rebecca to all photographers of all standards. Those wanting to learn and those with experience. I am certainly looking forward in having a chance to work with Rebecca in future. Thank you.

I cannot recommend shooting with R enough. We agreed the theme beforehand and our vision of the results aligned straight away. She brought an entire warehouse’s worth of props and a metric ton of ideas on the day, and we had a great time shooting together. She’s friendly but professional, and takes direction brilliantly. I can’t wait to get the shots edited up - the back of camera was fantastic!

Thank you for working with me, and I’m really looking forward to doing it again soon!

Would I recommend R? Most certainly, and for a multitude of reasons including good pre-shoot communications, choice of location, choice of outfit AND good conversation. No direction necessary either.

A stunning shoot in every, every respect and I cannot recommend this lady enough.

I can't recommend Rebecca highly enough. Our shoot yesterday was electric! Not only did she bring the most beautiful, well thought out outfits but she brought a car load of the most interesting curiosities for us to use as props. It was a scorching hot day in July, but she did her makeup beautifully in spite of the sweaty weather when you'd expect it to melt! I was impressed very much by those skills. THe shoot itself was fabulous. Rebecca has a really ethereal Pre-Raphaelite quality and a theatrical flare.

Her ivory completion and stunning red hair and bright sparkly eyes lended themselves to very romantic images and and she took direction so well! ( I guess that is all the areal hooping she practices! We had a real laugh while creating five distinctly different looks and styles... It was a long day, but I'm so happy with what we made. :-) Highly recommend. If you get the chance you will love working with this wonderful model.

Had such brilliant fun with Rebecca. Lovely human being with lots of ideas and props also!

Becca is an amazing character to work with. She is fun to be around but very professional and works hard to get the right shot. Her expressions are very versatile and she goes above and beyond with her wardrobe and props to make the shoot a success.

I had put a casting up to shoot in a beautiful bluebell field that I had found. Time was short and literally had one afternoon on which I could do the shoot so it was so pleased when Rebecca stepped up to shoot even though she isn't local. She drove for well over 3 hours but turned up with her hair and make up done perfectly. The weather was also against us and it rained on and off the whole time but im pleased to say we got some amazing images im very proud of. Totally recommended and hope we can work together again soon.

Had the most fun and relaxed time experimenting with long exposures and fairy lights with Rebecca. Pre shoot communication was brilliant and Rebecca was full of bright ideas. Her poses were natural and she took direction very well.

We had such a fun time shooting that we arranged another shoot very quickly after.

100% recommended!
