This reference is long overdue.

I have only had the pleasure of working with Xenia once and from that session we have had 3 FPI’s and published 3 different Sets we did, including The Lace Mask series in different magazines.

Xenia is amazingly versatile and creative. We bounced ideas off each other and the results speak for themselves.

I have another shoot coming up and really excited to see what she will create to go with the clothing I bought especially for her.

It’s superfluous to say but I will,

I can highly recommend her to anyone who wants to create amazing photos and have a fun filled session.

Wow, or according to the wonders of google translate, ух ты !!

I recently had the absolute pleasure of working with amazing Xenia at her equally amazing Zavod Studio in Sheffield.

Xenia is an exceptional model, makeup artist, stylist and an all around lovely person.

She’s über friendly and totes professional - working with her was an absolute pleasure as she consistently delivered outstanding results, making it difficult to choose which images to edit, we had so many keepers it was off the charts!

Her versatility in posing, sense of professional fun and willingness to try any daft thing I could dream up puts her up there with some of the best models I’ve worked with.

Xenia was super well-prepared with loads of gorgeous outfits and creative ideas which totally enhanced the shooting experience.

We did a variety of indoorsy and outdoorsy stuff, and every single set was fantastic.

From her welcoming and professional demeanour to her outstanding poses, Xenia proved to be a top-notch model which made the day so memorable, and as i said, up there with the best!!

I highly recommend booking Xenia as you won't be disappointed.

Thank you, Xenia, for an enjoyable and incredible shoot. I'm looking forward to our next session!

ps. daft stuff said on the day:

“you can move that rack”

“that was a secret Santa present from (noticeable pause) Santa”

pps. she's not too shabby ;)

I worked with Xenia at a ballet event orgainzed by Tabitha Boydell. It was a great event with many great dancers. One of those great dancers was Xenia. She was marvellous to work with and I love the results. I will work again with her some day.

I highly recommend her to all of you photographers out there.

Tabitha Boydell

If you want a model who works her ass off and consistently delivers....book Xenia

If you want a model who can do her own hair and makeup to a high standard....book Xenia

If you want a model who is passionate about all aspects of modelling....book Xenia

If you want a model who can manage demanding groups at a workshop and get fantastic feedback....book Xenia

If you want one of the best models not just on PP but in the UK...book Xenia

She's also an amazing photographer, which as a model is a really good skill to have, to know where the light is coming from

You get my points anyway :)

Met Xenia for the first time at one of Tabitha Boydell's amazing events. Xenia was just fantastic, very full of life and ready to give some awesome poses. Nothing was too much trouble and the time just flew by. Would love to work with Xenia again in the future. Such a good model.

I have to declare it…I love working with Xenia! Only my second time working with her yesterday and it was so good seeing her in her native environment up at Zavod Studio. Xenia is one of those rarer models who not only understands both sides of the camera and lighting, but she gets deeply invested in each set and makes sure we nail it. She looks fab, does fab makeup looks, has killer outfits and her posing just seems to flow so naturally and this reflects in the images you can capture. I came away with several epic shots for every single set and that rarely happens. We both came away so buzzing and already talking about next time where we're going full on creative make up with an HMUA..can’t bloomin’ wait!

Had the pleasure of two shoots with Xenia in three days - which is probably why I'm feeling a bit knackered this morning. First event was at Parktannas Retro Yard on a Tabitha Boydell event and second was a one-to-one session at Kelham Island (Sheffield) in advance of a planned shoot next month. On both occasions Xenia was her usual self - full of ideas and energy and just great fun to be with and to photograph. I would highly recommend Xenia.

Wow, Xenia has been on my list for some time now.

Finally had the pleasure on a shoot at a stunning location, with some amazing dresses and other lovely models on a organised event.

Really enjoyed the day and got some fantastic images inside and out of the venue.

Xenia had a stunning red dress on with a mix of headdress on the day.

I have been told she was a brilliant model my lots of different photographer's and can not agree more.

Had the pleasure to have a quick chat at the end of the day to talk about her studio In Sheffield and definitely hoping to organise something.

Big thanks for a fantastic shoot and hopefully see you again soon.

Thanks John.

PGD Modelling and Photography Studios

Xenia has worked here at PGD a couple times now. Both times she has arrived early

prepared and full of ideas for the shoot.

Xenia always seems to have a smile on her face and is happy to work with you to create.

If you haven't had the chance to work with Xenia yet then you need to get yourself booked in, she is fantastic and a well organised model that you are guaranteed to get some winning portfolio images.

Highly recommended

I was privileged to work with Xenia for the second time yesterday during the Group shoot organised by Dave Linford at Hirst Priory. Xenia was again superb to work with and she really is a font of knowledge on the model and photography side. Over 2 shoots I think she's probably taught me more than I've managed to teach myself in the last 2 years:) Her chosen outfits for the day were superb and complimented the extravagance of the venue which was just amazing. Xenia flowed from one pose and photographer to the next giving the photographers so many fantastic opportunities to capture some great shots. She's hard working and full of energy for the day, a true professional.

Thanks Xenia....till next time

Highly recommended

I had an excellent group shoot with Xenia at Hirst Priory, an event organised by Dave Linford.

This was my first shoot with Xenia and hopefully not my last, she was superb. Xenia's knowledge of working with natural light was spot-on, she is so easy to work with, her outfits, makeup, posing, in fact everything about her was at a very high standard.

100% recommended.

Enjoyed the pleasurable experience of working, as part of a group shoot, with Xenia at Hirst Priory.

Down to earth, pulled no punches, easy to work with, full of ideas, great look - no not me, Xenia...

Look forward to working with you again!

It's always fun to work with Xenia and when you throw Marie-Jean Saxton into the mix you know it's going to be a great session. This was at the event at Hirst Priory - superbly organised by David Linford. As ever Xenia enthusiastically threw herself into action - her posing flow is outstanding and she is always full of ideas and keen to try something different. Xenia had certainly styled her outfits to fit the venue (which was also excellent) and I've come away with rather a large number of images to work through!

Colin Daniels

I met Xenia for the first time at a styled shoot at Tabley hall we had a great laugh from start to finnish easy to work with such a joy

i would gladly recomend Xenia to all levels of photographer

Hannah Lunn

Recommended Xenia for a client shoot yesterday - As always she was superb.

Pre-shoot communication was brilliant, direction taken like a pro and she really understood the brief and was able to help deliver exceptional images.

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend her for future shoots! Always a pleasure ♥

Keep it Classy

Now what can I say that’s not been put before about Xenia? When one simple word sums her up a that is Flawless.

From first point of contact I knew I would get on with her a that was exactly how it turned out. Before the shot a beyond her Communications were perfect as Xenia knew exactly what I was looking to shoot which she delivered beautifully. This shoot was more a beauty shoot an Xenia did it all herself. An each look she created was stunning. A she gave 150% to the shoot an if I had one small critique over that shoot as that she needs to give herself a bit of time during a shoot. If she’s not in front of the camera she’s in doing makeup so she doesn’t stop.

I basically loved this shoot with Xenia. A will be working with her again for sure. As she’s a team player a that’s what I look for in models to work with. So thank you for everything on this shoot again Flawless

I had the immense good fortune to work with this superlative model at the Strangetown studio this evening. Her styling, posing and communication were all superb!!

David Rann @Strangetown Studio

What an incredible model!!

I booked Xenia for one of my "Strangetown Shoots" model evenings here at Strangetown Studio. Pre-shoot Comms were excellent and her professionalism throughout has been exemplary. She listened to my ideas and added a few of her own (she has an excellent understanding of photography and lighting as a photographer herself). My group LOVED her and why wouldn't they? It's not often a model is so stunning, versatile AND charming. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Jeff Boston

First time shooting with Xenia and what an amazing experience. Without doubt one of the most versatile, accomplished and professional models I have worked with. Everything about working with Xenia is a pleasure, listens to any directions and does everything to get the shot, she poses effortlessly, is emotive, expressive, agile and, also being a photographer, has a unique handle on being both sides of the camera. Highly recommended and would welcome the opportunity of working with Xenia again in the future.

Many thanks for a great shoot Xenia.
