Wow! What an experience. I've been shooting models for 20 years and didn't think it was still possible to be blown away by a model like I was today. This lady is both beautiful inside and out. Her stunning look is matched by her wonderful personality. What you see , is matched by what you get. She is real,nothing false or forced. A complete joy to work with. We will be doing this again.

I've lost count of how often I've shot with the amazing Mel. I'm incredibly lucky that she lives not too far away, so it's fairly easy to find out when she is available and fit into a small time slot. This time we'd aimed for 2 hours. Which, if you put aside the chat I'm sure we did.

Mel came up with the ideas, patiently waited as I struggled along, and looked amazing as I stumbled about, at one point risking life and limb by having me perched above her.

As always the images were great, I'm delighted to have worked with Mel again before she takes her 2019 break. Thanks Mel

As always, highly recommended

After trying to coordinate our diaries for the last 9 months we finally got to shoot today and I must say, it was well worth the wait.

This was the third time I'd worked with Mel and she never fails to impress.

If you are requiring an elegant, classy model full of personality and professionalism give Mel a shout.

Highly recommended and I already look forward to our next shoot. Hopefully we won't leave it too long.

Thanks Mel. A class act.

Melissa & I arranged this shoot whilst at another shoot at Scarlet Door. Her comms are impecable leading to our shoot today.

Melissa arrived on-time and with ideas of clothing to fit the theme of the shoot. We shot two sets with various outfits and throughout Melissa was positive, talkative and has great humour. Melissa is really professional and knows her craft well so much so that we have started to talk about our next shoot together. Highly recommended.

I have followed Melissa’s beautiful work for over 6 years and finally I felt ready to create something with her . She came to stay for a couple of days and I can confidently claim that we rocked it.

A relaxed atmosphere of calm enabled us to find art in a myriad of themes ranging from a few sheer fun pieces to one particular dramatic moving film which is without doubt the most authentic thing I have ever shot in this particular setting.

Melissa is one stunning and gifted young woman and I count myself very fortunate to have worked with her.

Already planning for next time and it will be completely different !

I had my first shoot with Melissa as part of one of Paul's Manor House Days. She is a superb model and her wide experience and expertise were obvious from the moment we got the first shots. She is friendly, patient, helpful with ideas/suggestions, and really laid back while being totally professional.

Highly recommended.

Mellisa was one of model dream team at the Manor House Event. Melissa is a very intuitive and reliable hardworking model.

Melissa has worked at Pauls Studio so many times I've lost count and one of the most reliable models and very creative & talent and you can book Melissa here anytime.

I had a group shoot (was 3 of us) with Melissa yesterday at a Manor House, arranged by Paul’s Studio.

Came away with a great and varied set of photos of Melissa. Mel was superb in dealing with the requests of the three of us and was lovely and easy to get along with. Many thanks Melissa for everything, especially your patience and understanding of the manic photographers 😃.

I definitely recommend.

I worked with Mel at the manor house event organised by Paul's studio. I was so lucky to be given the chance to shoot Mel, she is so natural and elegant with her effortless posing. Thanks for the hard work Mel, it was a pleasure to meet you.

I arranged a duo shoot with Melissa and Ija Del Mar. Both girls arrived very enthusiastic and looks surprised about my professional studio. We did a lot off different styles and try different light techniques. Everything goes very fluid and both models didn't afraid to give themselves. Ija's boyfriend even help me as assistant with the reflection panel.They both very friendly and understand easily what you want.

Thanks girls for this nice shoot I can only highly recommended you both !

First of all I must appologise for a very late referance. I have now lost count of the No. of times I have shot with Melissa. She really is great to work with and every time we work together we manage to produce images I'm very prowd off and i certainly look forward to working with her again soon

My second shoot with Melissa and, this time, it was one to one.

Having shot Melissa before, I expected that it would be very good and it was. She is fun and easy to work with and she has helped me produce some great images.

I'll be shooting her again. I already have some ideas for the next time.

Last Saturday I had my first shoot with Melissa at Sandon Studios. From the moment we met I felt we were on the same page regarding ideas for our time shooting together.

I feel we were getting great shots right from the very start as Melissa is a superb model with some great ideas of her own.

We have already talked about a future shoot so from that you might guess Melissa comes very highly recommended.

Melissa just keeps on getting better and better at what she does. There is nothing more to add. Don't mess about; book a professional. Highly regarded by me and all those listed below!.

The Infinite Curves

Yet another fab shoot with the amazing Mel! Total professional with great input to help construct the images, stunning posing and those legs...! Totally recommended to all.

Mel is just awesome.....

My third shoot with Melissa. The last one as a couple of years ago. I must be daft - why, oh why, oh why did I leave it so long to arrange another shoot with her?

You'll have seen Melissa's 349 other glowing references. It's all been said about her before, but what the heck - I'll say it again anyway... She's highly experienced, very creative, versatile, enthusiastic, energetic, and has a great eye for styling. Anything else? Well - there's also her lovely unpretentious personality, great sense of humour and her 100% professionalism in every respect. So the shoot was not only highly productive but was also hugely enjoyable.

To sum up, Melissa is one of the very best models I've ever had the pleasure of working with.

Oh its been a such a long time since we last shot thanks to various circumstances that have foiled our plans this year. However we took up again at the super location of South House Retreat at the weekend and it was instantly back to rapport and creativity (mind you it was our 16th shoot together). Mel is not only a person I consider a friend but an amazingly talented model. I've said it before in previous references but she has an innate sense of symmetry and with her long limbs she can create shapes like no other model I have yet met. I am delighted that her 'retirement' was merely a pause and I look forward to many more shoots with her.
