Although this was my third visit to GMac’s Studio, it was my first shoot with the man himself! On a previous visit I admired an array of coloured shibari rope and fell in love with the baby pink. GMac kindly offered a TFP shoot to play with the rope in an art nude shoot and I’m delighted that I jumped at the offer because this was a very fun shoot!

GMac was professional and considerate throughout - his rigging skills are excellent and he immediately reassures with his safety knowledge and consideration. We created some beautiful ties and I only hope my modelling did justice to his creations. He listened to my comments about lighting and he was accommodating of my needs - somehow suppressing any impulse to throw things at me even when I was making bad jokes!

GMac is fun and entertaining and I highly recommend working with him - and I continue to be in love with his studio. It is certainly bijou but fully equipped and space is used well with multiple setups and a dazzling array of props and displays around the walls that keep things interesting.

I definitely hope I get to work with GMac again!

Singular Vision is highly recommended; friendly, welcoming and accommodating. Communications were good. Had a lovely chat while modelling and was intrigued by his willingness to experiment during the shoot. All in all an enjoyable day of modelling and I hope to work with him again.

My first shoot with Ray and hopefully not my last. Pre-shoot comms were good and Ray chose to keep our first shoot simple so that we could learn how to work together before trying something more complex. Throughout Ray was professional and knew his craft. I particularly wanted to work with Ray because of his knowledge of lighting and he didn't disappoint. We got some great images and I look forward to building on our collaboration in the future. Recommended.

I urgently needed a passport-style up to date image to use for a personal ID and so I put out a casting call for a portrait shoot - which is not my usual genre. FIPArt responded and was kind enough to arrange a TFP shoot. I was nervous about portrait work because I don't really know how to model for this, but FIPArt was professional throughout and worked hard to put me at my ease. He really knows what he is doing and although his studio is bijoux, it is well equipped and he knows how to light his subject effectively.

The shoot was friendly and enjoyable and I would definitely work with FIPArt again - in fact I may have to because the deal was to arrange some portfolio stuff for himself during the shoot but I talked so much that we ran out of time! My bad!

A word of warning, though; FIPArt is experienced with working with models, and his professionalism extends to providing really nice biscuits, but they weren't Jaffa Cakes...

Also he does have an unfortunate disability; he seems unable to appreciate Star Trek and Doctor Who for some reason...

Worked with FreeScot today in a great location. I had a ball squeezing myself into the cracks of trees and rocks and FreeScot was kind enough to give me free range to play with the location as much as I wanted. Great weather too! He also gave me a lift to and from the location which was really helpful. I hope I have the chance to work there again soon!

What you really crave from a photographer is a willingness to try things, even if out of their comfort zone, and a dedication to their craft. Dave has both of these qualities. I value his understanding of light and his feel for a quality image and his willingness to explore new areas - both creatively and literally (and he has the low-ceiling induced bumps on his head to prove it!). Dave is a joy to work with and easy to talk to about ideas - plus he gave me a lift home during a hailstorm, so I’m grateful for that! Highly recommended!

I had the pleasure of modelling with Mandy, and her husband, today in a implied adult threesome photoshoot with @Luminitation. Mandy is very easy to work with, she's fun and takes direction and suggestions well, and I enjoyed working with her. Her husband is also a great guy and easy to get along with. Both were very focused on creating great images but also in contributing to a relaxed and friendly environment for the shoot. They were good company and completely relaxed with the needs of the shoot. I would recommend them and really hope I get to work with them again soon.

Worked with Dave today on an implied-adult threesome shoot with Tattooed Minx and her husband. Dave was careful to meet our needs - even giving me a lift! He was professional and courteous throughout and also a good laugh. I enjoyed working with him and hope to be able to work with him further soon.

I had been discussing a photoshoot with Rebel Images for years. The shoot was themed around his motorbike and was based at Creativ Studios in Leicester. Rebel Images discussed ideas with me and pre-shoot comms were good. On the day he was courteous and accomodating and we discussed the way the shoot should take place. Rebel Images worked hard to achieve great shots and was willing to hear my ideas and feedback.

Worked with Joshua today. Circumstances were not ideal (light was poor and, although it was mild for the time of year, it was still cold!) but Joshua was enthusiastic and friendly and happily tramped us through the woods in search of fallen logs to lie on and beds of leaves to crouch in - even waving a fern frond at me to simulate ground cover! The shoot was fun and the location superb. Definitely want more of this! Photographer is highly recommended!

Worked with Nicksee on my first POV shoot and could not have asked for a more professional photographer! We struggled a little with low lighting conditions, despite the kit Nicksee had brought with him, but Nicksee gave great direction, was charming and friendly and quickly put at ease any nerves I had over the shoot style. I hope I get to work with him again on his next UK visit!

My first shoot with Marshall Photography and my first collaboration with the wonderful Yasin. Marshall Photography have a wonderful, extensive studio with 8 or more setups ranging from a Lounge to a Garden to a Gym, along with high-key and low-key setups and greenscreen. They have an extensive collection of costumes and props ranging from fetish wear, to military, to a canoeing squirrel!!! I enjoyed my shoot immensely! Instructions were direct and clear which was refreshing and easy to follow. Communication was good and Graham and his business partner/sidekick/dogsbody were great fun to work with. We laughed and chatted and at one point discussed the authorship of Shakespeare's plays! Photography was professional and expert, intimate but not intrusive. Yasin was a pleasure to work with as well and the four of us got along very well together. A fantastically professional setup and a joy to model in. I hope I get to work with these gents many more times in the future and I look forward to posing with all their setups and raiding their wardrobe and prop-room extensively!!!! Highly recommended!!!

I have known Dan on Social media for years but this was the first time working with him (duo shoot with KVS) and I found him friendly, professional and easy to get along with. He wasn't pushy, let us find our own pace during the modelling and he had a well-equipped studio. I can't wait to see the images!!!

Third visit to GP Erotica and the best yet!!! Continuing to work in their professionally-equipped home-studio, we aimed this time for art-nude, Bodyscapes, and Shibari Semi-Suspension. Working, as before, with a tethered camera there was great communication and development of ideas and I am really proud of the imagery we created on this visit. We started with some props I had brought with me and worked with a wooden kendo sword and facemasks, creating some truly artistic and moody images. Bodyscapes is my favourite genre but not something I have ever really worked for before, but GP Erotica were not fazed by this! With a professionalism born of great experience they set up a single-point lighting rig with fantastic shadows and modelling, sprayed me up with oil and water and we created probably some of my favourite images in my whole portfolio. Then it was time for shibari and, getting more adventurous yet, we moved to semi-suspension. Again I was keen to explore the theme of vulnerability and GP Erotica tied me to a bamboo support in a spreadlegged position which created such a powerful image of strength and susceptibility, with an overarching feeling of elegance, that I was totally blown-away by the results. My favourite shibari work so far. I can’t wait to work with them again, with each visit the work we create gets better and better, I can’t recommend them highly enough.

My second visit to the husband and wife team that is GP Erotica and we aimed for this shoot to be a little more adventurous. The theme was still “Art Nude” but we intended a more erotic edge to the shoot on this occasion. Again we worked in their well-equipped and professional home-studio and their style is friendly and personable. Again, by working tethered, it was possible to review the work we created and to discuss ideas as we went along. The shoot on this occasion looked to try and create a male-version of some fantastic imagery they’d shot with some of their female models and, although we were not entirely successful with this, we had great fun along the way and still created some magnificent imagery. The shoot progressed to some shibari rope bondage work and again safety was a prime consideration. On this occasion I was keen to explore the theme of vulnerability and we aimed to tie for maximum exposure, minimum control. I am greatly satisfied with the results and the images are some of my most liked on this site. Highly recommended!

This was my first shoot with GP Erotica, a husband and wife team with a lovely (and warm!) home studio. Well equipped and surprisingly roomy with adaptations for shibari suspension and a professional-quality lighting system. GP Erotic work with tethered cameras so it is possible – and helpful – to see the images as they take them and to review the work being achieved as we go along. Friendly, personable and full of character – and that’s just their cat! – GP Erotica are a joy to work with. This shoot focused on creating a montage of dance-themed poses and finished with some light shibari rope bondage. The tying is a little slow – which restricts the amount of work that can be done in any one session – but was performed confidently and expertly with an appropriate regard to safety and the comfort (within reason – it wouldn’t be bondage if it was TOO comfortable!) of the model. Resulting images were of high quality. GP Erotica are highly recommended.

I worked with Si in 2014 - Si came to me and we travelled to a nearby piece of waste ground where we created some art-nude work in the trees. We had a great rapport going, which always makes a modelling session a joy, and had a free flow of ideas between us. Communications were great, Simon was reliable and professional and we also had some great conversations. I also enjoyed the images at the end of the shoot, I hope I get a chance to work with Si again soon!
