Experience:

Many thanks for dropping by to look at my profile..

A little about me...

I pride myself on being professional at all times and always happy to work with models who are looking to gain experience or build a portfolio which could be beneficial to both parties. I fully accept the need for model security and can provide references from previous assignments and accept chaperones on locations and studio shoots; however, these are limited to one per model unless accompanied by both parents or guardians.

Shoot Spoilers

Whilst this may seam obvious, after recent events the following is no longer acceptable from paid professionals:-

Nail bitters
Broken chipped nail polish
Late nights/Booze nights
Poor preparation of hair and body
Inadequate Wardrobe
Failure to listen to the brief
Lack of personal grooming

And finally,

I am happy to remain an amateur but my approach and attitude to photography is professional and as such I would like to be treated the same manner. If you are serious about working with me then please have the kindness to give me at least 48 hours prior to any cancellation.

P.S - I am not looking for payment/paid assignments or commissions as I do not have the spare time available to commit to such ventures.

I have worked with Simon several times now over the years, and we always have a nice relaxed fun shoot! And We always produce great images together. I would recommend Simon to any model. He always makes me feel 100% comfortable,hes reliable and shoots like a pro! Any model who has the chance to work with him should jump at it!!

Had a great shoot with Simon today. He knew exactly what he wanted and was good directing when necessary. Simon is a real creative and has a passion for his photography. I look forward to seeing some of the shots & working with Simon again hopefully.
