Peter and I had been in discussion about arranging a video shoot for some time; it wasn't until recently that we managed to seal a date and make it happen but as the very true, famous saying goes: good things come to those who wait... only it wasn't good, it was fantastic! :D
Peter is a joy to work with in every aspect, not only outstandingly professional in his approach during pre-shoot communications and clear on his brief but a total gentleman when it came to model comfort and generally making certain that all of what we shot was okay by me etc. one of the most courteous photographers I have ever met, that is for sure; he recognises that modelling underwater is physically more demanding than on dry land and was always asking after me when I came up for breath. :P He knows his style well and we were into a great flow from the outset: we just bounced off each other and even though I spent a great deal of my time underwater when receiving instructions wasn't always possible, Peter gave grand descriptions of details and where to go next with the poses so we got the best out of each set. Working with him was a blast, his on-set feedback drives you more and the team value was just epic.
He is awesome at what he does for certain and utilises locations so productively; creatively fun to work with for sure! There was a lot of variety we shot without having to use 100's of outfits etc. because Peter has a great vision for what works in his video work and works with his models to bring out the best in them.
Safe to say I am very much looking forward to working with Peter again in the future and will be rolling my sleeves up to beat how long I can remain underwater for! Very highly recommended without a shadow of a doubt... a genuinely lovely person and terrific videographer.
Thanks again Peter!
