Paul stumbled across my casting call by pure chance! I had undergone a shoot cancellation at Joel Hicks Photographic and it was almost like fate meant it to happen as the "everything happens for a reason" saying goes because we had such a wonderful shoot: lots of beautiful pictures in the bag and so many laughs! :D It was a terrific positive to come from a negative and thus I cannot recommend Paul enough!
It was an all-go kind of afternoon because I was finishing up on one shoot and then we organised for Paul to get picked up from the station... he arrived and we hit it off instantly! He is such a positive and charming gentleman that even when you first meet him it's like you've worked together loads before. We didn't have any definite ideas discussed before the shoot was to take place but that didn't matter because we played it wonderfully by ear which was creatively inspiring: I get booked for a lot of shoots that have a strict brief so sometimes it is just really nice to say "let's just see what inspires us on the day!" :D That is exactly what Paul and I did and we got everything from glamorous beauty through to humour. The time went so quickly and the results (a few of which Paul has edited to date) look absolutely gorgeous. Who needs a plan anyway! :P
Paul is almost as good as a lady as multitasking... I don't think we actually stopped talking at any point throughout the session so it's almost like: where did all these amazing pictures come from?? It felt like we just nattered for 3 hours about all sorts and drank tea/coffee. It's the kind of shoot which doesn't feel like work because you laugh a lot and just get on like a house on fire. Paul has a very creative eye for glamorous beauty and gives his models lovely feedback as they pose which is so encouraging.
A genuinely nice guy - very well mannered and respectful towards his models. Nothing is too much trouble and he treats everyone with so much courtesy, I cannot stress that enough. I very much look forward to working with Paul again in the future as we had such a wonderful session.
Thanks again Paul,
Keira x

I had a terrific first shoot with the lovely Keira at Joels studio last Saturday. My original plan was to do 2 hours outdoor with 1 hour to follow inside the studio, but the heavy rain led to our doing about 40 mins outdoor with the remaining time being spent in the studio.
Joel was very helpful with regard to setting up my camera to work correctly with the studio lights, and made me feel very welcome.
Keira was a joy to work with, and is able to pose with little or no direction, as well as coming up with well thought out and creative ideas/poses for shooting possibilities/options.
If you are looking for a very beautiful and immaculately groomed classic/art nude model with a highly developed artistic sense for striking beautiful poses, then Keira is the model to satisfy your requirements.
Highly recommended if you are looking for a truly beautiful and professional model to work with.
