My photoshoot session with John was excellent, John is a friendly and really professional individual who knows what he's doing. This was my first time ever having any professional photos taken and he made it feel as if I had been doing this for a while.John is really easy to work with and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for photography service.

Fantastic experience from the start to the end. It started with John meeting us at the door and greeting us warmly. He immediately got along well with my daughter so the shoot went really well. I also enjoyed John's company and conversation. Overall, a lovely, professional and wonderful experience.

We have been to see John for the first time this morning and had a very successful and enjoyable experience in the studio. Highly recommend Model Portfolio Photography. The studio is in a great location with free parking and what I liked the most is how transparent John is with the cost and expectations of the session. 10/10 and we will be back in future

5 star treatment. What an amazing man! So friendly, welcoming and full of knowledge. Thank you so much John for making our son’s first photoshoot experience enjoyable and stress free! Cannot recommend John enough. He has a real passion for his work and is so approachable. We had a trial photoshoot with our 7 month old to see how he would get on. From the minute we arrived John made us feel relaxed and our son was laughing all the way through the shoot.

Definitely a 5 star experience. John made our kids feel really at ease which meant we got some wonderful photos. He's clearly passionate about what he does and so knowledgeable about the industry. He's happy to share what he knows/offer hints/tips/insights during the shoot. Email communication before/after the shoot was spot on too. We're happy customers. The kids had fun and got a sense of what would be required if there were to take a modelling job.

Spent a couple of hours here today with John helping my daughter create a modelling portfolio. He done an amazing job and made my daughter feel so at ease within seconds of entering after being nervous for weeks. She loved the whole experience and never stopped smiling and laughing the whole time we were there. We never felt rushed and he took the time to get to know us all throughout the photoshoot, making the time to sit and talk to my 8 year old son and even inviting him into a couple of photos. Not only were his photos amazing, but, he is a genuinely nice guy and I will recommend him to everyone I know going forward. If you want a perfect and professional service with amazing photos and without the pressure sales at the end, then this is your guy. Highly recommended

Very friendly service. John even helped me carry my heavy suitcase up the stairs. Knew what he was doing. Gave me clear instructions on how to pose. Pictures were sent to me swiftly after payment, along with some useful information regarding agencies I could apply to with the photos. And said I could contact him again in the future if I needed any further help and advice. And purely from a financial viewpoint, £150 for a large selection of photos for you to choose from is, in my book, good value for money.

We really enjoyed our photoshoot, felt relaxed and at ease during the time. John clearly explained how the session would work and was really patient with us. It felt like a fun and play session as my daughter was constantly laughing and playing infront of the camera. I recommend Model Portfolio Photography for all people and especially those alittle unsure of getting infront of the camera.

I visited the studio with my 9 month old for a modelling portfolio shoot and was very impressed with the whole experience. John was great with my son making him laugh, allowing him to crawl and enjoy his time in the studio. We got some gorgeous shots that I will keep forever and hopefully will kickstart my son’s children’s modelling career. Thanks John, I hope to book another shoot in soon!

John at Model Portfolio Photography is an amazing photographer. I took my daughter for modelling photos and he put her at ease and made her laugh straight away. Even though my son wasn't the focus of the photos, he spent his time talking with him about photography and giving him tips to help him with is photography journey. The photos he took are amazing and we all love them. We will be going back in the future for updated photos and are hoping to go back before xmas for a family shoot. Choose John for all your photos, you won't regret it.

Had a great photoshoot with John. My daughter is reserved by nature and was nervous about the shoot but John made her feel at ease straight away and she was buzzing afterwards. The photos are amazing, better than we expected and John gave us some great guidance and tips for entering into the modelling world.
