Build a stand-out portfolio that's authentic and versatile
Many photographers can take a good picture; fewer understand what actually works in a model’s book. These sessions are designed with that in mind — simple, striking, and industry-ready.
For new or developing models ready to elevate their portfolio with clean, professional imagery that agencies value, every shoot is built around authenticity, range, and confidence. Whether you’re applying to an agency, refreshing your book, or preparing for test shoots, each image is crafted to meet real agency standards — natural, expressive, and full of character.
Captured on the Fujifilm X-T5 using prime lenses chosen for their film-inspired colour and depth of character.

TESTIMONIAL
“While working with David to build my portfolio, he has not only met my expectations but far exceeded them.
My initial goal was simply to create a strong modelling portfolio that would open the right doors. From the very beginning, however, David was determined to think beyond the conventional, crafting a collection of striking images that highlight my individuality rather than merely my potential. He offered constructive feedback and valuable guidance, choosing to teach rather than simply direct.
I am deeply grateful to David for investing in me and recognising my potential”.
