What an amazing second shoot with John! This time we shot at my home. It was so lovely to have a catch up. The mentally stimulating conversation, combined with a natural flow of creativity made for what you could call the perfect shoot! John takes advantage of the natural light as it changes and we also took advantage of the different spaces in my home to create some amazing images! He has SUCH a passion for photography, and the knowledge to go with it, which is a killer combination! He is totally respectful and professional, friendly, kind, and just an all round joy to work with. I had the best time, thank you so much. I really do recommend him to other models and I also highly recommend him as a photography tutor, having heard rave reviews. I can’t wait until the next shoot!
After a great first home shoot, which was an amazing warm up, it was time to challenge us even more. We chose one of London's most amazing studios for it: The Factory Studio
The possibilities of working with beautiful backdrops and props are endless - THE ideal place to get creative with John.
I love to work with John as the whole shoot day is a wonderful flow covering different sets and working on every one with different lenses - making use of the shapes and poses I throw in and shooting it from different angles.
John nailed it!
Thanks for such a great fun shoot with great outcome (what I can judge from seeing some real WOW images on the back of the camera),

I had a great home shoot with JohnDuder today
The shoot was lovely and perfect for what we wanted to achieve
He was very professional and I highly recommend him to all

Many thanks
Scarlet :D
John answered my TFP studio casting for me and Nicola kiss to get some new pics.
Precoms were brilliant and he was brilliant when I had an issue and had to postpone for a couple weeks.
Was happy to shoot what we wanted and was ready to go all the time.
All the pictures given all the day which was requested.
Overall an absolutely brilliant shoot at bodyline and would like to do it again in a couple months.
Thanks G
I recently had the pleasure of working with John, and let me tell you, it was a model's dream! From start to finish, the communication was as smooth as a well-oiled camera lens. John was not only incredibly professional but also wasn’t afraid to direct me, which was fantastic. His directions made me feel like a model and a yoga instructor all at once—I struck poses I didn't even know I could do at my age!
The shoot was a blast, and we had so much fun experimenting with different styles. John’s extensive knowledge of photography was impressive, and he knew exactly how to capture both the flattering angles and the character-filled wrinkles that come with years of wisdom and five kids. We even took some weird and wonderful pictures using real film and unique lenses, which highlighted every line and laugh of my life. The photos turned out amazing, and I couldn't be happier with the results. If you ever get a chance to work with John, grab it like it’s the last slice of pizza—worth every bit! I cant wait to work with him again.

I had my first shoot with sir John dudar, who is teacher of editing and photography.
Very reliable comms beforehand as he helped me out big time by changing the date several times to accommodate those who are less flexible than he is. I met him at the location we agreed on which was greengate studio. He is an editor of a kind. The photos looked awesome. His photography was very skilled. He is a reliable guy.
He brought his camera equipment to take photos of me. As discussed beforehand, he was flexible to what outfits I had with me on tour. He took photos of me in different parts of the studio, the studio he insisted we go to. We did dark to light, and full shots to close ups.
I felt comfortable with John, with Frank in the office. The photos are very good and the shoot went very quickly.
He was easy to chat to and he didn't push my levels.
After the shoot, he kindly drove me to the hosting location where my car was.
I hope to work with him again soon.
Highly recommending him to other models

Attended one of John's events at The Lampworks where I spent 4 hours photographing the amazing Amber Belle. John had prepared the studio perfectly and had set up a range of excellent lighting setups. John was able to assist and advise me when asked. The shoot could not have gone more smoothly.
I had a great first shoot with John. I liked it because he knew exactly what he wanted to shoot and had a fantastic set of different lenses and lighting.
We got some great images and I am very much looking forward to shooting again soon.
Highly recommended, a pleasure to work with.
Had my first shoot with John on 18th Dec as part of his older models project (Is 50 old?, I dont feel it, but I certainly cant do the splits anymore... Lol). John arrived early to set up despite having quite a distance to travel, coms were very good during the messaging before the shoot and the content and details of the shoot were discussed and agreed beforehand, the entire shoot went brilliantly, it was fun and the results were amazing. John is a perfect gentleman and has more cameras than you could shake a stick at. Its the first time in about 10 years Ive actually been shot on 35mm film and not just digital. I Enjoyed the whole experience and wouldnt hesitate to work with John again if (when ?) he asks.

Mr John Duder! What a charismatic gentleman and a superb photographer.
My shoot with John was an absolute delight, and from the very first minute of our eventual meeting and due to our pre-shoot communications, we developed a wonderful understanding which enabled the shoot to progress without complication.
Our time together went far too quickly, possibly because of the copious amount of tea and biscuits consumed....all thanks to John ;-)
A thoroughly enjoyable shoot, one which I would dearly love to do again.
John comes with the highest possible recommendation from me. Try him. You will have no regrets
Thank you John.

John introduced me to ss creative studio today and I am so glad he did, what a studio!!!
I adore working with John, he is a fountain of knowledge of which I am very grateful that he is willing to share. He has a fabulous photography 'kit' (I'm quite envious if I'm honest) and he manipulates it to perfection. John is a breath of fresh air to work with and on so any levels. Aside from going with one of my hair brained ideas today (he indulges me in that respect) he threw a theme at me and left me to source the outfits. He liked my choices, knew exactly where in the studio they would work best and the resulting images blew me away. Just when I thought we couldn't top the last shoot (when will I learn) he not only tops it but tops it with bells on. An absolute gentleman I hope I get many many more chances to work with John and would recommend him in a heartbeat. Thank you xxx
Always a pleasure working with John, he is such good company, a great photographer and a real fountain of knowledge. I'm going to add 'trusting' to his list of endearing qualities today after he braved my driving and my battered car (wasn't me!!). Lovely location shoot, I'm sure the numerous people out on walks in the middle of nowhere who simply wouldn't go away despite John offering directional help would totally agree too!! Got some great pics, got some rather unique pics and got some unusual but usual for me pics. Thoroughly enjoyable afternoon. Thank you John xx
I am so grateful to John for organizing a shoot at The Pit today. Apart from the fact that I have been wanting to shoot there for ages, I wasn't sure what to expect but it was wonderful. I was lucky enough to be working with John (who is pretty damn awesome) and 2 other photographers, they all made me feel extremely at ease and allowed me to bring my ideas into reality. He is so easy to work with, very respectful and wonderful company. I am already looking forward to our next venture. Thank you xx
Did a shoot today with John at starlight photography studio which was very fun, different and got some different and amazing images
I highly recommend this photographer to any model
Can't wait to see the images and thanks again x
wow, what a delightful day I've had! Chauffered, cared for and appreciated. After excellent precommunication John and I had our much anticipated shoot today, despite the weather we got some cracking shots. Considerate, knowledgeable and articulate John is a dream to work with, and with his navigational skills - who needs a sat nav?!?!?!?
A gentleman through and through, I would 100% recommend John
hope I have the pleasure again soon!!
Yet another fantastic shoot by Mr Duder! :)
we gained some amazing images which I am still excitedly sorting through now!
John is wonderfully talented, generous, easy to talk to and certainly isn't afraid to experiment with different ideas which certainly sets him aside from the rest.
Thank you John for more stunning images, great company and something to look forward to.
Speak soon, Rosa xox
Yet again a great shoot with John and a friend....we have become very good friends and he is highly recommended...thanks John for being great ;)
John offered to do me a tuition day on the subject of indoor/model lighting.
He is incredibly knowledgeable about the subject, and managed to explain a huge amount in only one day, the lighting setups were all practical to arrange and it was easy to see good results from it.
Great host, easy to get along with (we had very similar tastes in books) nice lunch and cups of tea ...
