Due to the vagaries of the rail system Gem arrived for her first shoot at Studio-Dee bit later than planned, this understandably made her a little nervous and over apologetic during the short trip from the station to the studio. This did cause me some concerned about how the day would go, however, once Gem started shooting a confident and capable young lady emerged. The first couple of hours was spent with a local photographer who keen to shoot with Gem, this got her totally relaxed and by the time it was my turn to shoot with her she was just so at home and enjoying being in front of the camera it was a joy to work with her.
We tried some sets that were new to Gem but nothing was a problem for her she just rolled with each request and produced some fantastic work capturing the mood of each set perfectly (that is once she stopped laughing)
Although we had a late start Gem was keen that we got the full time as agreed and delayed her trip home to fit everything in even though she had a hot date that evening!
Would I recommend this model? Without hesitation, her work ethic, intelligence and willingness to try new things while being personable to the nth degree is a rare quality in one so young.
We are already trying to get her back for another shoot before her fees go up.
Thanks, Gem please come back soon.
