Testimonials

This is what our models have said about their experiences with Stiletto Photography.

Lesley (42) and Steve (44), UK/South Africa

When Steve asked if I would like anything special for Christmas, I mentioned the fact that I would love to have some photographs taken before I get too old and decrepit! Initially it was meant to be just myself, and then I suggested having some taken of us both together. Steve loved the idea. So it was to be our special Christmas gift to each other.

On the day of the shoot we were both very nervous ... I was shaking at first. However, Kristin and Mark made us both feel relaxed and helped to take away some of those self conscious feelings that we were having as we were thrust into the limelight. They chatted to us, made us laugh and poured us glasses of champagne. A few photographs later we were loving every minute of the shoot and the end came far too quickly.

A very big thank you Kristin and Mark for making it an experience that we shall always remember and for capturing our love on film. The photographs exceeded all of our expectations and will be displayed proudly in our new home.

Nursery Nurse (24), Mother of 1, UK



I was totally in shock when I got the photo shoot off my husband for Valentine’s Day. I didn’t quite know what to expect, but Mark and Kristin were so professional and I felt relaxed as soon as I walked in. I would definitely go back again. I felt very special and didn’t want to leave!

I was very pleased with my photographs. They now take pride and place on the bedroom wall.

Thank you so much!

Love Toni xx





Robert (43) & Jeanette (42), both professionals, UK

We were both very nervous at first, but after a few minutes (some pictures later), everything was fine. Mark & Kristin were very professional throughout our photo shoot. The whole experience was great and the photographs were fantastic. Jeanette looked amazing. I was lost for words. We would recommend it to all. Thanks Mark & Kristin for the whole experience and good luck for the future!

Neelam (56), Care Professional, United Kingdom


I had been toying with the idea of a glamour picture as a present for my 56th birthday for a long time before everything did start going South!!

Mark & Kristin proved to be the nicest couple. I had never posed in front of a camera like the way I "cut loose" with them. I was at such ease with them, that I ended up having one of the most exciting days of my life. I really felt like a super model, and was quite amazed at myself, pouting and posing like a young girl. I felt so good about myself and so very much alive, I really had superb fun.

Professionalism personified, they themselves are superbly presented with the clients' best interest always at their heart. I wish this young couple well deserved luck in their business venture. They inspire confidence, ease and trust in their client. I surely shall be persuading my boyfriend to come along for a 2nd shoot with me!

Ella & Emma (early 30s) both professionals, United Kingdom

“We were giddy when it got to the day of the shoot... But it was brilliant. We had such fun and such a giggle, we egged each other on during the shoot and advised on what looked right. Kristin and Mark are tasteful, creative professional people and fun too, we felt comfortable with them. But having your friend there doing exactly the same and telling you the truth just reassures you that you're not making a prat of yourself. And with a small glimpse of the results at the shoot you know you're in good hands.

The studio and its location are ideal, tucked away from the main road on a quiet farm, it's not like turning up to a business or someone's house with the neighbourhood knowing what you're up to. The studio itself is tasteful and elegantly laid out... and the champagne on arrival helped with the nerves. By the time we'd done the bikini photos we were liking the results and ready for more seductive poses.

We really enjoyed the experience. We have some great shots of ourselves and aren't afraid of putting on display in our homes because they look more like artwork. We would highly recommend Stiletto Photography to all our friends of all ages, we had a blast and it's given us something to look back on, laugh about and for our boyfriends something to admire forever. “



Carol (50), Project Manager, United Kingdom


I was on a bit of a mission; I wanted some photos done of myself for two reasons. Firstly as a special Christmas present for my husband and secondly to prove to myself that I really was still “fabulous at fifty” as my husband said. I picked up the leaflet for Stiletto in my hairdressers and after debating with myself “should I – shouldn’t I?” I thought why not and decided to give it a go!

Kristin and Mark were terrific, they really do help you relax and make you feel good about yourself, along with making the shoot fun. I couldn’t wait to see the photos and wasn’t disappointed when I did. So mission accomplished, a special Christmas present for hubby, which he really appreciated, and I can look at my album & remind myself I really am “fab at fifty!”

Thanks Mark & Kristin. Carol x



Lorraine (53) and Graham (54), United Kingdom


We had a wonderful day! Although nervous at first we were still very excited. Kristin and Mark soon helped us to relax and we had a great deal of fun. From start to finish the whole experience was conducted with the utmost professionlism. Everything was taylored to meet our needs. We are immensely pleased with our photos and the love we have for each other really comes out in them. Graham was lost for words when he saw the ones of me on my own. I (Lorraine) now feel really good about my body (at 53 years I rock). It wouldmake a fantastic Valentine's gift, we would recmmend it to anyone.

Jayne, 48, Nurse & Beauty Specialist (2 children), United Kingdom


I had a rather tall order... to do some glamorous photos with me and my Motorbike. Mark and Kristin's eyes fairly lit up with the challenge, and they didn't dissapoint.
The whole day was great fun and Mark and Kristin were so encouraging that I felt I had known them for ages which helped me relax and get into the spirit. They make you feel and look gorgeous!!

The pictures are amazing, I can't wait to be able to show my grand children (who are not yet born) and say "This was your Granny at 48". I love them !

Thanks to Mark and Kristin for a very special day.

Sarah, 25, Beauty Salon Owner, United Kingdom


I wanted to have some sexy photographs taken of me. I was excited about the shoot but didn’t want to get my hopes up for the photo viewing in case I didn’t look that great in them.
I couldn’t believe that it was me in the pictures. They were fantastic. I look gorgeous. I never thought I would say that about myself. I even love the body parts that I used to hate.
Thank you so much! You made me feel so comfortable and your great work has really helped my relationship – we have begun to appreciate each other again like we used to in the beginning. It’s absolutely fantastic!

With love,
Sarah






Julia, 42, Business Owner (Mother of 5), United Kingdom



I wanted to give my husband a birthday present. My niece had done a shoot with Stiletto and the results were fantastic. It took a lot of courage to get in front of the camera, but Mark and Kristin made me feel so comfortable and helped me with everything.

When I came back for my viewing, I could not believe my eyes. That stunning and sexy lady was actually ME! I was so happy with the pictures I actually cried!
I had never looked at myself with such love and admiration until I saw myself in those pictures. It is the best present I have ever given myself. Thank you so much, you have changed the way I look at myself. I had the time of my life and will be forever grateful for it!

With lots of love,
Julia





Joanna, 32, Midwife (Mother of 1), Luxembourg


I always fancied being the model in front of the camera – but it’s just something I’d never had the opportunity to experience. Wow, what fun! Had a great shoot, experimenting with lots of outfits and poses and it so improved my confidence. I never expected the photos to be quite so spectacular and completely fell in love with them!
Not only did I show all my friends, but I came back for another shoot 3 months later!!
Thank you Stiletto, you have given me a gift I couldn’t possibly replace.
