Justine is a fantastic photographer. She took natural and relaxed headshots of our whole team at Red Setter. I'm not a fan of having my photo taken but she made it a fun experience with lots of laughs!

We recently worked with Justine for a campaign photoshoot featuring our customers. Justine was absolutely brilliant - quickly putting the customers at ease (none were used to being in front of a camera) and helping the whole shoot to run smoothly. She was organised, had great ideas, was happy to creative direct but also to take direction. Justine was a complete pleasure to work with and we could not be happier with the photos. I couldn't recommend her more highly.

Justine is a fantastic photographer and creative director. We loved working with her on our recent customer shoot 'D&B Body Stories' where Justine was brilliant at putting customers at ease in front of the camera. Shooting outside on a fresh January morning Justine was easy to work with and the results are fantastic - we absolutely love the images. Could not recommend more highly!

My experience with Justine has been utterly amazing. Since our first initial call, I felt so confident that Justine would do an amazing job. On the day, I was a little nervous however Justine made me feel so welcome and I instantly relaxed. I am SO happy with the images Justine took for my first ever brand photoshoot. Her direction, help, guidance and skills are fantastic and I have been recommending her to everyone. Don't hesitate to book!

Justine took some branding and marketing images for my new business. She is empathetic, calm and exceptionally visually tuned-in and manages to capture soul, feeling and your message into the images she creates. She also has lots of ideas on how best to promote your business - all in all, a very talented lady.
