Absolutely fantastic long awaited shoot with Julio. To say he is a gent really is an understatement. Pre comms were sharp, to the point and fuss free.
Julio was very friendly from the off. We chatted non stop. I could literally chat to him all day. So easy to get along with.
You really are a diamond. I can’t wait for our next shoot

Had my first shoot with Julio, it was his first time shooting away! I'm glad we could make it a great experience.
His pre communication was great, I knew exactly what we wanted to shoot and I felt very comfortable throughout the whole shoot!
Julio is a great guy & we got some amazing results from the sunny beach shoot!
Definitely recommended.

I did a street style shoot in Manchester City Centre with Julio, it was one of my first shoots in a while so I was a little nervous but Julio made me feel really comfortable. The communication leading up to the shoot was excellent, Julio gave me some great tips and managed to capture some great shots. Hes an excellent photographer and one of the nicest, most genuine people I've met in a long time, would highly recommend.

I worked with Julio for the first time and we created some lovely images! His vision was clear before the shoot on what he wanted to create, which made the whole process easier for me.
Four hours flew by and Julio was a pleasure to work with! Very respectful of my levels and easy to communicate with. Couldn’t recommend enough and I look forward to another shoot again!
Thanks again Julio! βΊοΈ

Had a shoot with Julio today at rainbow studios. He arrived early, was very polite and kind made me feel welcome.
He came up with loads of photo ideas like a pro, we had a good laugh and reviewed the photos we liked and deleted the ones we didn’t. Due to myself being new to the modelling industry he made me feel very comfortable and I was happy to be there! I would 100% recommend him to anybody and hopefully look forward to working again in the future. Thank you Julio.

I had a shoot with Julio today at Millwood photography studio. Communications prior to the shoot were great and he recommended many ideas of certain outfits to bring with me. Julio was already at the studio when I arrived, was very welcoming and had everything already set up and ready to go. The shoot flew by and photos achieved were great! Julio gave plenty of guidance where needed, was very professional and went through all the photos with me during the shoot deleting any I didn’t feel content with. Would highly recommend to any model wanting to achieve amazing images.. brilliant professional photographer with a relaxed vibe and I had a fab time shooting with him. Thank you Julio!

The atmosphere was very relaxed and this was reflected in the images being achieved
Really enjoyed the time with Julio at the Studio and happy to welcome Julio back to the Studio at anytime

A great photographer, Julio automatically puts you at ease. He's got great ideas and always lets you have your own input. Only photographer I've ever worked with that allows you to delete the pics you don't like! Although he rarely takes poor ones. A pleasure to work with, you'll definitely get pictures you want to use. Would be more than happy to work with him again.

Well what can I say? Julio is not only one of loveliest photographers but one of the loveliest human beings I have met!
I felt instantly comfortable and in good company the minute I met him, he's polite, friendly and very down to earth.
Shooting with him was a pleasure - nice relaxed shooting style and some really cool ideas.
The images I saw on the back of camera looked great.
Recommended to amateurs and professionals alike.

I had a shoot with Julio on the 12th August & I have to say he is one of the most warm & welcominging guys I have ever met. He was there on time waiting for me to arrive & was brilliant with communication, messaging me to let me know where he was etc.
He even bought me a coffee which which was a lovely touch.
The shoot went without a hitch, he was so calm. collective & very professional. He made me feel so at ease with every shot that we did & within minutes I was fine. The images I received I absolutely loved & I received them within hours of the shoot which again I couldn't fault him for, he was brilliant.
Such a eye for detail & imagination for every image we shot, he also took into consideration any points or ideas & I had and we tried every single one of them.
Such a decent, down to earth guy who I would highly recommend to anyone, don't even think about it, just do it !!!
Fantastic day with a 10/10 from me & I hope to shoot with him again soon
Thank you again ππ½

I had my first test shoot with Julio earlier this summer and could not have had a better introduction to modelling. Julio was fantastic to work with and the whole shoot felt like a collaboration which is something very important to me. We started off by having a coffee and talking about our experience and what we wanted from the shoot and I felt totally at ease straight away. As I was not very experienced he was more than willing to offer advice which was tremendously helpful and I was delighted with the finished images. Thank you Julio for your time, expertise and good humour - the whole session was great fun and I would love to work together again! 100% recommend.

I had my first photoshoot with Julio last week in Manchester. He was already waiting at the meeting point which was great as I knew I was in the correct place! Communication before the Photoshoot was excellent, and he sent me over a few clothing ideas. He talked me through what sort of shoots we would be doing and made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. He also bought me a cup of tea which was a bonus!
Throughout the shoot, after a numerous amount of photos were taken at each location, Julio would show me the photos and allowed me to delete any I wasn't 100% sure about. The images turned out better than I expected and he made sure I received the images within 2-3 days as promised.
A highly recommended photographer.
Thank you again Julio!

Julio attended an evening shoot at Salford Quays last night, where I was booked to model.
He arrived on time and I found him really easy to get along and very easy to work with.
His pre-shoot communications were great, he messaged me originally after seeing my casting call and sent quick replies thereafter.
His attendance was a great bonus to the group and I certainly hope to shoot with him again in the future.
I would definitely recommend him to any model. Thanks again.

It was my first time in Manchester and my first time working with Julio, Pre comms where great he let me know what kind of outfits I would need and what we would be shooting.
Julio is a really friendly guy, conversation flows easily so there where no awkward silent moments which is good. He encouraged me throughout the shoot and gave me really good direction. He knew what he wanted to achieve but allowed me to put my own stamp on it.
Would happily recommend Julio to anyone and would defiantly work with him again
Thanks .... Bobbi Castle.

Had the pleasure of working with Julio on Stephen Perry's workshop. He was an absolutely lovely man, friendly, easy to get on with, polite and respectful. He was very keen to learn and took some great pics throughout the day. Even before meeting Julio, we have been friends on facebook etc for a while, he is always lovely and was just as I expected in person.Highly recommended
Thanks a million Zara .

I had the pleasure of meeting Julio at a workshop of mine in Manchester with Zara Watson modelling. Julio is an absolute pleasure to work with. He is respectful and showed he has a lot of creative initiative. He wanted to push his talents further and did create great images. I would recommend Julio to models to work with him. He might still be learning but he is learning fast because he is passionate about the art of photography. I hope I get to meet and work with him again.

Julio is without a doubt the nicest, most polite and respectful photographer I've ever worked with! He made sure I was okay, carried my suitcase upstairs and back down from the studio. Was an absolute gent, gave me little direction as well as allowing me to freestyle and do my own thing whilst capturing. Love to work with him again.

I shot with Julio today at a workshop held by Matthew Maddock, Julio arrived on time with his kit ready. He was very polite throughout the shoot and worked hard and was attentive to the workshop. Julio wasn't afraid to try different angles and was a pleasure to work with. I would recommend him.
