Brief reviews ...
"I first went to Rosie because she was local and her portfolio looked very good.
I've stayed with her because she takes very good pictures but, more than that,
through all the sessions there runs a clear similarity so the pictures must look like me too.
Consistently good pictures.
What more can you ask?"

"After being recommended by my friend Steve Huison (formally Eddie Windass in Coronation Street) on Twitter, I travelled 200 miles to be greeted with a warm reception and a very relaxed atmosphere.
I was pleased with the results, having had some really good feedback."
"This was my 1st headshot shoot, and it was great.
Rosie really made me feel relaxed, and I'm very happy with the results.
She captured different aspects of my personality, showing a wide casting range, while ensuring that each image was true to who I am. I plan to continue with her and recommend her."
"Rosie is very friendly and puts you at ease from the moment you walk into the session.
She is very professional and captures shots that are always of a high quality.
For anyone looking to get their first or renewed headshots I would highly recommend Rosie!"
"Rosie is an absolute joy to work with.
She makes you feel relaxed and at ease, which makes the photos that much better.
This is my 4th session with her so far, so I guess that is recommendation enough."
"Rosie is fantastic.
She takes loads of photos, and as I have trouble choosing which ones I want she helps me with that as well.
I highly recommend her. She knows what she's doing, is professional and a good laugh to boot!"
(Annie has had 3 sessions in my studio so far)
"When I update my photographs I'll go back to Rosie Still - a recommendation in itself.
She is cheerful, funny, puts me at my ease and is pretty damned good at the job.
She is also very prompt in producing the work, something for which I am extremely grateful.
Thank you Rosie, you're a genius." (This picture is from Jessica's 2nd session with me)
"Working with Rosie was really lovely. She made me feel completely relaxed and really at ease.
Her years of professionalism just made it an absolute breeze when she's taking photos of you.
The whole session felt very easy and effortless and the results were amazing.
Thanks again Rosie"
"I really enjoyed working with Rosie.
She immediately made me feel comfortable. She works with you as opposed to just telling you what do.
She's fun and entertaining but also gets the job done!
My smiles were real smiles."
"Rosie is a really good photographer.
Very friendly and was made to feel at ease very quickly.
She's very professional and I'm delighted with the accurate photos produced, so I actually look like my photos, which is all important.
I really enjoyed the photo session."
"This was my 2nd photo shoot with Rosie. Her ability to create exquisite photography clearly demonstrates her naturally experienced talent behind the camera.
The sessions were relaxed and fun.
If you’re looking for a photographer that can really bring out the best in you, look no further."
I had a session with Rosie and was delighted with the outcome. She makes you so comfortable in the studio and goes the extra mile to make sure you're happy with your photos, giving a professional but personal touch to your session. I definitely recommend Rosie to all people who work in the performing arts.
"Rosie is an absolute joy to work with.
This was my second shoot with Rosie, which is a testament to her skill as a photographer
and the enthusiasm she brings to her work.
She is so welcoming, fun, and you can be assured high quality photos every time!"

"To go for a 'mug shot' session with Rosie Still is to gain a new and enchanting friend.
You could not wish to be put more at your ease, which is so important for good, relaxed, natural shots.
Both I and my agent were delighted with the results of the session.
No actor or musician could wish to be captured by such a keen, experienced eye -
nor to have such a good time getting the shots in the can."
"Rosie always makes you feel comfortable and relaxed.
She always takes a perfect picture, which is why I’ve been back to her studio at least 7 times.
Your photo is what sells you first. I’ve got plenty of work out of my photos, and that’s why I will always come back again."
(This was either the 7th or 8th session that Michael and I have done together in my studio so far ... I've already lost count. But I'm looking forward to the next one!)
"Rosie's a fantastic photographer.
I've had several photo sessions with her and after the most recent one I sent a selection of them to my new agent who was also delighted and immediately asked who the photographer was so she could recommend her.
Not only are her photos great but every session is always friendly and relaxed. Highly recommended!"
(To date I've done 5 sessions with Ollie, including 2 hand modelling sessions - see

"I found Rosie on Google when I needed a photographer to take pictures of a friend's artwork.
I was so pleased with her work that when I needed some head shots for myself, Rosie was the obvious choice for me.
In spite of the fact that I hate having my photo taken I'm really happy with the results and would recommend her to anybody wanting a professional and enjoyable photo session."
"I met Rosie on a commercial photo shoot over 30 years ago and have been using her as a photographer ever since.
I could say all sorts of wonderful things about her photo sessions, about how she puts people at ease, makes the whole experience enjoyable and uplifting, takes fabulous pictures ... or I could just sum it all up in one sentence. Our life long friendship shows how highly I value Rosie as a person and as for her pictures - they speak for themselves."
"I think Rosie is a wonderful photographer who really cares about her work.
I didn’t consider her as just a photographer; it was more like she was family.
She’s a true professional. Her photos are amazing and I strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking for pictures.
You get good photographers. However, you don’t get passion as well as quality. But with Rosie, you get both.
I only have one regret - I wish I’d met her earlier."
"Rosie was an absolute joy to work with. It was the best photo session I have ever had in my somewhat long career, and that includes previous professional photo shoots. My experience with her stands way above them.
Working with Rosie didn't feel like work.
She allows plenty of time for your session, so you don't feel any pressure of being hurried. I can only say Rosie is the best. I wish there were more like her but there aren't. That is what makes her so unique."
... and longer
I met Rosie in the early 1990s when I decided to have some professional photographs done to promote myself as a solo singer after various bands falling apart. It was an emotional time, and Rosie's work inspired me to move on, be brave, and keep the momentum going. Later in life, to be exact, 30 years later, another band I was in fell apart, and so I knew she was my go-to professional photographer. It was a special session, and I highly recommend Rosie's work to anyone who would like their presence on this planet to be captured for whatever reason that you may choose. Thank you, Rosie, xBx
It took ages to decide who to trust with the headshots. Rosie’s a professional who truly cared about her craft and the fellow creatives she presents in her work. That matters to me. It's a joyful thing to work with someone who is exemplary in their field and personable in their manner - it always brings wonderful outcomes.Time at Rosie's surpassed my hopes. The photographs were magnificent; the very favourable attention they have attracted has more than justified my decision. I'm glad I took time over my choice. I couldn't have made a better one.
"I needed a photographer to take some good quality photos for my charity calendar and had no hesitation in asking Rosie. She'd taken headshots of my daughters during their acting/dance years and we had struck up a good friendship.
I dressed up as 12 different celebrities, including Phil Mitchell, Uncle Fester, Matt Lucas, etc. We had a fun day laughing and giggling throughout. The calendar was designed and printed professionally and all profits went to Breast Cancer Care."

"Rosie really is very good - quite possibly the best I have worked with. She puts you immediately at ease.
The photos are bright crisp and clear and give an accurate portrayal of the subject matter for casting purposes. Rosie has a particular talent of helping you to look at your best, whilst still producing professional shots that actually look like the actor who walks in for the casting!
I would recommend every actor use Rosie. Her rates are also very reasonable, belying her talent and expertise."
"A fantastic first photo-shoot experience, created by Rosie's easy going, friendly manner.
Her wonderful personality immediately sets you at ease which allows you to relax and bring to your photographs exactly what you hoped for. Her patience, sense of humour and her professional knowhow create an atmosphere where you can quickly get used to the experience and what's expected from you.
Will most definitely return to Rosie for future professional photos, and am very pleased with how the first batch turned out and how they look on my acting profiles."
"Rosie has been the best photographer I have ever worked with. She made me feel extremely comfortable which enabled me to relax in front of the camera to achieve the best shots.
Her professionalism is second to none and her honesty and advice has been invaluable. Rosie makes you feel completely at ease as if you were a long term friend yet she is also direct and tells you what works and what doesn't.
I'm really pleased with my photos and can't wait to start using them in my portfolio"
"I had the pleasure of having my headshots taken by Rosie. She has a very welcoming and chilled attitude, making me feel at ease and relaxed throughout.
I was so happy with how my photos had turned out. My only problem now is that there are so many good ones.
You can’t go wrong with choosing Rosie. You will be in extremely good hands of a talented photographer with years of experience and a wonderful smile and good natured spirit. I’m definitely going back for all my photos. Thank you Rosie."
"Rosie is a down to earth person who is professional and lovely at the same time.
The session itself was very enjoyable, also Rosie's knowledge of the industry let her capture the best possible photos suited to you. I was so happy with how my photos had turned out. My only problem - there are so many good ones.
You can’t go wrong with choosing Rosie. You will be in extremely good hands of a talented photographer with years of experience and a wonderful smile and good natured spirit. I’m definitely going back for all my photos. Thank you Rosie."
"Rosie is a lovely person and an amazing photographer with so much experience. She instantly makes you feel relaxed and at ease in her studio. I received such a warm welcome with a serene smile and a cup of tea.
She has a genuine talent of grasping the best in people and making it shine in their photos. As she says, it's all about capturing the sparkle in people's eyes. Maybe that's why the photos she takes are so special.
I would definitely recommend Rosie to anyone into acting, student or professional."
