Some recent references…

I had the great pleasure of working with Carla on Tuesday at her home. It was a great shoot and one that I will remember. She is very Professional, hard working, friendly, approachable and is very patient. I had numerous ideas and I honestly thought I would only be able to cover half of what I wanted to achieve, how wrong was I, not only did I get through all of my ideas we managed to achieve more.

One of the things that impressed me the most was her engagement, we talked through shoots, and what I wanted to achieve and she not only nailed it, she exceeded all of my expectations.

Her home location is great to work in, not only does she have the room, she has a variety of backdrops that can be used inside and outside. I would also point out, although we didn’t explore fully, there are great outdoor locations very near the home to shoot at. So if you get the opportunity to work with Carla at her home location I would strongly recommend you do so and make the most of the outdoors.

I definitely want to work with Carla again and I would strongly recommend Carla to fellow photographers. She has a great look, great personality and above all wants to work with you to get the shot you are after.

Don’t delay get your shoot booked.

Possible the best shoot I have ever done , Carla is a absolute dream to photograph … Not only stunningly beautiful but a joy to work with. Taking direction very easily and then working hard to give the photographer the chance to capture a sensational image.

An absolute joy and pleasure to photography .

Thank you so much again for a fantastic shoot …. Looking forward to shooting again with you very soon.

Quite possibly the best model I have had the pleasure of working with. Spending the day in the studio with Carla was fun, creative and the images are by far, some of my best work. I cannot recommend her enough and I hope to get the chance to work with her again. Thanks

What can be said about the very beautiful Carla that hasn’t already?

I had the pleasure of working with her yesterday, she is without doubt one of the best models out there at the moment.

Stunning good looks, professional, friendly and helpful.

Carla poses effortlessly, creating the most wonderful shapes. She works so well without direction yet instantly understands any ideas or instruction given.

She is an absolute delight to be around and work with, great fun and the time just flies by.

I can not recommend Carla highly enough, if you only ever shoot one more model – make it this one

Thank you so much for a great and truly enjoyable shoot and I look forward to working with you again.

I worked with Carla at a studio day held at Pavilion Studio in Livingston at the end of Nov 2014. As a relative newbie I was nervous of working with Carla but she was very approachable and happy to work with me to generate some high quality shots. I would recommend Carla as she is the best model that I have worked with and would be looking to work with her again in the near future. The only problem is in cutting down the number of shots at editing stage as I had so many keepers at the end of the shoot.

Professionalism, patience, friendliness, skill, adaptability, style, communication, understanding, not to mention looks – it’s all there and it makes Carla a real pleasure to work with.

I think Carla is an outstanding natural beauty……………..a stunning model. She posed for me effortlessly, moving with astonishing grace of posture. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her. I am so pleased with the results of the session. I am so looking forward to working with Carla again. Wow!

I finally shot with this amazing lady this weekend. It was the perfect shoot, Carla went with my ideas and provided her own as well. I got every thing that I wanted from the shoot and had time to try some new things too.

Carla is enthusiastic, professional, chatty, easy to shoot and very motivated. I am buzzing. I cannot recommend her enough and will without a doubt shoot again, if she wants Wink

Thank you Carla for what is one of my most favourite shoots with some of my most favourite images.

Had a great two day location shoot with Carla. She is a thoroughly professional and hard working model, poses very well, great fun to work with, and we produced some excellent images.

She has an excellent figure and looks for my style of work, and I would have no hesitation in recommending her, and hope to work with her in the future.

Well I honestly don’t know were to start.

Carla was in a league of her own this weekend . She is the first Fully Professional model I have shot and the images clearly speak for there self !! I really enjoyed working with her and will without a doubt will shoot her again any time!! I would happily recommend Carla to any photographer. Carla just goes with the flow but at the same time dominates her role and created any pose i requested. Good work Carla !!! See you again soon !!

Dave

hat can I day other than Carla is truly fabulous model to shoot and such a lovely lady.

Id shoot with her every day if I could.

I’m sure Carla and I will shoot again and create some beautiful energy and images together to match that energy.

If you have not shot Carla already, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR.

What can I say that hasn’t been said already, all previous references are consistent and highly accurate. I shot with Carla recently and she proved to be the consummate professional model. She arrived at the studio on time with her hair and makeup prepared to a very high standard and poses beautifully without any direction. Carla is lovely, talkative and very easy to get on with, two hours went very quickly and I was extremely pleased with the images that we produced. Very highly recommended.

I managed to grab a last minute place with Carla at the Studio Hire Plymouth Studio day

I’m so pleased, and hey, guys, I got to shoot with Carla Monaco !!

The shoot was easy with her skills, and nobody needs me to say how good and professional she is.

Thanks Carla, looking forward to the summer and more time !!

Had a great shoot with Carla yesterday, very versatile and easy to work with, she worked hard to make my ideas a reality and achieved some excellent poses and looks. Carla is friendly and fun and can create interesting poses and shapes, I look forward to working with her again.

Barbara & Malcolm

Had the great pleasure with working with Carla yesterday, she is a model that excels in every factor of professionalism, working with such a model of high standards and grace, allows the photographer just to focus on lighting and exposure, she is full of energy, she really has a good understanding of the lights around her. She will pose, wait then repose allowing time to shoot, from smallest detail she is aware and tuned with everything, she is a sheer pleasure to work with providing inspiration and delivering the all-important pose’s and expressions, this model does not need a recommendation her work talks volume. And look forward to working with her soon as possible again. Thank you Carla for a great shoot.

I loved working with Carla on the other side of the camera. I find her very inspirational and love her work so just to get advice and guidance was great. I had a great day and we made some amazing images thank you carla

Worked with Carla on a group shoot she is an amazing model and a really nice person as well. Is able to do any style with ease and makes posing look easy. Has a wide varity of outfits and looks amazing in them all, I cannot reccomend Carla highly enough working with her is a pleasure and I look forward to our next shoot.

Had the true pleasure Of attending a model day with Carla last Sunday, she is a stunning model who’s look lends itself to all types of modelling.

Carla was happy to work with direction and equally happy posing beautifully for images. I cannot recommend Carla enough, I look forward to working with Carla again

Carla is very hard working, a good communicator and I would recommend anyone who gets the chance to shoot with her jump at the chance!

Second time I’ve worked with Carla, she is simply stunning and a pleasure to work with. Carla has a great attitude and personality and we always have good laugh during the shoot. 🙂

I’ve been wanting to work with Carla for quite a while now, her photos are of a very high standard, so when there was an opportunity to shoot her in Liverpool last week I jumped at the chance. We shot on location in the morning and went to the studio in the afternoon.

Carla is great at posing and is a pleasure to work with, there was a constant flow of ideas and discussion. Before the shoot we had exchanged messages discussing what we were going to photograph.

Carla is a lovely person and a fantastic model with a great appreciation for the art of photography, it was a pleasure working with her and I can’t recommend her enough. Looking forward to the next shoot.

As you can see from Carla’s images in her portfolio, she is a stunningly beautiful model and her beauty shines in front of the camera.

Carla is a delight to work with, she is happy taking direction and is happy to do her thing as well, Carla is full of ideas, Carla makes a photographers job such a joy and it would be impossible to take a bad picture, she makes it so easy for photographers.

I now have 300 images and I need to short list a few for my portfolio, when you do shoot with Carla, you will see what a challenge short listing images really is.

I cannot recommend Carla enough, I would love to shoot with Carla again.

Carla is 100% reliable, hard working and a good communicator.

Thank you Carla for a great shoot, I loved every minute, I hope we shoot again sometime.

Enjoyed a second shoot with Carla recently. Her beauty and modelling skills are lauded here – and if you don’t believe well over two hundred glowing references I’m not likely to sway you really Smile

This shoot we tried some slightly experimental lighting setups – some more successful than others – but besides looking beautiful and creating all sorts of awesome shapes, Carla was patient (with me …) encouraging, and ‘involved’.

A real “supermodel” !!!

¡¡¡ Book Now !!!

I met Carla at a workshop held by Stefano Bruciano and Adrian Crooks. Carla is an amazing model to work with who requires the minimal of direction leaving you to just shoot away.

Always polite, attentive and easy to get along with and open to trying new ideas and able to put forth her own too.

It’s hard to take a bad picture of Carla!

I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again and hope so in the future.

My first shoot with Carla and been wanting to shoot with her for quite a while now, we had a group shoot at Adrian Pini Studio’s and got some great images. After following Carla’s work for sometime now and the high quality she always produces, I was not disappointed with what a fantastic model she is. A fun and professional and very easy going, and put up with us all and outside on a cold damp night too. Looking forward to hopefully shooting with Carla again in the near future.

Very highly recommend

Thank you Alan,

Our first studio shoot today, following a home shoot back in the summer.

The shoot was easy to arrange and pre-shoot communications were very good. Carla arrived in good time, with two large bags containing some lovely clothes and just about ready to shoot. We tried a variety of outfits and styles and Carla looked great in all of them.

Carla is very professional and very easy to work with and we got some great images.

Highly recommended

Look at the portfolio and look at the references and what can I add ?

Well… I think Carla looks brilliant, and has pretty much the ideal physique for my kind of photography; I’d wanted to shoot with he for quite some time and an opportunity presented itself to work with her at eye for an image today. The worry with a top model is you build up unrealistic expectations of them but Carla surpassed all mine. Combine that look with a natural instinct for the perfect thing to do in front of the camera and a charming and professional demeanour and the result is so many good photos I don’t know where to begin and a model who goes straight on “must work with again” list.

I’ve worked with some superb models this year, and it would be unfair to say “so and so is the best” but Carla is without doubt one of them.

I had a wonderful morning with Carla.

Carla is a dream to work with.

She put up with all my props and was a great professional. Added to that, she is fun to work with.

The images we did look great.

I will be working with her again.

Loved working with Carla she has a rare beauty that is complimented by her lovely personality & sense of humour. Looking forward to many more fab shoots. Highly recommended.

What can I say about Carla, worked with Carla on quite a few shots now not only is she a stunning looking model but a really nice person too. 100% professional and a must to work with. Smile

I worked with the wonderful Carla recently in a studio shoot and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I can only repeat all the compliments others have mentioned, and she is one of the

very best you can spend your time shooting with.

Thank you Carla!

Great shoot with Carla at her place yesterday. Very professional but relaxed in all aspects of the shoot. Great wardrobe and styling in line with our discussions and posed effortlessly through the time. Managed to shoot both indoor and outdoor which in November is a real bonus. Would definitely recommend Carla to anyone and expect to shoot again with her sometime soon.

Carla was the model on a workshop I attended and she was absolutely brilliant. When trying to direct her she was very quick to get the idea and to run with it but at the same time she was just as able to keep the poses coming without direction too. I found her friendly, approachable and professional and would not hesitate to recommend her or to work with her again.

I had the pleasure and honour of working with this great model yesterday. This was my second shoot with Carla, I have another booked in a months time then again later in December and I’ve asked her to find me a slot in her diary as soon as possible in the New Year. Yes fellow togs she is that good!

First thing to say about Carla is that she is wonderfully relaxed and despite her obvious experience with professional commercial, she is not in anyway patronising with those of us who are amateurs and of lesser experience. I have learnt so much working with her. Yet when asked she took direction from me and then was able to suggest ways of modifying or taking it further.

Both pre-shoot and during the day dhe was always interested and attentive to what I was trying to achieve and did everything she could to make sure a got it, the couple of sixties themes we did Carla were terrific, transported me back to my teens. The girl is stunningly beautiful with an adorable personality. Quire simply the most enjoyable and rewarding day I’ve had as a photographer, thank you Carla.

What more can I say, If like me you are an amateur/hobbyist but nevertheless take your hobby seriously, enthusiastic and passionate about your photography and the quality of the images you produce then do yourself a favour and work with this beautiful girl at least once, you won’t regret it, and like me you’ll almost certainly be back for more.

I had the greatest of pleasures in having a shoot with this young lady recently at Slogical Studios,Carla is one of the nicest models I have met,and is uterley proffesional in her attitude towards the photographer,giving pose after pose after pose.Carla needs no direction whatsoever,after a few minutes chat with me telling her what I envisaged,she was in the zone,and we were off,its a pity I only had an hour on this occasion,on the next , it certainly won’t be!.I have no hesitation in recommending,this fantastic young lady,she is an asset to any photographers portfollio,thanks again, Carla,

Where to begin? I booked Carla for a studio day and of course took an hour for myself. That has to be one of the best decisions I’ve made as Carla is one of the most professional and versatile models I’ve had the sincere pleasure of working with.

An absolute delight throughout the day with every photographer, including myself, being extremely happy with the results.

Very highly recommended!

I had the opportunity to shoot with Carla today and what a great shoot.

It’s difficult to write a write up on perfection but here goes

Carla is stunning, so down to earth, professional, has lots of poses, great selection of outfits and she managed to express my ideas/feelings into the images from limited direction.

I will definitely attend/setup another shoot with Carla.

had the pleasure of shooting with Carla a few months ago at John Barones studio in Wolverhampton on her studio day weekend. Carla is a young beautiful model who intuitively posed exactly the way I wanted… In fact even better than that, she has loads of poses which she does effortlessly. I did occasionally suggest an idea which she understood straight away and was ‘into it’.

Carla suggested outfits that she could wear which worked well with what I was looking for a first shoot. I would also say a ‘thank you’ to John Barone who made suggestions which altogether with Carla provided me with fantastic images… I’ve yet to go through and post more.

I’d highly recommend Carla for all photographers… Once again, thank you Carla.

I was lucky enough to work with Carla on a Yerbury workshop a few months back.

Carla is an experienced model, which is clear when you get to meet and shoot with her. She knows her angles and has a fantastic range of poses. From following Carla’s work I know that she has a versatility to work well in a lot of different shooting styles fine art, fashion etc.

During the day itself I witnessed Carla working with photographers of a variety of different levels and was always professional, helpful and ensured that they got exceptional results.

Although personally I’m not normally the biggest fan of workshops due to the reduced one to one time with models unlike arranging your own shoot, I left the day with the mental note to make sure I arranged a shoot with Carla again in the near future. Also as a side note for photographers, I could also wholeheartedly recommend the Yerbury workshops which are excellent, and one of the best I’ve been on.

Carla came back to JFYP Studio following a studio day last year and this year filled a whole weekend. Working with Carla is a delight. Down to earth, friendly,professional, I could go on but no, book her for a shoot and find out for yourself. You will not be disappointed. Hope we see you back at the studio again in the not too distant future.

Shot 5 months ago

My second shoot with the Stunning and Talented Carla.

not only is Carla professional she has a wicked sense of humour and endless array of poses.

Carla seemed to pre-empt my suggested pose and create it effortlessly and then some.

A real pleasure to work with, will not be my last time by a long way.

This young lady is a real talent, extremely beautiful and should have a place in everyone’s portfolio

Highly recommended

Thank you Carla

I had the chance to do a group shoot with Carla as part of a weekend in Wales. We had only two hours but she adapted so well and so instinctively to our suggestions and the pictures I got were truly stunning. As well as possessing an astonishing natural beauty and sense of grace, Carla was able to interpret the suggestions of our group of photographers, even when we weren’t especially experienced. She also approached everything we tried with a can-do attitude that was both professional and fun. I would highly recommend working with Carla and I hope one day to have the chance / privilege of working with her again.

Shot 6 months ago

Starting to lose track of how many times I have worked with Carla and I am sure that I will continue to work with her. Stunning model in every respect and always a pleasure to work with and photograph. My highest recommendation……but you don’t need me to tell you that. The consummate model!

I had wanted to work with Carla for a long while now and when the opportunity of a group shoot came up, I jumped at it. I am certainly glad I did. Carla is an exceptional model and her experience, ability and professionalism are exemplary. She naturally knows how to pose in the given situation and worked hard to get the shot. Another bonus is, she takes very little editing! I am very happy with the results of our shoot, the only issue I have is I have so many shots, she may just take over a large chunk of my port.

I really hope to work with her again, I suggest you book her immediately!

It was an absolute privilege shooting Carla today. She is a truly outstanding model. Gorgeous and a lovely person to boot. Her professionalism is plain to see. Her posing was effortless and she seemed to know exactly what pose I was looking for even before I finished describing it to her.

I hope to work with Carla again soon.

Second time I worked with Carla at one of Paul’s events, this time in Wales. Obviously she has a great look, but she’s also really easy to work with. Very patient and happy to share her thoughts and ideas.

I worked with Carla for the first time at a weekend event in Wales recently organised by Pauls studio.

Pre shoot comms were excellent. Our group was allocated half a day to shoot with her, it was a real pleasure working with her and her poses were so natural and beautiful. She was very chatty and we got on really well. Hope to have the opportunity to shoot with her again soon at her home.

Highly recommended

Thanks

Having shot with Carla at her Kemble base in May it was a pleasure to be able to invite Carla to West Wales this week and our second shoot was everything I’d hoped it would be. It was a full day shoot which meant a very early start but Carla worked effortlessly all day and was as fresh at the end of the day as she was first thing in the morning. She’s a great model to work with and I doubt she could take a bad photo. I’m already thinking of what I’d like to achieve on our next shoot! Thanks again Carla

I had a great shoot with Carla this week, moving from castle to beach to castle around West Wales. From her prior work I was hoping for some great images, and she didn’t disappoint. Carla brought a great selection of outfits and posed effortlessly throughout the day, dodging rain, mud and waves without complaint, making for a very professional and easygoing shoot. She’s a classy model – but you knew that already. I’d better get saving for shoot No.2……..

I had the pleasure of welcoming Carla to the ManCave today. Carla has been on my ‘must book’ list for quite some time. She has an awesome portfolio of work demonstrating her talents and natural beauty. She didn’t disappoint, A natural model with oodles of talent. Add to that she’s a really nice girl to work and gel with during a session, no awkward moments. I really can’t recommend Carla highly enough. She really does do what it says on the tin. She now on my ‘must book again list’. Cheers C..

What an absolutely wonderful lady to work with, I had the pleasure of a shoot with Carla at Barlow Studio and like other photographers it is so difficult to find new things to say as all the superlatives have been used to praise this great model. Brilliant looks and a super personality provided a collection of images that I am proud to have taken.

Of course she is fully recommended. The only problem may be getting a slot in what must be a very full diary.

Thank you Carla

I just knew this would be an enjoyable first shoot with Carl but I was not prepared for just how good this model is. I now have a major problem in deciding which images to use as just about every shot that I took is a keeper! I have never had such a high proportion of stunning images from a single shoot.

Carla is so easy to work with, she just oozes class, I simply cannot recommend her highly enough.

What can I say about this young lady that hasn’t been said already? I have photographed Carla on several occasions and have never ceased to be amazed by her beauty, very hard work, reliability and pleasant manner. She is just outstanding. If you haven’t worked with her yet, do it! Just too good to miss.

Hopefully our next shoot won’t be so short, as I had am amazing half hour with Carla at a studio day in wolverhampton. We had a brief chat about the ‘look’ I wanted to achieve and instantly Carla had sorted out the clothing and then went on to produce the most amazing poses. I could be happier with the images. Thanks again Carla . I will be looking out for more studio days and group shoots with you.

Had a great shoot with Carla on her studio day at John Barones. We got some fantastic results. Was my third shoot with Carla and can’t wait to come back for more. Thanks Carla. Smile

Had a 3 day shoot with Carla in Devon !! She is a stunning young model, and can create amazing shapes and looks that I was looking for. She is an ideal person who you can direct and will achieve the image you are looking for. She is a lovely person to work with, full of enthusiasm and one of the best models I have worked with. Thanks Carla for an amazing time – and I hope we can arrange another shoot again – Brian

had a really enjoyable and productive shoot with Carla at Ariane, Tamworth.

Her pre-shoot communication was excellent and she arrived with just what I’d asked for.

She understood what I wanted to achieve and worked with me to get the desired results.

I found Carla to be very warm and approachable throughout the process, to have a great range of appropriate expressions and poses and a knack for finding the light.

I am very pleased with the images we created and look forward to working with Carla again.

I attended Paul’s Wales Weekend event and worked with Carla Monaco for the second time this year.

After my first shoot with Carla I was certain that we would have some great captures and for this shoot we focused on a wedding theme and some classic Art Nude images.

As with the previous shoot I only gave Carla general directions so that I could focus on the overall composition of the scene and based on the results I am really happy with our time working together.

Great shoot and look forward to more shoots with Carla in the future.

I felt put at ease the moment Carla answered the front door, extended her hand to me and showed me in. I found both her and her husband, as well as Stefano whom I am already acquainted with, to be very warm, friendly and very approachable people.

The ideas simply kept on coming. Once again I was extremely happy to be working in a highly conducive setting. Having worked at Stefano’s house once before, I really couldn’t wait to come back there – plus I had a dream come true working with Carla! She proved herself as an extremely hard worker, a highly versatile model as, for example, she moved from the natural look to a smokey Bardot look.

The shoot was fantastic. Looking back just a few hours later, it just didn’t seem real. We couldn’t have wished for better weather. Carla is a highly recommended model whom I really can’t wait to work with again. We have an expression in my part of South Wales which sums up the shoot – “tidy like innit?!”.

I attended a workshop organised by Jon Gray and Carla was one of our models. She is just excellent – totally professional, easy to get on with, and can strike the most beautiful poses. Has lots of ideas for poses and will listen to instruction. Highly recommended.

I look forward to working with Carla again in the future.

I have had two shoots with Carla both were superb she is as lovely a person to work with as she is to look at I can think of so many good points Carla has but I can sum her up by saying the perfect model.

Highly recommended

A lovely girl in every sense; face, figure and personality. She is one of those rare models who looks as good in the flesh as she looks in her images. As a bonus, she knows what she is doing and poses skilfully and imaginatively. Her pre-shoot communications were good. I cannot fault her and thoroughly recommend her.

I worked with Carla at the Manor House ( via Paul’s-studio) Carla is a pleasure to work with as well as a stunning model , with the the added advantage of living very close to me so I will definitely be working with her again , Carla was brilliant in her posing and interpreting what was needed , I have some images I am delighted with. Thank you again for making the afternoon a pleasure !

I wanted to work with Carla for a long time, and finally managed to arrange a shoot. She is a very friendly person, and it was a great shoot. We managed to do some different kind of shoot and modelling comes to her very easy. She is very natural at this and she can express the emotions without a problem. It was a shoot I enjoyed, and I highly recommend her. Model like Carla makes the process of making beautiful images quite straightforward (and of course with some lighting tips from Adrian Smile

Thank you both, it was great working with you.

I was very lucky to have a shoot with the fabulous Carla at her home today. Double lucky because the weather was really great and we were able to shoot in her extensive garden and grounds.

Carla as the perfect model. Her beauty is beyond compare and she is so easy to work with, Carla needs no direction and makes one feel absolutely relaxed. A genuine Liver Bird.

I thoroughly recommend Carla to you all but, already being one of PP’s topmost modes, this is superflous.

Thank you Carla for a truly memorable day. Looking forward to the next time.

Peter

I had the pleasure in working with Carla at a recent Paul’s Studio Wales weekend event.

I was working with two other photographers and Carla was very professional and friendly.

This was my first shoot with Carla and had great half day shoot trying a number of different ideas with amazing results.

I look foreword the opportunity to work with Carla and would recommend anyone to work with her.

Two shoots in three days with Carla, first shoot a couple of hours of natural light at her base and the second a half day studio shoot.

Carla is a top professional model who puts 100% into all her shoots, very highly recommended. Carla is a must shoot model and will add to any portfolio.

Thanks for a another great shoot.

I’ve been wanting to photograph Carla for such a long time and finally got my chance on Friday, when I travelled to her base in Kemble. Communication pre shoot was great with every thing confirmed etc before the day. I did get lost though 100 yards from her home as I couldn’t find it and my phone had no signal so couldn’t ring for directions, luckily Adrian spotted me out in the Cul de Sac and directed down the track to the house.

Carla is a fabulous model, down to earth, chatty and enthusiastic. It was not the best weather but Carla happily posed in a soggy meadow and made it look like it was summer Smile. She has a great range from fashion to art nude. I am very happy with the images I got from the day and would certainly recommend and work with her again

I had a lovely shoot with Carla at her current base yesterday. A warm welcome and a cup of coffee awaited me before we had a chat about what I wanted to try and achieve. We shot some indoor images with natural light which is something I’m trying to do more of as well as my usual outdoorsy stuff, both clothed and art nude, and Carla moved effortlessly from pose to pose, giving me so many wonderful images that it’ll take me a long time to edit them all! Despite her supermodel looks Carla is totally down to earth, chatty and great company and it was a pleasure to spend time with her and husband Adrian and work with her. If she needs any more recommendations I would urge both experienced and beginners to book her without hesitation. Thanks Carla and I hope to work with you again soon

Every bit as wonderful as her portfolio suggests you cannot help but take great photos of Carla very friendly we had a nice wonderfully versatile I suppose the best way to describe her would be art nude with a fashion twist I did take more fashion style nudes than I would do normally but from my perspective that is a good thing and cannot recommend her too highly grab her when you can!

How gorgeous is my friend Carla, this woman is my biggest inspiration when it comes to modelling, her personality shines as bright as her heart. I have know Carla for quiet some years now from working with her on her 1st shoot to sitting through her 1st nudes, Miss Monaco is certainly the most amazing model out there! watching her grow has been amazing she has gone from strength to strength and will continue to do so, I get excited for her images, she truly is one epic girl!!! I thank her in so many ways love this girl to bits I do!!! she shines brighter than a star she does lots of love car, you carry on your fabulosity my dear

lots of love Tori xxxxx

I worked with Carla for the first time at a recent weekend event in Wales, run by Pauls Studio. Carla is a lovely person as well as a spectacular model. She instantly put me at my ease and was happy to try a number of different moods to ensure I took away some lovely shots. A delight to work with.

I was finally able to shoot with Carla and it was well worth the wait. Her modelling skills and looks need no further introduction her portfolio speaks for itself. Not only is Carla a great model she is also a lovely person to work with. She is cheerful, and enthusiastic giving great creative input whilst also being very patient. We covered a large number of ideas during the shoot which we were able to develop and refine producing some great results. Thank you Carla

I worked with Carla and a second model together with a friend in Amsterdam. We had 2 different locations one for fashion shooting and one erotic. Carla was the full day extremely professional, concentrated and worked hard for us to bring our ideas to live. It was a real pleasure working with her and I will definitely work with her again. If you are looking for a very flexible and beautiful model for fashion as well as erotic she is the one you are looking for.

First time shoot with the lovely Carla in a location shoot in Wales, organised by Pauls-Events. Highly recommended. Carla had some great poses ( including one with a black dress and a can of Stella!). I would definitely want to work with her again, should our paths cross again – Brilliant!

Yesterday I had my first one-to-one shoot with one of the top models on PurplePort, the stunningly beautiful Carla Monaco. By the time the shoot had come around, I was on my third theme for the day and one which I hoped would stretch us both. Fortunately for me, Carla is an amazing professional and was eager to collaborate on my idea and we managed to get some really great images.

I can not recommend Carla highly enough, she is a joy to work with and will produce look after look and pose after pose. Carla is an exquisitely photogenic model who is also extremely modest and down to earth and I can’t wait to work with her again.

Thank you Carla.

I’ve longed to work with Carla for a couple of years, and finally managed it yesterday. She was worth the wait! In some ways I am glad for the delay because I’ve become more experienced, but whereas Carla is a ‘super-model’ she was anything but daunting – more ‘girl-next-door’, who chatted away happily, while delivering superb poses and expressions. Carla looks good in anything or nothing. She must be among the most beautiful and yet most natural girls on this site. I can’t wait to edit the best from a good session, and we are already thinking about a second shoot in the autumn. Having finally met with her and so much enjoyed the time together, Carla has definitely shot on to my favourites list. Highly recommended.

I had the great pleasure of a first shoot with Carla at her studio day at Upper Mills Studio. Although I only had 1 hour, Carla was excellent and great fun to work with. She had a wide range of outfits and a great professional style which made working with her and capturing images a real delight. The time spent with her was excellent and I certainly will be looking to book a second shoot.

Highly recommended.

Had my third shoot with Carla a few weeks ago. As always she was a pleasure to work with and to be around.

Carla is a true professional, great pre comms, arrives prepared and on time and you always finish a shoot with plenty of beautiful images.

I continue to recommend her and look forward to working with her again in the future.

Thank you!

I had the pleasure to work with Carla in Spain, during a three day One to One training course.

Just one thing to say, Carla is the most wonderful Model to work with, on a training course. This Lady makes it all look so easy. And a lovely person that is great fun. Working hard, having ideas is all part of the package.

Work with this Lady. You will not regret the time and have some Fantastic images.

Thank you so much

Working with Carla was a huge pleasure for me, we’ve actually known each other for a a couple of years, but had never had the opportunity to work together.

Carla is completely hands on and gets right into character, she is very expressive and gives 100% effort and commitment, she has a very positive attitude and goes out of her way to make sure the right shot is captured.

She is also extremely organised, her time keeping and communication is second to none.

I know for a fact we’ll work together again in the near future and to be honest I can’t wait!

Thanks again Carla for all your hard work and support in my work.

Would I works with Carla again – YES!

She is a lovely girl, very down to earth and her pictures don’t do her justice. Worked really hard to achieve the look I was after. Very professional and had a good range of clothing to suit what I was wanting to achieve.

I will definitely look to work with her again next time she is in Scotland.

Another great day with Carla – for the tenth time!! Always a pleasure, always professional but always fun! A wonderful attitude – can’t wait to shoot for the eleventh time!

Had a wonderful shoot with Carla at Edge Studio. Very good natured and forgiving lady especially as I forgot to pick her up from the station!! Totally Efficient and Professional. Excellent make up and selection of clothes. Have some stunning images. Thanks Carla for a great shoot. Highly Recommended!

Like many before me I was very pleased with Carla having spent a half day shoot with her last week. Her communication skills on the shoot were excellent and it was very easy working together to achieve the look and feel of the shoots that I was after. Seamlessly able to move from pose direction to directing in the same style – flawless. I would highly recommend her to others and is an excellent yardstick for the professionals.

Carla is a true professional and works with an elegance and grace that just helps to produce the most amazing photos. She worked tirelessly throughout the shoot and was always able to add her own special touch to each pose. I would definitely recommend Carla and would happily work with her again.

CHaving worked alongside Carla whilst supporting Paul’s Studio Manor House shoot on Friday, I knew I was in for a rather special afternoon today at Paul’s studio.

Carla is total class and she is a truly lovely person too. A real delight to work with due to her obvious experience, superb ability and warm and friendly personality. Nothing was too much trouble and all met with enthusiasm, despite it being the end of a long and hard weekend for her.

I completely understand why she is so popular, can’t wait to shoot her again and it goes without saying I totally recommend her without question.

Organised with Paul’s Studio to attend his latest location shoot at the Manor and Carla was 1 of the models at the shoot. I was fortunate to spend the morning working with Carla. We had an initial conversation on the type of images I wanted to capture. Working with Carla was very relaxed and the time passed quickly yet we managed to get all of the different images I wanted plus some time to experiment.

Carla is certainly a model who I would look to work with in the future. Thank you for a great shoot.

After a long wait, I finally got to shoot with Carla today at Paul’s Studio’s Manor House event. This lady really knows how to move, pose and present herself in such a way that you are pretty much guaranteed a perfect shot every time. It’s rare to find a model that has fully developed her craft to the pinnacle of excellence and who, at the same time, has the milk of human kindness running through her veins. It’s a killer combination making it very easy to highly recommend Carla to any photographer looking for a top class model. Carla is an absolute gem and I look forward to our next shoot together.

Down to earth, hard working, passionate and effortless to work with. If you still see her on purpleport do not hesitate to book her.

An absolute joy to work with! Not only is she beautiful, she is extremely reliable and punctual. A true professional. She did her own makeup and styling. Very pleased. She has all the makings of a great commercial model or as I hope a movie star.

I had the honour of working with Carla in Barcelona.

It wasn’t an easy day but she pulled it off without breaking a sweat.

100% professional from head to toe, it does not matter if you are a pro or a newbie, she will deliver.

Highly recommended!

Muchas gracias Carla

When I started shooting models just over a year ago, Carla was one of the first on my ‘would like to work with’ list – everything said below is true. Working with Carla was a real pleasure and she is a wonderful person in all respects. I’m looking forwards to shooting her again – perhaps on the continent if I can get my act together. If you get the chance to book Carla then just do it – there is nothing anyone could possibly regret.

Had the opportunity to work together with Carla during her stay in the Netherlands. We worked together on location in a friends house. All the positive references are roght. she is a lovely person , friendly, easy going, carla is very professional. From her portfolio you know she is very pretty, has a great body and posing elegance, she knows how to pose to improve the quality of your work. From the start she makes you feel comfortable. Next to her professionalism she is easy to communicate with, not only in her posing but also in discussion about items not directly related to the shoot or modelling in general.

Once again it was a great pleasure to work together with Carla . Hope to see her and work with Carla again.

Had the great pleasure of working with Carla on her studio day at Lovephoto studio in Newmarket.Being someone that I have wanted to work with for some time I jumped at the chance to book a couple of hours.There is not a lot I can say that hasn’t already been said,100% professional,stunning,friendly and chatty, poses effortlessly with or without direction and works hard to make sure you get the desired results.She was willing to try some lighting ideas I hadn’t used before and I got some great images.My only regret of the day is that I didn’t book more time.If you are a photographer thinking of booking Carla for a shoot don’t think just do it.

Highly Recommended

Our original shoot collapsed because I was unable to get there due to totally unforeseeable and unavoidable circumstances. Carla kindly fitted me in for 30 minutes the next day. (Thanks to Tarmoo for being so accommodating in helping to produce this slot) Despite the short time Carla gave me some beautiful images. Brilliant at fashion nude and what a stunning face! Thanks Carla – hope we can have a longer shoot soon

Carla has been on the top of the “models I want to shoot” list for some time, so it was really exciting to be able to finally shoot Carla at her LovePhoto studio studio day. Carla is super talented as a fashion and art nude model and very easy to work with. The results were really impressive. I hope to work with Carla again in the future.

If you get the chance to work with Carla what ever you do don’t pass it up, she is a fantastic and gorgeous model, poses effortlessly without any need for direction, she is friendly and really good fun to work with, I just cant recommend Carla enough and hopefully ill get the chance to work with her again someday, brilliant and thank you

Carla was fab. Our first shoot. And in Barcelona. Excellent. I think that I would run out of film, long before Carla ran out of poses. It was on one of Adrian Crooks workshops, highly recommended. Would deffo work with her again, a super model, very professional.

I have been fortunate enough to shoot Carla on 2 occasions now and enjoyed every minute,She is extremely professional and naturally beautiful,can easily adapt to different styles of the shoot and is a pleasure to work with.

It is easy to see why she is one of the most in demand models on this site,I look forward to working with Carla again.

I had an excellent shoot with Carla at my home studio this week. Carla is a very friendly and professional model, she arrived with a suitcase of excellent outfits and does her hair and make up to a very high standard. She is highly creative and poses naturally and also takes direction very well. I highly recommend Carla to other photographers you will not be disappointed. I look forward to working with Carla again when she is in the area again. Thanks Carla for a great shoot.

Had a second superb shoot with Carla. She is great at creating the right mood in the shot. I can only agree with all that has been said about her. Thanks Carla.

I have just finished a shoot with Carla at iSPy studio in Gloucester.

Four hours seemed to flash by. Every thought I had was acted on before I said it. Carla is a stupendous model and is able to somehow get you to develop ideas without trying.

I want another shoot with her and I cannot recommend her enough to all photographers.

The results are lovely and more than I ever expected.

Carla spent a a couple of days with me doing our first shoot of 2014. Its the third time I have shot with Carla just recently and it just gets better and better for me.

Fantastic model, superb poses. She understands what I am trying to achieve and works very hard for me resulting in a really productive weekend of retro, fashion and a host of beautiful images.

Thank you again Carla

What can you say that hasn’t been said already? Carla is all kinds of gorgeous and six types of lovely. She knows exactly how to pose herself to best effect, and has as much if not more passion for photography than you do. Five gold stars.

Carla is a fantastic model to work with. Her portfolio says it all (Yerbury, Ascough!) Professional, rarely needs direction, makes us amateurs lives so easy, a simple description of what you want to shoot and Carla will deliver, and more! Great to chat with. Look forward to Carlas next visit to Scotland.

Número uno, Carla es simplemente el mejor.

I had the pleasure of a day long shoot with Carla on 1st November after missing an opportunity to shoot with her in August when she was resident at my studio for the extended Bank Holiday weekend. She promised to return and she kept her promise.

I can honestly say it was the best most rewarding shoot I have had so far. I have said it before and I make no apology for repeating. ‘Carla is one of the most stunningly beautiful models I have had the pleasure to work with. She is extremely hard working but has an easy relaxed way that is totally engaging. A truly delightful person with a great sense of humour’. She brought unsurpassed style and elegance to the session and I am most grateful for all her efforts.

I do get to shoot with her again in a week or so, can’t wait.

Thanks Carla

Carla is an amazing model to work with. We have spoken over time and finally got to meet and work together. It was a fabulous shoot and i gave Carla a brief and a character i wanted her to play and the transformation was just stunning and we produced exactly what i had in mind for the images. As a person Calra is fun, hard working, punctual and com’s before the shoot were first class.

Carla is a first class model of the highest order and i have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Calra to work with and a hope to work with her again on several projects.

I met and worked with Carla on Sunday and only one word will do Amazing !

Carla is very down to earth and very easy to work with and needs little or no direction throughout the shoot but also responds well to your ideas. A total professional and full of energy and she works very hard to get you the best results possible.

Brought a great wardrobe and her makeup was excellent.

She is a different league……… Book her now

Highly recommended from me.

Carla is a wonderful model. We had a great shooting and I enjoyed every minute we worked together. As she is a great model our work turned out so well that you can see the results in a special edition of Playboy called “Playboy Cars”. Thanks Carla, I’d love to work with you again in 2014. Cheers!

Just brilliant.

Carla completely and utterly has the look

Even outside the train station she looked like a supermodel.

I chose Carla for my new DVD’s because she is just so great.

It would be tough (if not impossible) to take a bad picture of her.

Just book her, and book her now

Just brilliant.

Finally got to work with Carla! What a fabulous shoot Carla is a top professional, effortlessly moving from theme to theme – her posing is amazing and she is a lovely lady too. We did loads of changes and she was a total delight – i will certainly shoot with her again ( anytime) i recommend her to everyone – im delighted

Shot with Carla a couple of weeks back. Lovely person, well organised and easy to work with beforehand and during the shoot. Turned up with a smile, and immaculate hair and skin.. shot like a trooper, took direction brilliantly when it was asked for and worked brilliantly without.

The shoot was a breeze. Great results, and the studio door is always open. even if its closed

Carla is a most excellent model who’s very attractive with a yummie figure, creative, fun, professional with a good pose to expression ability that makes her a total pleasure to work with, I enjoyed every minute of our shoot making exceptional and brilliant images, highly recommended

I’ve been waiting for another opportunity to shoot with Carla since meeting her at the Wales weekend back in May and her visit to Pauls studio gave me the perfect chance. Pre-shoot comms were done via Paul and excellent despite going indirectly so on shoot day she had all the items I’d asked about plus a host of other items which she picked a couple of bits out from as possible accessories or variations which was great.

Carla is a dream to shoot with and can effortlessly pose without direction but also listens to my input & direction and was happy to help me when I asked with feedback from her experience which is great for my development.

Beautiful, easy to work with, great poses, friendly, great outfits, the list goes on, what’s not to like.

I just wish I’d booked more than the 2 hours that I did but I’d probably still be thinking something like that if I’d had the whole day.

(Still) Highly recommended and I hope to see you again soon

I’ve waited a long time to work with Carla & was not disappointed. She is so professional,versatile and easy to work with.

She appeared happy with all the ideas myself & photographer, Karl Baxter, put forward and was willing to let me create different looks.

In fact she made my job very easy with her great skin & bone structure.

I really hope to work with her again, she is an asset to everyone’s portfolio & I’m more than happy that she is finally in mine.

Thanks Carla!

I had the pleasure of working with Carla over the bank holiday weekend at John Gannon Studios in Winsford, Cheshire. We had a 3 day shoot booked with various photographers and it’s one of the best shoots I have ever done. Carla’s beauty is breath taking it almost leaves you lost for words ! However, she is one of the most down to earth and friendly people that I have ever met ! She is funny, gentle, warm, very caring and her objective throughout the whole 3 days was to make sure everyone was happy and she gave 110%. I have never seen a model work so hard and still be full of energy. It’s evident how much she loves her job and is passionate about delivering results through hard wand commitment.

Carla was extremely patient whilst in my make up chair ! We had so many make up changes over 3 days I have lost count. Each and every time we did changes Carla was so patient and understanding that some looks were more challenging than others. She never complained and put up with me being a perfectionist ! All the work we did paid off and everyone is delighted with results. Such a great team effort and every look we did she rocked it !

I totally recommend working with Carla to other people in the industry. She is one of the best models I have ever worked with and one of the nicest people I know. I know that the bank holiday weekend wasn’t just about working, I feel I have gained a great friend too since we got to spend so much time together and I feel I have known her for ages.

I look forward to working with you soon Carla and hopefully have a catch up as friends. This weekend has been one of my career highlights thanks to you and I have loved every minute of it. I think you have blown everyone away !

Lots of Love,

Sarah xxx

had the honour of working with Carla over the weekend, and she was truly a pleasure to work with and be around. She was well prepared and communications were excellent both before and during the day.

The morning of the shoot I arrived 15 minutes early to look around the studio, and Carla was already in hair & makeup almost ready to go for the first set. During the day we worked through many sets with different makeup and hair looks and several costumes, every time Carla looked incredibly beautiful and portrayed just the right mood/emotion. She consistently surpassed my expectations, and we achieved many amazing images.

She is incredibly professional, and moves effortlessly between poses with little to no direction. I’m almost convinced she can read minds as several times I was about to suggest an idea, just as she moved into position and hit the pose just how I wanted.

I can’t recommend Carla highly enough, and I know I will be planning another shoot with this lady very soon.

There is something special about being in the presence of incredible beauty. Shooting Carla is just such and experience. If you have the slightest opportunity to work with her take it. I drove a 200 mile round trip for 2 hours with her and it was so worth it. I am looking forward to another shoot soon… oh, and she is also a really nice person as well

Carla was an absolute pleasure to work with. Totally professional with a great figure perfect for fine-art and nude photography. Took direction very well and was patient, hard working and happy to work with me.

Without hesitation I would recommend her to anyone.

I had the unbelievable good fortune to meet Carla on my first excursion into studio photography – quite literally as a frame one novice about a year ago – and I’ve been lucky enough to work with her many times since. She’s always a delight to work with.

Carla ticks all the “professionalism” boxes – beauty, reliability, punctuality, wardrobe, makeup, and she has more different looks and disguises than the average chameleon can shake a stick at, etc. She poses effortlessly with and (much more importantly for a beginner like me) without direction. If you’re really stuck just ask her to pose, have a little think about lights, conclude she’s got it right as usual and shoot.

She’s patient beyond belief and totally committed to getting you the shot you want – if you know what that is – or just a damned good set if you don’t, and although she works with the good and the great in the industry most of the time, she remains absolutely 100% Diva Free. A really lovely person with a wicked sense of humour.

If you get the chance, book her. You’ll only regret it if you don’t. And if you don’t, I will – the good and great permitting!

Beautiful, polite, funny, easy to get on with and just an all round great person – you can’t help but like Carla and it felt as though I’d known her for years.

I was worried prior to the shoot that I might struggle to fill the time I had with Carla over 2 days, but it flew by. Any worries I may have quickly disappeared as soon as she arrived after a lengthy journey.

She worked hard from the moment we arrived at the studio, and never complained when we went for 2 location shoots in the cold October weather. Carla was very versatile and willing to model in a range of styles or themes to suit anything I asked of her.

Her communication is superb – almost to the point of responding before you’ve clicked the ‘send’ button, and the only disappointment I had was when the shoot was over. I cannot wait to work with Carla again, and I’m delighted with what we achieved during our time together.

Thank you very much Carla for being an amazing model. I look forward to seeing you again

Having wanted to work with Carla since pretty much joining PP I had no hesitation in snapping up her recent casting when she was in Birmingham.

I knew she was great from her incredible portfolio, but I realised just how good she is right from the first few shots. I remember looking through my view finder and thinking wow!

We made some awesome images that I can’t wait to edit.

I have rarely worked with the same model more than once, but Carla will certainly be one of those. Simply brilliant

Having met Carla over two years ago and shooting with her on several occasions since, I was delighted to have the opportunity to shoot with her once again. We spent several hours at my studio and achieved what I consider to be some of my best results yet with this fantastic model. Carla represents in my eyes the totally professional and skilful model who is able to produce stunning work whilst remaining the most delightful, friendly and considerate person to spend a day with photographing.

I would recommend Carla to any photographer of whatever skill level; an absolute must work with model.

What can I say about Carla that has not been seed a hundred times before…?

I got to shoot with Carla at the Paul’s Events Wales Weekend for a brief time one afternoon and what a pleasure it was. Not only of course is she absolutely stunning but she is such a lovely, polite, kind and generous person to work with too. Nothing is too much trouble and she works so hard to ensure you get the very best images. Conditions were not perfect yet not once did Carla comment let alone complain, instead she worked tirelessly throughout.

I always love working with Carla and just wish I could do it more often. Very highly recommended as always.

This is my first time working with Carla, and I was truly blown away by this lady. In a sentence, she is a star with that X-factor.

Her poses are breathtaking and she has a magnetic presence in front of the camera. I find it impossible to take a bad picture of her. To top it up, she has a wonderful, down to earth personality which makes it a real pleasure to work with her. Thanks for the great session Carla, and I look forward to work with you again!
