| I have just finished a great days shoot with 2 NM mega stars, Big Guy at the Bakery AKA Myk and JuneC. We did some arty but bit raunchy/sexy couples pics of June and Troy Stevens, NOT ADULT IN ANY WAY. The theme was a nice balance not tame but very discrete and very different from other stuff on my folio . June had the patience of a saint to see the shoot through while I made a mess of lighting, in the end we nailed it. I will be posting a few over the next day or 2. When you meet up and work with folk of this quality or see the quality of the images others on NM create, the untruths fade into insignificance. PJEPHOTO Sep 29 2004

| Hi Myk,
I didnt get chance to speak to you yesterday to introduce myself. I am just emailing to thank you for your hospitality yesterday. It was the first time I had been and throughly enjoyed it,excellent venue,facilities and speakers.
I was a bit concerned though I think we may have left you the washing up to do upstairs.!!!! BRIAN 26 Sep 2004 |
|
| Hi Myk a quick note to say how much I enjoyed today and to say that I thought your
delivery on the slide show was excellent !. Particularly liked the humour
... they have have drink then do this....then have a drink and do
this ... This was the sex education lesson etc.
Just shows that photography can be fun!!!
Looking forward to the next meeting, thanks again ...

advice you gave me!!

| But credit must be given to our main photographer Myk from The Bakery Photographic Studios, who besides taking some great shots for the fashion and photographic sections of the book, and the majority of the product shots, taught me patience! Just as you can’t hurry a good make up, Myk taught us that you can’t hurry a good photograph either. Suzanne Aug 2004 |

| Hi hun,
Sorry I've not been in touch. My computer has not been able to send emails for days. Anyway, can you make the cheque out to Kate Ross, which is me and my normal name. Thanks Myk.
And thanks again for a fab weekend. I enjoyed every minute, and would love to come again if you ever needed me.
Hope you are well.
Kind Regards
Tempesta.... 16 Jul 2004 |

I've said previously it was a really enjoyable day ... can we

I bet !!!!! Norm 30 Jun 2004 |

| Myk Yes I had a great time, especially on the
Sunday, once I found my feet. and was very impressed with your
studios, I'll certainly come there again. I am pleased with
the results, I think the sheet shots worked well in the end
and glad that I came! ... Kind Regards Mark. 28 Jun 2004 |

| Myk, thanks. The photos look really good. Bill

| Hi Myk, I will post my pictures by the end of
next week. I am still really slow at figuring out curves in
Photoshop and it takes me a little longer till I am happy with
the finished product. I want to thank you again for a most enjoyable
time at the Bakery. We will definitely be in contact because
as it turns out, your studio is only an hour away. Hopefully
together we will have some great ideas for on-location shots.
Thanks again, Derek 26 Jun 2004 |

| I was looking for an image to make a birthday
card for my girl. It just so happen that I came across the champagne
glass pic and was wondering if I could use it for the card.
I would greatly appreciate it Darren 25 Jun 2004 |

| Hi Myk, How are you? Thanks for CD its great,
will make sure I credit you. Speak soon, Sue , 23 Jun 2004 |

| Hi Hun, Many thanks for a superb weekend first
of all. I learnt so much and met some fab people, and am so
happy i got to work with Cleveland and Susan. Look forward to
hearing from you. And thanks again. Lots of love Txxx 22 Jun

| Hi Myk, Thank you for a great weekend, and sorry
again for being so late on Sat, hopefully I made up for it on
Sun. Lovely studios and will be interested in booking it in
the future. Hope you are well and happy with the results of
the weekend, abi x 22 Jun 2004 |
|
| Hi Myk, just wanted to thank you and everyone
involved for your superb organisation over the weekend. I found
the TFP Party fun and useful as I'm sure everyone did. FYI I
did another unscheduled shoot on Sunday - in addition to the
ones you wrote down and the shoots on your schedule, I shot
with Susan/Tony alongside Tempesta in the last black-hole session
of the day. Would be great if I could get copies of those pix
also when they come through. Thanx again, all the best Will
21 jun 2004 |
|
| Hi Myk Thanks again for your hospitality. I should
have the DVDs with you by the end of the week, I'm moving house
this week so hope to get them away before it. I'm send the girls
a copy of everything in original jpg but will work on anything
they want altering afterwards. As you can Imagine they take
a while to do with the retouching so I've got a good months
work ahead! Anyway any problems give me a ring. Cheers Dean.
Ps here's the curve! 21 June 2004 |
|
| Hi Myk with a Y I bet your shattered! I just
wanted to thank you as well for inviting me to the TFP party
i had a really good time and made lots of contacts, it was a
lot of fun! We agreed TFP ye and i will let you know nearer
the time what time to expect me,it should be about 9.50 but
i will confirm for you the day before. See you soon chicken
Genny x 21 Jun 2004 |
|
| Hi Myk, many thanks for the weekend and your
help, even with everyone after your attention! I am on 12 hr
shifts for a few days, so it will be difficult to get the Cd's
to you before the weekend, but I'll try. Where else could I
get a photographic experience like this weekend! Excellent!
I'll be in touch soon with Cd's, Regards, Ged 20 Jun 2004 |
|
| Myk Thanks for a great weekend, great facilities
and organization! From Susan and my point of view we got far
more than we expected. Partly due to work and partly due to
the amount of pictures that I took, it will be at least two
and maybe even three weeks before I can send the pictures, but
I will try and be as quick as possible. As for the best model,
on Saturday I will vote for Abby, and on the Sunday Nelly Bosier,
I am very sorry that I didn't photograph her more, I only realized
too late how good she was. Thanks again Tony 21 Jun 2004 |
|
| Myk Thanks again for a great weekend, I really
enjoyed it! I'm working on processing the images as I tend to
do a lot of post processing on them, it may take me a while.
Hopefully I should have the cd-ready for posting by the end
of the week. Regards Mark. 21 Jun 2004 |
|
| Dear Myk Thanks for the opportunity of suggesting
I come to the TFP party. certainly enjoyed the chance to work
with different photographers and meet other models, and it was
really enjoyable day - and the food was lovely! I hope we get
to work with each other in the future. Best wishes Selene 21

| Hi Mike, Thanks alot for organising today's event,
I really enjoyed working in this friendly, warm environment.
Hopefully there will be many more to come!! Bye for now, Natalya.

| Myk Thanks for a great weekend I am in Sunny
Seattle and should be back in Blighty early next week if I drop
the CD off a week on Tuesday would that be OK Martin 20 Jun

Hiya Myk (Mike with a 'y') :O) Thanks for your
reply. I checked out your website and must say it's very impressive!
The scenery is beautiful (I especially like the ruins - I'm
fascinated by old buildings) and you appear to have an amazing
eye for opportunity! I'm going to have a drive out to your open
day (Sun 20th) and take a look around if that's ok - I just
want to get an idea what it's all about as I'm a complete novice,
and I also want to see how long it takes to get to your studio
so I can work out an appropriate time to book a shoot with you
(I hate being late for anything so I don't want to give you
an arrival time that's impossible for me to meet!). Is it ok
if I bring the boys along just on the open day (they're 12 &
4 years old and extremely well behaved - and no, I'm not just
saying that cos I'm biased! Lol)? It's ok if kids aren't allowed,
it'll just give me time to sort out a childminder if you could
let me know beforehand - though, to be honest, I wouldn't mind
making a day out of it by showing them around the local landmarks.
Anyway, I've rambled on enough! I look forward to hearing from
you. Take care, Claudette xxx

| Hi Myk, It was a brill weekend, really good experiance
and a rare opportunity! Was so glad to be part of it. It was
really nice to meet the photographers and the other models.
Have you had any pics back yet? I am just dying to see some!
Would you be able to e-mail me the one staning by the cat (with
the skirt)? I like that one. Hayden and Cleveland were enquiring
if I was attending next week, have you still got a full quota?
Regards Callie ;-) 16 Jun 2004 |

| Hi Myk Was indeed an enjoyable weekend - many
thanks - I'm only just recovering now. CD will be in the post
tomorrow, so you should hopefully have it by Saturday? Hope
it all goes well for you again this weekend all the best russell

| Dear Myk hope you have recovered from yesterday - I didn't
sleep a wink - so exhausted today. Thanks for being so calm!
and for all your hard work. I have attached a video/video cover
which I intend to use as part of a student starter kit for students
and these boxes will hold their make-up. Can your computer do
a compilation of 3/4 shots from the shoot to make up the front
cover? Oh - the lady in red! Emma - maybe there is a good one
of her I could put in the book? - as it was about the only make
up I did!! No doubt be in touch later - when I will have loads
more questions! bye for now - let me know about the video box
please - and do you know a printer that could print me off 1,000
copies - asap Suzanne 16 Jun 2004 |
|
Thx Myk, I'm ever hopeful for bigger and better things. I'll
pop a cheque in the post and I really appreciate the help you
gave and allowing me to use your photo... I'll try a few more
if that's OK and once they start selling, hopefully
charge a little more. Best wishes Richard 16 Jun 2004 |

| Louise Woodfield - Stunning, fun, very good for
first time!! (All models I worked with were helpful and pleasant)
ONCE AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR A GREAT DAY! Regards, Steve. 16 Jun

| Myk Cheers for last weekend it was good fun.
Did you say we were to forward CDs to you for distribution and
you would e-mail out some sort of global release?, or did a
dream that. Pete 15 Jun 2004 |
|
| Thank you for the past 2 days it was a wonderful
experience! :-) The makeup artists said they wanted me there
today if possible. And i really wish i could be. (Hope you will
let me back, if i ever need or wish to.) and just to double
check, my address is - ...thanks. :-) SallyAnn 14 Jun 2004 |

| Hi Myk Thanks for last Saturday - looking forward
to next Saturday. Alun 14 Jun 2004 |
|
| Hi Myk, Just wanted you to know how much George
and I enjoyed the day - had a great time. If you have problems
with next weekend due to photographers crying off (which I'm
sure you won't) then please bear us/me in mind as late substitutes
Please also thank Nathan for his help and your "canteen
workers" they did a great job too. When talking to -30Na.0than
he said he could put me in touch with some people in Altrincham
re my "photographing dance" project - b+.+---ut we
never got to talk later - maybe if he has five minutes he could
drop me an email with the info. Many thanks again, I'm sure
the next three sessions will be a success. Norm.13 Jun 2004 |
|
| Myk double thanks - first for such great day
and the invitation to come along. I really enjoyed myself back
in the "gogs" (gogledd = north Wales). It was great
to meet so many that were previously just pictures or names
on a screen. Becky was WELL chuffed with some of the results
and the opportunity to work with other photogs although I think
she may not have been what they were expecting. Made good time
and got back home in around 3.25 hours. and the 7 hours travel
was worth every minute THANK YOU Martyn 12 Jun 2004 |
|
myk, Thanks for sending me the link. I'm really
pleased with the pictures - John did a good job, didn't he?;
and thanks very much for helping to make the day go so well
- you made it great fun for both of us. Look forward to working
with you again 'Jayne' x 21 May 2004 |
|
| Hi myk, I have uploaded the 12 pictures that
*** likes most to the big loaf server.She would like to use
the pseudonym of 'Jayne' which is her middle name. *** really
enjoyed the shoot and is really pleased with the pictures. Regards
and thanks again. John 20 May 2004 |
|
| Hello Mike, I would like to thank you for your
hospitality and an excellent informative evening, all the students
enjoyed touring your facilities, and listening to your talk
I am sure that some of them will visit you in the future. I
would like to visit you again later this year with another group
if that would be alright, looking forward to seeing you again
soon. Regards Margaret 20 May 2004 |
|
| Hi myk, Many thanks again for all your help with
the unusual shoot with *** on Monday. I really do appreciate
the help, ideas and guidance you give me when I visit the bakery
studio. I have learnt a lot on this visit especially paying
more attention to detail, unfortunately I was not concentrating
on the wine glass enough it looked ok on the preview screen
of the camera but on the computer it is blown out and lost too
much detail. Never mind I have like I always do when using your
studio learnt something very valuable. I will see *** this afternoon
or tomorrow morning and see which photos see prefers. How do
I go about uploading them to you? Regards John 19 May 2004 |
|
| I was really impressed with your facilities and
the visit has taken a load off my mind, knowing that my photos
will be in safe hands! Suzanne 15th May 2004 |
|
| Hi Myk Yes, I love the pix that you posted!!
Thank you so much. Emma.xx 14th May 2004 |
|
| Many thanks for an excellent evening. We both
enjoy a session which gives rise to discussion and questions
? ?? No doubt that digital is the future even the film Luddites
amongst us will eventually change. Regards, Clive and Celia

| I didnt think you would put ALL the funny ones
in!! But hey, there are 1 or 2 diamonds in there as well. Looking
forward to the CD. Thanks again for a wonderful day. Regards

| Gill, The following link is
the photographer I mentioned ... They have excellent studio
facilities and high end digital photography. Do a lot of model
work but also pack shots etc. I can definitely recommend myk
(mike with a 'y' ) and the Bakery studios - excellent photography
/ reasonable prices. Myk did all the pictures and adding logo's
etc on the pictures of Dani ... Regards Ian 24 Mar 2004 |
|
| Thanks Myk you are a star.
Daniella x x 23 Mar 2004 |

| You will be pleased to know
that my neighbours, Andrew & Caroline, were VERY pleased
with the photo's I took on Wednesday Raymond 20 Mar 2004 |
|
| Have just posted some images
taken today with Lucidique at Myk's studio, The Bakery, near
Wrexham. Myk was brilliant again, very helpful and his usual
welcoming self. The studio speaks for itself. If you are looking
for a shoot in the Northwest UK, it cannot get much better than
this combination Pete 9 Mar 2004 |
|
| Just wanted to say that I have
just spent a couple of days up with Myk in his studio. Well
what can I say other than WOW! The studio is fantastic, has
absolutely everything you need. A dream to photographers. It's
definitely a gadget place...boys and their toys!! Working with
Myk was fab, a really great photographer, lots of great...and
crazy ideas, just how I like it! So basically I would highly
recommend Myk and his studio's to anyone. Vix 17 Feb 2004 |
|
| The photographs you recently
did of Janine are absolutley stunning This is just the type
of thing I'm wanting to do, particularly the abstract images
... cheers mate, and once again, magic stuff Gav 16 Feb 2004 |
|
| Hey Myk Just wanted to say
hi and a big thanx for having me at the BAKERY, I really enjoyed
my time there, and we got some great images, can't wait to see
them!! ... It really was a joy working with you, and if you
ever need me to come up for anything I am sure it can be arranged!!
take care Love Vix 14 Feb 2004 |
|
| Dear Myk, I really enjoyed
my time with you as always ...Thanks for the hospitality ...Thanks
again for a great day Mick 14 Feb 2004 |
|
| Hiya ... I need to get some
more professionel pictures of myself to get started and I love
your work! I look forward to hearing from you, Shinie x 11 Feb
2004 |
|
| Hi Myk, thanks for the info, we
really enjoyed the session at the Bakery and the slides have
just come back, they are good. We appreciated your help and
expertise, the Bakery is an amazing venue ... If you ever have
any workshops on Photoshop let us know, but I would need a tutor
with a lot of patience and a sense of humour! Regards Pat and
Peter 09 Feb 2004 |
|
| Cheers for Friday - Myk Thanks again for a great
day. Sorry to stay so late but I think we got what we set out
to cover and more so in Alan's case. I was totally shattered
by the end but the images make up for it. See you soon. Pete,
8 Feb 2004 |
|
| Hi Myk, Thanks for the help last Thursday, I
really enjoyed the photoshoot as did Alyona - she has already
said we should come back and use your studio facility again.
We got some pretty good photographs, I'll email them to you
when I have them scanned on, the smoke effect shots were really
interesting. Paul 8 Feb 2004 |
|
|
| Hi Myk, just a quick thank you for the [WS] course
the other day, especially as you were under the weather. It
was far more relaxed than I had expected, with all four of us
getting on very well. There was an instant noticeable improvement
in my picture quality with the digital camera and your studio
sets. My pictures actually (for the first time) looked like
a professional had taken them! Ged 13 Jan 2004 |
|
| Hi myk, Hope you are feeling better. Thanks for
a great day on Friday most enjoyable as always. A quick question
for you, how do I avoid the ring type catchlight in the eye
when using the paraflash, it has appeared on about six shots
mainly when taking close up shots. Not had this problem before
on the three occasions I have used the flash. Is it possibly
caused by standing to close to the model? Thanks John 12 Jan
