At the back end of last year I went to my mate's home studio with another friend 
Katie Royale is a full time professional model and was a dream to work with. She came with lots of outfits and accessories.
It's always a pleasure shooting with fabulous models but also to work with like minded photographers. Photographers that help each other out, that work with you without copying ideas, that are happy to let you use their kit or not afraid to ask to borrow yours.
I'm not a massive fan of group shoots, but working with friends is always worth doing. Especially when you can work with such a fabulous, professional model.
