Lydia Reeves Reviews 128

Lydia is a true artist who really makes the whole experience beautiful, empowering and ensuring your comfort at every opportunity. So excited to see the finished product! What an amazing way to commemorate how your body looks and feels at any stage of life. Would recommend to anyone and everyone.

From the moment I walked into Lydia’s studio, I knew I was in a safe space. Her work environment (AKA Art Gallery) is beautiful and every wall adorned with brightly coloured casts of vulvas, boobs, bums and much more!
She made me feel so safe, welcome and at ease to share my story and my feelings about my own body, whilst also sharing hers. It felt like a real art therapy session!

I am so grateful for her work, to allow myself to treat my body for what it is, art.

I can now truly appreciate how individual we all are and how special that is.
Thank you for a wonderful casting session, Lydia! I hope to return soon!

I've met Lydia a few times when I've gone to my friends casting sessions and found her so welcoming and calming. The first time I went into the studio, I did not know where to look, but that quickly evaporates when you hear some of the stories from the art on the wall. Like many women I have not been comfortable in my own skin for years, but here is a safe space that makes you feel so empowered and that you could do anything! Please bottle that feeling, so we can get that experience again for the low days. Really looking forward to receiving my artwork.

Lydia is the most wonderful, caring, considerate and respectful person you could wish to meet. She put me at complete ease and I thoroughly enjoyed my casting session! I would highly recommend Lydia, a fabulous artist with real passion and integrity.

Was a little apprehensive on arrival but within 3 mins I felt completely at ease. Lydia is a wonderful woman who clearly is a master at what she does. Her and Roxy where fantastic.
Really enjoyed the whole experience and will definitely go again.
Can’t wait to see the finished result. Am so happy I had the opportunity to meet Lydia and her team.
THANK YOU.

Every time I come to see Lydia (and I've been a lot now!) I have the most magical, memorable and comfortable experience, she really is a very unique kind of creative with brilliant visions, a calm nature and endless care. As someone who has struggled with health issues over the years which has resulted in a complicated relationship with my body, being able to have castings of it made feels like a victory, a celebration and a deeply personal act of kindness all at once. I'm ticking off the parts casted now; chest, vulva, tummy, hands – let's see what comes next!

I have been a fan of Lydia's work for many many years. After years of hating on my body I decided to LOVE her and CELEBRATE her on her 40th trip around the sun and took the plunge for a boob cast!

I was cast by the awesome Bertie in her Hull studio. Bertie was just so wonderful! She was kind, empowering, funny and amazing at what she does. It felt a little weird to stand there and be slathered in silicone by a stranger haha but Bertie put me right at ease. It was such a fun day. The mould came out beautifully.

I received the finished piece today after it was sent down to Lydia so she could work her magic. I'm absolutely thrilled! I chose a colour shift blue/green colour and it's so stunning. The details are incredible and for the first time in my life I genuinely love a part of my body. Thank you for giving me this experience Lydia and Bertie, I'll treasure my boobies forever 💜

Lydia is an amazing person and artist. She was so kind and welcoming. I did a pop-up casting and she was willing to accomodate to what I wanted (boobie casting instead of vulva casting). It was very comforting and cosy in the pop-up studio because Lydia made the time to talk and hang out a little before casting. She works fast and precise and tells you what is happening the entire time. She explained all the options as well and was very transparent about pricing. Thanks for an amazing experience, can't wait to receive my cast!

This is my second cast, my first cast was absolutely perfect! Visiting Lydia is so good, she talks you through the whole process, helps discuss colours and what to expect from the casting. She makes you feel extremely comfortable and at ease throughout. Cannot wait to get the full set.

Lydia was absolutely brilliant. She took the time at the start of the session to really get to know myself and my girlfriend, we had a laugh and chatted about body confidence which helped me feel really confident. Eve was fantastic also and I felt completely at ease with both of them.
I’m autistic so was extremely nervous about the sensory overload of having the boob cast however Lydia reassured me and kept me distracted the whole time without me even realising that’s what she was doing! It was relaxed and a lovely experience. I’m now excited to receive my cast in 12 weeks and then book my girlfriend in for hers! Thank you so much Lydia, I’ve waited years to come to you and I’m so glad I finally did it!

Lydia is kind, considerate and empathetic. She made me feel incredibly relaxed and comfortable while I put myself well out of my comfort zone and I unexpectedly really enjoyed my session and can not wait to see what this incredible artist creates. Thank you Lydia xx

I’ve been thinking about visiting Lydia for years and after seeing her own cast on IG, I knew now was the right time to visit. The whole process was easy and amazing start to finish and I felt comfortable instantly in Lydia’s presence. Would highly recommend it to anyone considering it

All my friends started getting boudoir photoshoots so I got thinking and decided that a body cast would be a unique/artistic/fun way to capture my body in a moment of time. So I booked in with Lydia back in April, and she agreed to do a custom boob casting with my hands/rings. She was super professional, took the time to talk through ideas and walk through the process, and then gave some suggestions to get the perfect finish for what I had in mind. Super excited to see the end results!

Lydia cast my 5 month old baby’s hand and feet; she was super patient, created a calm environment, and was genuinely lovely to chat with (and my breastfed baby was in nirvana surrounded by so many colourful boobie casts!)

What an incredible, uplifting experience – truly one for the memory books!

I first discovered Lydia online a few years ago and have been in awe of her beautiful work ever since. When I was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, I knew right away that I wanted to mark this moment in a powerful and meaningful way – and getting a boob cast with Lydia was at the top of my list.

I had seen so many amazing stories of women who had been empowered through her art, and I knew I wanted to be one of them. And wow, did Lydia deliver. From the very beginning, she was warm, kind, and genuinely compassionate. She made space for my story, really listened, and made me feel completely seen and supported – I’ll never forget that.

The casting session itself? So much fun and totally professional! I walked out with a huge smile on my face and a lightness in my step, knowing that no matter what lies ahead, my boobs have been beautifully and lovingly immortalised by Lydia and her amazing team.

I wholeheartedly recommend a boob cast – whether it’s to mark a milestone, celebrate your body, or just because you can. We all deserve to feel this empowered and to have gorgeous artwork honouring the bodies we live in.

Thank you, Lydia – you’re pure magic. xx

My Casting Session with Lydia was a-m-a-z-i-n-g!
I wanted three different casts and had various ideas. Lydia took the time to elaborate on those ideas and turned them into a proper vision of how the casts will look in the house. There were tons of options to choose from, and she really adjusted to my wishes, from colour, to finish, to size... Just everything.
One of the casts was huge, so she had her little helpers that were super friendly and efficient.
The atmosphere was comfortable and so natural. I felt well taken care of, which I find important given the vulnerability of the situation.
I would absolutely recommend her for anyone interested in immortalising parts of themselves :-) Such a fun and expanding exerience!

I had the absolute honour of doing a boob casting with the incredible Lydia Reeves and I’m still glowing from the experience. From the moment I arrived, Lydia made me feel SO safe, nurtured, comfortable, and deeply held. She has this beautiful, grounded energy that instantly puts you at ease. This wasn’t just a casting, it was a ceremony. A soulful, empowering moment that helped me close the chapter on my breastfeeding journey with my 2.5-year-old son. To have a piece of this part of our story, immortalised in art feels like pure magic. Lydia reminded me how powerful and sacred our bodies are, how much they give, how much they hold. I left feeling seen, celebrated, and profoundly grateful. This cast is more than just a keepsake, it’s a symbol of love, strength, and motherhood in all its raw beauty. Thank you, Lydia. You are amazing, and what you do matters so deeply

Had an amazing casting session with Lydia this week. If you are in two minds just go for it. She will make you feel so comfortable and confident. Her art is beautiful, can’t wait to see my cast and display it in my living room!

I came to see Lydia a couple of weeks before I had a double mastectomy due to having the BRCA 2 gene mutation. Being in my early 30s I wanted a reminder, a memory of my boobs. I only recently got it back even though I had the cast done a few years ago. After having my double mastectomy I had a sudden doubt of whether I wanted to see it or not, this was no problem for Lydia who held onto it until I was ready which was incredible. Now I have my cast and I love it, its beautiful, so detailed and the colourshift design is incredible. I'm so grateful to Lydia and the entire experience I remember very fondly. Thank you so much - I'd highly recommend to anyone xx

I was so so nervous as I struggle with social anxiety so this was a brave step for me but Lydia made me feel so comfortable 💖 she explained how everything worked, how she would need me to stand etc & was so easy to talk to (even for me! 🙈) that I almost felt silly for being so scared - it honestly felt like a friendly, relaxing spa treatment in the end! 💆🏻‍♀️ there was no awkwardness or judgment, just celebration and empowerment 💗
I would definitely recommend Lydia to anyone interested in getting a cast done, especially if you’re an introvert like me 😇 Thank you Lydia & Team, you do an amazing job!! 🫶🏻
