I had a good day working with Graham. He was very polite and respectful of my time. We did a mixture of photos and filming which went smoothly. His email communication prior to the shoot was clear and detailed, so it was straightforward to get a shoot booked in. He put me at ease and I enjoyed working with him!

We had the utmost pleasure hosting Graham and his model, Faerie Willow, at our studio. Graham proved to be an exceptionally polite and considerate individual, ensuring the well-being of everyone involved in the shoot.

From the initial communications, Graham's friendly and concise approach set a positive tone for the collaboration. On the day of the shoot, it was truly delightful to assist Graham as he brought his clear vision to life with each shot he wanted to create.

We wholeheartedly recommend Graham as a highly skilled and talented photographer. It was a privilege to work with him, and we eagerly look forward to the opportunity of hosting him again in the future.

I'm going to be massively boring because I've done references for Graham before, but I like being at the top of his list, so here goes:

He's lovely, lovely, lovely. Professional, kind, well-prepared, courteous and an all round super person to spend a day with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him or to work with him again myself. Yes! Perfect! xx

Oh I just LOVE working with Graham!

We first shot together on one of his first model shoots a few years ago and i've felt very invested in his development as a photographer and website owner ever since and have been very grateful that we've worked together several times in the years passing. Graham is lovely to work with, he's very respectful and careful in his approach - making me feel comfortable to be tied by him and communicate with him throughout any sets. But he's also just a lovely person and I think I spent more time laughing than posing last week during the shoot!

Graham is also well organised and makes it easy to know what to bring and what to expect. All in all, I love working with him and he takes beautiful bondage (and non-bondage) images!

Very happy to recommend him to others! :D

Graham kindly came along to our recent mega-location shoot to help out behind the camera. He soon got over initial nerves at shooting for someone else's commercial project and really got into his stride- shooting some absolutely awesome sets with all of the models. He was kind, helpful, cheerful and enthusiastic - and he brought cakes!

All around top chap. Thanks, Graham!

Ahh lovely Graham. He's so kind, so courteous, and someone I consider to be a real friend. As a result, I'm probably not the most stunningly objective person to give him a reference, but obviously, he's only my friend because he's lovely, and also a delight to work with. Thoughtful, considerate, honest and open, he's one of the nicest people I shoot fetish work with.

I had a brilliant shoot working with the marvelous Graham last month.

Graham is utterly wonderful to work with. Not only is Graham a fantastic photographer who is able to produce stunning fetish photographs, he is also an incredibly lovely person. He is kind and relaxed and I felt totally chilled in Graham's company from the moment I met him. Not only did we produce some amazing images together, we also had a good laugh.

At all times, Graham was respectful and mindful of my comfort. He has a well organised way of working and I felt safe being tied up by him. If there was anything I wasn't comfortable doing, I know I would be comfortable telling him. Indeed, before doing any of the sets, Graham talked though what he wanted to achieve from a set and we discussed it together. Working with Graham is a perfect example of how a bondage shoot should be run. We also did a couple spanking sets, once again, it was carefully discussed before we commenced filming so we both knew exactly what was going to happen.

Working with Graham was a real joy and a privilege. My highest recommendations!

I had another wonderful shoot with Graham this week!

I think when you have worked with someone a few times its hard not to set high expectations, but this shoot did not fall short! I had a great day in the studio shooting various kinds of bondage including metal and rope. We shot a whole variety of clothed, lingerie and nude images and of course with plenty of colour! :D

I met Graham when he first attended a lighting course that I was modelling for and it has been really nice to see how he has progressed each time we have worked together, this time he was very confident with his set ups and despite the studio not having exactly what he wanted, he used a variety of other lights and created some really beautiful images! Graham always gets stunning results and something I really like is that, although we are shooting fetish/bondage content, Graham always makes his models look beautiful and portrays them in a positive light! That (and him being a lovely person) is why I'm happy to include him in one of the few bondage websites I will work for.

With bondage there always has to be interaction in order to apply the ropes/cuffs etc. and graham is very respectful with this, he is professional and safety conscious! I tried to do a set involving clothes pegs but found it was just a bit too much for me, which Graham really respected and insisted I remove them immediately. This really put me at ease and also made me feel able to try more things knowing that I wouldn't be judged badly or forced to do anything I wasn't comfortable with.

At the end of the day we did a few shots out on location and again I felt entirely comfortable and well looked after. I'm always delighted to work with Graham and am happy to recommend him to other models!

Thank you for another lovely shoot!

Saracen House Studio

It's always a complete pleasure welcoming Graham to Saracen House; as always Graham is a total gentleman, makes sure his models are fed and watered and comfortable and clear and focused on the shots he wants to create and just a general all round good egg. Would have no hesitation in recommending Graham to any model and studio most highly.

Lovely lovely; just had my fifth (or maybe sixth) shoot with Graham, and I can't recommend him highly enough. It's always a bit tricky to leave references for photographers who've become friends, because I'm not sure if I can be anywhere near objective. On the other hand, it's worth saying that, out of the many photographers I work with every year, Graham has become one of my relatively few genuine photographer friends. And that's because he's genuinely just lovely. Great pre-shoot communication; he's also kind, patient, very professional and great fun. So YES! I recommend him, as a photographer, as a friend, and as a person. :)

Kitty Quinzell

After my last shoot with Graham last year, I knew today would be an enjoyable day.

Graham is so easy to work with, he has excellent pre communications, providing a mood board to show what he wants to achieve from the shoot and gives minimal direction which means I can get into a flow and really do my best poses and expressions.

He has a great understanding of light and where a model needs to be positioned to look as flattering as possible to her and will move himself to get the best shots.

With fetish photography, a great deal of care and trust is required, Graham is wonderfully understanding, gentle and a gentleman - in every way.

I will be back next year!

Sophia Smith

When I finally met Graham, it felt like I already knew him. Communication was top prior to the shoot and we had exchanged plenty on social media beforehand too. This helped me to understand his goal from our booking. He has an elegant, clean and fresh fetish/kink/bdsm style and it is flawless. He was a gent throughout and I felt completely at ease. I recommend him without hesitation. x

I had been really looking forward to my shoot with Graham after reading his glowing references and loving his style; and he did not disappoint!

Graham was an absolute pleasure to work with and time flew by. He made sure I was fed and had plenty of tea breaks, always looking out for my comfort. But we also got a ton of great images and managed to fit in several different sets and a short video which was a lot of fun.

He had a clear vision for what he wanted to shoot but was also very open to my contributions. His pre-coms including mood boards were truly excellent and I never felt pressured at any point. He was an absolute pleasure to work with, many laughs were had and I felt genuinely safe and respected throughout which is vital when shooting this kind of content.

I hope to work with Graham again soon and wholeheartedly recommend him to other models! :)

Joceline Brooke-Hamilton

LOVE HIM! That's all, cos I already said everything else in previous references. But he's super, I recommend him without reservation.

I first met Graham on a workshop run by John Tisbury last year, we stayed in touch and finally managed to align our schedules! Graham was so good with his organisation and communication that I managed to create a London tour based around our shoots and we shot together twice within the week.

We covered such a variety over the two days including colour themed bondage for ColFet Media, art nude, video work, lifestyle/location and rope bondage/suspension work with an external rigger. Graham was incredible patient as it took a while to bring all the elements together during the pre-coms and was incredibly respectful, polite and fun to work with once in (and out) of the studio. He was very thoughtful when it came to my comfort and safety, especially when we brought in a rigger for some shibari style suspension work. This was a new style for Graham and he was very understanding of the expectations and limits imposed by this style of shoot, I think we all came together to produce some wonderful results!

I felt very at ease shooting with Graham and the two days flew by! Lots of laughs, great images and so much fun! I can highly recommend Graham to other models and do hope to work with him again! :D

Thank you!!

This was my second shoot with Graham; he is a huge pleasure to spend time with.

He also has great ideas, is super at direction, and is a marvellously trustworthy and reassuring individual to work with.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Freya

I had a full day shoot with Graham on my London tour. Graham was really easy going and had lots of ideas for our shoot. He even provided a mood board before the shoot so I had some ideas of the sorts of shoots we would be doing. He even brought food and drinks for us for dinner.

We got so many awesome shots and I can not wait to see some go up on Purpleport.

Kitty Quinzell

I had a full days shoot with Graham at Lofthouse studio. Before I even arrived in London, I had full details of where I was shooting, what I was shooting and what I would need so I arrived confident that I was fully prepared and ready to rock.

Upon meeting Graham - I felt instantly at ease, he was warm, friendly and very polite and well spoken.

He had some fantastic ideas for poses and concepts but didn't over direct me so I could pose freely and do my best work.

He put my comfort at the forefront of the whole shoot, making sure I was warm, hydrated, well fed etc.

We viewed the images as we went and they looked fab

The day absolutely flew by and before I knew it we were packing up.

Will I shoot with him again? Undoubtedly!

Amie Boulton

On Saturday i had the pleasure of meeting and working with the very lovely Graham. He came and joined myself and Chris Conway on a group shoot event we hosted at woodbridge studio and it was a joy to model for him. He was 100% professional, worked well amongst the group and plenty of fun. I was aware that my style of modelling it not his usual style so i was flattered that he came along and so pleased he did as i've seen one image already and its fab! I would have no hesitation in recommending Graham to anyone and would happily work with him again at any point in the future.

Thankyou for joining us and being part of a very enjoyable productive day

Chris Conway

Graham was one of the photographers that attended a group shoot I hosted at Woodbridge Studios with model Amie Boulton last Saturday, and it was an absolute pleasure to have him there.

Although we didn't have a huge amount of time to get to know each other, I'd have no hesitation in recommending him as a photographer to anyone looking to work with him, either on an event like this or on a 1-to-1 basis!

Hopefully catch you on another event in the future :)
