We were very pleased to welcome Martyn to our studio today for his first visit.

Excellent pre shoot communication, he arrived on time despite a 3 hour drive.

The perfect customer, and a complete gentleman in every way.

Very relaxed, respectful to the models needs, great to talk to and accomplished as a photographer. What more could you want.

We look forward to seeing the results having caught sight of a few of the back of camera shots.

Highly recommended to any model or studio. Hopefully, despite the distance we will be able to welcome him back again.

Martyn came to photograph me at my place in Nottingham recently. He was the first photographer to use the location, and I'm pleased with how it worked out. Martyn made use of the wonderful natural light in the room we put a few different looks together from the clothes and accessories I have there. It was a nice relaxed shoot, Martyn was very chill and happy to go with the flow. The time went quickly and we had a nice time chatting and shooting away. I'd be happy to work with Martyn again one day and certainly recommend him to other models.

Martyn was kind enough to travel all the way from Yorkshire to photograph me at Thurston Lodge. It was such pleasure to work with such an accomplished photographer and I would highly recommend him to other models.

thank you for a great shoot :)

Martyn came and booked a couple of hours with me in Whitby! It was a great shoot, I loved his creativity and eagerness to capture something different to what we had already shot! Martyn is very chilled out and a pleasure to model for! The images he took were beautiful, very happy to recommend to others.

Gaffer was such a kind and considerate photographer - an hour prior to our shoot I had a bad experience, where I had to change the meeting point unexpectedly, he kindly and unphased offered to pick me up from home rather than me walking a long time. On the shoot itself I found his technical knowledge superb and he already had a good idea for backgrounds and details and how best to show someone off with light, I loved the images on the back of the camera from the first set - we talked the whole time and did lots of different ideas. I also really enjoyed him having his assistant on board with us, making it a fun trip out. I really hope I get to shoot with him again and I would recommend him even to first time models.

Such a delight to work with. Martyn is always organised and knows exactly what he's looking for. He likes to challenge himself with new styles whilst also allowing the model to have her own creative input. We have shot many others times in the past and I would have no problem shooting gain with Martyn in the further. He is professional and reliable. A pleasure to work with.

Had another great shoot with Martyn today. The shoot was really fun and relaxed. Martyn is friendly, professional and very easy to get along with. He's very good with coming up with ideas on the spot and using natural light.

Highly recommend

Martyn attended one my lighting courses today. He was an asset to the group, really good company and very polite and respectful to our model and all the other people on the course. It was a really nice group of people today and Martyn played a big part in that. I would recommend any model to work with him.

Martyn attended one of our workshops hosted by Mike Croshaw. We found Martyn to be a really friendly guy with a great attitude and willingness to learn. He was professional in his approach to both the model and the studio and worked well in a group situation. I would highly recommend Martyn to other studios, workshops and models. He is welcome back here any time.

I had a really nice and relaxed shoot with Gaffer earlier today. We worked well together and had lots of interesting conversations :). He was full of ideas, I can't wait to see the end results! I'd definitely work with Gaffer again and I recommend him to other models.

I had my first shoot with Gaffer today, was very warm and welcoming from start to finish full of ideas and enthusiasm for shots. He makes a great cup of tea as we discussed ideas and what we are comfortable starting and finishing with.

He had great pre communication and knows exactly what makes a great shot. I felt very comfortable from start to finish as we stopped through the shoot after so many images to review how they went. From what I saw we got some great images!

I would highly recommend Martyn to work with he has a lovely character & some fantastic Ideas. I can't wait to hopefully shoot with him again sometime.

Thank you again

Had a wonderful shoot with Martyn! Felt like I was hanging out shooting and chatting with an old friend within an hour of starting, and I've received so many beautiful images back from him I'm having trouble choosing which ones I want! Professional and easy to work with, and excellent communication up to and during the shoot. Can't wait to shoot with him again, and would definitely recommend :)

I had a great shoot with Martyn yesterday, he is a total gent and really helped me out when I was on my tour to Nottingham and Hull. He had lots of ideas for poses which was good as it got me out of my usual routine, the shoot seemed to get better and better as we went along and he let me look through them on the computer after we shot. We got some really nice photos and I would definitely work with him again, highly recommended.
