Here we go again..

What can one say about The Graham...

He has the most amazing warehouse of pretty, detailed, gothic, vibrant, elegant, sexual underwear I ever saw. And it all looks really good on him 🤣 I jokes. Nah, gorgeous house, all perfectly set up to shoot in, easy, chilled personality, allows for mutual input with every shot and set up, final images are tasty and I just really enjoy working with the fella.

A long time coming - Graham and I FINALLY worked together!! Graham travelled down to London to shoot at my home for 5 hours (originally 4, but extended!) with the plan to focus mainly on sets utilising new lingerie sets Graham had to shoot as well as a couple of other ideas working through from fashion-twist to art nude. The 5 hours flew by as time always does when on an enjoyable and successful shoot, and the results are looking just as good! Thanks so much for a fantastic shoot Graham and I truly hope to work with you again in the not so distant future! :)

I had the honour of working with Graham at Saracen House Studio in MK for 4 hours. We shot lots of fun fashion images and I really cannot wait to see the results!

I was very excited when we scheudled this shoot and I had lots of outfits planned the moment he messaged. He is such a down to earth person, an all round professional photographer and I really enjoyed every minute shooting together! His pre-comms were emaculate and he is a wonder to work with

I could have easily shot for another 4 hours! We shot a great Beauty Portrait set which was for Valentines day with a red theme which was epic!. We had lots of laughs and banter and the time flew by!

I would highly recommend shooting with Graham if you haven't already and I cannot wait to work together again in the near future.

Thanks for a great shoot,

Natasha

I had the honour of working with Graham last week in the glorious Lanzarote! We had originally planned a shoot together for the first time mid January, but when Graham messaged me a few weeks before to say ‘actually, do you fancy Lanzarote instead of the studio in Stoke?’ I quickly replied with a very excited yes!! Working alongside Graham’s events and workshops, GGphotoventures, myself and two other models flew to Lanzarote for 6 days of photography, high fashion, fun, laughs and new forever friends! And LOTS of EPIC images.

WOW is all I can say- Graham captured so many fabulous shots. I was happy int he first hour of the first day, let alone from the whole week! The art we created together was epic and I can’t wait to keep sharing these with the world!

Graham is super kind, friendly and fun. Full of laughs and banter which is always a bonus! Made this an even more enjoyable trip. Super professional and clearly knows his stuff when it comes to photography and what works well…

I was honoured to join Graham on this photography trip and I can’t wait for round two in the sunshine! Thank you so much for having me.

Graham is a legend!!

We had our first shoot a few days ago and it really went fantastic! He is very easy and cool to work with. Well prepared he came with his own lighting and even some outfits for his own ideas. The shoot went very smooth and we created amazing photos together! I’m definitely recommending!

I can't even tell you how much I thoroughly enjoyed our creative fashion shoot today. Graham is so easy to work with and conversations were flowing with ease. He made me feel super comfortable and confident from the beginning of the shoot to the end. During the shoot I was educated from his brilliant 10 years worth knowledge of photography and modelling which I really appreciate!! Every step of the way he was supportive and honestly one of my best experiences modelling so far. Such a respectful chap! Also bought some cool clothes tbh hahaha loved it! Thankyou for the best experience graham. I really truly appreciate it! We took some mega shots!!! Whoop!! FPIs here we comeee!!!

Ella Ru

What a wonderful shoot this was!! It was my first shoot with Graham and we had the best time!! He was so easy to get along with and we were talking like old friends within five minutes of working together. He has some fantastic and creative ideas and knows exactly what he's doing with the camera. We got some wicked shots and have already discussed future shoots! If you get the chance to work with this man, take it! You won't be disappointed! Recommended 100% by me! Thank you for such an amazing shoot Graham!! xx

I joined Graham on one of his organised, week-long photo trips to Alicante, Spain last week. From start to finish this was an immensely enjoyable and worthwhile experience. In no particular order here are some of the highlights for me -

1. Superb selection of models

2. A group of photographers that gelled, making for an excellent team dynamic

3. Beautiful villa and early reconnaissance on shoot locations

4. Spot on pre tour comms

5. Graham even ensured the sun shone all the time

6. Endless supply of chicken legs for BBQ

7. Graham’s dislike of Spanish fire hydrants and wing mirrors

8. Graham’s demonstration that he too almost fits in size 6 Honey Birdette, give or take a bit

9. Graham’s relaxed and laid-back and selfless approach

10. Graham’s illustration of model poses - priceless

I can say, hand on heart, that Graham is one of the most genuine guys I have ever met. I consider him a trusted friend and would endorse his photo shooting trips to anyone so long as there’s always a place on it for me

100% hooked! 🤘🏻

Graham is honestly one of the nicest guys you could ever work with! Would never ever dream of pushing levels and is always kind and respectful, I’ve worked with graham on several occasions now over the years and every shoot is planned so well & really creative! Graham had invited me to his abraid trips before but due to other commitments I was unable to attend so When graham asked me to attend this trip to Spain I was over the moon I could make it! Graham had everything planned down to a T to ensure the trip ran smoothly, he had prior scouted locations to ensure the best possible experience for all the models and photographers and by him taking the time to do this we all managed to get our shots! We stayed in a beautiful villa booked by graham which was spacious and gave all the models the privacy they needed…I’d highly recommend any model beginner or experienced to work with graham & go on one of grahams trips should they have the opportunity, thank you so much for having me graham I really am looking forward to our next adventure ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had another lovely shoot with Graham at the end of last year on my studio weekend at Saracen house.

I’ve worked with Graham many times now and each is as equally as fun! Graham and I always end up half shooting and half chatting as we get along very well! However this always makes shooting with him so laid back and allows us to produce really lovely quality images.

Graham has such a fun style when it comes to his photography and I always love the images we end up with,this time was no different! Graham brought along a few cool outfits and accessories that made for great photos.

I already have another shoot planned with Graham which I’m very excited about! I would absolutely recommend shooting with Graham.

Zara Mae

Had the pleasure of working with Graham on the 4th November. Can’t recommend him enough! Very respectful / professional & kind . Loved all the images from the day & I look forward to working again with him soon.

Thank you for a great shoot 😃

I was lucky enough to get asked to go with Graham for his scouting trip to Greece with himself and another model last week.

We had a great week shooting in a number of different locations, Graham was always forthcoming with showing me the BOC so I could see what we were getting and he was always open to any suggestions on ways to better the shoot.

I really enjoyed shooting with Graham again, so much so I am delighted to be joining him for his next trip in Spain next year, yay!

Elle Baldwinson

Had a last minute shoot with Graham on Friday which turned out to be absolutely fabulous! I have worked other Graham twice before,once remotely and once in person and the images we were able to create before we’re absolutely amazing so I was super excited for this shoot!

Although we did not have any solid plans for this shoot,the images we got were fantastic! The ones I’ve seen so far I love! Graham is great to work with,he has so many ideas that he comes up with on the spot,he also is great at suggesting great fashions poses that really help to make the image! I always appreciate his input on this and trust his judgment on what could help create a good shot.

Graham is also very easy to get along with and chat to,our shoot flew by as we had a great catch-up and discussed preparations for exciting future shoots and events!

I would absolutely recommend working with Graham,he is lovely and very enthusiastic and you will not be disappointed with the images! Excited for what’s in store!

Graham kindly reached out to me following a casting and booked one of the 2-hour slots I had available at Saracen House. Graham was an absolute pleasure to shoot with and we got through a number of sets in which he provide some of his own amazing lingerie!

Graham shared his ideas before the shoot and his pre-comms were great and I have a clear idea of what the shoot would entail. Graham and I got along really well and had some great chats while shooting and it was a lot of fun!

I can't recommend him enough and am looking forward to hopefully shooting with Graham again very soon😊

I was invited by GG adventures to Spain and I'd want to say a huge thank you to Graham for having me, it was a real pleasure and also to work with him, we got some great shots and I met some incredible people in Spain, I'd gladly work with again, thank you again and I hope to be apart of the next one.

Graham was very helpful before the trip and always got back to me which is always helpful and he's eager to learn.

Would recommend and I know I've said it but again thank you so much Graham for having me.

Evalana

after years of planning we finally made it to Spain :P whoop whoop!

I had a great time with graham and the gang, everyone got incredible photos and I am so grateful to have been a part of the team.

Thank you so much graham for inviting me, for planning and organising an incredible trip and bringing us all together. Everyone got on so well, it was a real joy to be there ♥

also, I wouldn't be so close with my two fave girls Sharelle and Phi if it weren't for this trip and for that I am so happy and grateful <3

I'm sooo excited to post images from this trip, and to see more from everyone else

Thanks so much again graham,

I joined Graham on a spanish trip with a number of models and photographers. This had been planned by him some time ago but the dreaded pandemic kept shifting things each year!

Graham during this time had scouted a number of locations and secured a villa.

Despite adverse weather conditions we made the most if it and came away with a great experience some fond memories and some great memories.

This was the first time meeting Graham despite communicating with each other over the last three years, he is someone you can get on with easily and has a great deal of patience. He is great to discuss concepts with and is also willing to experiment.

I would recommend working with Graham or even joining one of his future events
