Graham did the very long drive up to Wigan to come and shoot with me and I'm so pleased he did! We had such a great shoot, lovely guy- so easy to chat to (only sorry I got him stuck in a mudbath!) Such a fun and creative shoot, so cool to bounce ideas off each other- think we got some great stuff, really can't wait to see how they turn out-definitely recommend!

Graham made the long drive down to shoot with me at the beautiful Studland, he was friendly and chatty and made me feel very comfortable! He brought a lovely selection of clothes with him!

I am so pleased with the images they are amazing I can’t wait to shoot with Graham again and I definitely recommend him!

I had my first ever shoot with Graham last week and given the weather circumstances we created some amazing images!

Graham was such a pleasure to work with! He is so so lovely and welcoming! Very professional and easy to work around!

We was shooting in the cold and wet rain but this didn’t stop him and was happy to carry on shooting!

Thank you so much Graham for an amazing shoot and I cannot wait to work with you again!

First post-lockdown shoot and it couldn't have been better- well maybe if it was longer! It is always an absolute pleasure shooting with Graham from start to finish- so full of fun and creativity.

Before the shoot he had sent me ideas of sets and turned up to the shoot loaded with outfits which really helped bring the ideas into reality. We started with some gorgeous Hollywood portaits, then some superhero shots (so fun!), boudoir with a twist and finishing with fashion.

Loved it from start to finish- can't wait to shoot with Graham again! :)

I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Graham back in August 2019 - my second ever time shooting on location. I was immensely grateful he took the time to travel down to my local town in Somerset.

Graham was punctual and professional,with communication before hand flowing easily. He instantly put me at ease although i was nervous to begin with - but that soon subsided once we got started and i was really pleased with the images created.

Linking up with Grahem was a brilliant confidence builder for me and allowed me to feel more at ease infront of the camera. It didnt take long at all to get the images back either which is always a bonus.

Im very much looking forward to seeing him again for another shoot this summer! Definately recommended!

I have shot with graham on several occasions now, and he’s one my favorites to work with, he’s so easy to work with, he brings loads of ideas to the shoot, he creates mood board to create the best shots and even outfits he brings a long.

Graham is so professional in the photography world and you won’t be disappointed, he booked me on his trip to Spain in April with 5 other models and photographers I am over the moon to have been asked to be apart of this trip and help our organizing it.

Graham has become such a great friend to me, I highly recommend him to anyone. A*

Wowwwzerrr I had my 3rd shoot with Graham, he is one of the loveliest people you’ll ever meet, I have become such a great friend with this guy, Graham is. Professional in his photography, he’s so passionate about it & that’s when you get the best images.

We shot down at cannon hill park in Birmingham, we styled it out with various styles - everytime I shoot with Graham we laugh and laugh and laugh and that’s what it’s about! I am truly thankful graham asked me on our 1st shoot to be one of the models for his Spain trip in April & now asked me to organize it with him - he’s a great guy all round.

I can’t wait to shoot with Graham again in the new year and create more magicccc! If you haven’t shot with graham you need too!!!

Graham is on another level! I had my 2nd shoot with graham as a duo shoot with my friend Alex Shanks - graham is one of the loveliest people you’ll ever get to meet, he talks to you throughout the shoot & i’m constantly laughing because we make so many jokes & it’s just so fun to be around graham while shooting.

We capture the best shots & I loved the outcome from every shot that was taken. He’s so easy to work with & will give plenty of ideas to make the shots look amazing!

I highly recommend graham to anyone, this is why I always like to work with him.

Thanks graham xx

Everyshoot with Graham is one to remember. Our recent shoot was alot more tame and normal than usual Although it still contained wigs and fake cigarettes!

We shot a range of looks from Bad girl vibes to classy blazers and fashion. The images once again looked brilliant and some barley need retouching!

Graham is always a joy to work with. I really look forward to shooting with him again!

I met Graham in Portugal. I had never shot before, and he instantly put me at ease. He is a super person, fun and caring. As a photographer he is really great, takes care of the model and helped me learn a lot... We got an FPI on my 2nd ever day of shooting.

I would fully recommend Graham and would love to work with him again.

It has been aaaaaaages since me and Graham got to shoot together, so it was so lovely catching up with him last weekend at Nicole Rayner's Guys Cliffe event!

Graham is such a nice guy, respectful, kind and really great fun to work with! He looks after you incredibly well and also fits in to group dynamics well too :D

I'm chuffed that we got to work together again after so long and I'm in love with the images I have seen so far! Highly recommended and hope to not leave it quite so long next time :)

Wow! I worked with graham for the first time and I walked away with a massive smile on my face, the shoot went amazing, graham is one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, we connected as soon as we started shooting, I just knew it was going to be a fantastic shoot.

We laughed throughout the shoot, we created so many beautiful images! After the shoot he asked me to be one of his models for his Spain trip next year & I’m so excited to be apart of it!

I highly recommend shooting with graham! I can’t wait for our next shoot!!! A**

My second shoot with graham! And what a fabulous and fun shoot it was!

It was full excitement! I was hanging of monkey bars, blowing bubbles, posed with a HUGE lolly pop and strutted my stuff on the beach! Graham is full of ideas and super relaxed. We always get fabulous images and I love working with him!

Definitely a fabulous photographer to work with!

I had my first shoot with Graham when he was visiting Norfolk and WOW, what a wonderful shoot it was!

Communications prior were great and we went into the shoot with a good idea of what we wanted to capture, as well as playing around with ideas in the moment.

Graham has a good eye for spotting great backdrops and this made it much easier to fit in as many different sets as possible during the shoot. As well as being able to direct models to find the perfect shot, he is also able to capture candid moments beautifully. This was helped by his ability to keep a model laughing and upbeat throught by keeping great conversation and capturing the images simultaneously.

I highly recommend Graham to new and experienced models alike, and look forward to working together again.

I really enjoyed my first shoot with Graham. Not only is he a real delight to work with, but to hang out with also. He is so chilled out, funny and genuine. And his photography speaks for itself. From having me perch on beer barrels to hanging out of a two story window - Graham’s creativity never ceases to amaze me.

I’ve been friends with G since March and after seeing his incredible portfolio I knew I wanted to shoot with him. Nicole and I were lucky to have Gray come along on her trip to France. He kindly picked us up before the airport and dropped me home when we got back to the UK (thanks again Gray♥). I sang to him on the way home, it was quite an emotional ride! Never thought I’d be able to say “I made a grown man cry” hehe. Graham gives me such encouragement, he praises and supports all of my work, I feel very fortunate to have him as a colleague and even luckier to have him as a friend.

I’m very much looking forward to seeing G again next week and shooting with him again in August. Hopefully shooting with him and the gang next year on G’s trip, too!

Thanks so much for everything Gray, never stop being you!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!

Graham responded to my last minute casting call and I am so glad he did!

What a fun bubbly photographer with wacky ideas! I had a brilliant time shooting with him. We done both studio and location shots. In the studio we used a MASSIVE blow up unicorn float which definitely made the whole experience more exciting!

He’s a wonderful photographer with great ideas. He looked after me through the day and is super easy to get along with so I was very comfortable!

I recommend highly!

Another awesome shoot with Graham!

I tell you, every shoot is always enjoyable, fun, relaxed and full of laughter! Graham ensures I have a break if needed and let’s me input my own ideas. He has great ideas of his own too and know exactly what he wants to capture.

We shot some portraits using different makeup and flowers, some high end fashion looks and some casual winter fashion looks. I love the images as always and it’s great that Graham lets me have input into what images I can use.

Thanks again!!x

Wow , I dont know where to start ...

Graham unexpectedly invited myself and Pippa on a short trip to Portugal . I was free and well who doest want a bit of last minute sun ....Graham took care of all the details so I didn't have to worry about any of the usual arrangements . I just has to show up and model when required. It was very much a relaxed experience that felt like a holiday rather than a working trip . Graham did everything he could to make it an enjoyable experience for us , he couldn't have done more if he tried . I loved every minute of the trip and really enjoyed Grahsm's company , it will defiantly be a trip to remember .

Even in his photography , he is a keen bean and has a creative mind . He is happy to work as a team so that you can make images that you both adore just as much . Just as the model will go to extreme lengths to get that shot , he will too . If I wade through rocks , graham does too . I love taking back of the camera too , well my insta story for those few days were choke block , so that will tell you something .

Overall I really admired how graham run his mini trip , his work aesthetic , how he treats his models and generally just Graham as a person . Graham is one of the most genuinely lovely person ive had the pleasure of meeting/working with in this industry . I cannot express this enough .

If you have any doubt , dont . Just go and shoot with graham and you will see for yourself .
