I booked Graham for a camera club event because several members recommended him, having worked with him before. He certainly did not disappoint. He went above and beyond, starting early and modelling a uniform for members as they arrived. He then worked well with all of the 13 members who attended, in small groups, with multiple outfit changes and plenty of ideas and advice. He is clearly committed to helping everyone get the best images he can, and has the knowledge and experience to do this effectively both as a model and photographer.

I worked with Graham for the third time today at his studio in Manchester to work on even more character portraits and to continue filming for his instructional videos on how to photograph males.

We’d initially discussed shooting for about 2-3 hours but due to working so well together, the time absolutely flew and before we knew it, we’d effortlessly jumped from character to character and ended up spending the full day in the studio.

Graham is a professional in every capacity but one of his best qualities has to be his attention to detail when capturing the perfect scene as he will go above and beyond to make sure all the finer details are correct.

I would happily recommend working with Graham and I guarantee you’ll have a fantastic time with superb results throughout.

I worked with Graham for the first time today at his studio in Manchester were we spent a very fun few hours working on some character portraits and creating some instructional videos too.

Graham is someone who’s name had come up in conversation quite a few times as someone who I should work with and unsurprisingly, we hit it off straight away thanks to his professional, friendly, helpful, easy going and creative approach to photography.

I had full disposal of Graham’s costumes and props which meant that we wasted no time in capturing some excellent shots in the studio and on the streets of the city too.

The time flew ridiculously quick, I don’t think I’ve ever enjoyed a photoshoot as much as I have this one and I would whole heartedly recommend working with Graham in any of his talented capacities.

Absolutely superb model, fabulous array of costumes, highly intuitive as to what I needed.

He was also extremely informative on how to best make use of the fabulous setting we had access to.

I have no qualms about recommending him, he's professional and thorough.

JFYP Studio

A super Joker themed shoot at the studio - starred Graham as a very cool and authentic Joker. Graham certainly gives 110% to his shoots, his makeup and outfit was impeccable and his understanding of poses, lighting and how to look best was invaluable to the photographers there on this studio day (including me!). Not his first visit to the studio, but each time he comes, it is fresh, exciting and a pleasure. He shall be returning soon as the Joker again as well as a few other themed studio days. Highly recommended. :-)

This was my first time working with Graham as my model. We did various Portrait styles and achieved loads of variety. Pre Shoot comms were excellent and Graham worked very hard to get me the shots I was aiming for.

Graham is very easy to work with and gave fantastic input into the shoot which was much appreciated. I would highly recommend Graham and look forward to working with him again in the near future :)

Second Remote shoot with Graham, but shot f2f prior to lockdown and what can be said of Graham is that his turn of Characters is second to none, his knowledge is amazing that both Beginner through to Pro would come away with a full bank of images along with the knowledge of how they got them too.

I did one of my first remote shoots with Graham, and consider this one of the best I have experienced. I had communicated the concepts I wanted to do, and Graham had prepared a special set to make this happen, all with plexiglass and raindrops, the whole concept. Working with Graham is pretty amazing as he immediately grasps what you want to accomplish, and then goes and takes it a step further. He's a talented actor with great personality. A very kind person too. I have 2 award winning images from this shoot, that's a pretty awesome result, I'd say! Wholeheartedly recommended!

Had a remote shoot with Graham tonight. Really good pre communication, Graham had it all set up for first idea I had and was always offering ideas as well as mine and nothing was too much for him. Really happy with images, highly recommend him.

Seeing as this shoot was my first professional shoot of the year, I arrived for my shoot with Graham a tad nervous on how the day would play out. Thankfully all my nerves were laid to rest as not only was Graham a complete professional but gave me alot of great advice for not only the shoot in question but for future shoots down the line.

I would highly recommend Graham to anyone looking to add top of the line photos to their portfolio

Graham was booked for a camera club photo shoot of approx 15 people. His comms upfront were very clear and helpful, coming up with several styles and clothing ideas in readiness. We agreed on Graham bringing his own lighting equipment which he did and this was ideal for the shoot. He started the shoot by talking to the members about the lighting setup, explaining how it affected the images to be taken.

Throughout Graham was professional, helpful, approachable and shared useful information readily. He comes very highly recommended.

My first shoot with Graham last week. He is a talented model, with masses of creativity. He is charming and helpful. Turned out with all the right clothing. He works with little direction, but is open to suggestions, and in turn can help and improve images for the photographer.

He comes highly recommended, and I'd love to work with him again in the future.

I had the great pleasure of working with Graham on a small group shoot at JFYP studio. We covered some uniform outfits and a bit of Peaky Blinders look. Great fun. Had plenty of time within the shoot to work 121 with Graham and got lots of great images. What was good was that not only can he model and hit the right poses for the looks, he's got great character appreciation, plus he is also a photographer so completely understands angles, light and composition making it really easy to get the most out of a shoot. More than happy to recommend, thanks very much Graham and please keep in touch....need some of that Viking in my portfolio, best wishes, Ian

Great shoot with this chap recently. Graham comes perfectly attired with plenty of experience on both sides of the camera and tons of ideas to bounce around. Between us, we made the most of a little stretch of Manchester and turned the most unlikely spots into some great shooting locations.

Graham was a pleasure to work work with and a real gent. Definitively looking forward to another session in the future.

I regard Graham as a fellow highly skilled photographer and circuit judge but also a friend. I've been delighted to see Grahams interest in acting overlap into his acting and inevitably prompt him to model as well. I've alsway found the best models can also act - after all it's often about getting into character to tell a story in a single image.

Graham and I had been mulling over a few concepts for a while afinally we agreed on a date to work on one of them. He turned up on time (early in fact) with a range of suits and props. The shoot went incredibly smoothly and was done and dusted in no time. I'm pleased with the images and will be pleased to add them to my portfolio.

This is the first of many collaborations I'm sure Graham and I will be working on and I'd recommend him to any photographer, studio or model.

Thanks Graham
