I had the pleasure being invited to an event at Martin's studio and it was a really good experience for me. Martin is exceptional at communication and is always super professional. As soon as I arrived, he made me feel very comfortable and made me laugh constantly throughout the evening. I would highly recommend working with Martin!

Martin exemplifies professionalism in photography. He is an exceptional individual, always willing to assist, and maintains a positive and supportive attitude that ensures everyone feels included.

His photographic work is truly impressive; a glance at his extensive portfolio reveals a remarkable collection of stunning images.

I wholeheartedly endorse him and his photography services to both novice and experienced photographers and models alike. You can expect to receive excellent care and attention.

Another super event run by Martin with - Photography Holidays Abroad.

This was my third trip to Albufeira Portugal with the group (which speak volumes in itself) based in a super villa, swimming pool, nice rooms and space to relax and enjoy.

The events I have been on with Martin have always been well run, well organised and professional. Plus of course so much fun, productive and with a great bunch of people (photographers and models). Which is so important to a successful event.

The models have been first rate, very different in their looks, styles and outfits that they bring. Making the photography really good for getting a wide variety of choice, with beauty, styling, ranging from bikini, to lingerie, to fashion to art nude. Thereby covering abroad spectrum of photographic opportunities and compositions. Plus in a number of different locations.

Martin in every way is a Professional photographer, is a great guy, very helpful, positive, supportive in making sure everyone is involved.

His photography speaks for itself, just look at the wealth of super images in his portfolio.

I can highly recommend Him and Photography Holidays Abroad to any photographer of Model new of experienced. You will be well looked after.

I mean what can I say that I haven’t already said about this man?! I have known Martin now for over 15 years! And what a friendship we have built. I never get tired of shooting with him, and the most recent one was 2 weeks in Portugal!

Firstly, Martin - he is one of the most sweetest guys I’ve met, he always looks after you, keeps you comfortable, carries your bags when you are out on location!

Turning to his photography - Well I think his portfolio speaks for itself!! He has a great eye for photography and he knows exactly what he wants from the shoot, ensuring the outfits fit the specific locations we were shooting in etc.

We create magic together! It also helps that our style of photography/model is very similar, so it’s a very smooth collaboration :)

I’ve already seen a handful of images from the trip and I LOVE them! Can’t wait to see the rest :)

If you haven’t shot with Martin yet … GET ON IT NOW! You will definitely not regret it, the images you will receive and the friendship you will gain, worth it :)

Thank you again for a brilliant 2 weeks shooting, counting down the days for our next shoot soon :)

Martin got me into modelling just under two years ago and I can honestly say it was the best decision of my life. I’ve known Martin for over ten years, so I count him as family at this point - he is so passionate about his photography. I had the pleasure to be back in the Algarve for the second time on the Photography Holidays Abroad trip that Martin organises. I also shot with Martin over there and it was such a positive experience, Martin guided me through from the first year to the second to make sure I got the best images I could in the Algarve. Martin made me feel at ease as soon as I was in front of the camera and made me feel so relaxed, he is always up for a laugh and very professional. Makes sure you have a break when needed and gives amazing direction. Collaborating with him is always so easy, fun and has the best attention to detail. He has created outstanding photos that I cannot wait to share in the future, would highly recommend and I cannot wait to shoot with him again. He is a blessing for new and experienced models alongside his studio hires and wedding business. Would highly recommend, see you on the 2nd November Martin 😊

Well, what can I say about Martin that I haven’t already said!

I have known Martin now for over a decade, and I can honestly say he is a true friend and an awesome photographer!

I feel 100% comfortable shooting with Martin, he makes me feel at ease and is super friendly too.

My most recent shoot with Martin was in Budapest, and we created AMAZING images! Martin knows exactly what he wants from his images, and we both have the same eye and the same attention to detail when we shoot.

Thank you for yet another amazing shoot Martin, look forward to shooting with you again very soon! xx

I always enjoy working with Martin, and was so excited to be asked to model for his Wales day this year alongside Pebbles.

He organised the day so well, ensuring everyone was comfortable with the rocky routes we ended up going, always checking in that us models were happy, and keeping everyone time checked so all photographers got their equal shooting time, all while shooting himself!

Martin's creativity, organisation, ideas, professionalism and kindness are so welcoming.

I wholeheartedly recommend working with Martin and hope it won't be too long until the next!

Thank you again :)

I’ve been shooting with Martin for nearly a whole year now and honestly if it was t for Martin scouting me out for Modeling I wouldn’t have found something I love so much and am so passionate about doing. Such an amazing man. Martin not only takes amazing photos he’s very respect when it comes down to the models he works with and becomes a friend for life. I had an amazing opportunity to travel to Budapest with martins work shop (holidays abroad) I felt safe the whole time, had a good laugh and met some amazing people. Martin made it where there was no work pressure even tho working there as a model he made it feel like you was away with friends. Martin sticks to the levels you tell him you are at and well I could go on all in all I couldn’t recommend him enough ! Also his Wednesday group studio nights if your a photographer or model and looking for a change hit Martin up! always an amazing bunch and is always a good vibe in his studio ! Xx

I finally got to work with Martin at Hampson street studio club night. I have admired many of Martin’s images for a while now so it was a pleasure to finally shoot with him! Martin’s pre coms were great and he was so helpful from start to finish! I had a lovely time!

Aurora CHEN

It's really a pleasure working with Martin! He contacted me for a group shoot and arranged everything perfectly. I felt really welcomed and comfortable when I was in his studio. Definitely recommend!

Where to start... Martin messaged me out of the blue on Facebook to involve and introduce me to the modelling world. edgy at first about the whole thing but figured what's life without risk as I was unsure it was genuine (so many weirdos out there these days). got to Martin's studio and I felt so welcomed. Martin has and is helping me so much with understanding and becoming a part of the modelling industry. So glad I took him up on his offer to get involved.

For anyone who hasn't yet had a shoot with Martin I highly recommend you do! Very professional,understanding,friendly and of course most importantly makes an AMAZING brew !☕

Thanks again Martin for everything I can't wait for our next shoot, kelsea 😊xx

Michelle Kiara

I had a group shoot that was organised by Martin, and it was a good workshop. Martin is very professional, and he was guiding everyone during the shoot professionally. I recommend working with Martin

Pebbles

Martin and I shot again today, and it was just as awesome as any other photoshoot we have done!

I have known Martin now for over a decade, he is a dream to work with! We have the same eye for images, our ideas sync together and we create amazing images each and every time!

He makes a bloody good brew, and the shoot was just full of laughter.

Thank you for another amazing shoot Martin, look forward to shooting with you again xx

I've known Martin for a long time and decided this was the right time to start modelling, the first person I wanted to shoot with was Martin himself.

I had the pleasure to shoot for the first time properly in the Algarve on the Photography Holidays Abroad trip with Martin and it was such a positive experience. Martin made me feel at ease as soon as I was in front of the camera and made me feel so relaxed, he is always up for a laugh and very professional. He gives amazing direction and helps create your ideas as well. Collaborating with him was so easy and fun.

He has created outstanding photos that I cannot wait to share in the future, would highly recommend and I cannot wait to shoot with him again. He is a blessing for new and experienced models, definitely get booked in with him!

He organises the Photography Holidays Abroad trip every year and he makes sure everything is organised to a T, always looks out for everyone on the trip and just a truly amazing person!

Thanks again Martin - T 😊

Where do i even start with Martin?

I am new to this site and recieved a message of Martin on Day 1, inviting me to a Networking type Photoshoot at his beautiful studio - Hampson Street Studios.

Being new to the industry, and suffering with anxiety, this was definitely a first and out my comfort zone. Out my comfort zone why? Martin made me welcome, confident, at ease and had a laugh from the absolute moment he met me at the door. He really is a wonderful character, very skilled businessman and amazing behind his camera.

Martin offered me complimentary drinks, cakes and even a mcdonalds throughout and after the shoot, which is just honestly lovely and gave me some energy to keep going🫶🏼

Martin has amazing communication throughout and is extremely supportive and i have already arranged future shoots with Martin and will forever be in touch with him. Martin has also helped keep me safe on this website with being new and im so grateful for you!

He also slipped £20 into my pocket to cover my travel costs and directed me to a petrol station on the way home. Absolute legend and a pleasure to meet and work with you all.

Thanks again so very much - love Kay! X

Martin, what can I say and where do I start!?

What an absolute legend. Martin is one of the most genuine, down to earth, kind and wonderful humans I’ve been lucky enough to work with in my modelling career so far.

Martin organises Photography Holidays Abroad events and I was privileged enough to be asked to go on their Portugal trip this year. What an epic experience this was!

Not only was it an amazing way to get some unique and awesome shots, I have made so many wonderful friends and memories along the way.

Martin organised everything down to a T.

Every little detail was covered keeping us in the loop and updated every step before the trip. Whilst on the trip, Martin was so friendly, approachable, kind and caring- he couldn’t do enough for all of us models or the togs on board too. Not only a glorious human being, Martin is a super talented photographer and captured some stunning shots!! I am over the moon with the images I’ve seen so far.

Martin, it’s been an honour. Thank you so much! You are awesome.

Well what can I say about Martin that hasn't already been said!? The word EPIC comes to mind :)

Martin and I have known eachother now for over 12 years, and each and every shoot is full of laughter and epic images! We recently spent a week shooting in Portugal and the images are amazing! I cannot wait to share them with you all.

Martin is such a friendly guy. forever looking after you, and is such a laugh during shoots.

Martin has an amazing creative eye, and the images he is able to create are just top tier! We have already made a date for another shoot in the near future, so cannot wait to see what we can create again :)

If you ever get chance to work with Martin, DO IT! DO NOT MISS OUT! You will not be disappointed, his portfolio and references speak for him.

Look forward to shooting again soon :)

I had the wonderful expereince of working with Martin on his Photography Holidays organised trip to the Algarve.

I was honoured to work with such a down to earth, easy going, professional photographer. The minute I met Martin, I knew what a sweet soul he was and instantly felt comfortable around him - which is all you can ask for! He always ensured that us models were looked after, accomodated for and always felt 100% during a shoot. The pre-comms were great, sending a breakdown of what is to be expected on each day and outfit choices.

He is so easy to get along with - shooting with him was extremely enjoyable and I loved every minute of it. He has such a great eye for the shots and always puts 100% effort in when shooting together.

I could not have asked for a better photographer to spend the week with - hosting the event and ensuring everyone and everything was under control, while maintaining a professional standard - but also making it fun, enjoyable and cracking jokes.

I would highly recommend working with Martin and I cannot wait to shoot together again! Thanks for an amazing experience that I will never forget!
