Martin is such a pleasure to shoot with. Great communication and worked hard so we could get the most out of our time together. I felt comfortable and at home immediately and having a catch-up before shooting to discuss ideas was suoer helpful. I learnt so much from our shoot and tried some new things too.

Martin also kindly showed me through his editing process and it was fascinating to see the before and afters. Martin also gave really helpful prompts when needed to get the best angles. Very kind, professional and talented. It would be an honour to shoot again :)

I had the pleasure of shooting with Martin a few days ago, After viewing his work and credentials-which are very impressive-I could see he had the skills to bring a breath of fresh air to my portfolio. His glowing references aren't lying, he is not only a talented photographer and editor, who takes his work seriously, but also a kind and respectful gentleman. He made me feel totally comfortable and at ease in his presence and we had plenty of good conversation throughout. The edits are coming through as I type and every one is beautiful as promised. He has an eye for potential in some challenging environments and he made sure I was comfortable and happy throughout. If you get the chance to work with Martin don't pass it by.

What a brilliant session we had today!

Not only that Martin is very well organised, he is pleasure to be around, very kind and charismatic, always keeps your best interests in mind.

He will show you around, makes sure to go through everything beforehand, makes you feel comfortable. He knows what he's doing, so you will get stunning images very quickly and with almost no effort. Not mentioning the amazing editing skills he has!

What an exceptional photograper. I wish every model could work with him to see how it should be done 😊

Thank you!

I had a shoot with Martin at my house today .

Having a shoot with Martin was such a privilege as he is so experienced and I adore all the pictures on his purple port site !

Martin has very warm personality and as soon as I met him I felt like I’m chatting to a good friend- it made me feel more relaxed before my shoot !

I would definitely recommend Martin as he’s truly amazing at his job 👏👏👏

We arranged a shoot with Martin at the V&A museum. It was my first time shooting there, so I was quite excited to see what images we can get

Martin is a very experienced and professional photographer. He is working quite fast, but always finds time to throw some cheeky comments in the meanwhile😁

I really enjoyed not only the shoot at this wonderful location, but also our communication. I can totally recommend Martin and hope we can work together again!

P.S. he is also very good looking

(he asked me to write so 🙊)

I've just had another wonderful shoot with Martin.

I was invited to his new home studio. Like the previous time, Martin was extremely welcoming, courteous and professional. His images are always classy and tasteful and he has a great eye for detail. Martin gives valuable feedback on the poses which I always appreciate! He asked me as well which one of my outfits I would like to shoot the most which was very kind. Images received from him are edited to the high commercial standards!

It was a great experience and I would definitely shoot again anytime!

Had my first shoot with Martin this afternoon and what a wonderful shoot it was! Communication has been great from the start and his knowledge and professionalism is second to none!

I felt so at ease shooting and we got on so well. The images were looking great on the back of camera and I cannot wait to see final edits.

Honestly the most enjoyable shoot I have had in a long time. I could not recommend Martin more if I tried. Hope to work with him again soon.

Thank you!

I had the most wonderful shoot with Martin! We had been trying to organize a shoot for a while, and at least we decided to meet at his home studio! I came to his amazing house, which is located in a very scenic place 🥰. He helped me find the place because I got a little lost and kindly assisted with my heavy bag. He was so friendly and welcoming! He made me delicious tea, and in the end of the shoot, he made a special drink for me that I really like but can't make at home🥰. Before the shoot, we had a nice chat to get to know each other better, and he explained to me what shots he wanted to achieve. All his ideas was great and i couldn't wait to recreate them! 😍. Martin gave me a couple of amazing autumn outfits that were perfect for the shoot! He has a really great taste and a sense of style, so all the outfits he chose looked 🥰

Martin is a very good photographer with professional techniques and lighting. Each of his shots is just perfect! Working with him is so easy and fun! He is very relaxed and gives me the freedom to pose and be creative. I really enjoyed the shoot because it's always great to work with such a professional! Also he cared about my comfort, was worried that i wasn't cold and tried to made me feel comfortable 🤗

What made me even more happy is that the next day, Martin sent me the photos and gave me the freedom to pick the top 5 for magazine editing! I have to say that his photos look stunning even without editing, but with editing, it's a true masterpiece 🥰. Martin is not only a really great photographer but also a very kind, friendly, and easygoing person who always tries to help and create the perfect atmosphere. I highly recommend working with him and i am very much looking forward to working with him again! Thank you so much!

Had an absolutely lovely first shoot with Martin yesterday. Pre comms were great and he traveled over to shoot me at my home

Martin is really easy to work with and chat to and the couple of hours flew by. Super respectful, and absolutely lovely

I would be more than happy to work with him again and can 100% recommend him!

I had my second shooting with Martin today and it was just a delight seeing him again and getting creative.

This time Martin came to my flat in London and we didn't take many shots, but the ones we did and I saw on the back of the camera were superb. It is hard to even find words for Martin without sounding too cheesy :-P Martin is an outstanding talented photographer and down-to-earth human being.

We literally got lost in our conversations; time was just flying.

Martin, thank you so much for working with me today. I cannot wait shooting again soon!

HIGHLY!!! recommended photographer, who will push your portfolio to a new level!

I had a wonderful shoot with Martin. Such a lovely, caring, wonderful human!

We had such a fun, productive shoot and produced many beautiful images. Martin is extremely respectful, creative and thoughtful. He picked me up from the train station and sent me home with snacks, bless him.

Thank you for looking after me, it was massively appreciated.

Highly recommended and I would 100000% shoot with Martin again!

Lovefromloula

Martin made our shoot yesterday really fun and very productive in a short amount of time.

A warm and charismatic person who is clearly passionate and talented at photography, especially for spotting sets to work with whilst walking about on location.

He knows lighting and composition, editing, and how to bring the best out of my posing.

Would I work with him again? In a heartbeat!

Truly a joy to meet and work with Martin after many many years of trying to organise a shoot,

Martin is a kind, genuine, down to earth, warm, muti talented person full of amazing stories which were really wonderful to hear, so much so, we almost forgot to shoot as we were chatting so much!!

But it's very evident from the images he is an extremely accomplished and talented photographer with a brilliant eye for detail and the ability to create beautiful images in almost any given setting.

Thank you Martin for a highly memorable day and I hope to work with you again very soon!

Best wishes

I had a fabulous second shoot with Martin.

We shot at his home, he has some lovely spaces to shoot in plus a home studio. Martin also has lots of clothing options for the shoot too, and I was lucky enough so wear one of the amazing big dresses in his collection.

Pre shoot comms we’re all great and I knew exactly what to expect.

Martin is extremely professional and I felt at ease the whole time. It was a truly fun and relaxed shoot and we created some wonderful images.

I can’t wait to shoot again.

Many thanks

Amazing!

Couldn’t recommend highly enough. Very friendly, considerate and knows exactly what he wants and how to achieve it. Hoping to work together again soon. Very professional.

Elle Kaya

Wow! Where do I start? Martin is a complete and utter professional, I felt comfortable and inspired through our shoot.

With a keen eye for detail, Martin captured tasteful images which told a story, he used our surroundings intelligently rather than just clicking the camera aimlessly.

I was utterly impressed with the images I got back, the colours popped,I felt beautiful and I’m proud to share the images on my portfolio. I could not recommend this man enough!

Birgit Lechner

I had an amazing shoot with Martin today.

He was so lovely to collect me from the train station and even treated me to a small lunch he prepared.

Before the shoot Martin showed me some ideas on his computer; he also sent me these beforehand, which was amazing to make up my own mind about it.

The shoot went very smooth.

Martin gave me great directions during each set we shot + there was always time to bring in some own ideas.

What I was really fascinated about is Martin's good eye to see what style/poses fit for my type.

In between the shooting was always enough time to chat a bit and show pictures, which created a great atmosphere I felt so comfortable working in.

Martin is an outstanding photographer with tons of experience and great skills.

I would highly recommend working with him!

Had an amazing shoot with Martin yesterday. Despite the disaster that was tube strikes we managed to sort everything out and create some amazing images. He gave great energy and conversation while staying professional and producing some stellar art. He does a great job of creating a comfortable and professional atmosphere that allowed me to be confident and creative -throw ideas around and build off each other to make the most out of the shoot. Very clear and concise when giving direction, and quick at adjusting lighting/equipment. So many photographers take forever to get there equipment to cooperate- he had everything prepared and ready to go as soon as I showed up and had a very clear vision and was knowledgeable about how to produce that vision. All around was a fantastic shoot and had so much fun working with him.
