I recently shot with Martin at a gym in Birmingham.

His pre comms were great and knew what he wanted to achieve from the shoot.

Martin is great at direction and knows how to get the perfect shot!

He explained everything he was doing too which helped with poses. Would definitely work with him again and highly recommend

I worked with Martin on a group shoot with two other models and a mix of photographers. As busy as he is as a talented high-in-demand photographer, he was great in guiding me to what he needed before and during the shoot, making me feel included throughout, and we made some awesome black and white documentary style shots together. He's an outgoing but professional guy.

I worked with Martin today at a charity shoot for the first time.

I found Martins eye for detail, experience on lighting, positioning and ideas to capture excellent images a welcome pleasure.

I enjoyed being directed when needed but also posing without direction too.

Martins was funny as well as an experienced tog with a wealth of knowledge and experience.

Couple of the edits sent through are incredible!

I would highly recommend.

Had a lovely workshop with Artofillusion_photography on Friday evening during my recent modelling Tour to Birmingham at my hired apartment run by Martin who was tutoring Ian and Paul.

Prior to shooting Martin was really good at communicating and explaining what the workshop entailed and everything was super easy to organise.

On the day of shooting everyone arrived promptly and we all had a good chat together which put me at ease as this was my first time meeting them all. We shot some lovely outfits and Martin was really good at directing the shoot, helping the photographers with camera settings and helping me with some poses as well. Martin was also really good at lighting arrangements too.

The shoot ran smoothly and Martin made sure that both Ian and Paul had enough time to each get a good variety of shots of me.

We all had such a blast the four of us and time flew by as we shot so many fantastic looks! More than recommended what a fun workshop :)

I had my first shoot with Martin when I was touring in Birmingham and hopefully we will be able to work together again in the future. :)

Martin was a real pleasure to work with! He was a mentor on our shoot and was directing one of his students who came with him to shoot me.

It was such an amazing experience working with 2 photographers, especially when they're both such nice & fun people :)!

Although Martin wasn't taking any pictures, I could tell he was incredibly knowledgeable about photography, lighting and poses. He was so easy-going, relaxed and down to earth. I felt really comfortable around him as well as with the other photographer :)

I enjoyed that shoot so much and I hope we can do it again! :))

Thank you so much Martin and can't wait to work with you again! :)
