Had an absolutely fantastic first shoot with Martin yesterday alongside my model mates and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Martin was extremely organised and all communications were clearly detailed. I found him to be friendly, respectful, professional and all round top bloke. I was equally impressed with the fact that Martin takes great pride in his photography with creative ideas and attention to detail which is clearly highlighted in his work. Not to mention the cool outfits he kindly let us have. Martin gets my upmost recommendation and thank you once again for a great day. Very much look forward to next time.

Martin attended mine and Annie Moyas duo day at DenvyStar studios! What a time we had! Martin kindly picked up is from the station which was a huge help!

We clicked straight away! The chat never stopped! Martin is a lovely guy who makes him models feel comfortable! The shoot was very relaxed and we just went with whatever ideas can to us - all three of us chipping in different ideas throughout the shoot!

Thank you again Martin! Comes teccomendreccomend from me.

First off apologies for the slight delay leaving this reference as I've been abroad most the last month :(

I had another superb shoot with Martin on my last tour of Yorkshire!! As always he is fun to be around and is more than happy to take on ideas from the models. Paired up with the lovely Keira Lavelle too was already going to be a crackers day, but we had so many laughs and so many shots, it was truly an awesome day!

One not to be forgotten in a hurry and can't wait to shoot with him again in the future!

Highly recommended :D

My millionth, trillionth shoot with Martin, there's a reason I work with him so much.

The shoots are always fun, never a dull moment, lots of laughing and he is incredibly respectful at all times. He really looks after his models, also bringing some beautiful items to wear and is kind enough to let you keep them afterwards too.

Just a true gent and someone I always look forward to working with :)

Had a great shoot today with martin on my studio day at yorkshire studios.

Martin was great fun to work with, he was full of enthusiasm and did some interesting lighting set ups, looking forward to seeing the images and working together again!

Highly recommended!

I worked with Martin on a duo day up North with Rachelle Summers and was met with a whirlwind of energy, jokes and mad ideas!

Martin likes to just go with the flow on the day and let the models pose freely- with the odd bit of direction. he is easy to work with- and likes smiles! :)

Martin brought along some props for us to use and wear and the time did go quickly. I particularly liked the mono 'in the clutter shots' as they felt quite quirky and unusual.

Thank you, Martin :)

Another super shoot with Martin :D

As always he comes well prepared knowing what he wants to shoot, and this time we had a lot of fun shooting amongst a load of clutter in the studio and getting a few quirky shots, which I can't wait to see once finished :D

He's always very respectful and treats his models very well, overall lovely person to be around and look forward to seeing him next time :D

Highly recommended!

I have just had such a wonderful shoot with martin at my studio day at Yorkshire studios today ..

martin was early and eager to start and im literally so glad I got to shoot with this lovely man today x

martin bought a few clothes he wanted me to wear and he came prepared with ideas and too be honest two hours really didn't seem long enough .......

martin had a wicked sense of humour and I found myself laughing and having a thoroughly fab time ...

martin is very professional , certainly knows his lighting and is very considerate of the model .

I highly recommend martin to anyone looking to work with him and I hope I get the opportunity to work with this adorable man again x

I have lost count of how many times I have shot with Martin now. Every one is so much fun and the images seem to get better and better every time. :D

Martin is a really kind, friendly person who makes sure the models feel comfortable throughout the shoot and also have fun too.

Full of ideas and he buys stunning lingerie/outfits for the shoots too and even kindly gives some of them to the model :)

The last shoot, the images were STUNNING, i haven't seen them all yet but they were gorgeous!

He knows what he's doing with the lighting sets up and the ideas just flow between us.

Highly recommended and it is always a real pleasure working with him.

Thank you Martin, sorry it's so late!

Still giddy and ecstatic about the shoot before our last... And then we go and have another fantastic one! Talk about getting more and more productivity out of each other the more shoots you have, and we very nearly didn't meet as it was totally on the off chance in passing at a studio Christmas event. Martin was leaving and I was arriving! :D

We used to have a set order to shoot all the ideas but it's very typical of us to go off on a complete tangeant now and throw all manner of random suggestions at each other! From a models point of view, it makes a huge bucket of difference to feel like you have turned up for a booking but given your input as well to get the best out of the session as two people working together to make epic images. When ever Martin fires new shoot plans at me in the pre-shoot communications I'm hyper about it until we get it shot! The only downside is how quick things go, as always we got thoroughly into one set... and then another and before you know it: 4 hours, over like the click of a shutter! The funny thing is that each shoot we do goes quicker and quicker because i just enjoy working with Martin more and more!

MARTIN IS A LEGEND!!!! period. :)

I have worked with Martin a few times over the last couple of years, but have to say my most recent shoot was my favourite to date!

Martin always brings along a variety of props and outfits, but this time he really outdid himself! Bringing a full moulin rouge style outfit that was fantastic and so much fun to shoot in!

We got through several different sets and I'm really happy with what we achieved! He is such a lovely, genuine and friendly character and it's truly a pleasure working with him :)

Looking forward to next time!

Highly recommended :)

Another truly wonderful shoot with my good friend Martin. As always communication was perfect up to the shoot and we had chatted about some of the stuff we'd be covering.

As soon as I got to the studio we had a chat and a cuppa and got to shooting. The first set that we did was in my normal clothes that I arrived in, I love that Martin does this, going for some natural, happy images. After this we both put different ideas together, and captured some fab images which I love, thank you.

My shoots with Martin are always sooo much fun, he always makes me laugh from the start of the shoot right till the end (even when he doesn't mean to haha). You couldn't ask for a more kind, lovely, genuine person to work with.. And cracking images too.

Thanks so much and see you soon,

Amy xx

I really enjoyed todays shoot with MRB! he was very professional from start to finish and he was a pleasure to work with. The studio was great (and warm!) with lots of different sets, I used the black backdrop mainly but I had my eye on the shower set which quite big with two showers, I am definitely going to be using it next time we shoot hehe.

I am really looking forward to working with him again and would recommend him to every model!

Finally, after bumping into Martin for the first time just before Christmas, I got the chance to shoot with him last week at Yorkshire Studio's. Worth the wait? You can bet on it 100%! 4 hours never did go so quickly, but the beauty of shooting with Martin was that we combined producing stunning results in with delightful banter and laughs from the very beginning... who ever said photographers cannot multitask needs to get themselves in front of his lens! :)

The communications from Martin before the shoot where just tip top - because he knows exactly what he wants with his model shoots you can relax and plan accordingly the day before as the props he brings to use are just bursting with innovation! Between us we had the best possible shoot-off weighing up ideas and styles, the whole afternoon just kept on bringing productivity. Here is a photographer that, by the end of our first shoot, I felt like I had known and worked with any times for years - the way he captures the natural beauty says it all. His eyes can see the opportunities instantly.

He has an absolute heart of gold with manners that shine. :) I was totally at ease (most of the time giggling at our conversations!) from the moment I walked into the studio. The respect Martin shows to his models is Platinum. Period! I will most definitely be leaping at the chance to organise a second wonderful shoot with him and cannot recommend him highly enough. :)

Thanks again Martin!

Each shoot I have with Martin just gets better and better. I worked with Martin most recently a few days ago and it was so much fun and such an enjoyable shoot. We shot some different styles this time and worked through some different looks.

There was a shot in particular that I was keen to get and Martin really went out of his was to help achieve the shot, luckily there were no injuries ;) I do really appreciate this Martin.. and I love how the shot turned out.

Couldn't ask for a more lovely, kind photographer and friend to shoot with.

Thanks so much and looking forward to our next shoot,
