My first shoot with Martin and what can I say ... I bloody loved it !

From the moment I arrived I was made to feel very welcome and within minutes I knew he had a very similar sense of humour as I have which was cracking.

We certainly had lots of giggles

He kindly kept me fed and watered with a selection of snacks and drinks.

We managed to get a good amount of different outfits and looks done and I will say he is a very very talented man and a absolute pleasure to work with.

Thank you for a lovely day and I can’t wait to see the final images.

I can’t recommend him enough !

What can I say about working with this gentleman?! It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish, with so much creativity and fun. I messaged orson about working together on a bit of a whim-not expecting him to say yes since I'm a fairly new model. But he was incredibly positive and kind about my work and a date was set! This man clearly has a huge amount of talent and was wonderful to work with. I recommend him unreservedly

Yet another amazing shoot with the loveliest guy! Martins work speaks for itself & I absolutely love working with this guy! He’s a pleasure to be around, it’s like catching up with an old friend every time I see him & the results are always amazing!

Couldn’t recommend enough!

Absolutely Fabulous! Very Talented photographer!

Pre-comms were great throughout. Martin was very respectful of me and of my levels and at no point did I feel uncomfortable. Martins main priority was my safety and comfort from pre-comms through to the finished images.

Upon arrival, Martin had provided a selection of drinks and snacks to keep my energy levels up throughout the day and was very polite and welcoming.

For the first half an hour, Martin focused on making sure I felt comfortable with the day's plans and using this time to get to know each other face to face(which was lovely as he had me laughing in minutes!). We discussed the day's plan in more detail going through backdrop setups, lighting and all the items of clothing and props etc we had available to us to ensure a productive and enjoyable day for both.

We worked our way through a large variety of outfits and styles, Martin was considerate throughout and regularly checked I was happy and comfortable. Martin was open to position and posture ideas and outfit ideas to enable us to work together creatively to create some amazing work. He regularly showed me on the back of the camera the images he had taken to ensure I was happy with the outcome and gave excellent direction and feedback.

Overall working with Martin was an absolute pleasure. He is a lovely respectful man, wonderful talented creative collaborator and an absolute pleasure to work with. I hope to work with Martin again in the near future.

If you get the chance to work with Martin ... jump at it!

Had an amazing shoot with Martin yesterday!

Martin kindly picked me up all the way from Bath so my journey was cheaper and shorter. There was tea, snacks, music and an amazing wardrobe; everything you could possibly need for a shoot!!

I loved all of Martins ideas and direction, I think we worked well together. Martin has so much energy (probably more than me by the end!). We definitely got loads of photos and i was very happy with them on the back of the camera.

I would love to shoot with Martin again and can't wait to see the edits :)

Another reference for the genius that is Orson Carter... Oh go on then!!

Once again I JUMPED at the opportunity to shoot with Martin. We discussed ideas before hand and I said I wanted to do something that 'Stood out!'.

Well - Shoot day came, and, what with Pink DM's, Red glasses, ripped tights, ample latex and some of the most beautiful corsets .... We certainly achieved it!! :D

I had images within 24 hours of the shoot and once again they are stunning!!

Working with Martin is like an addiction - Once you've worked with him once you have to work with him again!! (well - I do!!). He's fabulously funny, a creative genius and always brings the best snacks!!!

Cannot wait until the next one!!! :D Thanks Martin!!

OMG! I just have to begin with this word. I was so delighted that I finally get to work with Orson Carter. I have been following to see his great for a while, designed to contact him and I was over the moon when he contact me back, arranged the shoot and everything :)

I can't actually describe how good he is as you can see from his work, he is just everything the model should want and not just that. He is so friendly, fun, polite, professional, organise, easy to get along and work with and a lot more. I had an amazing day shooting with him, lots of ideas, worth driving a long way and I love all images we created. Thank you ever so much, you are a legend!!! I would definately love to work with you again :) Tish

Martin is everything a photographer should be - greatly exceeded my expectations (although his amazing reputation speaks for itself) and I've never been so spoilt on a shoot! Martin took care of everything, an amazing location, wardrobe bursting at the seams (including amazing latex and corsets on loan), food and drinks galore, music for every taste, a warm and private area for changing, I could go on and on! The shoot experience itself was fabulous. Martin has more energy than a sheep dog puppy and its contagious. Always making sure I was happy and showing me the back of the camera. I was able to pose freely but the gentle suggestions Martin made were spot on and always positive. Can't wait to shoot again! Thank You!

Martin hardly needs any more great references, but I'll write one anyway... :P

Pre-communication was perfect. Every detail from where I needed to go, to what I needed to bring was clear.

The whole day was relaxed, entertaining and productive and I love what I've seen on the camera. He gives excellent direction and clearly knows what he's doing.

You'll have no reason to feel uncomfortable with this photographer, he is professional and polite, yet easy-going, down to earth and full of 'interesting' stories!

I would highly recommend working with Martin if you have the chance. Hopefully, we will work together again in the New year! Thanks again Martin!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!

yaaaaay! finally got to shoot with the fabulous Orson Carter. I have been wanting to shoot with him ever since beginning around four years ago so when he agreed to a shoot I was buzzing! Ive always loved his style of photography and editing. I love images with power and movement and with great quirky fashion style and that is what he does best I think. He is honestly one of the nicest and most laid back guys I have ever worked with. Always making sure I was warm and that I wasn't hungry or if I wanted a coffee. It was a totally pressure free shoot. He gave me lots of positive feedback during the shoot as well which I always a nice confidence boost and I think makes you shoot better if you feel like the photographer is loving the images. Lots of opportunities to look at the BOC to see how I look and how the images where coming out. I was also left in charge of creating the outfits out of what I brought but also the huge amount of stuff he brought along. I mean wow I thought I had a lot of outfits! The images he sent me where just amazing and everything I thought they would be. When I am next down in the area I will for sure be back in touch with him to organise another shoot. Work with Orson carter if you want amazing images for your portfolio …. that's all I can say! thanks a million!

My first shoot with Martin, and what an absolute pleasure. I was taken away with his amount of props, clothing and accessories. Pre communications prior to the shoot were brilliant, he provided an amazing lunch, and I don't think we stopped talking all day! Martin is a very talented photographer and I am so happy I have had the opportunity to work with him. He provides so much energy and to a shoot. Thank you again Martin, very excited to see the finished results and working with you again soon.

Kind regards Hannorah 🙂

Totally honoured to have this amazing photographer in my studio and what a lovely guy he is. Martin brings so much energy and fun to his shoots along with great concepts of what he wants to achieve. He knows how to get the best from the area he is working with along with the right lighting to make a statement. He is fabulous with the models, along with being totally respectful of them, you cannot help but warm to him straight away. Amazing to watch him work and can’t wait to see him again. Please, please, please if you get the change to work with him then don’t hesitate!

I finally met Martin 2 days ago and what I can say is that it is on my top list of all my modelling experience!

Pre-shoot communication was absolutely spot on!

Martin brought a huge selection of outfits and props including latex and a corset dress made by a designer. We've shoot a serie of different sets, all very fun and creative. I've really enjoyed each of them. Working with him was a real teamwork. On the top of that Martin is as you can see so talented but also very professional, polite, friendly and... NUTS (in a good way) hahaha :-D and I love people like that, trust me he made my day!

Such an amazing experience! If you have the chance the work with this fabulous photographer well just go for it, you won't regret it. Thank you so much, Martin, for this incredible opportunity you gave me :) Of course, 100% recommended!

He's brilliant with the models too and just a really nice guy to be around. looking forward to his next visit. Definitely recommend working with him if you are lucky enough to get a chance.

Well, how could I refuse when Martin asked me up for another shoot at his studio.

Having worked with Martin a few times now he NEVER disappoints!!

We bounced ideas back and forth and his expertise shone through when I asked him to light a pose that I wanted to try.

I had edits from the shoot within 24 hours and I honestly cannot pick a favourite!!!

I very much think I'll be back to work with this incredible man very soon!!!!! :)
