I had the pleasure of shooting with Orson and Miss Pixie for my first duo shoot.

The precomms were fantastic, Orson provided all the necessary information on the initial response to my casting call. All of the following messages up to, and after, the shoot have been brilliant as well.

The shoot itself was really fun, lots of cake breaks, a fridge filled with snacks for us all, and a range of music to listen to as we 'worked'

There was an enormous amount of clothes and accessories available to use as well. Meaning you could shoot pretty much any style you could want to!

I will certainly be taking the trip back to work with Orson again. (Especially after he drove me 2 hours back home when my car broke down!)

100% recommended!

Third shoot with Martin. I love shooting with Martin as it’s like meeting up with an old friend who is so warm and welcoming. Pre-coms are great and surprising as he is so busy and in such demand.

Martin is very organised and gives you plenty of freedom with posing ideas and flexibility with any mad cap plans that may pop into ones head.

We had a great laugh trying out ideas and when I was fighting to get the latex dresses on it was just hilarious. All that could be heard from my dressing room was squelching and snapping and giggling. I swear those dresses wear you not the other way around. 😀.

We got through many outfits and time, as usual, slipped away and before we knew it the day was over.

Such a nice man as well as darned good at what he does. He is, as ever, highly recommended.

Thank you for another magical day.

I had another great shoot with amazing Orson. I dont have enough words to describe how much i enjoy working with him. Before each shoot I get so excited and I count days till I will work with Orson. He is just AWESOME.

Thank you so so much for another great shoot, amazing photos and great company. Said it before but if I could, I would shoot with you every day.

Highly recommended.

Anyone who has met this dude will know exactly what I mean when I say legend! The coolest guy with bundles of personality and undoubtably brings fun to any shoot. Maybe this is why I come back and work with him time and time again. Without a shadow of doubt one of my faves who i could never tire of working with. On top of this his images are super cool and no one nails Orson style like Orson himself!! Always love trekking up and working with him and getting a traditional selfie usually with him wearing something totally random and hilarious!

If you ever get the chance of working with him I strongly advise you not to miss the chance. It’s shoots like these that make me love my job!!

Thank you orson for yet another amazing and slightly crazy day. You rock!

I would highly recommend working with Orson. Not only was our shoot hilarious, which made me feel so comfortable to be there. But the images are fantastic. We got a lot done throughout the day. Many ideas flowing. And was all round FANTASTIC. Great photographer, lovely atmosphere. And great music taste!

Had an amazing shoot today with Martin! It's been about 4 years since we last shot and I'm so glad we had the chance again today, we deffo shouldn't had left it so long!

Martin is one of the most genuine, lovely and respectful people that I've ever worked with and his photography skills are second to none!

He always has tons of awesome ideas and is happy to let you try your own thing as well as giving direction too.

We shot with some amaze late from a designer and I cannot wait to see the shots.

Thanks so much! Couldn't recommend any more!

Martin is without a doubt one of my favourite photographers. Not only is his work amazing he’s also the most lovely man. He’s friendly and welcoming and so funny.

He’s great at communicating before and after the shoot and always very quick to edit the photos and send them back.

He always insists on getting food and drinks in for the shoot and makes sure I’m happy and comfortable throughout the shoot.

I love the photos, i really enjoyed the shoot and feel honoured to have got to work with him on its.

can’t wait to work with him again.

Thank you for another amazing day :-)

I had a fantastic shoot with Martin. The whole experience was brilliant from start to finish. The information he provided prior to the shoot was excellent, with detailed ideas, images of props and information about the day all being given in good time.

He has a wide range of outfits and accessories and despite what he says has a good eye for what works well.

He's very funny, relaxed and professional. His direction is subtle but exact and I felt very at ease.

Despite the extreme weather conditions, he was prepared to carry on with the shoot and fed and watered me well. Edited images were sent to me in record time and are fantastic. I'm so pleased, it's been a fantastic experience. Thank you so much.

Martin approached me for a collaboration about 6 months ago, luckily he was very understanding when I told him I was super busy at that time. When my schedule cleared up, planning our collab went smoothly! Martin gave me a say in model choice and I send him three latex outfits to use on the various planned shoots. I'm in love with the results! The styling, colours, variety! Great images :)

Thanks so much Martin!

So ....again I got the absolute privilege to spend the day with Martin x. This guy is a legend at drinking tea , talking and using the most amazing self made lighting set up lol ...oh and his images aren't too bad either x. Ha ha ha

Honestly I had such a great day shooting latex for dazzled designs, corsets for Jem corsets and bondage cuffs for pink pony x.

Martin really does look after you , I'm always cold so he made sure I had a heater following at my heels everywhere x

Again he is highly recommended by me and I am genuinely honoured I was asked to shoot with him again x

Looking forward to the next one Martin. Lol. ...don't think you can have a rest. Get thinking on some ideas. Lol

I worked with Martin last week and I must say what an incredible experience. He works at a grate pace and His personality really made the shoot for me. Such a bubbly, creative and enthusiastic person to work with. I’m incredibly impressed with our results and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Infact I’m already trying to arrange a second shoot.

I recommend people from all levels to work with this incredible photographer 😄 his work if so different from what I have done before and I’m so happy with the results I got

We think this was our 10th shoot together and if you read my previous references you’ll see that it’s not just the wagon wheels that keeps me coming back. I love working with Orson Carter - indoor or outdoor, I think we make a great team.

We always have lots of fun, ideas are constantly flowing and he’s such a gentlemen and great company.

It’s well known that Orson is a genius when it comes to lighting, his eye for a shot is outstanding and he’s remarkably good on styling too - yesterday’s shoot included a lot of fashion nude and lingerie, and his input and suggestions are always spot on...

In short, I highly recommend working with Orson Carter as you’ll have a great experience on the day and guaranteed beautiful images...I look forward to our next shoot in the New Year :)

Finally managed to pin down a date with this gentleman! 😃

Pre and post shoot comms are perfect, we knew exactly what we were doing on the day, and maybe threw in a few last minute ideas.

He is so very enthusiastic and such a perfect gentleman throughout. It was an absolute joy to work with him.

I had a pleasure to shoot with Orson once again and it was awesome fun! Orson is very organised and we maintain flow with inspiration all day... there was many ideas and many great shots taken ... It's always a pleasure to work with Orson, among side his lovely personality he is always happy to hear and shoot model ideas as well as contributing any own inspirations ...that is called a team work - crucial with achieving fantastic images :)

He is 100% professional during the shoot and wonderfully skilled in using lightning which always benefits model and image as whole.

Was lovely to work with Orson again and would happily meet and shoot with him again.

Recommendation 100%!

Thank you Orson for great time :)

Now, this was a shoot I had been looking forward to for a long time, and today couldn’t have gone any better! Martin is an incredibly talented photographer - very friendly and chatty, and he instantly made me feel at ease, enabling us to capture some wonderful images together.

Martin offered lots of ideas for poses that he knew would work well with the lighting style he had set up, but was also more than happy to take on board my ideas and incorporate them into our shoot as well.

Time just flew by and we completed a myriad of different sets, with really pleasing results; Martin made it quite clear when he was happy with a particular shot, which was really lovely and very encouraging.

Without a doubt, Martin comes highly recommended and we’re already looking to shoot together again!

Thank you for an amazing shoot! :)
