References for Sir Grolfe

Eventually, after playing shoot-date tennis for what seemed like a lifetime, I finally got the opportunity to shoot with Steve. Sir Grolfe's port had impressed me for some time, so I was super keen to meet and shoot with him.

I was drawn to the rawer nature of the images within his port, which seemed to bring out the model's personality, and I was interested in how we would work together. In short, I was super impressed; Steve has a genuine passion not just for image-making but for people too, and as such, he made me feel super comfortable, bringing out a side that resulted in such a cool vibe that deffo brought something fresh to my port.

100% recommend Sir Grolfe, and hopefully, it won't be too long before we shoot again.

PS If you are into details, comms were on point too!

Worked with him about 4/5 times now (I've lost count)

Always a pleasure to work with and gives clear direction if you require direction.

Always a friendly face and you will relax around him very easily within 15 minutes, which is a very rare thing.

Always makes it clear what is going on and what will happen so you won't have any unexpected surprises.

Easily recommended for anyone and everyone.

I always love working with Steve.

This was our second shoot working together. He is always prepared, friendly, professional and open to ideas.

Communication before the shoot was clear and easy. The shoot itself was a lot of fun, as ever.

If you get the chance to work with Steve I'd recommend it.

Finally, it happened! It was a wet and windy evening in Oldham when Steve welcomed me to his studio to shoot some wonderfully creative photography. A huge fan of Robert Mapplethorpe, it was no surprise that was where we started: "Stand right there, would you, keep your clothes on for now but just get your dick out of your trousers and look right into my camera". Hard to object, really. Then, we worked our way through a series of exceptionally creative moods and sequences - Steve specialises in portraying the nude male body in its most natural form, always emphasising the intriguing shapes and angles a naked man can create. Bravo Steve - a singular joy to work with you.

Had a great shoot with Steve. We discussed ideas we both wanted to achieve before the session and played around with clothes I brought and props he already had.

He’s very friendly guy and created a relaxed environment that allowed me let loose and have fun. Looking forward to seeing the results.

I had a brilliant experience working with Steve.

Our comms in the build up were great - interesting, professional and organised.

On the day Steve made me feel very comfortable and at ease and explained the plan for the shoot. Working with him was really natural and easy and it made me feel comfortable and confident throughout.

I can't wait to see what images Steve and I have been able to make and I look forward to working with him again in the future.

Sir G and I have been chatting almost a year through various lock downs after a really fun virtual shoot in 2020! So I jumped into the car, headed Manchester way and then the fun commenced! This was cracking shoot with ideas, water (!!) and chit chat bouncing all over the place and initial results are great! Thanks for a fun shoot and hope our paths cross again!

Just had my first shoot with Sir Grolfe with me on the other side of the lens modelling for him. Fantastic enjoyable shoot in great studio. Would definitely recommend him to other models. Already looking at another session.

Had a real fun shoot - lots of chat and giggles throughout. 2hrs planned - 3hrs later but when it’s working you just go with it. Absolute pleasure - so relaxed felt like we had known each other years

In order to actually do some shooting, Steve and I managed to work together on an online shoot, not the way either of us would normally work but an interesting experiment. Steve was professional, lots of fun and let me be creative with my own ideas. The lead up to the shoot was good too, sharing ideas and thinking about the technical aspects. I think the resulting images are great - due to the way they were taken, they have an almost voyeuristic feel to them. Highly recommend working with Steve and look forward to doing more with him once we can meet in person.

This was a bit of a lockdown experiment - I approached Steve having seen he had done some remote work and wondered if it might work for us - he kindly agreed. We booked the shoot for this evening and had a great pre shoot conversation so I was well prepared! The shoot was interactive and fun and it would be great to replicate and develop the concept in person! Thank you and hope to see you soon!
