References for Graham Martin

I always feel awful about the amount of time I have of Graham's seeing as we own a studio together and he never has the chance to get his camera out for the models at ours, as he always running around like a headless chicken...

But I have to say for the first time this year so far we managed to get on location and get some shots - whoooooo hoooooooo.

I honestly think another batch of fabulous images will be in the making and as always they will be my favourite ever and I will just love them.

Sorry people but I have bagged him as my go to photographer... Jealous? Well I think you all should be.

Thank you Niles x

Yes I have the reference for Graham but really you would be surprised with actually how many times we do actually get to shoot with one another and believe me it isnt often enough.

Since our last shoot together awhile ago, this time we had a new lighting setup we really wanted to try with one another and we set to work trying to create some magic which I definitely help that we have.

Graham is great to work with as he doesn't think I'm crazy when I attempt to getting some weird poses that I actually think they look good and guess what they usually do but most of that is down to grahams fantastic camera technique.

So obviously highly recommended.

I had the pleasure of shooting with Graham in a different setting and a different studio altogether on Sunday when I was booked to model for a special event at Yorkshire Studios.

It was nice to work with Graham in a totally new environment and I an sure the results will be fabulous.

Once again Graham was the ultimate professional and respectful person that he is. He joined in the day and his presence really added to the day.

Highly recommended as always.

Well its about time I wrote Graham another reference seeing as we shoot together all the time, although he will tell you its never enough! Well I hope he will!

Yes we managed to create another great set of images today from up north! A slightly different scenario in that the location we chose was extremely wet and the weather took a turn for the worse, however we still managed to create magic - as usual when we work together!

Graham is always very easy and great to work with. Nothing is too much trouble and he never dismisses my ideas, just goes along with them then adds even better ones of his own.

Such a fantastic person to work with.

What a lovely guy graham is, he made me feel completely at ease straight away and I felt as if I'd known him for years rather than our first meeting.

His pre comms are second to none and he made sure I was comfortable and really looked after me for the time I was with him.

100% recommend and I can't wait to work with him again in the future!

Thanks so much graham your amazing

What can you say about Graham which hasn't already been said in the wonderful array of references he already has? It's a difficult one so I'll simply repeat many of the compliments he has already deservedly received!

A total gentleman, a true professional with a huge helping of great fun and banter. Graham is obviously hugely passionate about photography and ensuring the model is not only relaxed during every second of a shoot but is also 100% satisfied with the results.

So pleased with our meet today that I'm going back in two days time.

Shot with the lovely Graham in Derby on Thursday where we attended a fantastic plane shoot at an airfield. Wow what an experience that was. Graham certainly has his work cut out editing the mass images we took that day.

It was glorious and incredibly successful. I am a very lucky model.

Graham asked the correct people and lady luck was on our side. We managed to shoot inside the planes, on the wings, everything. A truly one off experience that I am so glad we did together as I definitely know the images will be quality.

A fantastic day with a fantastic photographer.

Graham attended a messy slime shoot I was booked on at Ian's Studio last night. It was truly wonderful to get to work with him again.

I absolutely love working with Graham. He is simple the best. He captures me beautifully in every shot he takes and I have a real special bond with him.

He sees images the way I do, hence why we work a lot together. I always feel really comfortable around him and he is definitely the reason why my creative journey in modelling has upped a lot.

It is all down to Graham and I would shoot every day with him if I could.

It was a pleasure working with Graham at the Zan studio as part of a group shoot. He was very enthusiastic and knew what he wanted giving good direction and feedback. I was very well looked after at the studio and had great conversation with Graham. I would recommend giving the studio and Graham a visit. Thanks Graham and I look forward to seeing some more images.

So up to the Lakes we went again for yet another fabulous shooting day, Graham in tow ready to produce some amazing images.

I wasn't feeling tip top that day, but Graham kindly took care of me and I obviously still continued to work hard and produce some amazing images under his guidance and in his fabulous locations that he had scouted.

Ive said it before and I will say it again, Graham's images definitely deserve more recognition and I am certainly glad that we get to work together as often as we do. I am very lucky to be able to get creative with Graham, we are on the same wave length when it comes to creating some fantastic images.

Graham as attended a networking evening where I was booked to model. A little different from the styles we are used to producing but still an excellent evening.

I am really looking forward to every little adventure we have in the near future. He is the best.

I shot with Graham this week at Zan Studios and out on location also. A mixture of art nude, fashion and urban shots within a really cool cave. Graham is a top bloke, he organised a groop shoot later on that same evening too, so he looked after me the whole time i was at the studio.

He was very welcoming, friendly, hospitable, the shoots were well planned, fun and creative. We captured cracking shots both on location and in the studio and it was a real pleasure working with him.

I hope to work with him again soon.

Highly recommended.

A casting call went up from me to ask if anyone fancied a shoot at Sandon Hall in Staffordshire...

Who should be the first to apply - Yes Graham. Well that was obviously a done deal as I feel that I can shoot my best with him above everyone else - sorry folks.

So off we set off to Sandon Hall to shoot some amazing images together. We rocked up, no plans put in place etc etc. In all honesty we never do have firm plans as Graham is so easy to work with that I could shoot hour after hour with him and always create something different each time. He has a great ability to seek out a location and see something different than everyone else does. Which is why he is so fantastic to work with.

Everyone knows when we appear at these events as we turn up, with hardly any gear, no plans but slowly as the day continues we find everyone is watching us (and not because of our matching trainers) but because we have ended up finding a fabulous location and are using it to the best of our ability. At the end of the day weve managed more pictures than anyone else and the results are amazing - job done...

Weve planned lots more locations together and I am certain that our adventures will get better and continue in heaps... please....

Thanks Niles x

Monday daytime saw me shooting art nude in the south Lake District area with the one and only Graham plus a few more photographers.

It was cold and windy (which apparently makes good images), but definitely not dull. Graham as always was a complete star, always on hand to help me scuttle up rocks and hills etc. Even carrying my stuff. Bless.

Graham is also in charge of location scouting for us in these areas so in all honesty I don't know how he found time to get his camera out, but he did.

You'll probably see that he is responsible for a lot of the images on my portfolio. That's because we get along together so well and we make a really great team, not to mention the fact that his images are amazing.

As always he's 110% recommended by me (I'm expecting a "only 110%" sulky message back now)... Okay probably a lot more... x

I had the pleasure of working with Graham yesterday at Zan Studios. I have worked with him a couple of times before and he's just lovely! Always making sure I have everything I need...he even made me a cake for my Birthday! What a gem!

Professional, chatty, laid back and very easy to get along with!

Looking forward to working with him again and definitely recommend him to other models :)

So I finally got to attend Newsham Park Hospital and I dragged Graham with me. He didn't protest much so that was good!

This was yet another day out and fantastic adventure for us. Graham is always thinking of fabulous, creative ideas and I am only too happy to oblige. Plus he lets me contribute and set up some shots that I think work.

So off we set off to Newsham, with lots of food and drink and bags of energy. We came back happy having got some amazing shots, all obviously because of Graham's great camera work.

He is truly a great photographer and a great friend. I really look forward to each adventure with him and hope that they continue and continue... and continue...

Definitely one lucky model :)

I had the pleasure of shooting with graham for a few hours before the group shoot at Zan Studio. First off, Graham was very welcoming and makes a fabulous brew! He really did look after me and made sure I didn't go hungry or thirsty.. That's why my energy levels were up throughout the day not forgetting because Graham is great company and a brilliant photographer to work with. Very easy going and a good laugh. As you can see, his port speaks volumes about his work. He loves to experiment with lighting and spends time perfecting the whole set before clicking that button! Straight away, there's a perfectly lit image staring back at you on back of cam.

I'm very much looking forward to working with Graham again soon!

Thanks again Graham
