Graham and I met for the second time, when he had booked an hour shooting with me one-to-one at a day organised by Smethwick photography club :) he is an absolute star, respectful and kind to work with, and keeps the shoot fun. He brought along his own outfits as well, including a vintage wedding dress, and props such as a scary looking doll (who's face I still see in my nightmares -joking :D ). He also stuck around after his slot and kept me in coffee, which was much appreciated and he didn't need to to but did anyway. He's a total gent and I would be very happy to work with him again, and recommend him to others for sure :)

Graham and I shot together at the lovely Pipewell Hall on a groupshoot there. Everyone who attended was very kind and friendly to shoot with, the groups were well organised and took turns to shoot. Graham gave good direction to achieve what he was after, and I would be happy to shoot with him again :) Thanks Graham!

I was one of the models working at another group shoot at Pipewell Hall with members of the Smethwick Photographic Club, including Graham. Everyone was lovely, took turns to shoot, were pleasant, respectful and great fun to work with. I had a really enjoyable time and would happily work with them again :-)

My second shoot with Graham, this time at the Natural Light Studio alongside Roger & Judith from Smethwick Camera Club. They booked me for the day and took turns to each shoot me and each time they took careful measures to ensure no one got the same images.

Graham has a real idea for a creative image often using props and outfits to enhance the image.

He is a lovely person, so respectful, kind, and always smiling. He is a real pleasure to be around.

Highly recommended and hope to work with you again sometime,

Love, Tillie x

Graham tried to book a shoot with me before Christmas but unfortunately I hadn't been available. But he contacted me again shortly after and we managed to get a date in the diary for Feb :) Graham mentioned his ideas and also that another photographer would be joining us.

Our shoot was at Hallam Mill. Graham arrived along with Steve the other photographer. We chatted about where we were going to shoot and outfit ideas etc. Graham had brought along some stunning vintage gowns and suggested I wear one. It was truly a beautiful dress and I was very excited to wear it.

We used mostly available light the whole day as we were fortunate enough to have plenty, sometimes too much :D the ideas flowed and the hours flew by. We created some stunning images together, some that I can't wait to see.

Graham is very friendly, very easy to work with, professional, respectful. He allowed my plenty of breaks to warm through and drink tea :) I appreciated it a lot. Thank you.

Highly Recommended and hope to work with you again

Graham contacted me for a shoot last year (sounds like such a long time ago now - it was a few days before Christmas!) :D It was one of my last shoots before the Festives and the best possible one I could have hoped for at that! Graham paired up with his friend Tony, we shot a days worth of productive sets but I swear it only felt like half a day... I thoroughly enjoyed myself in totally delightful company, banter, productivity job lot!

Hallam Mill was a great place for us to do our shoot because we alternated between natural light and controlled. Graham was terrific with both, he strives so hard to capture the beauty in an image paying close attention to the little details that make all the difference with an exceptional photograph. His eye for an image = fantastic!!!! As he showed me the results on the back of the camera it was high fives all round, so much credit to Graham for his patience and technical skill.

I felt like this was certainly our second shoot at least, we hit it off like you wouldn't believe getting on like a house on fire with a rapport so effective. Graham delivers respect, courtesy, kindness and all the rest to the models he books. I cannot recommend him enough for being such a lovely photographer to work with and I most certainly look forward to working with him again!

Thanks Again Graham!

I had a full day shoot with Graham and another photographer at Hallam Mill. Graham is an absolute pleasure to work with, friendly and professional and full of ideas. We worked at a relaxed pace throughout the day getting a lot of variety into the shoot. It was great fun and I look forward to seeing the results. I highly recommend him to others.

Thanks Graham :-)
