Martin is a dream to shoot with. Professional, fun, creative and a great person.

He shot both myself and another model and the three of us collaborated flawlessly and effortlessly. So much fun.

The studio was great, the gels fantastic and the props brilliant.

We are looking forward to shooting with you again soon.

You are a true artist.

What a great shoot with Martin! We worked at his well equipped home studio to test out his new lighting setup and did a mixture of styles.

Comms before the shoot were great and Martin gave good direction during to achieve what he was after. We got some amazing images and I would highly recommend :)

Well, what an absolute delight Martin is to work with!! Martin joined us on a group event I hosted along with Chris Conway at Inspire studio and his personality lit up the studio! He was such a cool guy and so much fun to be around. Totally respectful towards me and his peers and lots of laughs were shared throughout the night. He was the perfect attendee and it’s people like Martin that make me love my job so much! 100% recommended by me and I hope to have the pleasure of working with him again in the future 😊

Was efficient in all of the messaging about organising the shoot/the venue etc.

Very keen to hear ideas, as well as add his ideas into the mix too. What we got as the final result was stunning and exactly what we were both after.

In the studio, very calming and great to work around. Friendly and engaging in the shoot. Was welcomed with a nice warm cup of tea and discussed the lighting and positioning of the set to get the right look.

We spent a good while with ice breaking conversation, talking about our works that we have done. Really put me in a working and confident mind set.

Very vocal in keeping the shoot vibrant and alive.

I would strongly encourage everyone to work with this man. He’s got a great eye, he’s a great photographer, and an even greater man.

Was like working with an old friend.

I for one, cannot wait to work with him again. And cannot wait to see all the photos of all of his future endeavours with future models.

A second, great shoot with Martin. Since we last met, my professional work away from modelling has seen me move East, West and now South again, all the while occasionally keeping in touch with Martin.

My first shoot in some time given my moves and I've not been accepting any offers, but the example set by Martin is exemplary so it would have been remiss of me not to accept an invite. He maintains his professional stance, vision and creativity whilst being up front and down-to-earth. The banter and rapport this time was only improved on from our first shoot. Having seen a few unedited shots in the studio of what was done yesterday I can only expect the results to be as formidable as any of his work generally. A pleasure to work with, will do so again and comes highly recommended.

Had a brilliant first shoot with Martin on location. Martin's pre-comms were second to none - he went the extra mile planning this shoot, from the picturesque location to perfectly suited beautiful outfits.

I felt very quickly at ease in Martin's company. He is genuine, down to earth, and an upbeat person who has a huge passion for what he does behind a camera. This completely energised our shoot from the get go, and I feel i instantly clicked with him.

I LOVED LOVED LOVED the dresses Martin had planned for our shoot, and when I say he had planned them, he had made sure they fit me like a glove, and had picked specific pieces that'd suit my look. The dresses were so unique, beautiful, and he has impeccable taste in costume. His aim is to bring out a different side of a model, and he did this to a T.

When we began shooting, we got absolute stunners from the first set. Martin takes a quality over quantity approach and does not overshoot for the sake of it, he's clear on what he wants to get, nails it, and moves on. He is not just focused on the model and background - he has an eye for detail, looking at how the wind moved the fabric of the dress, specific areas of light on the face, all the little things that make an image fantastic and not just 'decent'.

I came away from the shoot feeling really inspired - this guy is a true creative and one to work with if you want unique images that add something really different to your port. x

A long wait for this day as Martin is very thorough and once his vision is set it has to be perfect. I love that about him. Anyone wishing to work with Martin will have to bear that in mind and must have patience as his projects unfold but i recommend that if you get the chance, snap it up! The wait is ALWAYS worth it and Martin is a wonder to work with. I cannot wait for our project to unfold further :)

I had another a Great photoshoot with Parkstone photographs . He is a very talented photographer who knows his craft well to produce excellent shots. I would very strongly recommend him and would be more than happy to have another session with him in the future.had a lovely time thank u again x

I had yet another great shoot with martin today. I have wanted to try a kitsch style for a while now and add some high fashion shots to my portfolio, and Martin worked with myself and our HMUA to help me to bring my ideas to life. Although the shoot was initiated by me, this shoot was a huge success because of Martin's commitment, teamwork, and communication skills. Whether the vision is his own or someone else's, martin gets stuck in and fully immerses himself in every part of it all and is highly recommended as always. I cannot wait to shoot the ideas that Martin has and get some really creative work into the public eye.

Had a very fun shoot with martin who has come to be a very good friend of mine. It is rare to find someone with the same passion as me for creating art, and it is so nice to have someone to share that with. Attention to every detail, enthusiasm and professionalism. I recommend martin to models who are committed and want to create something epic! Our latest shoot was some experimental light painting. Not easy to pull off and a first for us both, but super fun. More projects in the pipeline and i cannot wait for what's to come!

This was my second time getting to work with this amazing photographer. His professionalism has brought out the best in me, as can be seen in the photographs. He is a top bloke and helps me in every way he can. Can’t wait to work with him again!

I had a really great shoot with Martin. I found him to be an extremely helpful guy who put me well at ease and made the whole experience very enjoyable. He put a great deal of effort into the shoot, above and beyond what I expected. His work is very professional and I hope to do several more shoots with him. If you get the opportunity to work with Martin grab it.

Martin at Parkstone Photogrpahy was a true pleasure to work with. Martin has some amazing talented and creative ideas and alot of visions and also looks beyond the normal photo. I've not worked with someone who spends so much time and dedication to his work. Looking forward to working with him again real soon.

Just recently had another shoot with Parkstone Photography and I wish we had a time to do this every week..The time, effort, research and energy he put in every shoot is amazing..If you want to work with a true perfectionist photographer with tons of ideas and creativity dont look any further.

I had a long awaited shoot with Martin recently. We had been planning it for long time. Martin was extremely prepared, his studio is absolutely full of equipments. The pre shoot communications was excellent, he just getting more and more ideas closer to the shoot so it was hard to make it at one go :)

This time we did portraiture in his home studio. The weather was just simply too nice for our outdoor ideas, but we are already planning our next shoots :)

Martin is a very genuine, amazingly creative, enthusiastic guy who lives for his passion and full with ideas. I felt fully comfortable and relaxed during the shoot.

He is friendly and very easy to talk to!

I would recommend him 100% to anyone, if you ever get the chance to work with him dont miss it!
