Experience:
I started taking serious photographs over 50 years ago using a Minolta twin-lens reflex camera, with tuition in studio portraiture from a professional – the photoflood lamps made everyone very hot! I had my own darkroom for processing b&w prints, but in time had to dispense with it. After the advent of colour film I used Pentax SLR cameras, concentrating on landscape, architecture and travel. I now work with a digital Samsung GX-1L which suits me well.

Having retired, with more time by day, I decided to embark on model photography and renew my studio experience, so very different from when I began. I really enjoy working 1:1 with models to build up rapport and create something beautiful, while having lots of fun together. After 2 years, I realise I have had 65 shoots with 43 delightful girls. I have also discovered the mysteries of Photoshop Elements and now feel fairly at home with the process.
 
Comments:
I am a relaxed and courteous person, creative, highly organised, but with a great sense of fun: this is acknowledged in feed-back. Comments below suggest you will receive only kindness and respect from me. I like to be well prepared, so value plenty of interaction before the shoot takes place. To get the best from working together, it is important that we both feel confident and have similar expectations.

I am available most weekdays for shoots. As I don’t have a studio, I rely on four good ones in the area, and occasionally travel to others. Now on limited income I have discovered this is a very expensive hobby! I am happy to help models enrich their portfolio for trade, but willing to pay reasonable fees. I usually give a selection of images as a bonus.

I am always open to ideas, but you will see the levels with which I am most comfortable. I used to restrict my work to ‘implied’; but, with models I trust, now happy to do tasteful topless and modest nude. I will not do erotic or adult work, or anything disrespectful or degrading. I guess my ideal girl has the fresh and natural look rather than 'glam' or artificial, and I am perfectly happy to do just fashion and swimwear with someone at these levels.

First and foremost I am looking for a pretty girl with whom I can create good portraits as well as figure studies. Interesting outfits are a plus. Most of all I want it to be a fun experience for both of us! If you are interested do make contact and discuss your ideas. I have met some lovely and charming girls since I joined this site and am sure that will continue. Much more of my work can be seen on my Purpleport portfolio, but the images below represent a good selection of my best work.

I had the pleasure of working with Graham for the first time after speaking a while back at my Saracen house studio day. An absolutely lovely photographer with clear ideas of what he is after.

Great pre-communication before the shoot with clear thought put into what he was interested in shooting. Overall a lovely shoot with a just as lovely gentleman.I recommend working with him.

I had a very enjoyable shoot with Graham today at Saracen House in Milton Keynes - we planned it some months back and it was great to finally meet! Graham is a very much a gentleman and very considerate, and great at communicating pre-shoot and coming up with a plan of action! He has a clear idea of what he wants to achieve from the shoot which really helps the flow. We had a good balance of planned ideas and natural flow and I'm sure we could easily fill a whole other shoot with more! Graham was even kind enough to buy me lunch and drive me back to my home town after the shoot from Milton Keynes. He's very easy to get on with (and he has good taste in reading!) and is a generally all round nice chap. I highly recommend Graham and look forward to shooting with him again :-)

I've had the absolute pleasure of working with Graham three times now(and hopefully many more to come...) over this time we have developed a wonderful friendship - despite us being like chalk and cheese! He is the most wonderful, non-judgemental and caring person. A total gentleman. I feel completely at ease around him.

I always enjoy working with Graham. No matter how long our shoot is, it never seems long enough! I love that Graham is always organised and full of new ideas. I know exactly what we're going to be shooting and what I need to bring to our shoots (which helps a model SO much!). Pre and post-shoot communications are always excellent.

I highly recommend working with Graham!

Graham replied to one of my casting calls and i am glad he did as i have wanted to work with him for some time.


When i arrived at the shoot i instantly felt comfortable around Graham. He made me feel very relaxed and we had a great shoot although time when far too quick which is never a bad sign as it shows we both enjoyed it :) Graham has lots of ideas and is very organised which is great!


I really hope i get to work with him in the future as is he a great photographer.


Thank you Graham :) x
