Experience:
I am a photographer with over 20 years experience. I am professional, courteous and always work with models to the levels and styles they are comfortable with.

I do not have a studio and to be honest prefer not to work in the studio environment. I normally travel with portable professional studio lighting and backgrounds, and can turn most rooms into a suitable location for most types of shoot. I also enjoy working with natural lighting where possible and will also consider outside location shoots too.

All photography is taken using the latest full frame digital SLR with professional lenses. All photography work is imported to Capture One Pro 7 then finished in Photoshop.

I do not release RAW un-finished images, everything is reviewed and edited. These are uploaded to a secure online gallery for you to view and download, which you will have a login and password to access.

I strive to be the best I can. I hope I can offer something interesting, creative and fun to your portfolio.

I will work on a paid basis, time for prints basis or a mix depending on what benefits both parties.

Finally, a big gripe is the lack of manners on this site. If I happen to email you or reply to your Casting Call, if i am not what your looking for then the least I expect is a reply with a polite no thank you, if thats not too much trouble. If it is then save yourself the bother, because you don't have what i'm looking for to begin with.


Regards

G

I have collected photography books from many of the artists above for aver 15 years. Having over 100 large format hardcover books to look at gives me both inspiration and passion to try and achieve the standards they work to.

Had a great shoot with G yesterday. He arrived early and extremely prepared - a very professional tog who knows exactly the type of images he wants to create and was more than happy to go with my ideas, as well. Sent me some of the images the same day and they are fantastic! Highly recommended to work with and hope to shoot with you again. Penny x

I recently worked with Graeme.
He is friendly, professional and relaxed, the time went by quickly and we ended up with some great shots.
I would recommend him to any model.

Graeme turned up with plenty of ideas in mind. It was a very chilled relaxed shoot, the first hour or so spent discussing ideas and different themes. He is very open-minded and opened my eyes to different photographers, giving me a wide range of ideas to explore. We shot for about 4 hours, and I received images less than 24 hours later. He is an absolute genius, and I wish to work with him again very soon. Highly recommended.
