Testimonials
“Marie’s very talented, sweet and fun to work with!”
~Simone Simons, Epica
“Working with Marie was about as painless as it gets when it comes to
photo shoots! Next to chewing on razorblades, photo shoots are my
favorite thing to do in life. She makes it fun, easy and she gets
fantastic shots. She’s a true inspiration to work with.”
~Richard Fortus, Guns ‘n’ Roses
“We’ve been fortunate enough to work with Marie right from the
beginning of her photography career. Right from the get-go her pictures
wiped the floor with pretty much everybody else’s pictures. In
particular I think she has an amazing talent for capturing live shots
that jump off the page/screen and a really great eye for what will work
in the context of a band group shot. Her talent, skill and profile have
all grown massively since we first worked with her but her down-to-earth
personality and ability to make a photo shoot awesome fun has always
remained the same.”
~Neil Fish, Godsized
“…shots are great!! …not too many photographers can sing and shoot at the same time ”
~Myles Kennedy, Alter Bridge
“It’s official – the best things DO indeed come in small packages.
Marie has a thorough understanding of the Rock n’ Roll vibe we are
always looking for and never fails to deliver first class photography –
something that makes my working day a LOT easier!”
~Steve Norton – Rotosound Media
“…fantastic to work with, the session was relaxed and fun. The
finished shots looked amazing with the extra editing added after and,
unlike some photographers, Marie was happy for me to choose my
favourites to be sent to the client. I will definitely be using Marie
again in the near future for any projects that require top quality
photos with a quick turnaround.”
~Jim Davies, Victory Pill (formerly of The Prodigy & Pitchshifter)
“Marie is a complete professional, a FUN professional. We’ve done a
few shoots with Marie and will continue to go to her for excellent
results, you get what you want, you have fun getting what you want, she
knows what she’s doing, she wears tight jeans. She has us completely at
ease being in front of her lens, she tries as many things she can think
of, and as many things we can think of and she works efficiently and
co-operatively and most of all, which is important for bands especially,
she makes you look cool regardless of how uncool you are.”
~Matt Drake, Evile
“..she knows the brand, the market and what is required… and nails it EVERYTIME!”
~Ed Stone Rockwear Ltd
“… pics are totally killer”
~Jaap Wagemaker, A&R Manager – Nuclear Blast
“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Marie when she was just starting to
click, so it has bowled me over to see her become the showstopper she
is now. She makes the editorial process really hard because she turns in
so many usable snaps. But believe me, she’s worth the work.”
~Louise Brown, Editor, Terrorizer Magazine
“an outstanding job, much better than most of what we have nowadays!”
~Gary Holt, Exodus
“Marie’s work is already showing an eye for capturing the essence and
personality of her subjects while presenting each one in his or her own
light. Her photographs are distinct in their own right. Never samey or
rote. While just at the beginning of her career, she’s made tremendous
leaps and bounds that show signs of her becoming not merely a great
music photographer but a great photographer in her own right.”
~Mike Gitter, former Director of A&R Roadrunner USA and Century Media USA
“Working with Marie was an absolute pleasure. We loaded her up with
more pressure than mere mortals can handle and she took it all in her
stride. On top of that she also delivered a bunch of consistently killer
shots over the entire Hellfire Festival weekend. Marie will always be
top of my list of super-snappers and the icing on the cake is she’s real
foxy too ”
~Rob Ferguson, Transcend Records/Hellfire Festival
“When we first met Marie we knew she was cool because she suggested
that we should use Welcome To The Jungle as our intro music. She took
the first live photos of our band and also the shots that we’ve used on
our promo cards, web sites and posters to this day. We love those shots.
Marie even made our drummer Dan look handsome – to paraphrase Rose
Tattoo, she can’t be beaten. She’s always been our first choice whenever
we need some photos done. Marie truly loves the music scene, not to
mention live bands, tattoos and Jack Daniel’s, so why would you f*ck
around with anyone else? Marie rocks and we salute her.”
~Jason, Sym-Choon
“Cool Slash shots”
~Duff, PR for Velvet Revolver
“Marie is metal through and through and her passion for the music
shows in her photography. She always manages to capture the blood, sweat
and tears of whatever metal gig we send her to whether it be Wembley
Arena or the Camden Barfly”
~Graham Finney, Planet-Loud
