Description
As an experienced wedding photographer, my skill is in capturing all the special moments as they unfold naturally on the day– the smiles, the tears, the love, the laughter.
To me, your wedding is a unique and magical occasion, and that is what I aim to portray with my documentary-style wedding photography. A combination of reportage mixed with creative, informal portraiture gives you a truly personal record of your day.
My friendly, unobtrusive style helps even the most camera-shy couple to relax. This means you can get on with enjoying your special day while I document the key moments – the tender looks, the stolen kisses, the joy of family and friends – to bring you images that are touchingly heartfelt and magical and that last a lifetime.

Mark was our wedding photographer in September. On the day Mark and his assistant Sam were fantastic. We were delighted with the resulting photos, they really captured the essence of the day and I know we will treasure the photos for many years to come. Mark has been professional, friendly and helpful before, during and after our wedding. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him."

Mark was absolutely amazing from start to finish, he makes you feel at complete ease throughout your whole day, and for those who are a bit camera shy and people say ''you won't know he is there'' you really and truly don't, and he captures every facial expression and things you forget through out the day. We have had so many compliments of how fantastic his work is and what a great guy Mark was. I really can not recommend highly enough! Thank you for our amazing pictures that we can treasure forever!

We hired Mark for his ability to capture intimate and unique moments that wouldn't feel staged. And he did not disappoint. He managed to capture both the big events and the small personal moments that are often missed. Exactly what we wanted. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Mark and guests have been blown away by the photos. Highly recommended!"

Mark was great on the day, we did not have a lot of time and you almost didn't know he was there but came up with fantastic photos. There were so many great photos we couldn't decide which ones to have in the album, which was stunning we can't stop looking at it! We would highly recommend him"

• April 15, 2017Mark and his 'team' had great ideas for some of our wedding pictures and the preparation beforehand was professional and imaginative. Not only did we have some pictures of the wedding itself, but all the pics from Shelley and her bridesmaids getting ready in the morning, my pre-wedding drinks in the pub to the meal and the party afterwards with band was great. What really made the photos so great , were they caught the essence of fun that we (and hopefully are friends and family ) had all day and captured all key little the moments that make a day so special perfectly .they got everything on celluloid , but somehow did it without being intrusive or fabricating things. To cap it all the presentation box for our Dongle is just perfect and proudly displayed on our sideboard instead of tucked away in a drawer
