Yet again...another stupendous shoot with Mark. This must be our 4th I think now.... and each one just gets better and better. It's very true about the success rate when building a rapport with your fellow creatives. You know what they like and they know what you can do so it becomes effortless to create images you are both really proud of. Plus the fact you feel comfortable and at ease with them and happy to free-flow when the photographer allows you to do so.

Mark's a genuinely lovely person, allows a brew on hand when I arrive. So laid back during the shoots, allows time for changes in makeup and styling which is really appreciated as it allows me to change up looks to achieve fresh images.

HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, thanks so much Mark

Relaxed and friendly shoot with Mark in his studio which is large and comfortable and well equipped. Spacious and clean dressing room which is handy when you have a lot of costumes. Mark turned the images around quickly as wel, which is a nice professional touch and overall the experience of modelling at his studio was one which I would thoroughly recommend. Mark is a professional photographer and understands and practices his craft with skill and care and the right amount of attention to detail

Eeeeek! Metal Mark (that's what I called him in my phone from our first shoot) haha!

Excellent pre comms as always, and arranged everything in only a few emails and months in advance, coffees and awesome music throughout our shoot and introduced me to a few new bands (playing Hailstorm to death now!)

It's brilliant working with Mark as we get sooo much done on our shoots from beauty portraiture, fashion, lingerie, nudes, and I my personal favourite fashion-nude :) Mark only has to glance at what I'm wearing to know exactly what he wants to do with the lights and bam we're shooting away, with lots of chatting between poses! Always a super relaxed shoot with quick breaks.

Already had shots send over to nosey at and I think we topped the last shoot, aces!

Really love working with Mark and he still comes highly recommended, truly can't wait for the next shoot, and see how we beat this time :)

Thanks again, see you soon,

Mark is such an awesome individual! Immediately felt relaxed in his company, got chatting straight away and found a real affinity for all music rock and metal, not to mention an artistic connection pretty sharpish. We shot yesterday at his studio in Leeds for the evening, going for full on spontaneous mix of fashion to nude styles, shooting about seven looks in near enough under three hours - he works smoothly, quick and precise with the camera, always taking care to ask if the model comfortable or needs a cuppa. Such a dude.

So friendly, full of awesome music stories and an amazing eye for creating gorgeous images! Can't wait to work with this fella again - soon with any luck. Highly recommended to all models :)

Had a second wonderful shoot with Mark last week!... We booked the shoot with ease as before and talked through ideas etc.... This is always awesome for me as I have an idea of what to pack! .....

As before the whole shoot flew by!.... as always nice and relaxed with a good flow of giggles and images!

And we got some really awesome images.... the nice thing is Marks has his ideas and you also input your own ideas for a real collaboration!

Still a big recommendation from me to all models.

A genuinely nice guy!!! And a really talented photographer!

Thanks again Mark! Until the next time.... I'll remember to to keep my arms more considerate to your framing ;)

Had a great shoot with Mark yesterday after we had to reschedule in December. Pre-shoot communications were great. Ideas we put out there and upon arrivals it proved that Mark was super easy to work with more thoughts discussed.

We used an amazing MUA he works with regularly and it was nice knowing they trusted each other to achieve what they both wanted too.

It was fab working with Mark, and would recommend to anyone!

I had a lovely catch-up shoot with Mark! We had scheduled a shoot earlier in the year but neither of our healths were up to the task, especially Mark's, so we rescheduled. Our shoot went well and we got through various sets, which Mark kindly offered to edit when I made a few picks, and delivered them only a few days after the shoot! It was just nice to catch up with what seems an old friend I hadn't seen for ages, and as we shot I thoroughly enjoyed myself because we were able to chat, joke and laugh about different things. I would highly recommend working with Mark, because he always delivers what he sets out to do, treats the models with courtesy, and is simply fun to work with!

Absolutely loved shooting with Mark yesterday and would jump at any other opportunity. The communication beforehand was brilliant and I knew exactly what we were doing, how Mark works and also had a mood board to work to. Mark arrived early before me and made me a brew whilst we discussed lighting, settings and outfits.

From the get go we worked really well and got through each set really quickly considering how much we came out with! It was the best music I've ever had so far on a shoot which helped us both relax and have a bit of a natter about and the images in the end were amazing. Can't wait to see the final images- Thank you so much Mark!!

Rhianna Grey

Yet another top shoot with mark yesterday at his studio. He never fails to impress! I always look forward to working with him and I'm always impressed by his lighting work... so, this time, I went all out in creating some crazy avant garde looks which of course mark captured and brought out beautifully.

Mark is always a true joy to work and respectful, which makes the shoots super relaxed and easy going, with a bit of a chuckle in between.

I hope it won't be too long until we work together again... and now you've got a hairdryer to add all the other hair styling products , I don't mind saturating my hair for the next one haha.

Thanks again for another epic shoot!

Extremely fun and enjoyable shoot with Mark. Excellent pre comms, studio, lighting equipment and attention to detail. Very easy to work with, I was especially pleased with the lighting technique and similar idea spectrum. Plus great taste in music. Would define you work with again, professional and highly reccomended

My first shoot with Mark was a good one!

Mark has his own lovely studio in Bramley and was in there ready for my arrival with the heaters on and kettle boiling!

We created some great images. Mark knows how to create effective lighting to make you look good and gave great pointers.

He also helped me get away from my lifsettle commercial ways to bring out my 'resting bitch face' to create those moody images.

Would recommend shooting with Mark :)

Mark is wonderfully easy to communicate with, clear with what he wants out of the shoot and chatty once on set. We shot at least five sets within an hour - quite a bit less than the four we had planned. I'm super excited to see the results. Highly recommended and would work with again.

DorotaMUA

This year in February would be nearly 1 year of my team work with Mark in his studio.

Year ago he started from empty, cold space - he turned his studio into amazing place! equipped with wide range of studio lights, powerful heaters, elegant designer chairs for posing, space for make-up artist and model and this includes Table+Professional directors chair+heat tools for hairstyling available for MUAs and Models, steamer, cloth rack hangers etc...

I am really enjoying to work with Mark every each time!

His really friendly and bubbly person!

Always provides concrets, important details, small chat on start, gives guides regarding look, changes, makeup and hairstyling.

His always happy to help, often gives a lift to our models if need, if shoots takes longer than 4 hours, takes care for our lunch!

One of my favourite photographer in last year! He experimenting with lights, styles, different looks so much, but this gives interesting variety of all looks created by him! Amazing add to every portfolio!

Highly recommended! - and I am absolutely looking forward of our team work in 2017!

I think this was my third shoot with Mark, again at his fantastic studio. Each shoot just seems to get better and better, I think the more you get to know someone and what they like then it's becomes like second nature plus the fact the conversation flows and so does the creativity.

Mark always has great ideas and his experience with lighting seems to progress each time we shoot, he has a new lighting set-up that I like even more than the last.

The shots looked amazing from our last shoot and I was so pleased with how it went

Certainly can highly recommend and will hope to work with you again Mark

Thanks, Tillie

Just had my second shoot with Mark, and was so pleased I did!

We booked it very last minute having both put out castings, and after a small discussion we decided on some character work and art nude figure work.

Mark is always so much fun to work with. Professional and efficient in his work, whilst also being easy to chat to and have a laugh with. After a quick look at what I had brought clothing wise, we soon had a plan and were well on our way. It felt like a real team effort, and it was nice to share the creative input together. The time flew as always, and I was pleased by what I saw on the back of the camera. Really excited to see the final outcome!

Mark's studio is great - spacious, well-equipt, with great tea/coffee facilities, and a warm changing room for models as well.

I hope we cross paths in 2017 as he is such a fab guy to work with. Highly recommended.

Thanks Mark - can't wait for the next one.

I had my first shoot with Mark and I enjoyed it a lot.

Pre -shoot communication was great, we discussed everything before the shoot. Had DorotaMUA doing the hair and makeup to a high standard as usual.

Productive, fast paced, no messing around. Mark is a focused professional and it is very comfortable to work with him.

I have received the pictures really fast too.

He offers coffee and actually has straws to use so the lipstick is not smudged. The only person I worked with who thought that far. :D

I would recommend working with Mark to anyone.

I had a pleasure working with Mark in his studio yesterday and I'm very happy about our collaboration! We had a spontaneous photoshoot in a very relaxed atmosphere, with my range of outfits. Mark is friendly and very proffesional with lots of ideas and a great music taste! I couldn't recommend him any higher to work with! :) I also want to mention a nice studio venue, where there's a dressing room and always plenty of tea and coffee :) Thank you for your time!

Lindsay

I had a brilliant first shoot with Mark a couple of weeks ago!

Pre comms were excellent Which helped a lot in deciding what items to take along and the whole feel of the shoot beforehand.

Mark is a really great guy to work with, knows what he wants to achieve so we could get through a massive amount in a really quick time....he also has great taste in music which always helps!

The studio was toasty warm even though it was freezing and blowing a gale outside, the dressing room also was warm and very well set up with hangers, curlers etc and great lighting too!

I would recommend anyone to shoot with Mark....great fun working with him and great images to top it all off too :)

I had an amazing shoot with Mark in Leeds yesterday!

The communication before the shoot was simply ideal and all details were discussed. He was kind enough to pick me up from the train station, drive me to the studio and maintained conversation so we got on very well and kept conversation going throughout the shoot. He was really friendly, considerate, welcoming and made me feel very comfortable.

The studio he has is a lovely, clean and modern space, with everything you could need.

Mark has lots of ideas, he's enthusiastic about creating quality images and was chatty and pleasant company.

I totally recommend him to everyone and I hope we will have an opportunity to do a shoot in the future again!
