Mark never fails to deliver on a shoot, from everything such as pre shoot comms, concern for his models' comfort and safety on the day, through to the final images. Another fantastic experience in front of Mark's lens at the bottom of the pool.

It was wonderful to get back into the pool to work with Mark once again. The level of respect Mark has for his models and the care he shows towards them to ensure their safety while in the water and their enjoyment of the shoot is exemplary. Working underwater is hard work for the model, but so it for Mark as the photographer: this isn't Tankspace where the photographer is standing in the dry peering through the glass as he/she clicks the shutter, oh no......Mark is under the water in full scuba gear for the duration of the shoot working every bit as hard as we are to create images that the whole team can be proud of. As ever, thank you Mark.

I had the please of working with Mark during my first under water shoot. It was an absolute blast!

I was a little nervous about the shoot & perhaps questioned my capability. Mark, his team & the other models booked for the shoot made me feel right at home and i fit right in!

Marks pre communications before the shoot were flawless to say the least, I knew what was expected of me on the day and 0 surprises were thrown my way.

Needless to say I am absolutely thrilled with the work we produced and absolutely hope to work with Mark and his team again in the future.

Recommended recommended RECOMMENDED!

Another fantastic day shooting with Mark in the depths of a swimming pool in Kent. Yet again Mark accommodated my quirky concepts and captured several different sets of images on both digital and film cameras. It’s always a joy working with Mark, who works tirelessly to ensure his models go away from a shoot with images they can be proud of.

Had a recent "workshop" with Marco and I'm glad i did. Not enough people look at how others work and it was a pleasure to work through lighting and composition with him. Enjoyable company, helpful and thoughtful with how he talks through things. More photographers should take note.

Mark came to me wanting to collaborate on a studio shoot based on a 17th century Ruben style painting, and I am so happy I said yes!

This was my first time shooting with mark, and it won’t be the last! Pre comms was perfect, the shoot itself was so much fun, we created some beautiful images and had a laugh in between shots!

100% recomend! :)

It was an absolute pleasure to be back in the pool with Mark today for an underwater shoot. Always so considerate to his models, it's a genuine privilege to be in front of Mark's camera. Mark has one of the best senses of humour in the business and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

First time working with Mark yesterday, and what an amazing man. Mark is extremely organised and very creative. I loved the ideas that came up for our shoot yesterday with the under water creations. Mark is funny, and like myself has a huge passion for motorcycles. Great eye to detail, professional. Highly recommend Mark and I really can not wait to work with him again in the near future. Thank you so much

I add a amazing shoot with make and the underwater team.

It's always a privilege to work with Mark

I had the immense pleasure of spending a week with Mark in rural Italy where we shot a series of art nude images, with some fashion and cos play thrown in for good measure. Mark had researched some stunning locations and had a clear idea of what he wanted in each of them....all that was left was for us to wkrk together to turn those ideas into images. Every trip out with the camera was a joy filled experience; professional at all times, Mark is a true delight to work with and laughter and good humour were our constant companions. Hardworking and with a superb eye for detail, Mark is a master of the use of light, whether that be artificial lighting in a studio setting or, as was the case in Italy, the harnessing of natural light at sunrise on a mountain top, or the use of shadows and dappled light in a shaded woodland. Thoughtful and considerate, Mark is always respectful and supportive, and the safety and comfort of his models is a constant priority. I don't actually have a bad word to say about Mark, so if you're offered the opportunity to work with him I recommend you say yes.

Second time shooting with Marco.

He put together an awesome networking day, I have to say it was very well organised. All we had to do was show up on the day and bring some snacks.

Really enjoy shooting with him and love the way he creates his images, great photographer and always happy to add his technical knowledge into the lighting.

Will hopefully work with him again soon.

Cheers Jasper

This was my second time working with Marco, he is the perfect mix of professional and artistic energy. Most importantly I feel relaxed working with Marco. The communication of details for the shoot, to direction during and sending photos after cannot be faulted. the images themselves are wonderful. I would never turn down the opportunity to work with him.

Far from being my first shoot with this generous man, Marco organised a multiple model shoot using his collection of modern and classic motorcycles, he laid on snacks and refreshments which was much appreciated.

Marco ensured everyone was well catered for and that everyone was safe as the venue was set in a working garage and it would be easy to fall or knock something over. His bikes took second place to the models he invited (sorry Marco, much as I love a classic bike...LOL) they were excellent and provided us with wonderful images.

Highly recommended.

I was invited to a multiple model and photographer shoot organised by Marco. Im always happy to work with him, he shows his models the utmost respect. Everyone on the day was looked after and catered for. Time sadly didn't allow me to work in front of Marco's camera, but i have done on countless occasions before and I can highly recommend him as a photographer. Anyone would be lucky to work with him and im sure I will again in the future.

Thanks Marco.

Marco invited me along to a shoot with some fantastic classic motorbikes. We shot with 4 different bikes and photographers, each with a different theme/outfit depending on photographer and bike.

We worked through lots of different sets and I had so much fun with the different motorbikes.

Marco made me feel welcome, supplied lots of refreshments and was a pleasure to work with.

Thank you for a great day

Highly recommended

I'd just like to say how much I enjoyed working with Mark and I'm so excited to see what he does to the images. The shoot was so much fun and his skills were clear. He was very friendly and easy to communicate with. Would love to work again in the future.

Marco Bellimbusto is a true gentleman. He was very supportive of my ideas. He also had a variety of creative ideas of his own which added well to the mix.

Highly recommended!

This was a well planned, we'll communicated shoot in a great setting. Marco was polite and curtius at all times. Whilst allowing for artistic input of my own. A true pleasure to work with

Worked with mark for the first time a few days ago in a motorbike themed shoot. I couldnt ask for anyone more professional! Very easy to work with in terms of direction, he made me feel extremely calm and comfortable from start to finish.

As a model who is relatively new to the industry it's been a delight to work with someone such as mark, his direction is a lovely input and attention to detail didnt go a miss! Looking forward to the edits and a future shoot.

The Snowdrop Studio

It was great to welcome mark back to the studio after lockdown. He bought a lovely new local model and the shoot went well with new protocols for safe shooting. Mark is just the loveliest of men and a bloody great photographer - as always he is highly recommended

Look forward to seeing him again soon xx
