I've attended several events organised by Mark, both studio based and on location. They are always enjoyable, always providing plenty of opportunity

to take photographs. Model to photographer ratio's are always good and the lighting provided is very professional. There are also several MUA's on hand and a good supply of costumes and props for the models to use. snacks and drinks supplied for studio shoots and, usually, a lunch is provided when on location. All for a very reasonable cost. Well better than reasonable, the events are excellent value for the price.

Mark organises and runs the events, along with his colleague, Kerry.

Both are always welcoming, friendly, helpful and enthusiastic.

Would recommend 100%. and will definitely be attending more.

Second group shoot with Mark and I have already been asking when the next one is. The day flew by and as always, was run with pure professionalism by Mark. His hospitality is second to none snd everyone feels comfortable and happy. He ensures everyone's safety and well-being. I hope he gets chance to get his camera out next time, as he is always thinking of others.

Mark contacted me to fill a last minute space he had at his group shoot at a prison. I couldn't miss the opportunity, so stepped in. The shoot was the most organised and friendly group shoot I've attended and Mark was kind enough to even organise a buffet for everyone. Really looking forward to attending the next event.

Had the absolute pleasure of working for Mark for his monthly meet up, with a group of photographers and was made to feel welcome as soon as I arrived.

Mark is a great fun to work with and was very professional from the minute we got started. Always making sure I was ok and if I needed anything.

I had great fun and already love the photos I’ve seen from the day. I will definitely be heading back to work with him and the others very soon!

I had a great shoot with Mark at the Steelhouse Lock up in Birmingham. Great location and great group of photographers . Mark worked professionally and provided a great selection of images I will for sure be using for my acting portfolio . The shoot was organised very well and there was great communication between us both before and during the shoot . I would recommend these group shoots for sure . Lots of fun

Mark is a very friendly, easy, outgoing person. He is very easy to get along with and to hold a conversation with. The past two shoots that I have had with Mark have both been very positive and great fun! Mark is a very organised person, who plans and pays attention to every little detail for his shoots..By even getting everyone all the props they need out of his own pocket!! He defo goes out of his way to make sure each shoot is a positive experience and makes everyone feel welcome even if they are new. I cannot wait to work with Mark on another shoot!! :)

Had a pleasure of working with Mark on a group shoot organised by him. The shoot was highly organised. Mark was open to different ideas and themes; and he is very easy to communicate with.

Prior to the shoot he shared the PDF plan of the location including specific Hair and Makeup artists assigned to each model. Also, he had booked 2 Marquees for the models to get ready. On arrival, he was very warm and welcoming. He made me feel very comfortable and we tried different props while shooting. It was a lot of fun to shoot with all the photographers and models. Everyone was very patient and easy to shoot with.

Highly recommended.

I have been very lucky to have the opportunity to work with Mark on 3 occasions. Mark is incredibly professional, and excellent at giving guidance and direction which helps massively. Mark is able to put you at ease, he is relaxed and always able to take the perfect image. Mark is also an absolute whiz when it comes to picture editing and photoshop, so you know that you are guaranteed quality. I would snap up the opportunity to work with Mark again in the future, and would recommend anyone to work with him.

Mark's pre-shoot communication was absolutely first class - he is brilliant at organising everyone to make sure we get the most out of the shoot. We had a brilliant group shoot for which I created 3 makeup looks for... he was very friendly, chatty and put everyone at ease. I was very impressed with his approach and the images he produced. I would love the opportunity to work with Mark again and would highly recommend him.

Mark is a erythromycin organised photographer and the previous planing was excellent.

Mark invited me on a group shoot and I was so glad I was asked, it was a really great experience. Pre shoot comms were really great and I knew what I was supposed to be doing before I arrived. Mark was friendly and was really helpful throughout the shoot. He helped to make sure I was comfortable especially when at times I was in difficult positions due to the costume I was wearing. He is a really lovely man and would highly recommend and hope to work with him again soon. Thanks Mark!
