I was a really big fan of Mark's work prior to shooting with him and had followed his creativity on social media. I was absolutely over the moon with the whole shoot! Not only because of the pictures which are probably some of my most favourite shots but because of how very lovely, kind, professional and easy going Mark is. I would highly recommend Mark and he knows what he is doing and I trusted his ability so much. Was a really lovely day and I do hope to return and shoot with Mark again. Thank you so much as is a really lovely gentleman x

What can I say that’s not already been said ? A lot more actually :-)

Mark is so warm and friendly , passionate about his work . A perfectionist and boy does it show !

Cup of tea as soon as I arrived with my bags and ‘precious cargo ‘ .. I’ll come to that shortly.

Ginger biscuits on demand and a chat about the images we’d discussed . Pre comms was excellent ! Mark know what images he’s after and created a mood board which we worked too and I loved this !

I had messaged Mark as I’d seen his fabulous images and I desperately wanted to work with him , luckily for me he agreed . I was not disappointed .

Now to my precious cargo . I dropped this quote last minute on Mark .. I’d recently been gifted a guitar from Five Finger Death Punch’s Jason Hook .. for all you metal heads you’ll know ;) . My pride and joy and I wanted Mark to use it in my shoot . Suffice to say my BEST pictures ever and he did it justice . We rocked ..

The rest of the shoot was just fantastic . The images we got from the whole shoot left me wanting to come back and do another . The time flew by

Mark is a wonderful photographer and I wholeheartedly recommend .

A gentleman and then some ~Roo 🤘🏻😊

I shot with Mark on Saturday just gone and can honestly say it was the best shoot I’ve ever had! I felt completely at ease throughout the entire day, nothing was rushed and pure perfection was achieved! Mark is professional, friendly and open to all the crazy ideas I threw at him! Thank you for making me feel so welcome and comfortable and I can’t wait to come back again!

I have been honoured to have had a second opportunity to shoot with Mark. ...And what a simply incredible shoot it was.

Mark is a truly passionate, dedicated and pro standard photographer (except he is too modest to admit that) with exceptional lighting, shooting and editing skills. He is also a natural at directing poses and we effortlessly captured a series of stunning lingerie images using a combo of studio and natural lighting. The beautiful and captivating images speak for themselves and his image quality is second to none that I have ever yet come across on PP. Pure excellence.

To top it off, Mark is geniunely one of the warmest, nicest and most considerate people you could ever meet. He doesn't arrange shoot days, he 'hosts' them. Every single detail imagineable is taken care of and I was treated with upmost care and attention from the moment I arrived.

10/10 experience and 10/10 images. Mark.. Thank You.

Wow! I had an amazing shoot with Mark yesterday, not only is he an exceptionally talented photographer but he is genuinely one of the loveliest people I’ve ever met.

Mark was so welcoming, making sure I was ok throughout the day with coffee and water and the day went really fast as we had a laugh in his studio as well.

I was able to see the shots onscreen as we went along which helped me so much with knowing what was working. I wish every shoot could be like this!

Mark knows a lot about lighting and photography in general and it was great talking to him in the breaks. I felt so at ease right from the start and we were able to capture some fantastic images.

I would definitely recommend working with Mark and I hope to work with him again in the future.

Ah what a legend Mark is! Genuinely one of the nicest guys I’ve met!

He was so polite and friendly and showed me around his beautiful home into my own little dressing room and made me feel so comfortable!

He’s insanely talented with lighting and editing and I adored every shot we took!

For lunch he even made me a sandwich on homemade bread! I was so impressed 😂

100% recommend and cannot wait to work with him again! Thank you Mark!

I had my third shoot with Mark yesterday and absolutely loved every second of it! We utilised his fab studio as well as his beautiful garden and got some truly killer shots. Mark was very patient through outfit changes, provided coffee throughout the day, and encouraging words/direction when needed. After working with Mark I come away feeling so excited to see the images and so happy with the progress of the day! To sum it all up? My absolute favourite photographer to work with!

I had my first shoot with Mark and hoepfully not my last. From start to finish the shoot was an absolute blast, mark was welcoming and accommodating, friendly and professional. As everyone can see he is an amazing photographer, his portfolio is incredible. I would recommend him to anyone and I cant wait to work with him again. Thanks again Mark 😊

Had my second shoot with Mark and again I’m overwhelmed by the quality and quantity of great images we captured! Mark is a true professional providing encouragement, advice, talking me through the whole process, and he even makes a great coffee ;) absolutely cannot wait to work with this talented individual again in the very near future! Would highly recommend to models of any experience level and ability

Wowza!

What a lovely man Mark is.

So today I was lucky to work with Mark for the first time where he was assisting Vince and myself at his own home studio. What else can I add? This guy is lovely, polite, genuine and he certainly knows his lighting stuff.

Recommend to models of any experience and hope to pose for Mark in the future too :)

Chocolates are heavenly.

I got to work with Mark yesterday, on a shoot I organised with Xenia and Mark. I have admired Mark's work for a while now and pestered him into shooting at his studio alongside him so that I could learn about studio lighting. Mark delivered on all levels: He is a genuinely friendly, helpful, talented and creative guy. It was a pleasure to learn from you Mark! Many thanks!

Today was my first time shooting with Mark and I absolutely loved every second of it! His studio setup is fantastic and very professional, as is Mark himself - he made me feel completely at ease, talked me through the technical side of things which was incredibly interesting!! We got some amazing images throughout the day and to say I’m happy would be an understatement! I cannot wait to work with Mark again in the future and would highly recommend him! (Added Bonus: Mark has great taste in music and a fab sense of humour!) Genuinely a fantastic day!

Ree Louise

I’ve been wanting to work with mark for a quite a while now and saying I’m so happy I did would be an understatement! Mark is such a lovely person, his wife Sharon is lovely also! The images we got (raw) are absolutely incredible! We worked so well together and had such good ideas and I honestly would 110% recommend Mark and I already am thinking about new ideas for our next shoot,

Thanks again Mark, you’ll probably get fed up of me with all the next planned shoot ideas I’ve got 😂

This was the first of what Im hoping to be many shoots with Mark. Mark is a warm, kind and considerate photographer and went to great lengths to make me feel VERY comfortable and at ease the whole shoot. Ive never known a photographer go out of his way to the lengths that Mark had.. He had thoroughly prepared for the shoot, even compiling a mood board, which meant we were able to produce stunning, high quality images in a timely manner. And when I say stunning.. Well.. His port speaks for itself!! I also received images promptly despite Xmas being a busy time for him. Mark was excellent at keeping in touch and took fully on board any feedback I had on the images. I thoroughly enjoyed our shoot and am truly looking forward to booking again with him very soon. I cant rate Mark enough! If I could score him on his strengths as a photographer, he would certainly get full marks from me. I am lucky to have come across him.

Mark is more than just a great photographer, he's a genuinely great guy too! I travelled to his home to shoot and as soon as i walked in, i was made to feel comfortable and welcome. I was shown sensitivity and respect throughout the shoot and i found Mark incredibly easy and fun to work with. I really hope we get to shoot again :D

Nicola Booth

Mark is amazingly talented! He knows his craft so well and gets the very best out of you! I was made to feel so welcomed and at ease by him and his beautiful wife. I feel very lucky to have worked with Mark and I trust him completely to get the best shots! I also have to add how much fun I had shooting with Mark, I felt comfortable enough to have a laugh with him and Sharon (his amazing wife) as they really show care and compassion and create a safe atmosphere for you to be yourself! I really hope to work with Mark again soon as I am so, so happy with how his work - I walked away feeling more beautiful and confident, so thank you so very much! :)
