I shot with Mark this weekend whilst I was down in Birmingham at Aura photographic studio. The two hours just flew by, Mark has a great eye for detail and showed up with some stunning outfits and accessories. He had already preplanned some ideas he had which really worked well and we created some beautiful images. He is very professional as always, really easy to get along with and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. I would love to work with him again in the future :)

I had my second shoot with Mark. This time we went to take some outdoor fashion photos in a very lovely place. As he already had an Idea for the perfect shot, he gave me good direction and we ended up with some stunning photos.

After that we went to do some boudoir photos and again Mark had some great ideas that's why it was very easy for me.

Mark is a very friendly, chatty, interesting, creative and knowledgeable photographer.

He has a good eye for details and light so it's very easy for him to make beautiful photos.

Thank you Mark!

Would definitely recommend and I'm looking forward to work with you again.

It was fantastic to work with Mark during my Studio day at Aura Photographic Studio!

This was our first shoot together and with limited pre comms, but even so Mark immediately made sure I was at ease, knew the plan and we got straight in to capturing some OUTSTANDING shots!

I hope to work with Mark again

Highly Recommended!

Had the pleasure of meeting Mark today when he came to the studio to work with AnetaEve. Mark arrived well on time and all pre comms where good. Mark is a very experienced photographer which of course shows in his work and his friendly approach with models. Of course thoroughly recommended by me to anyone wanting to work with Mark. Thank you for coming along and hope to see you again soon. Best regards Andy.

Wow – what can I say, what a great photographer Mark is. I had an absolute pleasure of working with him on my Studio Day at Studio Fifty Eight, thoroughly enjoyed our shoot from the very start to finish.

Mark was very well prepared with lots of ideas which really helped to use our two hour slot to the maximum. We were literally flying through different outfits and poses, we could have definitely shot for several more hours!

Mark is very kind, professional, with great sense of humour, made me feel comfortable at all times, just an absolute joy to be around. We had a lot of fun shooting together and managed to produce some awesome images. I am really happy with the shots I have seen so far and cannot wait to see more.

Highly, highly recommended! Mark, thank you so much and I do hope our paths will cross again in the future, I would love to work with you again xx

I contacted Mark regarding a shoot on a TF basis after seeing his work and loved it. Communication was great and within a couple of days, he had a studio booked and sent over lots of ideas for the shoot.

On the day, Mark was punctual, polite and I was very pleased with the studio he had chosen. With starting back into modelling after a near enough 10 year break from it, I was quite nervous and lacked abit of confidence in myself but Mark made me feel at ease, comfortable and is very professional and we worked to the levels I felt comfortable with. He has a great sense of humour and time flowed nicely.. No infact scrap that, time went far too quickly! I was also impressed with the amount of props Mark brought along, which gave the images added depth and story.

I am absolutely in love with the finished images and they exceeded my expectations. A true professional through and through. I without a doubt recommend Mark to any professional and new models and I sincerely hope I get to work with him again. Thank you once again Mark :-)

Worked with Mark again on a 1-2-1 group night at Aura Photography Studios last month. I've worked with Mark on many different Photography events and every time we work together, time just flies by. (It was a pleasure to see you again Mark!) Mark creates beautiful images and has a keen eye for photography. He is a kind individual with a professional attitude towards the model and is really easy to talk to.

I shot with Mark today at Catfish studio, and I can honestly say that I had a wonderful time.

The pre-communication with Mark was absolutely spot on, he ensured that I was comfortable working up to the levels he had in mind and then sent me a beautiful mood board full of inspiration for our shoot.

I knew exactly what to bring, how to look and how to do my hair for our shoot, so I felt totally prepared.

On the day, Mark was even more fantastic! He very kindly picked me up for the shoot and I immediately found him extremely easy to talk to.

Once we got to the studio, I was shown around and made to feel very comfortable. Time really just flew by and we really captured some really gorgeous images.

Mark is an incredibly respectful, kind and attentive photographer. He’s extremely knowledgeable and professional, I’m really chuffed with the outcome of the shoot!

I’d recommend Mark any day, & I definitely hope to be seeing him again!

Thank you Mark for a brilliant day!

Time seemed to fly by, as they say time flies when you’re having fun. Great at giving some direction to find the perfect photo, however also allows you to do your own thing.

Extremely happy with the images received also very speedily! Would recommend definitely

I was so pleased to be working with Mark again, this time on an evening group shoot at Aura studio.

Mark is always a joy to work with. Super easy going, friendly and full of great ideas for images. Once again I found him so easy to work with and I was really pleased with the images we managed to capture.

Despite being on a time restriction and being a bit rushed in our slots, we managed to work together well and produce some lovely stuff! Mark is a really nice person, chatty and a really talented photographer.

I adore the images that have been posted so far! Highly recommended from me and I hope we manage to work together again when I’m in the area :)

I got to shoot with Mark at Darklens recently, on a shoot with Tinkerbella - he has the ability to capture such wonderful shots, and back of camera images looked amazing!

Mark is a very respectful and thoughtful photographer who has a beautiful knack of using the available and studio light effortlessly - his way around the camera is just stunning!

I do hope to work with this epic fellow before I retire :) cannot recommend Mark enough to all models and studios....wow!
