I worked woth Mark on a Creativity Hub Event. It was 1920's themed sonwe had a lot of fun creating images from the period. Mark was great to work with, super professional and I would be more than happy to work with him again. Great pictures from the day! Definitely recommended 👍🏻

Mark booked on to my cosplay group shoot at Fareham Studio, and jumped straight in, knew what he wanted and was super easy to work with!

We shot 3 different cosplays in a short amount of time, with a couple of different set-ups for each, but got lots of shots in, with some great results already!

Would definitely recommend Mark, and would like to work with him again!

I had the pleasure of doing some promotional work today with Mark for a fencing club.

Mark is a very professional and knowledgeable photographer and was great fun to work with.

Mark provided great communications prior and during the shoot, sticking to the brief and ensuring all the shots required were taken and gave great direction as and when it was needed.

This was my first shoot of the year and it honestly could not have gone any better!

I look forward to working with Mark again in the future and could not recommend him enough! :D

Had my second shoot with Mark, after our first being over a year ago! Wow how time flies. This time we were shooting promo / website pics for Horsham Fencing club. The pre comms were good! Mark messaged me all the info about the shoot, what clothes to bring and it was all very clear. He is really friendly, professional, easy to talk to, and was happy to let me both pose freely and also to give posing directions. Mark was experimenting with angles and some of the shoots from the back of cam look really cool! We got a little side-tracked and played around with some gel lighting too, with an alternative outfit, giving off some more bad a$$ vibes.

Would definitely recommend Mark and hope to shoot with him again soon :)

I was lucky enough to shoot with Mark at a group shoot at Fareham studios! He is a joy to work with, extremely easy-going, and gave me the freedom to pose however I wanted to.

Mark has a natural talent and eye for a good shot thanks to his experience and career as a photographer, the back-of-camera images were gorgeous. I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to work with him again.

Thank you for a lovely shoot :)

The lovely Mark booked in for another one of my 3-in-1 tuition deals recently at Neon Dreams. It was a pleasure to work with him again!

We got through lots of great sets in the time, Mark adapts quickly to lighting set ups and the pictures looked great! We got more creative this time using the gobo, gels and prisms.

Lovely guy and I look forward to seeing him again in the future.

Highly recommended :)

After working with Mark somewhat remotely when Team Black were offering our eShoot packages, I was super excited to realise we would be working with again, this time in person during our Brighton Tour where Mark booked us for tuition.

His pre shot communications were excellent, well thought out and planned in advance to help with the packing process as well as get an understanding of what he was after.

He arrived on time and was raring to go and was very enthusiastic from start to finish. His attention to detail definitely improved over the shoot and he really started getting into, even getting onto the lovely floor on the lovely streets of Brighton!

He was polite and professional throughout, taking the time to show me back of the camera images as he went. I'd highly recommend working with Mark and wouldn't hesitate to do so in the future

Thankyou for a fantastic shoot!

Absolutely thrilled when I realised had met Mark online during covid and he had booked us on our Brighton tour.

Absolute pleasure going out on location in Bristol working on some photography tips with Mark and Angel. Then returning to the Air bnb for some splendid moody boudoir shots!!!

Assisted Mark on getting the best out of the natural light available abd the Amazing Angel Black.

Once Mark was in place he took some stunning images when we checked the back of the camera and continued his own framing and best Angles to snap some quality shots.

Really enjoyable morning and a pleasure to meet such a nice guy.

Recommended to all models and other creatives..A real, talented gentleman

Hope to see you soon Mark

It was great to work with Mark at Lifelike's portfolio builder day in Hertfordshire :)

Mark has a natural eye for photography and the images captured were beautiful!

I worked with Mark in Hertfordshire at Lifelike Photography's Portfolio Builder.

Mark is considered, thoughtful and confident and it was a pleasure working with him. I really enjoyed trying out different angles and he wasn't afraid to try new things and ideas.

I'd welcome working with him again for sure!

Mark, thanks so much for coming all that way for our Portfolio Builder at the weekend, so pleased you had a good time!

Mark was terrific to work with, very considerate and polite with all 3 models on the day. I loved Mark's enthusiasm to learn, taking in the environment and responding positively to feedback from the models. His vision is superb, making the most of the settings and finding some terrific creative angles...I can't wait to see the rest of his images!

Very highly recommended from me (Y)

Would highly recommend Mark to any model out there.

I thoroughly enjoyed our 4hr shoot in Brighton which seemed to fly by. Mark is very considerate, laid back and very easy to get a long with.

I did not feel pressured or rushed as any point during the shoot and he did not ask me to do anything I did not feel comfortable performing.

We got some great shots and I hope to work with Mark again in future as he progresses with his career in photography.

Thank you Mark

I had a lovely time shooting with Mark today at Neon Dreams! He booked in for one of my 3 in 1 modelling/studio/tuition deals- he was professional in his pre comms and explained exactly what he was looking for.

On the shoot he was easy going, open to trying new things and he executed them all very well! I hope to work with Mark some time in the future and would happily recommend him to others.

Thanks Mark :)

Mark applied to the eShoot casting that J Black Photographic and I were doing during lockdqon and was a complete joy to work with. He provided me with a mood board for us to follow along with as well as hair and makeup, taking care to include every detail. His pre shoot communications were excellent, as were the comms afterwards.

I wouldn't hesitate to work with Mark in the future and would highly recommend him to models new and experienced.

Thankyou for taking part in our eShoots!

Mark applied for our eShoot casting where we provide RAW images for editing. His pre shoot communications were excellent where he also provided us with a mood board to follow.

He was clear and concise throughout which really helped the process to run smoothly.

Mark attended a 2 hour Affinity Photo editing tuition via zoom with John as well and was very attentive throughout.

We would hesitate to recommend Mark!

Thankyou for taking part in our eShoots!

Mark applied to an eShoot casting myself and Angel were doing during lockdown to aid photographers with images to edit. His communications were top notch and very reliable.

He also attended a 2 hour Affinity Photo editing tuition with me via zoom and was very attentive throughout.

I highly recommend working with Mark!

Thankyou for taking part in our eShoots!

Had a really lovely shoot today with Mk1Photography!

Pre comms were really good, and it was really clear what was expected from the shoot, prior. He also picked out some outfits that he wanted me to bring from my wardrobe album on PP, which made things a lot easier for me!

He was really easy to get along with, easy to talk to, professional, really easy going, was happy for me to pose freely and take on board my suggestions, as well as giving ideas for poses / places to stand himself!

In our 4 hour shoot we got a LOT done! We shot on location in some woods, by a lake, in a studio doing fashion, aerial silks, and aerial hoop, and finished it off with some shots with his car. The 4 hours honestly flew by! The fact that we did a huge range of stuff, made it super interesting and fun for me, and never got boring!

So, thank you for a fun shoot!

Hopefully we can work together again soon
