My recent shoot with Mark was our first in eight years!

Of course, it felt like no time had passed at all, as we fell back into our usual routine of chatting, shooting and chatting some more.

I get along with Mark so well, so much so it felt like a catch up with an old friend.

It's always an easy, relaxed experience with plenty of humour and putting the world to rights, and i felt completely relaxed and comfortable throughout.

Mark knows exactly what it is that he's looking to shoot and is always clear in both his pre-shoot communications and during the shoot itself, as to what he wants, whilst being open to me moving freely and naturally and throwing my ideas in there.

Mark has both a great eye for light and also for knowing when he's got the shot and as a result, we moved swiftly through a few looks with ease.

Hopefully it won't be another eight years before we shoot again... i may be retired by then!... and i look forward to seeing the results which, based on our previous work, i know will be fantastic.

More than happy to recommend.

It had been a fair while but finally shot with Mark again and had a fantastic shoot. Marks pre comms and organisation are faultless and I knew exactly what outfits to bring and what type of shots were we going to create. The shoot was very productive but we also had a good catch up. Mark is professional, respectful and easy going. Needless to say Mark comes very highly recommended and it would be a pleasure to shot with him anytime.

So we organised a shoot at short notice and communication before hand was brilliant...unfortunately we couldn't go a head for good personal reasons but bless him he still paid me !! Very professional and kind ! We will get to shoot but I believe he still deserves a reference as not many are kind like him and just don't show or cancel without a care for the model... which this man is different...thank you it's nice to know and see there is still genuine people out there

I had a fantastic experience working with Mark during a half-day session at a studio in Liverpool as part of my NW tour. From start to finish, his communication was exceptional, both before and during the shoot. Mark is incredibly talented, professional, and an absolute gentleman to work with. We explored a wide range of styles and looks throughout the session, and his lighting setups were simply stunning, allowing us to capture many amazing images. Four hours just flew by—it wasn’t long enough! I would love to work with Mark again and highly recommend him to other models.

Thank you so much Mark!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Mark during a one-on-one up too Art Nude session at Hampton Street Studio. From the moment he arrived, it was clear that he was both punctual and respectful, creating a comfortable atmosphere for our collaboration.

Mark demonstrated a clear vision for the shoot while also being open to ideas and suggestions. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made the experience enjoyable and relaxed. He was attentive to the details and ensured we achieved the best results.

I highly recommend Mark for any photography project. His talent and approach make him a wonderful choice for any creative endeavor.

Thank you!

Hampson St Studio

Mark contacted me regarding studio hire, obviously this was no problem at all. The communication before the shoot was fantastic, dealt with and booked quickly. He arrived at the studio and being first time in a new place can't be easy, but he was relaxed and ready to shoot already having images ideas to hand knowing exactly what he was looking to capture. He was always respectful to both the model and the studio and could tell he was going to capture some amazing images with the good vibe he was giving. I gave him a few tips to try which he took the offer up so hope this helps with his future shoots. During the shoot he made sure the model was happy at all times, didn't overshoot sets and got through several changes. I recommend all models to work with mark, as you can see from his portfolio you will create stunning images. Mark is always welcome at the studio and hope to see him again soon.

I had a great first shoot with Mark at Libre Studio in Liverpool. From first pre-shoot communication through to meeting, he was professional, courteous and kind. Mark is highly organised and creative, he had a vision which he wanted to achieve, and provided me with a moodboard for inspiration which made it much easier for me to come up with outfit looks and desired vibe. Mark is very easy-going, friendly and a pleasure to create with.

He's an awesome photographer, and I thoroughly enjoyed our fast paced and energetic shoot, which allowed for so many outfit changes and variety of looks. The 4 hours flew by as we worked our way through the ideas, and Mark took many fantastic and powerful shots. I particularly enjoyed the fashion element, as I don't get to shoot this genre often enough, so was a real pleasure to experiment with style and different looks.

Highly recommended and I look forward to working together again.

Mark contacted me to arrange a shoot for himself and Lady T after seeing one of my castings for our remaining July availability. All pre comms with Mark were great and he kept me very up to date with all his plans for the shoot.

On the day of the shoot Mark arrived on time with everything he needed for a great days shooting. It is clear that Mark is a very established and talented photographer and he worked really hard alongside Lady T to create lots of wonderful images. During his time here he was very respectful of our location and very happy to ask if he ever needed anything.

Mark is polite, friendly and easy to talk to. We would highly reccomend booking a shoot with him and we very much look forward to seeing him again soon! Thank you so much Mark!!

I had a wonderful time meeting and working with Mark for the first time yesteday at Basford Hurst Cottage.

His primary aim for the shoot was a health and wellness/lifestyle-based shoot, With some extra time planned for what I like to call "creative tittery".

The time flew and he was so brilliantly clear with his aims, providing a mood board and shoot plan for the afternoon.

I'm really pleased that he was pleased, and I'm also pleased that I am pleased...

Thank you for an excellent session. Highly recommend shooting with you!

I had the pleasure of working with Mark at Quest Studios in London. After a six-year hiatus from photography, Mark returned, and I felt honored to be his first model post-break. It was remarkable how effortlessly he resumed shooting, considering his extended break from the camera. Mark’s positivity and enthusiasm were infectious as we collaborated on portraits, resulting in some stunning images. It was a fun and successful shoot, and I highly recommend working with him.

Had a brilliant shoot with Mark this week in York!

I don't think you get a more straight talking, down to earth guy. I was comfortable from the moment we met. He has a great sense of humour, speaks from the heart and to the point! That meant conversation wasn't dry and there was a good vibe going to bounce off of.

Pre comms were superb. On shoot day, we spoke about what we wanted to do order wise, outfits wise and make up and just got to it. Time really flew! We got through a fair few sets in a short time. I was really impressed with Mark letting me have an input and trying some weird and new ideas! He knows what he's doing with the camera and I LOVE the images created.

It was short and sweet this time, but has left me with so many more ideas, so I would most certainly be up again!

Would highly recommend!

God it has been waaaaaay too long since our last shoot! I’ve worked with Mark an insane amount of times so I always know what to expect, lots of talking and coffee drinking and awesome images, and this shoot was no exception 😊

Only difference was this time was that we shot in my home with a one light set up or natural light, it was so good to finally see how Mark works outside of a studio environment and he just isn’t phased so I’ll have to get him on location at some point, he works just as quickly with amazing results, I’m just blown away by the results!

Such a relaxed and fun shoot with a good amount of talking ad set changes, so of course I still highly recommend Mark to anyone whether they are building their portfolios, or want a fun day.

Thanks for a groovy day, and hopefully see you again before too long,

Shot with Mark yesterday at his studio in Leeds, pre-communication was excellent including details of where I was going to meet him and what was to be expected for the shoot.

I absolutely loved Marks workflow of 40 shots per set, meaning we could rattle through a huge variety of sets very quickly.

During the shoot we had classic rock music playing, much to my enjoyment!

The images on the back of the camera look fab and I look forward to seeing the results :)

Thank you

I had my first shoot with Mark on Tuesday at his studio in Leeds and boy was I impressed!

Pre coms were absolutely top notch, shoot style, wardrobe, mood boards levels and rates negotiated and settled with minimal fuss... perfect!

In just over 3 hours we nailed over 12 looks and wardrobe/styling changes with ease.

Marks studio is perfect for wardrobe changes and easy access to the shooting area.

Mark has a great sense of humour which in turn led the shoot into a very enjoyable, fun afternoon.

Mark has a distinctive creative style and a keen eye to capture the look he's after.

Would I recommend Mark?........ YES IN A HEARTBEAT! Superb photographer and superb hospitality A**

A total joy to pose for....More photographers like this please!

Absolute pleasure to work with Mark on a low key fashion set, great comms from the offset and throughout, helped direct me to the studio and greeted us outside! Brilliant studio space with changing room and a huge selection of coffee and tea ;) bonus! He knows exactly what he wants from a shoot and expects to make the most of the shoot which is brilliant, we smashed through 6 sets of fashion outfits and the images came back rapidly and look amazing, really happy with them, he's a gent, a professional and full of charisma and humor! Highly advise you work with him and get some of his amazing images under your belt! I learned a lot from his wealth of knowledge and as always moving forward! Brill shoot thanks again!

I had a shoot with mark earlier today and I am very glad they he decided to answer my casting call. He was quick to give me all the relevant details and info for the shoot and from the minute I arrived at the studio he was welcoming and friendly to both me and my partner. The shoot went by smoothly and efficiently and the images are fantastic. Mark is a professional in his photography and really knows his lighting and set ups to get that stunning and striking editorial look. I look forward to another shoot in August and I couldn't recommend mark highly enough.
