I had my first shoot with mark on Friday. Mark made was very friendly and welcoming making the shoot fun and relaxed.

We had discussed various images we were going to shoot before hand and made the final decisions on the day,picking out 8 different styles.

Mark knew exactly what he wanted from the images so the shoot ran smoothly and efficiently.

I'm really excited to see the end results.

I had my first shoot with Mark on Monday and what a lovely day it was. He was just a joy to shoot with and really took a stress away from such a stressful tour.

Lots of coffee (as per usual) and lots of giggles and weird faces, the time just flew in. He is a lovely guy, super professional. He had fantastic ideas and is an all round awesome photographer.

I highly recommend to any model, I cannot wait to shoot with him again!

Much love,

Eve

Had my second shoot with Mark & I can honestly say I will always jump at the chance to work with him again and again. I love Mark's whole style and approach and the images were amazing, I don't know how to possibly choose from them all! We got through seven looks in less than two hours and totally nailed it! I'm so happy and I hope Mark loves the images as much as I do. He's to another rockin' shoot!

Had a brilliant shoot with Mark earlier in the week, brilliant photographer and a good laugh too!

Shot many different styles in the 3.5 hours I was in the studio, Gliding from different lighting sets ups effortlessly.

Doesn't make the best brew in the world, but I can let him off as there was chocolate digestives to compensate haha.

I would highly recommend working with Mark, and would love to work with him again, only a short travel to his studio, and he also picked me up from the station and dropped me back too!

Lovely guy, great photographer and brilliant images

Thanks Mark

Very talented and amazing man to work with, Mark knows his style and is extremely professional in his approach. Have never had someone arrange a shoot or get final edits to me so quickly and smoothly. I liked one of Mark's shots from our shoot so much I have chosen it to be my cover image. I do very much hope I get the opportunity to work with Mark again and would not hesitate to recommend him to others!

Saturday 11th March saw me travel for the first of what I hope to be many shoots with Mark in his own studio on the outskirts of Leeds.

Mark was note perfect from the word go - communicative, expressive, jam-packed full of great initiatives and really, really supportive of any ideas I brought up as we went along.

We completed four looks in next to no time, with Mark bringing the considerable forces under his command to bear with practiced ease. The time simply flew by, helped in no small part by Mark's wicked sense of humour and a superb soundtrack in the background.

And as if that wasn't enough, he was also kind enough to ferry me to and from the mainline station! Thanks once more for a great experience Mark - very much looking forward to the next one already.

Mark's a legend. No fuss, no messing about, organising the shoots are always straightforward, working the shoots are always amazing fun and you get edited images back pronto! It's a fab studio with a boss little dressing room (which includes everything a model might need!) the coffees great aaaaaand the music and mark is brilliant at lighting! What more could ya want?

I worked with Mark at his lovely Leeds studio! Communication was great throughout and I felt fully clued up on all items I needed to bring and the ideas we were trying to achieve! Mark was very hospitable when I arrived, providing me with all the tea I could drink! We produced some fantastic images and I wouldn't hestitate to work with Mark again soon.

I had another shoot with Mark yesterday which I'd been really looking forward to for a while!

Pre-comms were spot on, Mark is great at gathering and sharing ideas and getting things organised, he was even kind enough to pick me up from the station!

Mark is really great to work with, he knows exactly what he wants and he only needs to take one look at outfits before he's got the lighting and everything planned to suit. We covered 5 different looks in the evening, mainly based around fashion/fashion nude with hair and makeup by DorotaMUA. Mark really has an eye for capturing the shot perfectly and does so efficiently before moving on to the next set. For the final look of the evening we did one of Dorota's 'creative looks' which was something completely unusual and included bodypaint!

Mark is an absolute pro and had all the proofs uploaded before we had even packed up left the studio!

So not only is he a great photographer, but he's a really nice guy too. Oh and he stocks my favourite kind of tea in the studio so not sure what more I could ask for really! Thanks for another awesome shoot!! :D

Yet again...another stupendous shoot with Mark. This must be our 4th I think now.... and each one just gets better and better. It's very true about the success rate when building a rapport with your fellow creatives. You know what they like and they know what you can do so it becomes effortless to create images you are both really proud of. Plus the fact you feel comfortable and at ease with them and happy to free-flow when the photographer allows you to do so.

Mark's a genuinely lovely person, allows a brew on hand when I arrive. So laid back during the shoots, allows time for changes in makeup and styling which is really appreciated as it allows me to change up looks to achieve fresh images.

HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, thanks so much Mark

Relaxed and friendly shoot with Mark in his studio which is large and comfortable and well equipped. Spacious and clean dressing room which is handy when you have a lot of costumes. Mark turned the images around quickly as wel, which is a nice professional touch and overall the experience of modelling at his studio was one which I would thoroughly recommend. Mark is a professional photographer and understands and practices his craft with skill and care and the right amount of attention to detail

Eeeeek! Metal Mark (that's what I called him in my phone from our first shoot) haha!

Excellent pre comms as always, and arranged everything in only a few emails and months in advance, coffees and awesome music throughout our shoot and introduced me to a few new bands (playing Hailstorm to death now!)

It's brilliant working with Mark as we get sooo much done on our shoots from beauty portraiture, fashion, lingerie, nudes, and I my personal favourite fashion-nude :) Mark only has to glance at what I'm wearing to know exactly what he wants to do with the lights and bam we're shooting away, with lots of chatting between poses! Always a super relaxed shoot with quick breaks.

Already had shots send over to nosey at and I think we topped the last shoot, aces!

Really love working with Mark and he still comes highly recommended, truly can't wait for the next shoot, and see how we beat this time :)

Thanks again, see you soon,

Mark is such an awesome individual! Immediately felt relaxed in his company, got chatting straight away and found a real affinity for all music rock and metal, not to mention an artistic connection pretty sharpish. We shot yesterday at his studio in Leeds for the evening, going for full on spontaneous mix of fashion to nude styles, shooting about seven looks in near enough under three hours - he works smoothly, quick and precise with the camera, always taking care to ask if the model comfortable or needs a cuppa. Such a dude.

So friendly, full of awesome music stories and an amazing eye for creating gorgeous images! Can't wait to work with this fella again - soon with any luck. Highly recommended to all models :)

Had a second wonderful shoot with Mark last week!... We booked the shoot with ease as before and talked through ideas etc.... This is always awesome for me as I have an idea of what to pack! .....

As before the whole shoot flew by!.... as always nice and relaxed with a good flow of giggles and images!

And we got some really awesome images.... the nice thing is Marks has his ideas and you also input your own ideas for a real collaboration!

Still a big recommendation from me to all models.

A genuinely nice guy!!! And a really talented photographer!

Thanks again Mark! Until the next time.... I'll remember to to keep my arms more considerate to your framing ;)

Had a great shoot with Mark yesterday after we had to reschedule in December. Pre-shoot communications were great. Ideas we put out there and upon arrivals it proved that Mark was super easy to work with more thoughts discussed.

We used an amazing MUA he works with regularly and it was nice knowing they trusted each other to achieve what they both wanted too.

It was fab working with Mark, and would recommend to anyone!

I had a lovely catch-up shoot with Mark! We had scheduled a shoot earlier in the year but neither of our healths were up to the task, especially Mark's, so we rescheduled. Our shoot went well and we got through various sets, which Mark kindly offered to edit when I made a few picks, and delivered them only a few days after the shoot! It was just nice to catch up with what seems an old friend I hadn't seen for ages, and as we shot I thoroughly enjoyed myself because we were able to chat, joke and laugh about different things. I would highly recommend working with Mark, because he always delivers what he sets out to do, treats the models with courtesy, and is simply fun to work with!

Hannah Elle

Absolutely loved shooting with Mark yesterday and would jump at any other opportunity. The communication beforehand was brilliant and I knew exactly what we were doing, how Mark works and also had a mood board to work to. Mark arrived early before me and made me a brew whilst we discussed lighting, settings and outfits.

From the get go we worked really well and got through each set really quickly considering how much we came out with! It was the best music I've ever had so far on a shoot which helped us both relax and have a bit of a natter about and the images in the end were amazing. Can't wait to see the final images- Thank you so much Mark!!

Yet another top shoot with mark yesterday at his studio. He never fails to impress! I always look forward to working with him and I'm always impressed by his lighting work... so, this time, I went all out in creating some crazy avant garde looks which of course mark captured and brought out beautifully.

Mark is always a true joy to work and respectful, which makes the shoots super relaxed and easy going, with a bit of a chuckle in between.

I hope it won't be too long until we work together again... and now you've got a hairdryer to add all the other hair styling products , I don't mind saturating my hair for the next one haha.

Thanks again for another epic shoot!

Extremely fun and enjoyable shoot with Mark. Excellent pre comms, studio, lighting equipment and attention to detail. Very easy to work with, I was especially pleased with the lighting technique and similar idea spectrum. Plus great taste in music. Would define you work with again, professional and highly reccomended

My first shoot with Mark was a good one!

Mark has his own lovely studio in Bramley and was in there ready for my arrival with the heaters on and kettle boiling!

We created some great images. Mark knows how to create effective lighting to make you look good and gave great pointers.

He also helped me get away from my lifsettle commercial ways to bring out my 'resting bitch face' to create those moody images.

Would recommend shooting with Mark :)
