I had the pleasure of working with Mark as he photographed Jodie and Darren's wedding at New Close Farm. As their celebrant I saw first hand how skilled he is at capturing the magic moments of the day. Very talented, super chilled and great eye for detail. More...

Couldn’t recommend enough! Absolutely amazing, our photos are fab and so many guests commented on how lovely Mark was, really made an effort with everyone and no one was made to feel uneasy with excessive awkward poses which is something we had wanted to avoid! Our day was perfectly captured as it happened and the pictures totally tell the story of the day. Thank you Mark More...

Mark was our wedding photographer and we cannot speak highly enough of him and his work! He documented our day in a way which we certainly recommend. From arrival, throughout the ceremony, pre lunch interactions, and until almost the end of the evening reception, he has captured so many memories, had we chosen an old fashioned photographer, we would not have to keep. A friend recommended Mark and we were not disappointed!!!Yvonne and Alan More...

We found Mark by searching online for photographers local to us and I’m so pleased we did! Lovely, genuinely friendly guy who we were happy to have around all day & into the evening. Half of the time we forgot he was even there, he made us feel so relaxed. His style of photography is exactly what Laura & Lewis wanted for their special day. Thank you so much for capturing the day and putting everyone at ease xx More...

Mark, from the word go, was friendly, professional and relaxed. We met a few weeks before our wedding, discussed our required photos, other alternatives and Marks ideas. Suffice to say the wedding day was all we had dreamed of and Mark captured it beautifully; our guests and the two of us in a natural, loving way. Thank you Mark, we couldn’t have asked for more. Lisa-Jayne and Andrew Farmer. More...

Mark was our photographer when we were recently married at Bowburn Hall. He is a friendly, funny and professional man who put everybody at ease. Mark captured our day perfectly and when we saw the photographs a week ago, we couldn't have been happier. Our family and friends have all commented on how lovely they are. We also loved the video set to our first dance and it brought tears to our eyes. Thanks to Mark, we have memories of our wonderful day that will last forever and we would recommend him in a heartbeat. More...

Mark was the photographer at my wedding in Aug last year. He was amazing and very accommodating of everything my husband and I wanted. Our wedding was based in consent and he was very happy to travel from South Shields to the venue and arrived early to take pictures of my bridal party.Mark went out of his way to ensure our day was very special and we had an amazing selection of photographs to remember our special day. I highly recommend this photographer. More...

From start to finish, Mark was very professional but in an informal, relaxed manner. He made us and our guests feel very comfortable throughout the day and night and managed to capture some of the more reluctant guests! Excellent photographs, we would highly recommend! More...

Could not recommend Mark enough! The photos we received were absolutely beautiful, we're so happy with them!
None of the photos felt awkward to take and we had a lot of guests commenting on how down to earth Mark is.
We had such a fun day with him, even though he wouldn't drink more than one cuppa at the crack of dawn!
If I could plan the day all over again, I would definitely choose Mark to be our photographer, without a doubt!
Love ya Dilbo! �

What do you love most about your job?
The sheer excitement and natural shots from my clients. I love Weddings & Photographing them gives me great pleasure.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I didn’t get behind a camera until much later in life when I started photographing pretty much anything at college, my favourite being street photography. I'd develop the images in the dark room whilst attending my graphic design course. It turns out that people are a lot more interesting to photograph. After photographing my first wedding, which was an an incredibly daunting yet exciting experience, I fell in love with documenting weddings. I love the emotional roller coaster of every wedding day and feel compelled to tell stories with my images. The camera is just the tool I use to capture what I see and feel on every wedding day – I really do shoot from the heart.
Why should our clients choose you?
For most of your day I won’t interrupt you, ask you to pose unnaturally or ask you to do anything just for the sake of the camera. I’ll ensure you stay relaxed and enjoy your day spending quality time with your family and friends – just as it should be. Aswell as being a fun, easy to get along with, personable photographer.
