“Hi Mark,
Just thought you should know that I cried all the way
home after picking up our photos yesterday. We send a
thousand ‘thank-you’s’ your way. You are so talented.
Not only did you capture some amazing portraits, but
you really managed to capture the entire essence of
our day. Looking though the photos made me want to do
it all over again, we had so much fun. 
I’ve spent all day sorting through them, putting some
in piles to enlarge, some to reprint and send to
relatives, some to frame, some to keep in our special
wedding album….but most of all, some to put in our
‘life album’. I am so thankful to you for the actual
posed photos, you have  a real talent for bringing out
the best in people….but I am also so thankful to you
for all the candid photos…all the things I didn’t
see happening, and most of all, all the smiling faces
that I never would have seen…being at the front of
the room and all. 
I’m going to tell everybody I know to call you when
they get married.
Thank you again, and all the best.”

Thank you so so much!”

“We are glad we booked Mark as our wedding photographer

His rates were easily available and straightforward. He worked the full event from us getting ready to the dance floor. We provided dinner but not even sure if he got to eat it with all the great group table shots he took.

Communication before the day was easy. We sent him the itinerary and our desired photolist, he was helpful to make recommendations when we asked.

Mark had experience with our venue which was a plus. We were using an outdoor space and he took nice shots showing off the space, people, campfire, fireworks, sparklers, kids, and there were some fun candids. We were pleasantly surprised with all the creative shots he took. Nothing but compliments from our guests about Mark’s crowd work that night.

We were given digital drives with the pictures, there were so many pictures to choose from. By giving us the flash drives with the digital pictures we could select our favourites and print how we please. He has offered to help edit pictures if needed. Pictures were in the mail and in our hands promptly.

We would gladly recommend Mark for any wedding or event.

Thank you Mark!”

“I found Mark through a simple internet search. I felt as though I might be rolling the dice for such an important event, so I booked him for an engagement/family shoot before the wedding. After seeing the photos from that shoot, I knew he was going to be perfect for our wedding! Mark has an eye for the perfect locations to shoot, as well as knowing what lighting best suits the photos and the individuals. He is extremely easy going and personable – an absolute joy to work with. Our wedding photos turned out absolutely amazing! He provided a great mix of photos of scenery and set up, as well as staged family photos and also a ton of beautiful candids of us and all of our guests. We plan to use Mark each year moving forward for our family photos. We feel so lucky that we found such an amazing photographer!”
