Testimonials and Reviews

"I was very happy to model for Mark. I checked in with some previous people he had shot with and it was all positive things said!
We shot at my home studio and then at the local forest. Mark is a fast shooter and is happy for you to take the lead in posing although he had some great ideas.
Looking forward to seeing you again on the next one in April!
Highly recommend" Poppy Haskell (Studio and Wood Shoot - March 2025)


"Mark is so great to work with, I absolutely hate being photographed and we laughed ALL day and got some shots that even I can be proud of
Mark was very open to my ideas and encouraged my own creativity as well as making suggestions himself - it was a real collaboration and I would highly recommend him without hesitation!" Jennifer Lina Vocals (New Forest Shoot February 2025)

"Working with Mark on my photo shoot was a brilliant experience. He gave me good direction and put me at ease, achieving exactly what we set out to do! He was extremely accommodating of my own ideas but also suggested some really creative ideas to make the photos even more special. The final pictures are fantastic and a credit to Mark’s eye for detail and skill.
I have every confidence in Mark for future work and can thoroughly recommend him" Helen Spooner (Emsworth Harbour Shoot January 2025)
