Friends and family would say that if you sliced Mark in half he would
have photographer written through him like a stick of rock. Since he
first picked up a camera aged 8 it's been a life long love of his. He
was lucky enough to grow up in Cornwall and would spend his weekends
photographing the landscapes & people of his home county. It also meant
that he was close to the prestigious Falmouth College of Arts where he
achieved a BA Hons in Photography in 1999.
After graduating from Falmouth he moved 'up country' and worked within
the influential family portrait brand Venture in one of their flagship
studios in the picturesque market town of Marlow where he was Style
Director. After leaving Venture he was approached to assist in the set
up of the next generation of portrait studios Imagine which was in the
beautiful Wiltshire countryside. Never one to turn down an opportunity
Mark took to this task with great gusto whilst also launching Lord &
Leverett as the ones to watch in the field of wedding photography. Lord
& Leverett broke the mould of traditional wedding photography and
offered a new and innovative approach producing natural and exciting
images of the big day. Mark was thrilled when this approach afforded him
the exalted award of Wedding Photographer of the Year for the UK 2005
amongst many others.
All good things must come to an end and it is with great sadness but
some excitement for the future that Mark will be going solo again and
looks forward to continuing his passion for photography. Mark is now
available to photograph your wedding, your family, your business
portraits and even your dog!

My relaxed unobtrusive style allows me to capture you and your guests in
a natural and informal way often without them knowing I am taking a
picture. You'll have many memories of the little moments that meant so
much.
Why not treat someone you love or even yourself to a portrait shoot?
Beautiful natural photographs of people having fun in front
of the camera. This is not a rushed studio shoot with a tight
time-frame; your family will have plenty of time to relax.
In today's world it is even more important to make a good first
impression. Let the photographs I capture represent the way you want
your company to be viewed as personable, approachable professionals.
