About

I have been in business for over 20 years. I have extreme attention to detail in lighting, editing/retouching and making sure my clients look their best in front of the lens. I shoot tethered to my MacBook in the studio and on location. This is very helpful for my clients, they are able to see the results on the spot. I take time to get to know my clients, it's not just about photography, it's about building relationships. I work well with all personality types and I am great at getting people comfortable, this ensures more great images to choose from. Doing what you love is freedom. Loving what you do is happiness. I love all aspects and genres of photography and post production. I do my best to get it right in camera, but there is a lot of magic that happens in post production. I love seeing the final product and hearing the positive feedback from my clients.

Our company needed headshots of its Executive Vice President in less than 24 hours and Mark was able to accommodate our needs and responded very quickly. Mark came in, set up, did the photo shoot, and was out in about an hour. The EVP was very happy with the shoot, we had the retouched photos the very next day and met our deadline. Very professional and easy to work with; Mark was flexible and attentive.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is very competitive. I am always open to communication regarding budget when starting a new client. I do my best to work within their budget.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once the communication process starts, I find out what my clients specific needs are. Then we discuss what the images will be used for, what type of end result they are hoping for, how many final images/files they will need. We discuss whether we will do a session in the studio, on location and lighting for the project.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am very involved with the PPA. They have ongoing online classes, breakout sessions, tips, tricks and many other avenues for staying current and up to date.
