An Exceptional Photography Experience
The aim of my work is to create meaningful and timeless images that honor the story of your wedding day. My creative approach is fueled by human connection—always looking for story throughout the excitement of the celebration.
I believe wedding photography falls at the intersection of art and service.
My work seamlessly blends the artistic endeavor of capturing emotions and beauty with a dedicated focus on fulfilling the unique needs and desires of every couple I work with.

We believe that the most meaningful moments in a wedding day are often those that are entirely spontaneous and impossible to predict. But for those moments in the day that benefit from our support and direction, we discerningly offer delicate posing and guidance that is not overly prescriptive. The resulting balance leads our clients to feel confident and cared for while allowing them to fully experience the splendor and energy of their wedding celebration.

We believe our photographs are best preserved in print, and are proud to offer a wide variety of heirloom quality print products available directly through a personalized print storefront. Learn more about our print offerings.
“Mark is phenomenal. His discerning eye for detail and ability to capture meaningful moments that happen for a split second is so impressive. We are so grateful he worked so hard to preserve some of our most precious memories.”
“Mark knew just what to say to calm our nerves. His work is beautiful, but his personality and kindness is somehow even better”
“Mark and his team are a dream to work with in every sense of the word. Not only do they capture stunning photos of our designs and our couples, they understand the vital role they play onsite while capturing luxury weddings. They are collaborative, true team players and also bring a sense of calm and ease to the energy of the day. The results leads to our couples being thrilled with their experience and final images and our brand having a gallery that we are proud to add to our portfolio.” - Caitlin, Fulton Events

“Intimate Weddings” includes:
15 or fewer guests

FAQs
-
To reserve your wedding date, I simply need a signed contract and a non-refundable reservation fee. If your wedding requires travel, I’ll also need the expenses paid at the time of booking to ensure travel costs are as quoted.
-
My team and I currently live on the North Shore of Boston and we are available for travel worldwide. I’m a pro at fitting the essentials into a carry-on and love to see new places. Don’t let distance keep you from reaching out.
-
I have learned to document weddings well on my own and have photographed much of my career as a sole photographer. I feel very confident photographing a wedding (of any size) alone. However, hiring a second photographer can be a great way to get additional coverage of your wedding day, especially if logistics dictate photographs being needed in two places simultaneously. A second photographer is also a great asset in helping document extra photos of details and can provide more focus on family and friends while you and I might be getting portraits elsewhere. Second (and third) photographers can be added to any package.
-
While I’ll retain the copyright of the images from your wedding day, my contract gives personal print and media permissions to my clients for any non-commercial use. This means you’ll be able to download and print your photos restriction-free. If you have particular concerns about privacy, please let me know.

Establishing a great connection with my clients is essential in capturing their day well, so having some sort of contact beyond email is a prerequisite before booking me as your photographer. If you’re local to Boston’s North Shore I’d be glad to try and meet you for a cup of coffee or a cocktail. If this isn’t feasible, I’m more than happy to set up a video call. I want to make sure that you’re 100% confident that I’m the right photographer to be joining you to document your uniquely personal day.
-
I sure do, and I love it! I charge a travel fee of $250 for the added time away in addition to the actual expenses of any airfare and/or hotel stay for weddings taking place more than two hours away from my home in Beverly, MA. Most weddings that include air travel will require two nights accommodation in addition to transportation. Weddings that take place more than two hours from my home in Beverly, MA will additionally require one night's accommodation.
-
Absolutely. I’ve photographed hundreds of weddings over the last 10+ years, and love to use this experience to help my clients have a very smooth and relaxed wedding day. I pride myself on being a team-player with the other vendors you’ve hired, and am happy to communicate with them to ensure a mutually agreeable schedule based on your priorities. Please check out my blog for a detailed article on what I suggest for timelines.
-
Yes, of course! Please let me know if your venue requires a Certificate of Insurance. I am happy to provide one.
As for back-up camera equipment, I have a very large collection of cameras and always carry a backup when I am shooting, this also goes for memory cards, lenses and lighting gear.
-
Yes, each client gallery comes standard with an opt in user-friendly print storefront full of many beautifully curated products ranging from lay-flat albums to framed prints—even foiled thank-you cards and heirloom print boxes. I love it when clients choose to print their photos and am always available to help fulfill and print orders that they or other family members may be interested in making. Learn more about prints

I do not, but I have a wonderful list of videographers who I would be happy to refer you to.
