My goal as a photographer is to make meaningful, story-driven and timeless images—I want my clients to feel that their photos are true to them.

Weddings are real events, not photoshoots

Just as no two couples are alike, it follows that their wedding celebrations will also be unique—each with their own distinct characters, background and storyline. My job is to find that story and help tell it in an honest way.

My best work takes place in the in-between—the moments that can’t be planned or orchestrated. These images are often unposed and slightly imperfect yet carefully composed, giving the photos a quality that feels authentic and genuinely human. The best wedding photographers are first and foremost good listeners, taking time to hear what is important to their clients and using that information to inform the approach they take to documenting the celebration. I believe wedding photography falls at the intersection of art and service.

“You’d think based on his work that Mark’s photographic talent is his best attribute—but in our experience, it’s his ability to seamlessly integrate himself into the moment that makes him the best decision we made when hiring our vendors”. - Mike & Molly

“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 weddings. They are collaborative, true team players and also bring a sense of calm and ease to the energy of the day. The results lead 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, Owner of Fulton Events

The MSP Team

The MSP team is a collective of passionate visual storytellers. Each of us has our own unique vision and style, yet we are all driven by a mutual pursuit of honest, timeless and legacy-driven photography. Beyond their clear talents as technical photographers, Carl and Masao are also extremely kind, reliable and relatable. I’m thrilled to have the MSP team available to extend the same quality service at an expanded capacity.
