Mark J. Hillyer Photography (True North Studio)

Mark is truley excellent at capturing the little moments. He's friendly, professional and surprisingly invisible for a guy his size. Everyone of the hundreds of photos he took of our wedding is beautiful and worth displaying if only we had the room.

Mark was an incredible photographer - he was really flexible on timings to make sure he captured the parts of the day that were the most important to us and he got really stuck into the action. We wanted a mix of posed and candid shots to make sure we saw all the best bits of the day, and he really delivered. There are some brilliant pictures of our friends and family that had us in stitches. He was also a lot of fun so all the photos captured our personalities and we love every single one. Probably most importantly, Mark was a really nice guy. He was super easy to get on with, had a laugh with us all and we were all at ease with him - as a camera shy person he made the day so easy. We couldn't be happier!

Mark was amazing on our wedding day, he captured some beautiful pictures that we'll treasure forever. After our big day so many guests raved about how lovely he was - but also that they hardly noticed he was there, which was perfect because we wanted our pictures to be as natural as possible. The whole process of booking Mark was super easy, and we had a chat before the day about what we were looking for. He even went to the venue to scope it out, so we knew all the best spots for our pictures. I felt completely relaxed and comfortable for the whole day, and if I could do it all over I would book Mark again.

Mark was fantastic, friendly and approachable, he set everyone at ease! He captured our day perfectly and had the photos back to us quickly. We are obsessed with looking through the photos to relive our day. There are so many amazing shots that we struggling to pick out our favourites! We cannot recommend Mark enough!

Mark’s photography is incredible. We were so happy with the photos it was a huge relief when we got them back and looking through them was like being back there on the day! He captured the joy and magic of the day and blended in wonderfully with our guests and got the best out of everyone. Smashing chap and super talented.. couldn’t be happier! Can’t recommend highly enough! Thanks so much Mark.

We have been in contact with Mark for years due to multiple wedding cancellations thanks to covid, and without fail Mark has been friendly, approachable and reliable. We adore Mark's photography and put our full trust in him to capture our day naturally and he did not disappoint. Our wedding photos are stunning. Mark managed to capture the most beautifully natural moments throughout the day and even made the photos we had asked for feel very comfortable. We are not naturals in front of a camera but Mark made us feel very comfortable and the couples photos he suggested are those we will cherish. Mark fitted in to our wedding throughout the day so easily that you barely noticed him whilst he moved around and captured the day, even in a house full of women frantically getting ready. It has been a pleasure to have Mark photograph our wedding day and we are so grateful to him for capturing forever memories that we will look back on for the rest of lives.

Mark was recommended by a friend and I was so pleased he was! Mark captured our day so well, I'm sure everyone loves their wedding photos but I did not expect to love them so much. Would 100% recommend mark's services, he's also a super nice guy who we were thrilled to have around on our wedding day! Get him booked!

We had seen Mark's photos as he had been the photographer for a friend's wedding and were so impressed with how he captured the party spirit. What we loved is that he joined the day to taken real action shots, but he encouraged us to have a small shoot just the two of us on our way to the venue - these have become some of our favourite photos. We didn't want loads of staged photos with lots of family combinations, instead he found lots of lovely moments happening around the wedding and captured such lovely memories. He asked lots of questions ahead of the day to find out what we were after and who the important people were on the day. We were so delighted with the photos - he is a true pro. Thank you so much.

From start to finish Mark was amazing for our day. He was always there to capture not only the important moments, photo our dresses, the meal and the after celebration but also he captured so many of the little interactions we missed while flitting about. Mark integrated so well with our guests and the photos were excellent. We had so many great choices to work through when picking just that one for the wall it was a challenge.

Mark is a really lovely guy and an excellent photographer. If you are looking for someone to get those beautiful natural shots, he's your guy! We had to reschedule due to Covid, and Mark made it so nice and straightforward for us. Thank you for everything :)
