Hey, Im Mark

international wedding photographer

Based out of Vancouver & Toronto, Canada

I’m all about the non-traditional, self-identified badass couples who aren’t afraid to be bold, do it their way, and have one hell of an amazing wedding.

Im breaking free from the cringy, bullshit wedding poses and instead, photographing the real you. Crack a joke in the middle of the wedding ceremony? - hell ya! Rent a classic car and show up in style? - sounds awesome! Climb up a mountain and get married at the edge of a cliff? - yup!

This is your wedding. Your connection. The real you.

I’m stoked you’re here. From the first call to the final frame, I can’t wait to get to know you.

Engagements

A Boutique Studio by Design

If you're looking for a cookie-cutter wedding photography experience. We are not for you.


No hard feelings. That's just not what we do around here.

………

We intentionally limit the number of weddings we take on, allowing us to obsessively focus on every planned and unplanned detail of your experience. This approach enables us to offer a boutique wedding photography service, tailored perfectly to you and your special day.

Our obsession with perfecting your experience is key to capturing those authentic, unguarded moments. It's about truly understanding you, seamlessly integrating into your wedding alongside your friends and family, and discreetly capturing those intimate exchanges when you least expect it.

Simply put, we pride ourselves on perfecting every aspect of your experience rather than the number of weddings we photograph!

Your wedding is not a photoshoot

The purpose of my work is to create snapshots of memories…

That bring you back in time,

Photos that earn a place on your wall,

Photos that spark curiosity,

And carry real emotions.

This goes beyond remembering some stupid poses and trendy gimmicks. It's about capturing the spontaneous, unscripted moments that are uniquely yours.

That's what wedding photography means to me.

It's about photographing the REAL you, the REAL moments, and the REAL connection that you have on the best day of your life.

Traveling Photographer Based in Vancouver & Toronto

Describing my love for wedding photography isn't easy, because it's about so much more than creating beautiful photos. I believe the success of my work is measured in how vividly you relive the love you felt, whether it's 10, 20, or 30 years from now, as you reminisce over your wedding photos with your partner.

Will my images transport you back to a time when you were young, madly in love, and brimming with emotion on your wedding day? In 20 years, will you open your wedding album with pride and remember what it felt like to see your spouse at the end of the aisle? Have I created a meaningful impact in your life, one that you'll cherish forever?

These are the HUGE expectations I have for myself, and I love the unique and creative challenge of answering these questions for every couple I work with.

Testimonials

  • Holly & Jacob

    Leading up to the wedding Mark contacted us multiple times to check in and offer help with planning. He even went above his line of duty as a photographer to help us schedule the day to make sure everything was done and we got all the photos we could want. Mark is very easy to work with and made us feel great throughout the day. He made everyone feel very comfortable in front of the camera, even our dog approved. We got a preview of our photos back in less than 2-weeks. I’m very hard on photos of myself, but I was blown away by the pictures he was able to capture

  • Fatemeh & Ali

    Mark and his wonderful assistant Danielle were my wedding's photographers a couple of days ago. I couldn't be happier with their service. Mark and Danielle were incredibly fun, nice, creative and professional. Their energy definitely was an addition to our wedding. They showed up on time and stayed the whole night until I asked them to put their camera down ( almost 11 hours). From the first moment, I felt I knew them for so long as they were so friendly and fun. Even after the wedding, our guests complimented Mark and told me how impressed they were by his dedication and personality.

  • Sam & Amit

    Mark and his team were punctual, incredibly professional, and most importantly kind and personable. On a day that can feel stressful, Mark kept us smiling, laughing, and at ease! Multiple family members and guests commented on how great Mark was to work with.

    Our pictures were beyond our expectations and beautifully captured our personalities and our wedding day. We still get teary eyed looking over the pictures and reminiscing of our special day. We had an incredible experience with Mark and can’t recommend him enough!

  • Sarah & Matt

    Mark was one of our most favourite vendors we worked with for our wedding. He genuinely cares about his clients and puts his full self into his photography services. He is super personable- so much so that he even left an impression on our guests who all commented on how friendly Mark was!

    Mark's priority was making us feel relaxed and in the moment rather than stiff and posed. Of course, this translates in his work- photos that are so bright, romantic and real! We have nothing but great things to say about our photography experience with EightTwoFour and will highly recommend Mark's services to anyone we can!

  • Alex & Diana

    I couldn't be more pleased with the experience I had with Mark as our wedding photographer. From the moment we met him, we knew he would be the perfect fit for capturing our special memories. He was professional, attentive, and truly listened to our vision for the shoot. Mark was also incredibly responsive to any questions we had leading up to the day of the shoot.

    Mark's thoughtful, personal approach and exceptional skill have left us absolutely thrilled. Thank you, Mark, for your amazing work and talent!

  • Kaliegh & Matt
