I wish I could give higher scores than a 5 because Mark was a real godsend. We live in Texas (including the bride at that time) but we were planning my daughter's wedding in Florida near the groom's hometown. It was a challenge that I wouldn't recommend to anyone again. Based solely on his website and reviews I had found on the internet, we booked Mark for our daughter's outdoor wedding in June. The couple met with him on site a few days in advance and despite intense heat and humidity, Mark was a trooper. The day of the wedding he was amazing. He appeared to be everywhere at once taking pictures, but was never in the way or intrusive. His finished photographs were unbelievably beautiful. Several people have commented that no one looks as hot and sweaty as we were in real life. ; ) Several of the pictures are so beautiful and well composed they look like they could be print ads in a wedding magazine. I would highly recommend Mark Bass to anyone looking for a wedding photographer in the Tallahassee area. Tell him Amy's Mom in Texas sent you!
