My wife and I found out very quickly that there is a HUGE difference between amateur vs. professional photography. From the quality of the photos to the quality of the service, Eric Marks Photography exceeded all of our expectations. Want a personalized experience? How about a special sunset shoot just hours after the ceremony. Those memories alone will be treasured for the rest of our lives, but the pics....priceless!!! Thank you Eric Marks Photography, we could not have asked for a better experience on our special day!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Eric Marks has an incredible eye for the perfect shot. He is a consummate professional. His shots were beautiful and fun! Every detail is covered. He is invisible when he should be and coaxes the best pose when he needs it. His photos of the bride are stunning and his photos of her daughter as the flower girl are so sweet.
