Love Mark! He can shoot any feel you want for your wedding. I wanted elegant and natural pictures (Me: "Mark, I want to feel like we were getting married on a cloud."; Mark: "Yeah, I gotcha.") He's funny and relaxed, brought two other photographers, and posted quickly afterward to his blog and an online service so we could see enjoy the pictures only two weeks later.
The best advice we got from our planner was to do engagement photos so that we would feel more comfortable on our wedding day (kissing on demand, being affectionate in front of the camera, etc.), and it was such a great idea. Mark both had his own ideal shots and took my requests and incorporated them, so we have a mix of poses and looks that are the traditional wedding shots and some that look more specific to us as a couple.

Mark was absolutely amazing to work with. He captured every moment beautifully. The day of our wedding was misty and overcast, but you would not be able to tell that from the pictures. He captured each personalized detail of our reception and wedding (there were a lot of them). I am so happy with my pictures and can't wait to display them forever!

Mark is THE BEST! He's super responsive and great at what he does. He's fun and creative and a joy to work with. He was willing to work with us every step of the way and even found a way to shoot our portraits in the DARK because of how late our ceremony was. He also came to my moms house with only a days notice so he could shoot us getting ready. They are willing to go all over the country to shoot, but we were so luck to have them in our own backyard.

Mark shot our wedding and we could not ask for anything better! We booked him after seeing pictures from a few friends' weddings that he had shot. What we received amazed us. He is extremely professional, and has a keen eye for special moments. Photography was one of the most important decisions in our wedding day because we knew it would be one of the few tangible things we would have left after the day was over. What we did not expect was getting a preview of photos just a few hours after the reception was over! What an amazing thing to flip through a few of your most special moments the morning after your big day. Absolutely recommend him to everyone!

Mark did a fantastic job of photographing our wedding- we couldn't be more pleased with the results. If you're looking for a down to earth photography who is not only traditional but very creative when it comes to wedding photography, then this is the guy for you! Mark captured our elopement perfectly and really made the whole process enjoyable. If you're in the Atlanta area and you want quality photos at a great price, then I would definitely recommend Leah and Mark photography.

Mark and Leah were great on my wedding day! Mark and his assistant, Joy, were incredibly nice and made me feel very comfortable (which is saying something as I don't normally like my picture taken). We're still waiting for the photos to come back, so I can't comment on those (I'm sure they will be great), but in terms of service Mark and Leah did a fantastic job!

From our very first meeting with Leah and Mark, we knew that we had found the right photographer for our wedding -- very responsive and professional, with a great approach.
Despite the high volume of work they are doing, we found it very easy to schedule both our initial meeting and our engagement session - making us feel that we were the focus and priority.
This team (Mark, Joy and Intern Andre) not only evoked a sense of confidence in the caliber of their work, but were also a team that we would enjoy grabbing a beer with -- genuine, awesome people even without a camera in sight.
It wasn't just us that was impressed - Our guests continue to express to us how much they loved our photographer, and that the photobooth they provided was a highlight of their evening.
Our confidence was delivered against as we received a stunning set of photos well in advance of the timeline we expected -- showcasing how Leah and Mark & Co. are focused on quality of experience and output, over-delivering on both.

LOVED working with Mark and his team. They are friendly, personable, and excellent at what they do. My photos turned out gorgeous but real, and really captured the small moments of the event as well as the beautiful posed ones.

I hate to leave a review that's anything but positive, but I think this is fair. I was so, so excited to have Leah and Mark for our wedding photography.
On the plus side, the video and video editing was wonderful. On the day of the wedding, they arrived at the venue on time and stayed for the contracted period, which was quite long. They had a good presence throughout the wedding and were patient with guests.
Sadly, I was upset at the mediocrity of our wedding pictures compared to the photos they advertise. There are a few gems in there, but I've seen friends pay much less and receive much better pictures. Throughout the long process of getting the pictures I was as polite and patient as I could be, even when they made highly upsetting mistakes, but I felt like I was the one annoying them! Not to mention just before my ceremony, the main photographer was actually snarky about me to the other photographers (I assume he thought I couldn't hear?), which was a slap in the face since I was trying hard to help them feel comfortable in a high-stress moment.
All of this sucks because based on our early interactions I had happily recommended them to various people I know, but now I cannot recommend them. Honestly, all it would have taken for me to overlook my underwhelming wedding pictures would have been some indication they cared about me or my satisfaction as a customer.

Leah and Mark lost many pictures from our wedding. All of the brides portraits with her wedding party and ALL of the family pictures are gone. They told us in a handwritten note in the mail with no explanation except that they're just gone. Although Mark keeps saying he'll make some amends, he has yet to act. Also, he seems to be responding to emails and calls when he knows we're not available. Our wedding was in July and it has yet to be resolved.
He forgot what portraits we wanted at the wedding. Although some pictures were amazing, many posed pictures were blown out and out of focus. Little mistakes like that can be forgivable, but overall he seemed stretched too thin and it impacted our wedding. I'm still heartbroken that he lost all portrait pictures with grandparents, etc. Things like that are bound to happen from time to time but it has been handled in an extremely unprofessional way.
Use at your own peril.
