Sarah & Geoff - 21st May 2011 - Chevin Country Park Hotel

Hi Mark,

I would just like to say a huge thank you for making our wedding day a truly wonderful day! Me and Geoff cannot stop looking through our album and anyone that comes round to ours we show them... even though they have seen it many times!

Everyone we have shown our wedding album too have said what an amazing album and asked who our photographer was! We really cannot thank you enough! You were more than just a photographer, you helped make our day run smoothly and was always on hand for my lip gloss :)

Thank you so so so so much! We have already recommended you to our friends who have recently got engaged!

Hope to see you again!

Sarah & Geoff Clarkson

Janine & Mark - 2nd July 2011 - Chevin Country Park Hotel

Hi Mark,

I just wanted to drop you a quick line to say a big thanks for your help to make our wedding day run so smoothly. We had an amazing day and you contributed towards that by making the photography so stress free and easy. It didn't feel like we had spent that much time on it and we had fun along the way.

We are also amazed by the Albums you have made for us, it is a great reminder for us in the future of our special day. So thank you again for the quality that you produced.

My mum also says a big thanks for her album too, although you did make her cry again (in a good way that is) :-)

I will definitely be recommending you to any friends or family that require any photography, in fact I have already passed your details onto a couple of people who have seen our album and photos.

Hopefully we will get to meet up again in future at another happy occasion.

Regards,

Janine & Mark

Helena & Peter - 14th August 2011 - The Pastures, Tong

Dear Mark,

We just want to say a huge thank you for everything you did for us on our wedding day. From the beginning to the end you were absolutely brilliant and we couldn't have asked for a better or more understanding photographer.

You certainly went that extra mile for us and we are very grateful. We also have to mention that you are fantastic with children, we don't know how you do it or how you have mastered it but it has to be said you are a true natural.

We also want to say thank you for our beautiful album which we only waited two weeks for, we couldn't believe it when we received your e-mail. It was so fast, you don't mess about!!!! And it was cream, which is just what we wanted.

We can honestly say, you are a professional photographer. What we wanted we had, and more and it just doesn't end there. We thought we would have to wait a few months at least for our album like some of our friends had to wait for theirs but we didn't. Truly fantastic, you are very dedicated to your job and your brides and grooms

Thanks once again,

Helena & Peter

Sarah & Geoff - 21st May 2011 - Adel Church & Chevin Country Park Hotel

Dear Mark,

Just thought we would drop you a quick line to thank you so much for all your hard work and efforts on our daughters wedding day.

You were more like a wedding coordinator than as a photographer and we truly do not know where to begin in our thanks.

Everything from our very first meeting was handled by your team with the utmost professionalism and we would not have any hesitation whatsoever in recommending your services to anyone.

You helped make the day a truly special occasion and for that we cannot thank you enough. Look forward to seeing you again soon.

Kind regards,

Pete & Bev Riley

Valerie & Mark - 3rd June 2011 - Chevin Country Park Hotel

Dear Mark,

we would like to say a big thank you to you and Paul for being our photographers for our wedding on the 3rd June 2011 at the Chevin Lodge Hotel, Otley

You both did a FANTASTSIC job and we received many comments on how good you were. We would certainly use you again if the occasion arises.

We now have the difficult job in choosing 60 photos for our album which we will do as soon as possible.

Once again, many thanks!

Kind regards,

Val & Mark

Dear Mark,

No amount of "Thank You's" will ever be enough for making our wedding day run so perfect. Without you and Paul God knows how it would have ended up

We are so glad we picked you and everyone who attended stil to this day comment on how FANTASTIC you guys were. You made our day so much fun and that definately shows in the photos.

Thanks again.

Love

Treesje & Paul, Hollins Hall

Dear Mark,

Paul and I would like to thank you for our beautiful wedding album. It has given us great pleasure as we have looked through it (over and over again.). Everyone who has seen it thinks that it is wonderful and our parents are also thrilled with their albums.

It really captures the spirit of our special day and we know that it will carry on giving us giving us pleasure in the years to come.

We will certainly recommend you to anyone who needs a photographer for their wedding.

We can't thank you enough. From start to finish you have given an outstanding service.

Our very best wishes to you and your staff.

Treesje and Paul

Gemma & Nicholas, Beamish Hall County Durham

Mark Pearson and his team are not only amazing photographers, they are the best wedding guests ever as they blended in beautifully on my sons wedding day in August 2010. Mark and Co Principal Photographer Paul were there at Beamish Hall Co. Durham to capture the memories, mood and highlights of Gemma and Nicholas's precious day.

The day was perfect in every way and Mark enhanced the atmosphere with his relaxed, humorous and totally professional approach to his unique style of photography. He was really just one of the guests and a true credit to his profession, almost every one of the guests asked where I found him!! They really liked the way he made everyone feel at ease and almost unaware of his presence.

The icing on the cake, so to speak, was the Wedding album and its contents. STUNNING and BREATHTAKING are the only words to describe the beauty, elegance and brilliance of the images that depicted the story and memories of the day.

If you want a good and ordinary photographer then Mark is not your man!!!

If you want the BEST then I absolutely urge you to talk to this man and see for yourself what a top bloke he is!!!

Thanks again for making my gift to my son and daughter in law so cherished.

Catherine & Jonathan, Bolton Abbey Priory Church & Coniston Hotel

Mark,

Just wanted to say a BIG Thank You for all your help and expertise over the last year. This has resulted in a truly wonderful set of wedding pictures which will be cherished for many years to come.

The canvas you produced is simply STUNNING. It is like a piece of art, capturing our day in one timeless shot, which I am sure we will pass down the generations.

Thank you so much!

Angie & Neil, St Mary's Church & Wood Hall Hotel Wetherby

Hi Mark,

I wanted to write and thank you for being such superstars on our wedding day. From the moment you arrived on the wedding morning both you and Paul slotted in with our friends and family so well and supported us right the way throughout the day. Taking the time before hand to meet us at the venue and also at the church rehersal really did make us feel that we'd known you for ever! Neil and I both abosolutely adore the photos and are appreciative of all the advice you offered us in the lead up to the day. The day for us was everything that we wanted it to be and more and your skill at catching the days events is remarkable.

Our guests also thought you were great although they did keep wondering why the photographer was talking to his tie so much (not knowing you were linked to Paul!), one of my cousins now wants a rerun of her own wedding with you guys as their photographer. Thank you so much for the little things, the needle and thread for sewing my train back up and stepping in when our master of ceremonies went AWOL. We love all the photographs from the evening studio with our guests dressed up in silly hats and boxing gloves and your patience whilst one guest brought in her own props... wellies and oranges, again this was very much appreciated!

The day will remain in our hearts for the rest of our lives and you and Paul were such a large part of the days success, we got much more than photographers on the day we got genuine friends sharing and celebrating with us.

We would totally and wholeheartly recommend you to anyone who is serious about getting the best photographers and pictures for their day and wanting to work with two genuine people who absolutely love their job.

Caroline & Daniel, Baildon Parish Church & Hollins Hall

Hi Mark,

Hope you're well. We just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know we're back from honeymoon if the photos are available to look at.

Also we just wanted to tell you again how utterly amazing you, Paul and Alison were on our wedding day. You were all completely fantastic! My Dad has said a number of times since the wedding how impressed he was - I explained that's why we'd booked you! We knew as soon as we met you that we wanted you to be our photographer.

One guest compared you to the FBI and my cousin said "they're not just photographers they're events management!" It was the way you took control of everything on the day that was the icing on the cake. After the initial nerves in the morning we were able to completely relax knowing you had everything under control. We had so much positive feedback about the studio you set up in the evening too!

We look forward to hearing from you soon when we'll be struggling to pick through all the pics to choose the ones we want for the album - who knows how we'll manage that. It was hard enough picking one for the signature mount!!

Best wishes,

Caroline & Daniel

Abbygail & Simon, Waterton Park Hotel & Walton Hall

Hi Mark,

We would just like to say how fantastic our photos are and we were both absolutely overwhelmed when we first saw them.

We had the most amazing day and we are thrilled to pieces that our photos reflected every minute of that day from us being extremely nervous and overwhelmed with emotion to the biggest smiles and fun filled laughter!

I was extremely nervous on the day and I can honestly say that I felt at ease around you and Paul. Considering I'm not one for having my photo taken, You and Paul made me laugh and take everything in my stride!

I know from talking to family and friends everyone was so impressed with you and your staff. We can honestly say that you and Paul really did make our day all the more special. We were impressed how the photographs ran like clock work, none of this hunting around for people and the photographs seeming like they were taking forever.

Our parents are also very pleased with the photographs and haven't stopped saying how lovely they are.

We truly have got the most perfect photographs, which we will be able to treasure the memories forever so THANK YOU.

Lizzie & Neil, Leeds University Catholic Chaplaincy & The Chevin Country Park Hotel

Mark Pearson is one of those wonderfully annoying photographers that CANNOT take a bad picture!!!!! How on earth he expects us to pick out a small number of pictures for our wedding album i'll never know.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, THE SLIDE SHOW IS FANTASTIC WE CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THE REST OF THEM!

If anyone is thinking of getting married, or is planning their wedding get this guy and his team to photgraph the whole thing, they are amazing people, a joy to have around and as you can see take brilliant pictures all day and all night.

THANK YOU AGAIN MARK, YOU ROCK!

Laura & David, Bolton Abbey Priory Church & The Pavilion, Bolton Abbey

Hi Mark & Paul,

Now that we're back from honeymoon, we just wanted to say a huge, huge thank you for everything you did for us on our wedding day, 5th June 2010. We had the most amazing day and you went way beyond either of our expectations - stepping in for the lack of master of ceremonies being just one example!

What really struck us was that you really seemed to take an interest in our day, in us and in our guests which was absolutely fantasic to see. Many wedding photographers and venues simply look like they're "going through the motions" on the day - you however, are worlds apart. You took an interest in attending our informal rehearsal, meeting our family - even learning their names! and making us all feel extremely comfortable and relaxed around you. Not being one for having my picture taken, that is definitely the way to get the best photos :-)

The slide-show you did for us while we were on honeymoon was incredible and it brought back some fabulous memories of our day. We look forward to seeing the rest of our photos shortly but in the meantime a million thank yous once again - the effort you made for us was quite simply remarkable and we can't thank you enough.

Best wishes

Laura & David

Hi Mark

A really enormous thank you to you and your colleague for all your hard work on Saturday at Laura and David's wedding at Bolton Abbey.

It was so refreshing to see that in addition to the photographic professionalism that is expected as standard, you really got stuck in helping and organising beyond the call of duty and it was apparent to all that you were having lots of fun too in such a natural and empathetic way.

It was so nice to see your genuine concern spotting my dad's fragile situation and you also were so pro-active and helpful taking on the 'Master of Ceremonies' in the Pavilion in addition to your busy photographic work!

You really helped put the 'icing on the cake' in every respect and the sample photos you showed us in the Pavilion looked fabulous.

Rona and I have been to many weddings and I know it's easy to be biased when it's your own getting married, but without doubt, you're way ahead of everything we've previously seen in every respect. There were a quite a few other Yorkshire youngsters there, some of whom will be considering getting married in the not too distant future and I'm sure they'll be knocking at your door when the time comes. We'll do our bit to remind them when the time comes!

Sincere thanks again Mark - can't say a big enough thank you to you.

Victoria & James - Woodlands Hotel

Amazing photos! Thanks for such a fantastic day, photos and slideshow! Cant wait to choose the ones for the album! We may end up having two albums!!!!! - Victoria & James xxx

I actually struggle to find the words good enough to not only describe the photo's but also the level of service that my friends received by Mark. I was Best man at James and Vicki's wedding and was truely impressed with Mark and his Wife from start to finish. I have been to many weddings but never felt that the photographer was worth or earn't their fee. Mark truely enjoys his work and it shows. He will be highly recommended by myself and receiving a call from my partner and I when our big day arrives. Fantastic job guys - Jamie

Jennifer & Matthew - Fountains Abbey

Thank you so much for all the hard work and extraordinary skill you put in for our wedding. On the day itself you were both FANTASTIC and everyone commented on your unobtrusive, humorous and professional manner. We honestly felt that you were a lovely part of the wedding. The pictures themselves are terrific. We are so happy to have so many great shots, the tender moments, funny looks, group happiness and surprising expressions (like during the speeches) that captured the day perfectly. The shots are so impressive technically too - we love the "arty" ones and have filled our home with the prints we ordered. We can not recommend you highly enough in words. You are fantastic and do a remarkable job. THANK YOU!

Will & Katie - St Mary's Church & Goldsborough Hall

Oh wow Mark - they are absolutely fantastic pics, THANK YOU SO MUCH! You really have done us proud and captured so many memories for us. We were about to go to bed but then I just checked my emails and we have been looking over and over them, grinning and laughing and remembering the day. We LOVE the one with us and Ava at the front of the church - gorgeous! We cannot thank you enough for not only the photos but just how great you were both before and on the big day. ...maybe just another look at the pics and then bed.... Lots of love, Mr and Mrs Peat :) :)

Kay & Alex - St John's Church & East Riddlesden Hall

Our photographs are FANTASTIC, but not just that, you made the whole process during the day so enjoyable and stress free (and your help and advice was very much appreciated throughout - including sorting the men's cravats out!!!!). Thank you so much - Love Kay & Alex Higgins

Debi & Mike Sherrard - Rothwell Parish Church & Waterton Park Hotel

Just a little note to say a BIG BIG BIG "Thank You" for photographing our wedding on 10th July 2009.

The photos are wonderful, we love them all, and we could not have a more perfect reminder of our special day, we will treasure them forever. You are two very lovely people and we cannot thank you enough for all you did. You put everyone at ease and you TRULY helped make it the perfect day. Thank You. Love and Best wishes

Zoe & Ian - Oulton Hall

Thank you, thank you, thank so much for making our day so amazing. The photographs are stunning and you were all so wonderful on the day. Your such high standards and attention to detail have resulted in the best wedding photos we have ever seen! Mark you were fabulous on the day and made sure we were both relaxed and really enjoyed having our photographs taken (even though it was the bit we were dreading!). The night photos are brilliant and everyone had such fun posing for them. We have so many compliments to pass on to you all from our Guests. You REALLY contributed to our dream day and we can't thank you enough

Jayne & Tolga - Hotel St. Pierre, Newmillerdam

Thank you so much for taking our beautiful wedding photos! You were both fantastic!!!!

Lynne & Paul - Metropole Hotel Leeds

Thank you so much for such an amazing job you did on our wedding photos! You really captured the magic of the day. I will recommend you to everyone I know!

Claire & Jason - Chevin Country Park Hotel

We are writing to say a MASSIVE thank you for everything you did for us on our wedding day at the Chevin Country Park Hotel. You were both FANTASTIC and contributed greatly to the smooth running of the day. Going across to Surprise View was extremely special and we loved it. We have enjoyed all of our meetings with you and it was great having you there on the day. We really believe we chose the right photographer - our photos are amazing!!! We had such an amazing day and we feel you captured it perfectly

Beth & Graham - Bagden Hall

Just wanted to say a big "Thank You" for making our big day extra special. You have really captured all the special moments in the photographs and we will be looking at them for years to come.

Donna & Tyrone - The Bridge, Walshford

The photos are fantastic!!! You know how I felt about having my picture taken and you were right - I didn't have to worry. You were brilliant. I just wanted to say a huge thank you, you did an amazing job and it felt like you were part of the day and not just there with a job to do. Everyone commented on how friendly you were and how great you were with our son, Louis. He has not stopped talking about being a helper and has told everyone at nursery about his "best friend Mark"

Carolyn & Daniel - Leeds Civic Hall & Woodlands Hotel

We both just want to say a huge THANK YOU to you both for the photos you took at our wedding. We absolutely LOVE them! They've really captured the atmosphere on the day and we are so happy with them. We'll make sure we recommend you to any of our friends getting married.

Carol & Simon Lynch - Oulton Hall

Both Carolyn and myself would like to take a minute to thank you for your professionalism, patience, quality of service and above all, the quality of the pictures you captured on our wedding day. We would also like to thank Mary for the pictures she took and the part she played in the proceedings, she provided assistance way above and beyond the call of duty and several people commented on how helpful and professional Mary was on the day.

Sophie & Alan - Fountains Abbey

The service you offer is absolutley second to none, and everything you say on your website is true. We weren't even going to have a photographer on our wedding day, because we were disappointed with the photo galleries we viewed and thought we could do just as well ourselves, or because the photographers who seemed to be producing lovely photos were also extortionately expensive. By some stroke of luck we found you, and booking you to do our wedding photography was one of the BEST decisions we took. As promised you DO listen to what your customers want, you DO offer great value for money, fantastic customer service, a real commitment to quality and amazing attention to detail. How refreshing!

Jim & Laura - Ramada Jarvis Bramhope

The photos are AMAZING! You truly captured our special day - THANKS!
