y felt so comfortable and trusted him. It was the best feeling not having to stress out about it during the wedding because I knew he would do great. We got our photos back and they are AMAZING. He captured the moments perfectly and we are so thankful to have met him. Highly recommend

and ideas, and was excited about our unique point of view. When we met in person and began the process, it was clear he knew what kind of photos we wanted, and took time to do exciting and unique shots that made us feel celebrated. We can't recommend M. Fort highly enough! It was one of the most exciting parts of the day!
I've never used a photographer before so I wasn't sure what to expect. But, Marcus went above and beyond whatever expectations I had. He came highly recommended from the venue we e...
loped at and we're grateful he was able to shoot our special day. He's an amazing photographer! Our photos came out vividly breath-taking! He arrived prepared way ahead of schedule and he was so respectful and down to earth. He even brought us champagne which was a really sweet gesture.
Throughout the entire photoshoot with my husband and especially the one on one shots, he made me feel extremely comfortable and confident, despite my insecurities. His overall direction on how to pose and how to also emulate a certain expression in front of the lens, was beyond helpful. Lastly, even though my ceremony ran a little behind schedule, he was patient with me. He even gave me a lift to my venue when my uber cancelled on me. Talk about a gentleman!
His communication is excellent and his prices are beyond reasonable. When we finally got our wedding photos, the amount of thoughtfulness that went into the packaging and the handwritten note was so elegant and beautiful. If you are in need of an outstanding photographer, please book Marcus Fort, you will definitely be satisfied that you did. My husband and I hope to use his services again in the future for another milestone!

ur wedding! He doesn’t miss a beat or a detail. He comes extremely prepared and makes everyone so comfortable that it makes the whole experience even more enjoyable. Along with his incredible photography skills and his attention to detail, his communication is amazing. You won’t go through your shoot planning process with any unanswered questions or missed messages. His work is put up all over my house and though they’re special moments the way he caught them is what makes them even more special. You won’t regret booking Marcus for your special day or any other shoot for that matter!
