As a wedding professional, I've worked alongside Mark Davidson at countless weddings and when it came to my own wedding, I knew without a doubt that I wanted Mark to capture it. We actually selected our wedding date based on Mark's availability - we just couldn't imagine anyone but Mark being there to document the day! We were so honored that Mark was able to join us for our wedding weekend in Pennsylvania.
Mark's talent is obvious - and shines through in any of his photographs. He is truly a master of his craft. Mark's ability to capture the most intimate of moments, artfully frame the most stunning of photographs, and his mastery of light make him one of the most talented photographers I've had the privilege to work with professionally - and now personally. Mark has this incredible ability to capture indoor photographs in way I have seen few other photographers do. He's able to bring that same natural, lit-from-within-glow to his indoor photography, and do so effortlessly. Much of our wedding took place indoors (and even more than we originally planned as it ended up raining!) but Mark blew us away with the photographs and the quality of light he was able to capture. I know few other photographers would have been able to do what he did.
What you may not be able to tell is the kind of person Mark Davidson is. He is an utmost professional and widely respected among the Boston wedding community and beyond. But Mark is also a funny, genuine person and caring friend. Mark blended in seamlessly with our wedding guests and his calming, easy-going presence was a cherished part of our wedding weekend.
Mark gave us the greatest gift in being our wedding photographer and we are so grateful for the stunning photographs he created. Thank you Mark, for everything! We are forever grateful to you!

Mark was easy to work with and took beautiful photos of our wedding. He excels at taking candid photos that capture subtle moments and the essence of the wedding. Unfortunately because our ceremony was outside and it was getting ready to rain afterward, our family photos got rushed which meant that we did not get all of the different combinations we had wanted. There were a few instances where someone's face was covered up or there were other visually distracting details I wish Mark had caught, and the order of photos was a bit disorganized which meant that some people had to come back out and leave for different photos, including my dad who's in a wheelchair. I appreciated that Mark offered to take a photo of my siblings and I after the reception since we had not gotten to take a photo together earlier. Also he was very good at blending in and still managing to get nice photos of our cake cutting, our first dance, and other moments without being in the way or distracting. Lastly, he was extremely fast and editing and sharing our photos with us: he shared previews within a week and all of our (hundreds of) photos within two weeks. Overall if you are looking for a photographer who takes candid natural photos that capture the essence of the moment, we recommend Mark!

We used Mark for our wedding day photography and he did such an amazing job! I love the photo style he uses - that was the main reason I chose him (despite being a bit outside of our budget). We also connected really well during the phone interview. We had him for 5 hours and he got so many awesome candid shots of everyone having fun! He also got lovely shots of the venue and decor. He sent me sneak peaks 2 weeks after the wedding, and the remaining photos were sent a month after the wedding. I’d definitely recommend him to any of my friends if they were looking for a wedding photographer!

We chose Mark as our photographer because we loved his photo-journalist approach to the day. We were initially impressed by the candid photos to capture the authenticity of the day and vibrancy of the photos that truly make you feel like you were there.
Since the wedding, we keep coming back to how happy we were to work with Mark. We actually hired Mark to capture two days of photos: our small, intimate church wedding, and then our big celebration the week after. Mark was super easy-going and accommodating to capturing our day the way we envisioned it.
Mark was able to capture not only all of the photos we wanted, but all of the little moments in between that we were and even were not a part of. I think the best compliment I can give, especially for this style of photography, is that I was so unaware of where he was while we were on the dance floor. I was concerned that I was going to be self-conscious with photos being taken all night, but I was able to just live in the moment and completely enjoy every second of the party, only to then realize that I get to relive it all through the photos in a genuine and authentic way.
We can't recommend Mark enough!

We are so pleased that we picked Mark to be our photographer at our July 2024 wedding at the Beauport Hotel in Gloucester. His calm demeanor, experience with the venue, and candid photography style allowed us to relax and trust that he was going to do an awesome job - which he did! All of his pictures represented the fun that we had during the day and the genuine emotion of our loved ones. Throughout the planning process, Mark was responsive and helped ensure our vision for our photographs and wedding day came to life. We highly recommend Mark to photograph your wedding!

Mark was so wonderful to work with, worked so efficiently, delivered gorgeous photos in an extremely timely manner, and was super helpful in helping us access our photos after a slight hiccup with the link!
My now husband is not a fan of being photographed, but remarked at how quickly Mark worked to complete our family and couples portraits so that we could get back to the party! Additionally, after looking at the photos he sent over, we were amazed at all of the photos he got, especially during the ceremony, as neither one of us had any idea he was bouncing around so much, as we didn't even notice!
Mark's style captured us just as we had hoped, with non-stuffy, fun, natural photos! We are thrilled!

We absolutely LOVE our wedding day photos shot by Mark at our wedding in November and can’t recommend him enough!!! Mark was so great to work with from the start. He made the time to talk with us early on, continued to be available to meet by phone as needed, and was responsive to texts during the planning process. When we wanted a 2nd shooter he brought along Krista, whose work matched the caliber and quality of Mark’s photographic style. On the day of the wedding he and Krista were a calming and quiet presence, capturing the authenticity of our emotions throughout the day. My husband and I aren’t the best at posed photos and with Mark’s photo journalism approach we feel like models look at the gallery! Mark captures big picture shots well, while having a keen eye for the intimate moments and details. Mark was also very flexible when we needed to extend his time on the day of the wedding since events ran later than we anticipated. Our wedding photos continue to bring us so much joy and we could not be happier that we hired Mark to capture our day!

We hired Mark for our September wedding and it was a great choice! Mark and his second shooter, Dustin, did an excellent job of capturing our day. We love the photos and enjoyed having them around. He also sent the gallery over quickly!
If you are looking for a photographer who will respond to your every email promptly, Mark is probably not your guy. However, the photos are amazing and we are very happy with our choice! Also, he does not do engagement shoots but did recommend a different photographer (Mikhail Glabets) who was awesome too.

We hired Mark for our September wedding in Boston and are so thankful we did! Mark and his second shooter, Richard, were so amazing to work with and they made us feel comfortable and relaxed taking pictures. They were laid back and fun, and captured all of our favorite moments without being intrusive. We got our photos shortly after our wedding and love them all!

My husband and I hired Mark to photograph and do a short video of our May 2023 wedding. We could not say enough good things about our experience. Mark captured our day perfectly. Mark and his second photographer, Dustin, were kind, professional, and fit right into our day seamlessly. We got both amazing posed bridal party and family photos, as well as so many awesome candids and dance floor photos. Highly recommend!!!

I can't say enough good things about Mark. He was the best thing about the wedding.. other than actually getting married. I found him on the knot and loved the authenticity of his photos. He is so laid back and easy to work with. He delivered our photos so fast and I am obsessed with every single photo. He captured our day so perfectly from start to end. I can't thank him enough for helping us preserve the memories of such an important day.

We hired Mark Davidson for our Labor Day Weekend 2022 wedding at Misselwood in Beverly, Mass.
Mark did a really nice job with our wedding. He came prepared and his experience was evident from the start. His assistant, Dustin, was also very easy to work with and did a great job.
Our photos looked great and everything was delivered in a timely fashion after the event.
Overall, we enjoyed working with Mark and Dustin and wouldn't hesitate to do so again.

Mark was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. From our first call with him, to the engagement shoot, and the actual wedding day, Mark was professional and extremely easy to work with. Both my wife and I are camera shy but Mark did an excellent job making us feel comfortable. He was great about getting not only the couple portraits that we wanted and group shots, but he also was always there to take group shots during the cocktail hour and reception (even offering to take photos both his camera and people's cell phones).

Mark and his team are amazing! We were a bit late in hiring our photographer, but Mark was amazing and attentive. We had a number of phone conversations to chat about style and what we wanted. On the day of the wedding he made sure we got every picture we had told him we wanted. He captured all of the moments and even moments we didn't even know were happening. His candid pictures are fantastic and photos we will cherish for life.

Mark was the photographer for our wedding this past September. Working with him was an absolute breeze. Starting off, Mark was easy to get in touch with prior to our wedding day. He is very efficient with the group photos as well as the typical couple photos, which is exactly what we wanted, so we could actually enjoy our wedding. It is amazing to me how we barely noticed his presence during the ceremony/reception and yet the photos are so intimate. His style of candid photos was so authentic and I will also say he did an exceptional job getting pictures of all of our wedding guests which was important to me. Overall the photos came out stunning- my family and I are obsessed to say the least. I highly highly recommend hiring Mark for any event but especially your wedding.

So grateful to have found Mark and have him shoot our wedding. He knew our venue so well (the Red Lion Inn) and was super efficient, but also flexible. One of our junior bridesmaids brought a camera and was running around taking photos, and he artfully worked around her, and even gave her a few tips - he honestly felt like a guest. So eager to see his final product! I would recommend or re-hire Mark in a second.

I knew from the moment I saw the photos on the knot that Mark would be my photographer, and I did not feel that strongly about literally anything else for my whole wedding. Mark was a JOY to work with, from our first phone call to him arriving and saying hello, to him always somehow popping up exactly when I needed him and then seeming to disappear like a ghost whenever I did not need him, yet he was still there, capturing every moment. He is such a warm, friendly, nice person, you feel like you've known him all your life when he arrives! He and his second photographer were on top of all of the shots we wanted and confirmed with us multiple times that we'd gotten all the shots we needed. Genuinely a wonderful person and I am so happy to have gotten to work with him!

Mark was amazing to work with. He was super personable and down-to-earth, which made the engagement shoot and formal wedding portraits feel comfortable and natural. He gave us great direction and recommendations for where to set the photo background. He also had great advice for planning wedding day timeline. On the actual wedding day several of my bridesmaids commented on how organized and smooth the photo session was. He was efficient but got all the pictures I requested oh my checklist and also made sure we were on time to each event!
His pricing was very reasonable compared to other photographers.
If you’re planning a New England wedding, I highly recommend Mark.

You can clearly see on Mark's website how amazing his photography is, but what isn't as obvious is his day-of approach- he made us feel extremely comfortable during both our engagement and wedding photos which made the more formal takes that much easier. He is the utmost professional, blends in when he needs to and as a bonus he had good existing working relationships with both our DJ and venue. Would definitely recommend him for your wedding- couldn't have asked for better!

We are so happy with our decision to hire Mark to photograph our wedding. He was communicative, professional, and very understanding about needing to reschedule our wedding due to Covid. He remained consistently in contact with us during the whole process. On our wedding day he was very easy going and guided us through all the formal family photos with ease. He captured so many wonderful candids too. Our guests are still raving about the photos. We absolutely recommend Mark for your photographing your special day!

We are so glad we chose Mark to photograph our wedding! He was super low key and made everyone comfortable - which isn’t always easy when cameras are around. We opted to have Mark bring a second photographer, and Dustin was just as great. The two of them worked seamlessly together. We just got our photos back and could not be happier. They are amazing! Mark was able to capture so many great moments and we will treasure our photos forever.

I would absolutely recommend Mark to anyone.
We had Mark cover our wedding this past summer. We initially had another photographer. But we had to move our wedding from 2020 to 2021 and that photographer had some personal issue such that she couldn't cover our wedding.
I found Mark online and what I loved about his work was he was able to capture the feeling and mood of the wedding. We did not hire a videographer but hiring Mark is 2-for-1. Every photo really captured our wedding vibe and our family dynamic.
I also hired Mark for our cultural ceremony two days ahead (Henna) for a few hours. I am happy I did that because he was able to capture the essence of that ceremony as well and we had beautiful photos from there.
I highly recommend Mark and definitely recommend checking out his website for his photo portfolio. He does an excellent job of doing a storytelling approach to photography.

Mid Covid and very anxious, we couldn’t delay our wedding any further and Mark delivered not just with beautiful shots of our wedding ceremony and dinner but also as a support system. He recommended florists and verified my venue choice. My biggest apprehension was having a photographer who won’t be able to capture the culturally important moments of our Pakistani wedding. Mark did every moment justice. I’m so glad we could work with Mark Davidson. His style aligned with ours. We couldn’t be happier.

Mark Davidson so beautifully captured our wedding and was such a pleasure to work with throughout the planning process. From our initial conversation to the day of our event, he was incredibly attentive to what we were hoping to have captured and executed our vision perfectly. He has such an artistic eye, capturing the “big” and “little” moments with such liveliness that, in looking at our album, we feel like we’re celebrating our wedding all over again. Mark is responsive, personable and comfortable to be around, which showed through in how natural our photos appear. We are so lucky to have worked with Mark and to have such special photos to remember our special day by.

Mark did an awesome job capturing our "micro wedding" last month. He was so great to work with from the very beginning, and most importantly, we ended up with amazing photos from our special day. The photos look really natural and effortless--both the candid shots and the posed photos. He also made my husband and I feel super comfortable in front of the camera, which was key since I am the self-proclaimed queen of awkwardness. We are thrilled to have worked with him, and would recommend him to anyone!

Mark was fantastic. He responds very quickly to emails and texts. We spoke with him twice before the wedding to go over details and what we were looking for, and he very patiently answered all of out questions. We had a blast on our wedding day, it was a Minimony at the Copley Fairmont during COVID, and we had the whole place to ourselves. Mark is very familiar with the Fairmont, so we went to all the different ballrooms and hallways to take photos. He did a great mix of formal and informal photos and was easygoing and fun to work with. The photos were available within a few weeks and they are GORGEOUS. We could not be happier with them. And his rates are very reasonable. We highly recommend Mark!!

The following review is a reflection on our personal experience with Mark Davidson Photography.
We were extremely disappointed with Mark Davidson Photography. Planning our wedding during a pandemic was stressful enough. We felt that Mark was inflexible and he made it very difficult for us to make the already challenging decision to postpone our wedding.
We planned to work with Mark for our June 2021 wedding. Mark completed our engagement photo session a few months before the pandemic shut down. We found him to be awkward and provided little guidance or feedback throughout the session making my fiancé and I both felt awkward and we feel like it definitely shows in the pictures. We ended up having to edit his photos to make one usable for our save the dates.
We reached out to Mark 6 months prior to our planned wedding date to explain to him that we were concerned about needing to postpone the wedding. He told us we would work together to find a new date. We coordinated with our venue and other vendors and sent Mark at least 3 potential dates that worked for our family and our other vendors. Mark replied that he was “booked out for Saturday’s in 2021” and that he wouldn’t be able to do any of the dates we presented. We told him our venue could not make a go or no go decision until 2 months before the June data due to uncertainty on Covid restrictions. He then agreed to follow suit with the venue and make a final decision 2 months prior to the wedding date. Nevertheless, despite numerous contacts and communications with Mark, he would continuously send us “breach of contract” notice. When I asked about it, he told me to ignore them. We tried to maintain an open dialogue with Mark. We felt that he would say one thing to us on the phone and then contradict that in a future email.
We were already discouraged by our wedding being called off not by us but by the state not allowing our wedding on the original contract date. We felt trapped by the contract and by his unwillingness to work with us. We decided to terminate the contract with him.
I know this is one bad review of his many positive ones, but we felt it was important to share our personal experiences.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Mark in December 2020 for my wife and I's elopement. We reached out to Mark in November as we solidified our elopement plans and from the very beginning, he was amazing to work with. He responded quickly to our inquiry about his services and chatted with us over the phone within a few days to get more information on what we were looking for. He checked in throughout the time between that call and the ceremony to make sure he understood our needs and that we felt comfortable. He even made sure his fee reflected our actual needs on the day as opposed to purely charging us based on the fact we were getting married. On our actual elopement day, he made us feel at ease. He was on time, kind, warm, and funny. It was like we had known him for years even though we had only met him in person on that day. We had flown to Boston to elope as just the two of us, so we were able to capitalize on our mobility to take pictures in several beautiful spots around the city as well as in our hotel. It was honestly a great time and will be a fond memory for years to come. I cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Mark, but will recommend him to any and all who are looking for a photographer in the Boston area. He is a consummate professional and made our special day that much more perfect.

We originally were planning on getting married in South Carolina and was forced to downsize and then cancel due to COVID. After rescheduling to Boston and having 6 weeks to plan everything, Mark was integral in brining our wedding vision to life. He was very flexible in adjusting his schedule and providing recommendations on services and locations to shoot to transition our South Carolina vision to Boston. He was very personable and easy going which made our wedding day go smooth and stress free. He worked with our videographer very well and was open for last minute adjustments and thoughts from our end. We highly recommend Mark for all photography needs! – Bethany and Tony

BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS! Mark was an amazing photographer, I knew by looking at his website he was the photographer I wanted for my wedding and I was not wrong. I notriously hate getting photographed, but he really made me feel so comfortable the entire time. He also just was so amazing and catching the little moments throughout the wedding that I will treaure for years to come. I always believe its about the moments captured and not just the posed pictures, and he really captured many beautiful moments throughout the wedding!

We cannot rave enough about our experience with Mark, both on our wedding day and throughout our wedding planning. We finalized our booking with Mark around January 2020, with a planned wedding date of November 14, 2020. As the year brought more and more chaos, Mark was not only calm and professional, but willing to adapt to our continuously changing plans. He was always available to chat, and was ultimately able to photograph our micro-wedding on 10/24/2020. Throughout the day, we'd catch Mark capturing little moments that would have otherwise been missed. Overall - we are thrilled with our experience and would highly recommend Mark.

Mark is BEYOND talented and I cannot say enough about his work. Once I received our pictures I really truly felt like I could relive the whole day. He told me he would capture and tell the story of my wedding day, and he did just that! I wanted these photos to be different than my “usual” pictures. I wanted genuine emotions captured without having to pose for every picture all day. It was so much better being able to relax and have him do what he loves doing , which is capturing raw and genuine moments of the our day. They came out gorgeous.
Mark also has a really great and easy going attitude and is always offering help in whatever capacity he can. I am so happy that Mark photographed our day and I would highly recommend him!

Hands down the best decision we made was hiring Mark as our photographer. My sister is a professional photographer, but we wanted her to be in the wedding and enjoy the event. She agrees that he was an amazing addition to our list of vendors. Mark has such a gift for capturing moments, making people feel relaxed and was very reasonably priced. He also got us our photos very quickly.
We hired Mark for an engagement session about six months before our wedding and for the three days of events the weekend of our wedding. He’s jovial, talented, organized, very experienced, and captured moments we didn’t even realize he was getting. Looking over my wedding photos, I can literally feel the happiness emanating from them. And as someone who doesn’t feel she’s particularly photogenic, he captured photos of me, my husband and our guests that made us look like celebrities!

Mark did an incredible job photographing our winter wedding! He was fun and easy to work with throughout the entire day. I picked several coastal spots for pictures and it turned out to be freezing on the day of our wedding. Mark was more than happy to brave the temperature outside! He scouted out the best spot for our first look when I hadn’t thought about it, stood outside in a snowstorm in the dark to get my dreamed of snowy picture, and helped wrangle our large family like a pro! Mark truly captured our day beautifully and looking through our album is like reliving the wedding over and over. To top it all off, we received the photos in just over one week! I would highly recommend Mark to anyone. He is a true professional, a gifted photographer, and a pleasure to work with!

Mark was exactly what we were looking for in a wedding photographer. He was very professional and we are very happy with our photographs. I was amazed at how quickly his turn around time was to get the images. We loved how he and his team blended into the wedding. My fiance and I are not huge on staged photographs, we really enjoy photos that capture the actual moment. Of course we wanted the "typical" photos of us with our wedding party and families but we did not want to spend a very long time taking these photos, we wanted to be able to hang out with our guests and enjoy our reception. Honestly when we got our photos back I was surprised at how many images we got and everything he captured because again he blended right into the wedding and never was standing directly in front of you snapping pictures. We are very happy with our photographs and we were very happy with Mark!

Mark was absolutely wonderful to work with! I initially reached out to inquire about his services early on in the planning process and he was so quick to contact me back. I chose him to document the most important day of my life because of how that first conversation went! Not only is he an incredibly talented photographer, but he seamlessly documents your entire day, beginning to end, and manages to keep you (the bride) calm as a cucumber. Throughout the day and night, his presence was never intrusive and I could not be more thrilled that he captured so many candid and special moments of our wedding. The photographs were available quickly and we were able to easily download them for our use! I whole heartedly recommend Mark if you want to ensure flawless documentation of the most important day of your life!!

My cousin got married a couple of years of ago and the pictures came out so great I knew I could trust Mark Davidson Photography!
Here are my favorite things about working with this vendor:
--Photo quality: My husband and I are not photogenic people and every
picture
came out perfect!
--Professionalism: I had Mark and another photographer from his team, Steve
work with us on our big day. Both photographer were friendly
and helpful throughout the whole day.
--Candid pictures: Mark and Steve got some amazing candid
pictures throughout the day. The day went by so quickly and
so when I got my pictures back, it was really special to go
through the pictures and see moments I didn't even realized
were captured.
--Special requests: I wore my mom's dress and I had Mark look
at some of her wedding pictures. I really wanted to take one
picture in the same pose as a surprise for her. I showed Mark,
and he got the perfect shot! The two photos look great next to
each other and my mom was so touched with this little detail.
Also, my sister has special needs and she really doesn't like
posing for pictures. Mark and Steve got SO many good
pictures of her--I couldn't be happier.
--Time frame: I got my pictures back in 3 weeks!!! AMAZING.
No cons to speak of :) You should book Mark Davidson Photography for you wedding today!!!

Mark was truly incredible to work with! I had first discovered him after he was the photographer for a friend’s wedding, and I absolutely loved her pictures. So when it came time for my husband and I to pick a photography, I knew Mark had to be it! He was so easy & nice to work with from the very beginning! He was always available to answer any questions through the wedding planning process. Our pictures are perfect, and I could not love them anymore! There are so many beautiful candid pictures that I really love, but even for the more poised pictures, they look really natural and effortless. I’ve had many friends tell me how shocked they are that we got our pictures back so quickly (13 days after the wedding). And Mark makes it super easy to be able to go online look at all of your pictures and then download them.
Working with Mark was truly a gift, not only is he incredibly talented in his art, but he was so nice and easy going through the entire process! I will recommend him to any future friends/family who get married!

Mark was amazing our entire wedding day and was thoughtful and focused on making sure to capture each moment from beginning to end. He took special care to listen to us and was flexible and dedicated the whole day. We would highly recommend Mark and couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.

Mark did a fabulous job of photographing our wedding day! He called me a few days before the actual wedding day to go over all of the details and it really helped to calm my nerves. He showed up right on time on the wedding day and from there on we barely noticed his presence (in a good way!). Our main reason for choosing Mark was his ability to capture natural and candid moments as they unfolded throughout the day. He was very efficient in running through all of the formal photos and we were able to catch the last 20 minutes of our cocktail hour which was great! He captured so many beautiful photos that we will cherish for a lifetime! And he managed to get them back to us in under 3 weeks! We would highly recommend Mark!

Mark was unbelievable! We did our engagement photos and wedding photos with Mark. We knew right when we met him that we made the right decision, he was personable and made us feel so comfortable and confident all at the same time. On our wedding day, we didn’t have to worry about a thing, Mark made everything so easy, so much so that we barely noticed him snapping candids all throughout our day. He was efficient with the family photos and later captured all of our must have shots as husband and wife! Mark was amazing!

Mark is nothing short of amazing! Not only is he an incredible photographer, he also has the ability to make every picture feel so real which is what drew us to him for our wedding. We loved his ability to capture the intimate special moments of the wedding day without making each frame feel like a staged photoshoot. Leading up to the wedding Mark made sure to check in, even meeting my husband and I in person a couple of times to make sure we were doing okay and answer any questions. The day of the wedding he was extremely flexible, being open to some last minute requests and remaining super calm in the chaos that is the wedding day. It was comforting to have him there reassuring my husband and I everything was going to plan. He was even nice enough to hang around at the end of the night and take some last minute pictures with our friends which I really appreciated! Most importantly, for two people who hate posing for pictures Mark was able to capture so many beautiful natural frames of my husband and I!!! They are beyond anything we could have imagined!! Thank you Mark for all your hard work on the wedding day! We feel so lucky to have had you there to capture every moment!

Mark is an ubelievable wedding photographer with a real talent for capturing the love and joy of a wedding. I knew from our first phone conversation that Mark's laid back, approachable personality would be exactly what we wanted around on our wedding day. He is casual, flexible (e.g. trekking through the woods with us for a memorable first look) and really lets it be the couples day to enjoy. He is inobtrusive and was able to caprue some raw, beautiful moments without anyone hardly realizin that he was present. We got some beautiful portraits but loved that we were able to enjoy our wedding without spending the whole night posing for pictures. We also received our full, edited wedding gallery within just a few weeks of our wedding. Thank you, Mark, for perfectly capturing everything that made our wedding weekend so special.

Mark is a ninja. He has an innate understanding of the flow of an event, and where he needs to be for the best shot, all while blending into the crowd. One of the comments I’ve heard the most from guests at the wedding (besides loving the photos) was that they barely noticed we had a photographer, and the end result are photos that capture the energy of our night perfectly. He’s a great guy, very easy to work with, and on top of all of that, does a great job with folks who don’t enjoy having their picture taken. Five stars and many thumbs up!

Mark was incredible. He knew where to be at all times and was never intrusive or overwhelming. He was able guide us through our wedding day without us even knowing. He captured every smile and laugh that meant the most to us. His style is seemingly effortless, natural and easy. The photographs mirrored the happiness and fun we had all day. We highly recommend working with Mark!

There truly aren't enough positive things to say about Mark Davidson Photography. Choosing to work with Mark was one of the best decisions my husband and I made with regard to our wedding. He is professional, personable and easygoing, and his photos are absolutely beautiful. When I look through our pictures, I feel like I'm reading the story of our day.
We will cherish our photos forever and will enthusiastically recommend Mark's services to anyone and everyone!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Mark. First off, his work is STUNNING. He perfectly captures the day without over-engineering or posing, just focusing on capturing true emotions. We could not be more pleased with the end results.
Beyond that, Mark is super calm, cool and collected. It started raining right before our first look, which was intended to be outside. Mark quickly suggested a new location without a thought, which kept me calm. Luckily it was a passing storm and the rest of our photos went off without a hitch, but this is just one example of his demeanor and attitude throughout the day. Book him, you won't regret it.

I was recently one of the best men in my brother's wedding in Plymouth, MA. The photography crew did a great job throughout getting candid photos of the ceremony and party. It was a very hot day, and the photographer made sure everyone wasn't dying of sweat when taking the pre ceremony pictures. They were professional and very outgoing, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Mark was absolutely fantastic! My husband and I couldn't be more thrilled with how our pictures turned out. Mark captured all the smiles, laughs, and joys of our day. We were really careful when searching for a wedding photographer and wanted to make sure we found someone who really focused on the candid moments. Mark was fantastic at just that, all of our pictures turned out beautifully. He was fun and friendly, I would definitely recommend him to everyone!

We selected Mark based on his gorgeous photos and ability to capture real emotions in his candids. Mark and his colleague, Dustin's performance did not disappoint! Not only were they a calming presence, but half the time they blended in so well, you didn't even know they were there! However, once we got the photos, we were thrilled at all the moments Mark did capture. We can truly re-live our wedding day by going through our album. Mark has a true talent and we loved working with him!

I knew from the minute I spotted Marks work on the knot, I had to book him for my special day. His shots on my wedding day went above and beyond anything I could have ever imagined. Not to mention he was an absolute joy to have around. Wonderful personality, very professional, not pushy, calm cool and collected through the chaos, and just an overall extremely talented man. My photos were done so fast that I was still on my honeymoon when the link came. Beautiful final photos, answers all emails and phone calls quickly and has a true skill. What more could you need!? I loved working with Mark and I hope you do too!

Almost every bride can agree that planning a wedding is one of the most stressful things that they have ever had to do. Almost every bride can also probably agree that it is completely worth all of the stress in the end. Choosing the right photographer to capture my special day, which I had been told numerous times goes by way too quickly, was something that meant a lot to me. I wanted to be able to feel comforted in knowing that I would be able to reflect on the fleeting moments that happened throughout the day 2, 10 and even 50 years from now. After going through Mark's previous work and reviews as well as chatting with him over the phone about his style and technique, I knew that he was the right photographer for us. He was SO easy to work with (I can't stress it enough!). He is extremely personable. He went above and beyond to ask us what we were hoping to get from our photos and found innovative ways to make sure that he could make it happen. Choosing Mark as our photographer was hands down one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding. I have and will continue to recommend him to family and friends.

I LOVE the pictures from my wedding. Mark captured all of the joy and excitement my husband and I, and our guests were feeling that day. Because we got married at the Boston Public Library we had a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces and the photographs from every location were fantastic. Inside shots can be tricky because of how the light plays, but it wasn't an issue for Mark, we love the photographs taken inside the library just as much as we love the shots taken outside in the courtyard. In addition, Mark was super easy to work with throughout the day. He put everyone at ease, efficiently directed the formal pictures, and captured lots of candid moments of laughter and joy. Even working with Mark in the lead up to the wedding was a breeze. He was always very responsive to our questions and really flexible when it came to our pre-wedding meeting. An added bonus to everything is that we got our pictures exactly two weeks after the wedding, which was so fast and amazing. We can't thank Mark enough and highly recommend him to others looking to capture their wedding day!

We just got our photos back from Mark (only about a week after our wedding) and words cannot describe how beautiful they are. My husband and I as well as all of our friends and family are amazed at every picture. Mark has a talent that is rare. Every special moment was perfectly captured with the most candid and natural photos. Mark's laid back and positive attitude made the whole process so easy and comfortable, especially for someone who is camera shy. I am so grateful I was given his name by a friend and would HIGHLY recommend him to capture your special event.

A Photographer was the first thing I invested in for my wedding because I knew that the day would fly by and I would want to look back- and it did! I am not really one for posed/prom-like pictures so I searched until I found Mark. I loved his style and ability to capture the natural moments as they happened. The day of the wedding, I honestly hardly knew he was there, yet he captured every moment exactly as it happened. We have photos that show so much more than posed smiles; my brothers and I anticipating walking down the aisle, my puppy jumping to my fiance during the ceremony, my 95 year old grandmother dancing, natural reactions during speeches, and all captured and edited beautifully. We received the pictures so quickly and everyone is blown away. I knew we would be happy with Mark's work and we are SO glad we made the investment!!

Can’t recommend Mark highly enough! We are so in love with the photographs of our wedding. We really wanted to capture the spirit of the day and our guests (over lots of staged portraits), and Mark and Steve did exactly that. They are amazing photo journalists!
Mark was also very helpful and professional throughout the planning process. He met with us in person at the venue with some other key vendors a few weeks before the big day to familiarize himself with the space and go over the schedule. And then the week of the wedding he called again to make sure we were feeling good about everything. Lastly, even though we knew the typical turnaround time for the photos would be two weeks, Mark was able to get the online gallery ready for us a couple of days early, in advance of a visit we made to my husband’s grandmother (who wouldn’t make it to the wedding due to her health). It was so special to share the photographs with her and we’re so grateful to Mark for making it happen!

Mark showed up early, along with the photographers assistant. They did a walk through at our venue to scout out for locations/backgrounds that would be great for pictures. Prior to our wedding, we sat with mark to go over our ideas, and the style of pictures we wanted, and he was able to accommodate us. Mark is very response, and answered our questions right away. During the wedding, we had additional family/friends group pictures that wasn’t originally discussed with Mark, but he managed to get all those additional pictures. Our pictures came out great, would highly recommend Mark for wedding photographer!!

Mark was so incredible to work with during our wedding. He made me feel comfortable and relaxed during the day, especially before the wedding when stress levels were high. Very professional and personable. He captured all the beautiful moments and seemed to know exactly where to be. I highly recommend him as a photographer!
