I want to start out by saying that Marc was great the day of our wedding but my husband and I just unfortunately never received the bulk of what was in our agreement. While we DID ...
receive our photos, most of them were unedited and when I asked for some things to be removed from some of the photos (such as a man in a bright yellow shirt directly in the background) I was told no problem and they would make these adjustments... months later I never received the edited images. We were supposed to receive a photo book and USB as well, never got either. I tried to contact Marc and Heather for MONTHS with minimal response, espeically from Heather. When I did get a response I was told they would get those things to me. More months passed, with nothing. No book, no USB. I got married in May 2023 and am writing this review in September 2024. As a photographer myself, I know how much reviews like these can hurt a business which is why I was more than patient and tried multiple times to inquire about the things that were agreed upon in our contract. I booked Eric based off of his positive reviews so the entire experience has been very heartbreaking to say the least. Overall, working with Marc and Heather was a very disappointing experience and I wish we could go back and choose a different photographer.
I cannot speak highly enough of Mark and Heather. My husband and I got married in October 2022, and I still cannot get over how stunning the photos are. We had such a great time wi...
th Mark on our wedding day and for our engagement photos. He was accommodating to all of our desires. The photos turned out stunning. I am in love with them.
Mark was hands down the best photographer we could have booked for our wedding. My husband and I got married in April of 2022. I still cannot get over the diversity of the shots th...
at he took. There were gorgeous classic shots and INCREDIBLE candids that truly captured the emotions and love felt during our wedding day. As the bride and groom, it was fun for us to look through the photos and see the joy that our guests felt as well on our big day. I still can't get over the action shot he captured of my bridesmaid catching my bouquet and us hugging in excitement afterwards! I Each time I look at the photos I am transported back to how I felt on my wedding day and remember all the special details because he does a wonderful job capturing them. Mark truly has a gift. He connects with the couples as well so they feel comfortable (my husband isn't a big picture taker). Unless they were staged, we didn't notice him and his team taking the photos through the day and night, but they captured everything!
Mark and his 2nd photographer for the wedding day (Jeff) were absolutely amazing! They were extremely professional yet fun and energetic to work with. I don't consider myself one...
to thrive in front of a camera, but they instantly made me feel relaxed and comfortable. They guided us on how to pose, which felt very natural and easy. I can't say enough positive things about working with Mark and I'm already thinking of what other events I can hire them for! It would be a mistake not to hire him for your big day!
Mark and heather are the absolute best! They are so kind and fun. They made everything from our engagements to our bridals an absolute joy. They’re a pleasure to work with and they...
go out of their way to make your photos the best!
There are not enough positive things I can say about Mark. He photographed our rehearsal dinner and the entire wedding day and captured everything PERFECTLY. From the posed moments...
to every candid dance shot you can imagine. All 3,000 of the pictures we got back were phenomenal. If you can, HIRE HIM!
Have you ever heard of a wedding where the most complimented aspect of the entire reception was your PHOTOGRAPHER? I'm the lucky groom of a beautiful bride who set up the most amaz...
ing, elegant, southern wedding I've ever seen, and this is my photography story:
Initially, my bride and I decided that photography and memories were extremely important to us, so we budgeted accordingly. We had heard rumors that Mark Eric was the cream of the crop, but as a typical guy who helped plan MAYBE 5-10% of the wedding, I was skeptical at first of whether a photographer would be worth his quoted price. Turns out, I was a real idiot.
Not only was Mark Eric worth his weight in gold, but he was one of the legitimate STARS of our wedding. Mark Eric is truly great at his job. He knows his role. He is polite and professional, and he is always in the right place at the right time. He was EVERYWHERE. Any time that anything remotely relevant happened, he was there snapping a unique photo of it. The guy was like a ninja; I swear he could be in 5 different places at one time. He was also really fun to be around; there was one point of the wedding where some kind of spin-the-bottle dance-off game started (I actually think Mark Eric started it), and the bottle landed on him, and he jumped in the dance circle and showed off his moves. The crowd loved it! He also surprised plenty of people when he'd hand him his camera and let them take pictures with his equipiment so they felt more involved in the wedding. He took photo requests throughout the day, and he knew all of the right poses for pre-wedding photos with the family and bridal party. That's an underrated part of an experienced wedding photographer: putting people in the right places, and making sure they do the right things with their hands, and being assertive (but not rude) when the sun is at the perfect angle (knowing you only have a few minutes to get the right shots on a partly cloudy day). All of this is to say that there's a huge comfort after the wedding in feeling 100% confident that Mark Eric captured everything on the most important and best day of your lives. I give him a 10/10, A+ review, and I'd recommend him to anyone who wants OUTSTANDING photography. Some of you may be reading this and wondering "Ok, yeah he's probably pretty good, but I don't know if I can afford him with my budget." And I'm here to tell you: BUDGET AROUND HIM. He should be the centerpiece of your budget. Seriously, make this dude happen. You won't regret it. I wasn't kidding when I said that we got SEVERAL (at least 20) compliments from random people about how great the photographer was. He's the real deal.
Wedding Location: Southern Hotel, Covington, Louisiana.
If you are able to book Mark Eric for your wedding - absolutely do it! He is an absolute pleasure to work with AND his work is stunning. Mark and his wife, Heather, are a delight t...
o work with, very responsive, provide clear communication from start to finish, and will work with you to make sure your wedding day is captured from every angle. Our schedule of events on the day of the wedding went way off plan (like they often do) and Mark was so flexible, rolling with the chaos, and still capturing the beautiful moments of our wedding. His candid work is breathtaking as he got such pivotal moments of both our ceremony and reception. The way he captured expressions and action was PERFECT!! We are so delighted with our photos and 100% recommend Mark Eric!
We adored working with Mark. He took our rehearsal dinner and wedding photos and they came out perfect! At times I even forgot they were there. When we received the photos we were ...
so so so happy! He captured every moment. He has a way of capturing the light at the same time of natural/organic moments that are just magical!!
We love Mark! He took our engagements, my bridals and covered our wedding, and with each meeting we had more and more if with him! His pictures are gorgeous and he poses you well a...
nd knows what he's doing. He's quick after the wedding with the big group shots and is just an all around pleasure to have around.
Makes pictures look like they came out of a magazine.
There are no words to describe Mark Eric. He was absolutely amazing. He is very expensive, but worth every penny. His work is phenomenal!
He is he best photographer! Mark captured all of our greatest memories in beautiful photos!
Hey, if you could imagine being the photographer that had to almost be perfect to be selected for my daughters wedding - well Mark Eric passed the test. Brittney had her own though...
ts of the style and type of photos she wanted to express her feelings and those of the groom. The wedding was in New Orleans - Mark had to travel - the Bridals were done North of Shreveport - Mark had to travel. The great thing is I truly believe Mark would have traveled to the ends of the earth to make my daughter happy and capture the images she desired. He and his team were organized, creative, detailed and a work ethic only a few can tout. Yes, I had my input and Mark Eric Weddings photography got the nod! Thanks Mark Eric Weddings for all of your hard work in getting Brittney's Wedding captured perfectly through her eyes!
Two thumbs up and Five Stars - from this father of the bride.
Rogers/Collins Wedding March 16, 2013 at the Chicory, New Orleans, La.
P.S. There is a second daughter, too! As you already know...
Mark Eric is a very good photographer, but not worth the money he charges. Probably would have gotten a better deal using Studio Tran, Matthew Foster, or Babs Evangelista. The pa...
ckage I got didn't even come with a flushmount book. Most of my shots are great, but I was disappointed with a few important shots I wanted. You want a photographer that makes sure you look your best, especially for a posed shot. For example, I looked awkward holding my bouquet during family shots, and I didn't understand why he didn't say anything. I bought a parasol that said "Just Married", but I couldn't even use those shots because they didn't come out right. I don't understand that this day and age with digital photography. All you have to do is look at the photo to make sure it came out right. However, he did have that photo retouched. I bought a guest sign in book, but it looked like a book I could have gotten from shutterfly for waaay cheaper. I hired him based on photos I saw on his website, but I was a little disappointed with some of mine. Like I said, he's a very good photographer with a great personality, just waaaay overpriced.
Mark and Heather are the absolute GREATEST Photographers EVER! Not only are the pictures amazing but they make you feel so comfortable during the shoots. The picutures in my weddin...
g were the MOST IMPORTANT thing so I got the best! The were amazing to work with.. so talented and just great people to work with! LOVE MARK AND HEATHER!
Mark was so easy to work with and has an incredible artistic eye. He made us feel very comfortable from our engagement shoot to the wedding day.
Mark is really fun to work with, and I appreciated his photojournalistic style on the wedding day. He spent lots of time with us on our engagement session, and on the wedding day,...
he let us set the whole schedule.
The only drawback I have is that communication is a little sparse. He knows what he is doing, but doesn't always let you in on it beforehand. For instance, he showed up at the right place and the right time for the wedding day, but everything else was communicated on the spot. Everything worked out, so as long as you don't micromanage, you'll be fine.
beautiful pictures
Absolutely a wonderful photographer! If you can book him now, do it! Mark is an extremely talented and creative individual who also does a great job of encouraging those who migh...
t not like to take pictures. He was very efficient during the wedding in getting the pictures that we had requested. I used him for my bridals as well and received tons of beautiful pictures. He is not from New Orleans, but because so many brides are using him there, he has learned the ins and outs of the city and knows where to snag the best photos! We love Mark Eric!
GREAT PEOPLE TO WORK WITH. AWESOME PICTURES
