Mark was such a pleasure to work with. From our first call with him a year before the big day, he was easy to get in touch with and always friendly.
We also did our engagement shoot with him which turned out beautiful, and our wedding was no different! He got the most beautiful shots of our big day and had even sent us a few to look at that evening! We got our entire gallery very quickly and could be more happy with them. I'd recommend Mark (and Peterson, the videographer that he works with) any day!

Mark did an amazing job photographing my wedding! He is very laid back and easy to work with. The quality of his photos is excellent. My husband and I also enjoyed our engagement shoot with him, it helped us to all know one another a little better. I highly recommend Mark if you are looking for a wedding photographer.

My husband and I are so pleased with the beautiful pictures Mark captured on our wedding day in February! We did not get to meet Mark before the wedding because we live in CO and were unable to get back to NH before the wedding; however, from the first phone call we knew we wanted to book Mark for our wedding. Mark is responsive, fun, and very easy going. Our venue was a new location for Mark to shoot at, yet you wouldn’t believe it with how amazing our pictures came out. His direction and staging on the fly was fantastic! He had the entire wedding party laughing, which helped relax everyone in front of the camera. We received our sneak peeks literally the day after our wedding, which is crazy! Not even 2 weeks later our entire wedding album was available online for us to view. Since sharing our pictures with family and friends we’ve been complimented on how beautiful our pictures came out countless times. Thank you Mark for capturing such wonderful pictures from a very special day!! If you’re looking for a photographer who knows his stuff, will capture your day exactly how it looked (no weird filters, but true to life colors!), and will have you at ease throughout the entire process then Mark is your guy!

From so many positive reviews Mark had, to his display of instagram photos to show what a great job capturing the moment and memories for couples, we knew we had to reach out and cross our fingers that he would be available on our wedding day. My husband and I knew from the moment we met over the phone with Mark he was going to be the one we booked with. We loved that he offered both a photo and video package making things very convenient. What a wonderful experience we had with Mark! Meeting him in person for our engagement photoshoot prior to the wedding really helped to get to know him, his personality and style. This being included in the package was also a plus ! And we got so many great photos from it that we used one for our welcome sign on our wedding day. I am so pleased with working alongside Mark and Peterson for videography. They are both so professional and know exactly how to quickly capture the moments; the day goes by sooo so fast!! We can not recommend this team enough. We walked away with so many memories to show with photos and video to last a lifetime. This is your sign to book now!!

Having Mark as our wedding photographer was the best decision. He was always available for questions and responded quickly. He was a blast to work with on our wedding day-he was funny and interacted with our family, bridal party, and guests. Our pictures came out better than expected and he captured the entire day. Mark HUSTLED-every photo opportunity that arose he captured it. He is so easy going and it was not awkward at all. He sent over preview pictures the night of the wedding from the day-and there was a good amount! The turn around time for pictures and our photo album was also super quick. I would highly recommend having Mark as your wedding photographer! You will not be disappointed!! Thank you again Mark! <3 Kristina & Joe Z.

I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun upbeat photographer who has a keen eye for creativity and someone looking to have a fun experience taking photographs. We got so many compliments that night that Mark was a joy to work with and made every effort to ensure it was a special occassion for everyone. The services and final product he provided in such a timely manner speaks to how much heart and soul he puts into his work!

Working with Mark was great! He was by far the most communicative vendor we worked with from start to finish. He sent us three separate sneak peeks of our wedding pictures, with the first being on the wedding night! He delivered a ton of amazing pictures and did a great job capturing the love of a very non-photogenic couple. The wedding album he made us was as beautiful. We have nothing but good things to say about Mark.

Our pictures for our engagement session and wedding were gorgeous to say the least! Our package also came with a well crafted wedding album with all our favorite hand picked photons from our special day! We are so thankful we found Mark on the Knot and that he was able to shoot our wedding!

From his fantastic personality and sense of humor, to his professionalism and prompt communication, we could not recommend Mark more. We've only received a preview of our photos so far, but they're amazing and we cannot wait to receive the rest. Work with Mark, you won't regret it.

Working with Mark for our wedding was amazing! My husband and I are not very photography savvy, so we were looking for somebody who was going to coach us through it. Mark did! He promised up to 600 photos and we got almost 900 from our wedding alone! Having the engagement shoot included in the package was the perfect way to get comfy in front of the camera and work with Mark before the big day!

We had our engagement photos taken using Mark's services and we were very happy with the results. My fiancé was stressed about them coming out well but Mark's disarming nature made the shoot fun and easy. We had him come to a location he had never been to before and he still managed to lead the way through all the best places and find some gorgeous sights. Highly recommended for his personability, photography skills, and excellent communication.

Mark was a an excellent communicator, a resource for us throughout planning our wedding day, and most importantly, an unbelievable photographer.
For our engagement photos he braved 40 mph winds and bitter cold, all while keeping us at ease as he took unbelievable photos one after another. We thought that we’d have to wait for weeks to see our results but Mark had them back to us in the matter of a few days.
We knew then we had picked the right photographer and that was confirmed on our wedding day when again, faced with difficult weather conditions pulled a rabbit out of a hat and captured the most beautiful photos inside and out of my husband and I, our wedding party, and even helped us corral dozens of family members that had dispersed throughout the venue.
We are so grateful that we found Mark and that he was able to so beautifully capture our special day.

Not only was he able to wrangle a very large wedding party and group of family, but he made everyone smile and laugh while doing it. His work speaks for itself; everyone who saw our wedding photos immediately complimented how beautiful they were, and we have Mark to thank for that. If you want a photographer that is incredibly talented, fun to be around, and will add to your wedding day, Mark is the guy for you! Thank you, Mark!! :)

Our search for the perfect wedding photographer led us to Mark Ducharme, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the results. From the first consultation to the final delivery of the photos, Mark proved to be a true artist with an exceptional eye for detail and an undeniable passion for capturing the essence of our special day.
Mark managed to seamlessly blend into the background while expertly navigating through the day, ensuring that every moment, big or small, was documented with precision and artistry. His ability to capture the raw, authentic emotions of our loved ones is truly remarkable, and we are forever grateful for the memories he has frozen in time.
The composition and creativity displayed in each photograph are beyond compare. Every shot tells a unique story, and together, they form a beautiful narrative of our wedding day. Mark has a talent for finding the perfect angles and lighting, resulting in a collection of images that are both timeless and breathtaking.
Aside from his technical prowess, Mark was an absolute pleasure to work with. He approached the entire process with professionalism, patience, and a warm demeanor, making us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire day. His ability to connect with us and our guests ensured that the photographs radiated genuine joy and happiness.
The turnaround time for the final photos was impressive, and the quality surpassed our expectations. The images were beautifully edited, enhancing the natural beauty of the moments captured without sacrificing authenticity.
If you are searching for a wedding photographer who not only has a keen eye for detail but also a genuine passion for immortalizing the magic of your special day, look no further than Mark Ducharme. We wholeheartedly recommend his services, as he has left us with a timeless collection of memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you, Mark Ducharme, for being an integral part of our wedding and for turning fleeting moments into everlasting works of art.

My husband and I couldn't be happier that we found Mark. We are not comfortable in front of the camera and are definitely not a couple that likes to be the center of attention but mark made us comfortable and we had a blast at our engagement shoot by the time we got married we felt natural and comfortable in front of the camera. Mark made the shoots fun and put us at ease which I think is the most important thing I couldn't wait to get our wedding photos because I knew they would be amazing

Mark was a lot of fun to work with. We are delighted we did our engagement shoot with him and had an opportunity to meet and work with him before our wedding. It made our wedding day feel much more personal. Mark reached out exactly when he said he would for all the touch-points leading up to our wedding. He was on time, prepared, energetic, funny, and most importantly, he is a great photographer!! Mark has a process for capturing all of the formal photos after the ceremony that works without having to create a "shot list" to send to him before. He managed to photograph the various groupings of the important people in our lives and did it quickly so we could start celebrating with our guests.

He organized and directed our group so we got all the very best photos and worked with us through all the rain on our wedding day. We love every single photo we got back. I was so excited to see our night of sneak peaks and cannot believe the quick turn around time for our full gallery, not even two weeks! Throughout the year after booking him in July of 2022 for our June 2023 wedding he checked in with us and answered any questions we had quickly. We would recommend Mark every time!

From the very beginning Mark was incredible. Every request and or idea, Mark was not only executing but was also encouraging us. We were a little crazy and wanted our engagement shoot to be in the snow, and Mark was there taking the best pictures. The free engagement pictures was a HUGE plus and allowed us to get familiar with Mark for our wedding day. Our families are a little hectic and Mark was fast and efficient, he knew what pictures to take, where to be and what to avoid. Mark also gave us a sneak peak less than 24 hrs later! I hear stories from other brides on how their pictures took over 8 weeks, Mark gave us full access to our pictures in 2 weeks, and they absolutely amazing. Do not think twice about booking Mark, he is worth it!

Mark was such a FANTASTIC photographer for our wedding on June 10th, 2023 in Madbury, New Hampshire. We met him in September 2022 for our engagement photos (which are included in your wedding package, huge plus!) and had a blast with him. He has such a perfect eye for capturing the most beautiful photos. I am so overwhelmed with how stunning our wedding photos are. HIGHLY recommend Mark to capture your perfect day! Outstanding professionalism, attention to detail, punctuality, and communication.
He was very responsive to our initial inquiry and was flexible with our changes in schedule for engagement photos. My husband is 1 of 10 so coordinating those family photos was no easy task but he did it with such grace and fun! Our guests and families loved chatting with him and being a part of those moments with us!

Mark was great to work with. He offers free engagement shoots with his wedding packages which was very helpful for my partner and I to get aqainted with him and his work. His personality made it easy for us to get comfortable posing for pictures and have fun. We got our engagement photos back the next day and loved them. Mark was very communicative throughout the time leading up to the wedding. He reached out when he said he would and took the most amazing photos of our big day. He helped us keep to our wedding timeline and was dedicated to capturing beautiful shots. The best part is that he sent us a handful of preview photos the night our wedding ended and all the photos within 2 weeks! We love reliving our wedding day through these photographs. Would highly recommend Mark as your photographer!

Similar to many other couples' reviews, Mark was amazing and we are so fortunate to have had him capture our wedding day! When we met Mark for our engagement shoot, he was quick to make jokes and make us laugh -- getting us both comfortable in front of the camera. On our weding day he was punctual and organized. He was great at directing us where to be, where to look and what to do. Mark captured every type of photograph and had everyone feeling very relaxed and natural. Not even 12 hours after our wedding, Mark sent us preview pictures, which were amazing! Needless to say, we would recommend Mark time and time again. It is clear he has a passion for photography and captures life's big moments in fantastic ways.

By now we’ve already seen some preview shots from Mark’s work at our wedding yesterday and we are incredibly impressed! He does exceptional work and this is coming from two people who are both photographers as well! Wedding photographer, in particular, goes above and beyond the technical skills: it requires a lot of “people skill” when capturing those special moments, especially on such an emotional day…compounded even more by the stress of looming bad weather. He went above and beyond to make sure we got the outdoor photos we so desperately wanted before the storms rolled in and did a fantastic job indoors capturing the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. He’s a great team player and worked with us, my hair and makeup team, the wedding party, our friends and relatives, the venue, and our DJ to set the stage for some magical shots, We would both highly recommend!

If you’re shy or awkward in front of the camera, Mark is your guy because he will capture the best photos of you. We couldn’t have been happier with choosing Mark as our wedding photographer. My husband and I would highly recommend Mark R. Ducharme Photography to anyone in need of capturing the most precious moments. Thanks again Mark!

Mark was truly such a joy to work with! He had us cracking up the entire day for our photos which came out beautiful on a hot sunny day. He is very fast, efficient, and will do what he needs to for the perfect shot. Not only did he capture amazing photos of us, but took great couples shots of our guests. All our guests remarked how efficient he was, which is a huge plus if you have a tight schedule or a large wedding - he gets all the shots needed and plans well beforehand!
If anyone is awkward or nervous around a camera, Mark is your guy. He will direct you through any and every pose and get you laughing for natural smiles. You spend a majority of your wedding day with the photographer, and we were so glad ours was Mark!
Definitely book this guy, I cannot recommend him highly enough!

Mark was amazing to work with, highly recommend! He is super friendly and goofy to get you comfortable whether it is the engagement shoot or for the big day itself. He gives great prompts and pose suggestions. He is also incredibly fast at editing and processing the photos - we got sneak peak photos literally on our wedding night and continued to get more previews over the next week or two. And had all our edited photos back within a month! That is practically unheard of with other wedding photographers. Mark also hand delivered our customized wedding album to make sure it was in pristine condition and everything we wanted. He takes his business seriously and knows how to give customers what they are looking for! Thank you again for everything Mark!

So impressed by Mark’s work for both the engagement session and wedding photos. He was very attentive, gave his professional opinion/suggestion on what would look amazing for poses and locations, and made sure he captured everything we were looking for. Our wedding day was rainy and cold, and he made sure to get all the photos, inside and outside, even with the crappy weather outside. I’m so glad we went with Mark. He lessened the stress of the day, and we had total confidence in him from day one at our introductory meeting.

Mark R Ducharme Photography was amazing from beginning to end. We opted for the add on photographer to assist with photographs (I wanted as many as possible). I can not believe how many photos we received. There were so many great memories captured. Marks photos are beautiful. I would hire him again and recommend him to anyone I know. I am very satisfied with this vendor. He made the process easy and stress free.

We are so happy we chose Mark to photograph our wedding! From the get go, Mark was very responsive and professional. When we had any questions throughout the process, he was always super quick to respond. On the day of the wedding he was great at making sure everything flowed smoothly, which helped make our wedding day less stressful for us.
Mark also did a wonderful job at making everyone feel super comfortable in front of the camera! He has a funny and down to earth personality and if you felt even a little bit uncomfortable- he would crack a joke (which really helped loosen people up and get some great authentic smiles!)
He was also great at directing people who may not really know how pose in front of a camera and also was great at capturing so many amazing candid shots of our loved ones! We highly recommend Mark if you want some amazing photographs to look back on for years to come!

Mark is amazing! He is a very nice and professional. I am camera-shy and was nervous about the engagement pictures and wedding, but he was able to help me relax in front of the camera. He is patient and cracked some jokes to make me feel more comfortable. The pictures turned out gorgeous! I'm really happy that we went with Mark. I definitely recommend him!

We chose Mark after scouring The Knot for natural, but vibrant, pictures. He was great to work with from our first phone call to the last photo of our wedding night.
Mark is also hilarious and made us, our wedding party and our families feel very comfortable in front of the camera with genuine smiles and laughter. He was also willing to walk around the city for our engagement shoot and first look, and has a very good eye for interesting backgrounds.
We cannot wait to receive our photos and spend a night looking through them!

Mark was wonderful! We had to find a new photographer 3 weeks before our wedding in a panic and got Mark’s name from a friend. We were worried that we didn’t get to meet him or do an engagement session beforehand, but it turns out we didn’t have to worry about a thing! Mark was incredibly responsive and understanding in a tricky situation. The day of the wedding he was excellent — he got all the photos we asked for without making us feel rushed or on the spot. We aren’t comfortable at all in front of the camera, but Mark had us laughing and enjoying the process the whole day. He captured a great range of photos including guests, family shots, venue and dancing. The photos of us are STUNNING and we love them so much. Highly recommend this talented professional. We will be enjoying all our photos for years to come! Thanks Mark!

We hired Mark as our photographer for our June 2021 wedding based on recommendations from numerous friends that had used him previously. Mark was an absolute blast to work with. We had so much fun with him at our engagement shoot & on our wedding day - he knows how to make you laugh so the photos are more natural. His process is fun yet very efficient
Most importantly, our photos came out AMAZING. He has an artistic eye that provided us with some very unique and special photos. And his turnaround time is fast! He was sharing edited photos with us the day after our wedding, and the previews kept rolling in that week. We had our online viewing link and USB drive of photos just a few weeks after the wedding. We are so excited to get the album and prints that come with the package we selected.
If you are looking for a fun. talented and affordable wedding photographer, Mark is your guy!

Mark at MRD Photography did a lovely job for our engagement photos and wedding day! The pictures came out beautiful and really captured our special moment. He was reliable, responsive ,easy to work with and was very reasonable. Most photographers do not include prints and photo albums, the package I got through Mark included the digital copies, 2 beautiful leather albums as well as additional professional prints. My husband and I recommend Mark to work with you on your special occasion!

I don’t know where to begin but Mark was amazing. A lot of stress going into planning and than picking a photographer. But from the first time we talked to Mark we knew he would be great. Met Mark for our engagement photos and they were great and we just knew the wedding photos would be amazing. Very professional, great sense of humor to makes you smile and the pictures were amazing. Would highly recommend Mark for any event.

We can not thank Mark enough for his amazing work for our wedding! He responded quickly to our inquiry and remained a great communicator throughout everything. We had an absolute blast doing our engagement photos and even more so at the wedding! Our bridal party and family were very impressed with his personality and effectiveness and he made everyone laugh and feel at ease all day long. He possesses all of the great traits you look for in a photographer PLUS he is so fast at getting preview photos back to you and on social media! We could not be more pleased with our choice to hire Mark and we are recommending him to everyone we know!

Working with Mark was a pleasure! Not only is he an amazing photographer, but he is a genuinely nice person who wants you to have the best photos of your day possible. And he delivers! We hired him to photograph our wedding and as plans changed due to COVID, he worked with us to still be able to photograph our day. He arrived early and was already taking pictures of the scenery before we even realized he was there. The pictures he took are wonderful and we are very pleased to be able to display them in our home. Overall, highly recommend Mark! You won't be disappointed!! Plus, he made our dogs look great!

I worked as a wedding planner for years so have had experience and exposure to a multitude of different photographers. We chose Mark for our own wedding photography because of his artistic style and authentic personality. We both enjoyed working with him from start to finish. He provided teasers on the day of our wedding and turns around the final product quickly and in a way that's easy to access all the high-resolution photos quickly to do with them what you want -- Shutterfly, CVS, or Google prints in no time! Highly recommend Mark!!!

Mark was such an excellent photographer to work with!! From the get go he was responsive and great about answering questions and getting the details set. As a couple who feels a little awkward being photographed, Mark could not have put us more at ease and made the whole process so fun! The day of he was a steady presence and his sense of humor was very much appreciated. He handled family photos (which I found particularly stressful myself!) like a total pro, and was especially wonderful with one of our family members with dementia. The photographs were returned to us in a timely manner, and the teaser alone was worth the overall cost! His services are an excellent value for his professionalism, great personality, and amazing photography skills. I would recommend him to any and all couples getting married out there!

When first contacting Mark he seemed like a reputable photographer. Given the COVID pandemic which is causing our wedding to need to be postponed out of safety and health reasons in my it appears his level of professionalism diminished, in my opinion typing to a consumer " u" shows a lack of professional correspondence. I had to ask twice about refund for the deposit given COVID19. Mark ignored the first inquiry but did respond to the second request. He reported " I'm keeping the deposit/retainer due to the other potential clients have asked for that date in the past before covid pandemic started therefore the deposit may be used if you decided to use me next year or when u get married" Mark is the only vendor I have encountered that is not given back deposits. Again the cancelation was due to a PANDEMIC not any other reason.

I am very disappointing in the fact you went to all my social media accounts and spammed t...
hem with a 1 star rating due to the fact you didn't get your non-refundable retainer which you signed a contract for. I have been completely professional with you, flexible and understanding when speaking with you and with regards to your decision to postpone your wedding, I offered specifically if you want to have your wedding next year I'd be happy to be a part of it and the retainer would be applied to that. Your wedding date was scheduled for October my busiest time of the year in which I had several dates previously requested for that date hence the non-refundable retainer. I treat all my clients with respect and consideration especially now that there is a pandemic. I have had half my year either postponed or cancelled to which I have offered services and moved dates to next year for their weddings. Every one was understanding with me and willing to work with me, except you. I even had other clients that are totally understanding of what a non-refundable deposit means unlike yourself who feels like you were entitled to it back. You were the only one that flipped out and reacted immaturely because I wasn't returning the deposit/retainer back. I spoke with dozens of future and previous clients after you spammed my accounts negatively, and they all agree'd with me and were quite taken by your abrupt response and rating me poorly. You have had no photography service from me and are basing it an issue in which you signed a contract and wanted to break the agreement. I have been in business for over 13 years, I work extremely hard, I value all my clients and take pride in my work. It's distressing and hurtful to know you are unhappy and have rated me poorly. Good luck with whatever your future holds. I'd actually appreciate you removing this poor review and we go our separate ways and call it a day.

Our wedding was a basically a destination wedding for us and Mark made it flawless! We did the Engagement shots around his hometown and had great results.
The actual wedding day was brilliant. It was freezing and we went up the chairlift at Sunapee and Mark was an absolute trooper! Our favorite photos are from the mountaintop (I really believe that other photographers would have passed). We did a variety of poses and the final
Photos were just gorgeous. We also had a second shooter, Jimmy, who was fabulous. Jimmy worked with the groomsmen and he did a lot of great photos with them too. Mark directed the usual bridal party photos and we didn’t need to think about anything! 10/10 would recommend! Thank you Mark & Jimmy!

After many hours of research and interviews with many photographers we chose to move forward with Mark Ducharme and we are so glad we did. The entire experience from the engagement pictures where Mark introduces you to his style and gets to know you personally to the amazing experience he provides on the wedding day where he is there to catch every magical moment with his trained eye sets Mark apart from any other photographer. He worked harder than any vendor and by the end of the process becomes like an old friend. The value that Mark brings to the experience far exceeds his cost. He doesn't just take the picture he captures the moment with the appropriate lighting or the perfect back drop. Mark works with extreme passion as if he is taking pictures for his own daughter wedding, refusing to take a less than perfect shot. Out of all the vendors we had for our wedding this was the only review I wrote because we valued his work so much and he deserves all the praise. I can't stress enough how perfect the entire experience was. Mark is truly an artist.

Having a great photographer really elevates the experience of the wedding day, and the memories you get to enjoy thereafter. Mark was wonderful and easy to work with. We opted for a package that included an engagement shoot, which took place at a handful of locations in NH, and helped us get to know Mark and be ready and relaxed for the wedding day. Our wedding photos are above and beyond! We had a smaller wedding, so we are fortunate to have gorgeous photos of every person in attendance, as well as perfectly-captured images of every moment of the day. His attention to detail and ability to see people's personalities shine through is remarkable. We received some great photos right after the wedding, and a full set on a thumb drive within a few weeks. We plan to see Mark again in future for family portraits. Don't hesitate in hiring Mark for your important occasions.

Mark is very personable and professional. His prices are reasonable. The quality of his work is good. He hand delivered our album. The turnaround time for the photos are excellent. His packages include the engagement photo shoot which we used for our "save the date" mailing. I was very happy with the overall value of our package.
