Marc was absolutely amazing! I told him that he could go where ever was needed to get the photo. He did not disappoint! He was absolutely wonderful. He is also very polite & patient. He asked prior to the wedding day what photos I know for a fact that I wanted & then he took photos of whatever captured his eye. His price is also very reasonable considering the quality of the photos. Marc also had the photos sent to me within about 3 weeks after the wedding! Marked By Grace is just all around great! Our photos for our big day are stunning. Thanks again Marc!

~Desiree D~ ★★★★★

Marc from Marked by Grace took phenomenal photos of our wedding and was very experienced in telling us how to pose and taking expert photos with his two cameras and lighting equipment. He was very thorough in taking pictures throughout every minute of the 8 hour wedding day - he captured everything we told him to and more - somehow he took photos of all the details of our wedding in addition to some shots we didn't get to appreciate the day of but now we get to see them through the moments he captured! We are so grateful for Marc's amazing photos but also for his calming presence, reassuring demeanor, and helpful guidance throughout the wedding day - we would highly recommend him and his work to anyone!

~Alice L~ ★★★★★

My husband and I had our wedding photos taken with Marc and we wouldn’t have changed anything. They came out PERFECT!! He should be charging way more for the quality of the photos. We also got them so fast after the wedding!! Now we have to pick which ones to print!! Please if you are on the fence trust me!! Go with him!!

~Kaitlyn C~ ★★★★★

Marked by grace productions completely blew us away and exceeded our expectations. When we were looking for a photographer, we were worried we wouldn’t be able to find one who was in our budget while still being high quality. When we found him, he was quick to respond, called us to answer any questions and get any info needed, and anytime we had questions we could just message him and ask. On wedding day, he came and got shots we didn’t even ask him to get (we’re so glad he did). We was so kind and anytime we asked for a certain shot, he was more than willing. You could tell he knew exactly what he was doing.

~Abby H~ ★★★★★

I had the most amazing experience with Mark By Grace Production. The photos for my wedding turned out beautiful. And the video that Marc created for my wedding was so outstanding and breathtaking! I cried when I saw the finished product of his work. The company went above and beyond my expectations. I am greatly blessed to have found Mark By Grace to shoot my special day, one that I will forever remember. Thank you so much for doing such a phenomenal job! God Bless,

You will find the about page from my existing website between the “” below. You can use this section primarily for tone of voice and style as opposed to content. Make sure that all references to the self are in the first person singular, as I am the only photographer on my team. Please also ensure that there are no references to “our team” or “our photographer”. Instead, all writing should be coming directly from me. I would also like it to be quite down to earth and without lots of fluff and flowery language.

“If you have photo/video needs, I would love to be a part of it! My goal is to make the whole process as stress free and enjoyable as possible! Do you have a great location idea in mind? I'm on board. Are you unsure about it all? Shy? Or just overwhelmed and wanting direction about everything. I'll help walk with you and pick location, attire, and tell you how to stand and what to do, so you don't feel silly or awkward. We've all been there and that's no fun. So what are you waiting for! Send me a message and let’s get the process going! If you're still not sure, or have more questions feel free to ask away. I'm all ears.”
