about
Valentina Weddings
My style is relaxed and informal, which gives a documentary style of coverage throughout the day. I want the day to flow at its own pace and I will be with you to capture you and your guests having fun and enjoying the day.
I believe good photography is all about the people, the moments, the fun, love and emotions. The pictures will tell the story of the day, they will make you laugh, they will make you smile and will last a lifetime. I am based in North Yorkshire, however I photograph weddings throughout the UK and the world. I always say I have the best job in the world as I get to travel to amazing places and spend the day with couples on the happiest day of their life. Always seen behind the camera with a big smile on my face and a passion for amazing photographs. When not behind the camera, I am either walking my dog Barney or spending time with my amazing (and supportive!) wife Lesley.

CRAIG & VICKY // MIDDLETON LODGE
“We couldn’t recommend mark enough! He was the perfect photographer for us, from start to finish he was amazing. Lots of people told me you want a photographer that is always around you but you just don’t know it and that was definitely the case at our wedding. We are beyond excited to recover our finished photos! Thank you again Mark.”

Jessica // Italy
We booked Mark to photograph our wedding in Italy as photos were one of the most important elements for us and we thought Mark’s work was excellent. We met with Mark the day before the wedding to go through some details and felt instantly at ease. On the wedding day itself Mark was photographing non-stop, for the most part whilst we were unaware. He also knew exactly when and where to go to get the most magical images. He has a really friendly and calming nature which is just what you need on the big day. Shortly after the wedding we received hundreds of amazing photos, and still now we are trying to narrow them down for our album! We are in awe of our photos and look at them all the time, we wish we could do it all again! Thank you so much Mark! Mr & Mrs Hughes

Mark’s bubbly, genuine & positive character instantly puts you at ease, which is exactly what’s needed to obtain the best photographs possible.
I already knew Mark personally, and due to working in the industry knew of his flawless professional reputation. I contacted Mark as soon as we got engaged to check his availability, before we had even secured a venue!
Mark’s upbeat personality and passion for his job shone bright all day long.
Despite being open minded and laid back, his knowledge and adhering to timings was also invaluable on the wedding day itself.
There was no other photographer we wanted to share our most special day with, and we can not recommend him highly enough! His photographs are simply stunning, when combined with his nature, makes him a one in a million!
Mark was snap happy from morning until night - well and truly capturing our fairytale wedding day to the full.

Mrs Dale
I don’t think words can describe how blessed we were to have Mark photograph our special day. With less than 36 hours to prepare and travelling over 2 hours to get to our venue in Gretna Green, he went above and beyond for us and we cannot thank him enough for everything he did. So professional, so approachable, polite, enthusiastic and accommodating even when the rain and wind were against us at times he remained calm and nothing was too much trouble. We felt comfortable around him and he blended into our day effortlessly.
Just by showing us a few of the snaps he took on the screen we could see the pictures are going to be amazing. We are so excited to see the finished result.
Thank you truly for your outstanding effort. The new Mr & Mrs Dale!
