Mark Skeet Photography bio picture

Personal service

We founded Mark Skeet Photography to create a company where having your picture taken was a truly memorable experience.

From your first phone call to the delivery of your chosen art you will only deal with either myself or my wife, Mandy. At your wedding or lifestyle portrait experience I will be your photographer.

Based in Leeds, West Yorkshire, we cover assignments anywhere in the world.

About me

Hi I'm Mark and I'm a wedding and lifestyle portrait photographer.

I'm married to my beautiful wife, Mandy and proud father to Hannah, Amelia and Jemima.

Whilst my background is in web development I've been a photographer in one form or another for 15 years.

Away from the camera I like to get together with friends and spend as much time as I can with the family.

Busman’s holiday

Being a photographer can often seem like a glamourous occupation but in reality it’s a lot of hard work (cue violins), so it’s always good to have a bit of downtime even if that consists of photographing people! So the other day I was lucky enough to meet up again with the superbly talented photographers...

Jake & Nathaniel – lifestyle portrait session

I met up with Fiona and Kevin and their lovely sons, Jake and Nathaniel a couple of weeks ago to provide mum and dad with some fresh, new images of their ever developing boys.

Like all our location based...

It was my immense pleasure to work with Gabby and her wonderful family, once more, recently to capture yet another exciting stage of her life.
I first photographed Gabby and James at their wedding in 2007, and have subsequently done a couple of pieces of commercial work for Gabrielle’s wedding chair cover hire business.
This time it...

Penny & Martyn

Had a wonderful time with Penny & Martyn during my time in Cumbria, recently. Lovely people, with a great sense of humour. It just doesn’t feel like work sometimes.
Here’s a sample of the images from our session which is indicative of the style of images we create during our relaxed portrait photo sessions.

Model Session: Ewa Paczkowska

Last weekend I had the real privilege of working with Ewa on adding to her portfolio. Often I help newer models with high quality portfolio images, but Ewa was different in that she’d already done a fair bit of modeling back home in Poland.
The result was some great images as we could concentrate on...

Portrait session: Charlotte

Had a brief but fun portrait photography session with Charlotte and her mum, Emma, earlier this week in Cumbria. Being a teenager Charlotte was clearly fashion-minded and as mum was keen to get the images Charlotte wanted we went for a more fashion edged shoot.
Here’s a few from our time together.

Portrait Session: Amelia

Just back from 2 days on location in the Lakes, more of those images to come over the next week or so, but before abandoning the family for a couple of days, myself and Amelia had an impromptu portrait photography session. Exactly the kind of images we capture for our paying clients who seek to...
