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.

Model session: Antonia Child

I first worked with Antonia a couple of months ago on a one to one training session. We’ve worked together a few times now and the results are always great. This time we teamed up with a great make-up artist, Terri Lee Lindley.
These images were for an autumnal update to Antonia’s book.
