Testimonial 
Mark was our DOP on Lark Rise for three years, and his work was outstanding. We had to shoot quickly and still achieve a filmic look, which he achieved for over thirty episodes, providing photography that was consistent to the story telling and serving the actors well and detailed in way that helped us to hold onto the show's true identity.
Mark was also DOP on two short films I directed, and his calmness, great skill, and good humour contributed to a hugely pleasant and productive shoot. I am very grateful for his generous collaboration and and a sharp eye for a great shot!
