About Me
I’m Mark and I’m the photographer at True North Studio. I’ve been photographing headshots for actors, creatives and business people for over 20 years now. I love to meet people and chat – you’ll discover that if you book in with me & come to the studio in Garforth. I believe that a good headshot is more than just an image, or a likeness of your face. It should say something about you & your personality.
All of my sessions are very relaxed, almost like a conversation, with a few photos. I like people to come to their headshot session armed with a recommendation for a book, movie or album that they love. It tells me a bit about you and it gives me a recommendations list for stuff to watch, read and listen to afterwards
I live between Leeds and York now with my wife & daughter, who’s 10, as well as our dog and cat.
Outside of photographing headshots, I’m working on a few documentary photographic projects which you can see on my personal website.
I also still photograph weddings, I just wanted to keep that side of the business separate from the headshots, but you can see my wedding website too.
What else could you possibly want to know?
- I photograph everything, all the time.
- I name my cameras. I shouldn’t, because it makes it harder to trade them in when they get worn out.
- I used to run ultra marathons, but my knees told me not too so I prefer cycling now.
- I love a new, crisp, untouched notebook. Japanese stationery is something else.
- I have a collection of Bonsai trees.
- I listen to most music, but I’m really loving Tom Waits at the moment.
