Mark is great to work with. He shot our wedding in August and he captured the day perfectly. I have hundreds of amazing photos and I find it difficult to pick my favourite. He understood clearly what we wanted in our wedding photos. He responded to our calls and emails quickly and answered all our questions. He captured all the smallest details and has allowed me to remember our wedding day just the way it was, perfect. My wedding photos are so beautiful that I am brought to tears by how Mark was captured the special moments my husband and i and our family we shared on the day. I highly recommend Mark, he is professional and reliable! I look forward to using Mark in the future to capture more of these important moments!!!!

Mark Avellino was absolutely amazing as our wedding photographer. During our initial meeting, he made us feel comfortable and secure that he was committed to telling our story. Mark was so friendly, understanding and always easy to contact throughout the whole process. We chose Mark because he has great customer service, excellent photography and and was well priced. Thanks so much, Mark!

We had the great pleasure of having Mark shoot our wedding in March 2015. He is meticulous and has great attention to detail – evident from our first meeting together. The process from start to finish with Mark was flawless. He really took the time to listen to what we were hoping to create, all the while offering suggestions and guidance to best make our dream photos a reality.
On the day of our wedding, Mark’s approach was to blend in and be non-obtrusive. He really did make us feel comfortable and relaxed. As moments presented themselves, he captured them with ease as if they were all planned. Our family and friends commented on his professionalism and ability to ‘disappear’ into the crowd, able to capture those ‘unexpected’ shots no one sees coming.
Now that we have our photos, we are glad we placed our trust in him to capture the most special day of our lives. Mark’s photos are beautifully shot, finished and captured. So many of our loved ones have commented on the ‘uniqueness’ of what Mark has been able to capture, and we will forever be grateful for his time, patience and craftsmanship.

Right from the beginning when we were researching for a photographer we came across Mark on the internet. The first thing that captured us to his business was a photo he had of a married couple in front of a tram in Melbourne. We thought that was so unique (even though we didn’t have our wedding in Melbourne) Within 30 mins after requesting a quote Mark rang and had a quick discussion about our requirements etc and booked us in to come and see him and at that point we felt really comfortable with him as he took the time to get to know us and we thought it was quite exciting to go with a photographer who hadn’t done a wedding in Geelong before as we would be the first and he would have fresh eyes to look at locations along the waterfront for pictures on the day. During our wedding day when he came to our apartments, he was professional right from the word go, was never pushy let us do our thing and when it was time for a certain pic he would let us know. During the whole ceremony/ reception we didn’t even know he was there, never in our face and captured great moments for us that we are going to treasure for the rest of our lives. I would soooooo recommend Mark to anyone if its for your wedding or just for a special occasion, you will get the best service for your day and wont be disappointed. We will definitely be using Mark again if the time comes for us to have a family of our own

Mark is so warm and welcoming. We loved the fact that he really cared about what we wanted, and was really flexible – unlike some other photographers we spoke to who cared more about themselves!!! The process was really relaxed and it showed in the amazing photos. We love them!

Mark was very organised and easy going from our first meeting. The photos are absolutely amazing! We couldn’t be happier! He gave us some really good ideas for shots and advice before and during the day. Well before we expected Mark had the photos ready for us! Highly recommend him!
I like to make the experience a fun one and very much view the day as a collaboration between us so that the images we create will form part of each family’s collective memory, passed down to generations and may be used in the future to form a slideshow more..
