Mark completely captured the spirit of both pets. Max, my four-year-old English Springer, has boundless energy and an amazing number of facial expressions. Mark created a tri-panel series of photos of Max are priceless - from his 'huh, what?' expression to his 'I so couldn't be happier' grin. The photos he took of Samantha, my cat, are absolutely beautiful - she's pretty shy so it wasn't an easy job. Mark is great to work with - he builds an easy rapport with pets and their people and brings a lot of integrity to his work. He's gifted.

Mark shot spectacular photos of our wedding, and skillfully blended in the live-action moments with the staged shots he took before the service.

He was not intrusive at all, but he still managed to capture all the key moments.  His greatest photographs were the informal pictures of guests chatting, dancing, and enjoying themselves at the reception.

Thanks, Mark!

We were thrilled with the how well Mark worked with our cute but shy Sheltie. It was clear from the first contacts with Mark he really enjoys his work and that comes out in everything he does. Mark took the time to socialize with Sierra, which is not always easy. it was great to see the first pictures within about a week of the photo session. The final pictures turned out great and it was a snap to order the pictures we wanted. Now we have some awesome pictures.

To be honest, I never thought anyone would be able to well capture my girls- two insane and energy-riddled Italian Greyhounds. I love them desperately, but all my photos of them revealed small streaks, or just a tail as they galloped through the frame. So when I won a gift certificate for Mark Rogers at a fund raiser (the very fabulous Junior League Fashion Show!), I had pretty low expectations.

Boy was I wrong.

Now only was Mark able to capture their energy and playfulness at the beach, but he also came back for a second session (no additional charge!) at our home, where he assumed the role of Dog Whisperer and convinced the little beasts to sit still- a feat generally only achieved for seconds and with a lot of bribery.

The results? GORGEOUS. From the blush of pink across their noses to the graceful arc of their leaps, he got it all. Some of the shots are hilarious, some loving, some showing the natural elegance of the breed, but all are outstanding. Mark also took the time to get the photos re-printed when he wasn't perfectly happy with the color. He really cares about the finished product, and the satisfaction of his clients (including the pups).

It took me almost a year to frame wedding photos, but I put up the portraits of the girls the day Mark dropped them off.

Mark did a fantastic job. Our dog is of course the best looking one on his site now... lucky him!!! In all seriousness... Mark was friendly, professional and prompt. He made Champ feel comfortable and they got along great. Mark really got down on his level (literally!) The shots came out great and we ordered a ton!

Thanks again Mark! Job well done.

Mark is a great photographer and extremely patient. He photographed our blind kitty Koko for Pet Food Express to highlight Nine Lives Foundation in Redwood City. Since our cat is blind you can imagine that the clicking noise of the camera was a bit scary. Mark spent time with him, playing and laying on the floor. Koko became  so comfortable that he let Mark come extremely close to his face for his close ups!
We have three other cats that were also trying to get Mark's attention. He  was able to capture Koko's personality in the photos.  I would highly recommend Mark for taking photos of your pets, children and events. He is responsive and professional.

Mark just completed a photo shoot involving our two Shih Tzus, one Moluccan Cockatoo, and three strong-minded cats. His ability to capture candid shots is amazing and he does so with the patience of a Zen Master. It's hard to describe but he becomes one with the pet for the minutes that he is working with them. The quality of the photos is outstanding and what I like best is that the photos make me admire even more the special qualities of my pets. With his techniques, super cameras, and patience, he manages to capture their spirit and essence. I've already asked Mark to help me give a surprise gift of a photo session to a good friend of ours with the biggest German Shepherd in the world. And I can hardly wait to tell that friend!

Mark has been great. After I learned about how generously he donates his services to the SF SPCA, I booked a session with him last week, to take photos of my golden retriever for this year's holiday cards. We shot at his wonderfully inviting home, which has a beautifully landscaped backyard. Mark's wife was so welcoming as well - - it felt very personal. Mark is friendly, professional, and has a very warm presence with animals, clearly putting them at ease. The session was relaxed and highly productive. He produced the gallery very quickly, in less than a week. And he had very good recommendations about services for printing cards. In the selection process, he was helpful without being heavy-handed. He was very responsive to my preference and produced the final files within days. I highly recommend him, without reservation. You'll be really happy with your results.

I am in love with the photos Mark takes.  He has captured some fantastic shots of my chihuahuas.  He really does a great job with the dogs that are hams and those that are camera shy!

Mark came over to take some pictures of my rabbit, Etta, who has a lot of energy and personality.  I was worried that the photo session may not go as smooth, but it turned out to be great.  It's as if Mark knows how to communicate with animals.  During the photo session, my rabbit felt so comfortable, and started cleaning her feet/fur and totally being her usual-self.  And... the pictures turn out to be AMAZING.  I was blown away by the beauty and subtle details he captured in each shot.  Thank you, Mark.

Mark is an awesome photographer with an excellent ability to capture those moments that are difficult to capture due to the nature of animals.  He was able to capture some great shots of my Dog Chance and have fun in the process.  After the photo shoot he followed up very quickly, posted pics for me to choose from and was extremely patient and professional when it took me so long to decide on the prints I actually wanted.  This was mostly due to how many great shots I needed to choose from.
