Here is some more personal information about me and how I became the photographer I am today, taken from part of an interview I did for VoyageDenver. You can also see another article was published in Shoutout Colorado here. I started as photographers often do with a camera in hand as I traveled. I grew up in Victoria, Canada, and I was lucky enough to go to Europe every few years to visit my extended family.
The new landscapes and architecture inspired me. I inherited my mother's DSLR film camera body and lenses in my early 20's. As a competitive runner at the time I took photos of my friends competing in races. Then I did my first wedding for a friend for free in 2003. I remember the adrenaline rush I got after surviving having to change film right before the First Kiss and still getting the shot.

This is my portrait photography portfolio of Fort Collins clients that includes both individuals as well as larger groups. I am a Fort Collins portrait photographer and this portfolio showcases my photographs of families, high school seniors portraits, and individual portraits for business headshots and corporate clients.
I work with you to personalize your wedding package based on how much coverage you need and any features you'd like. Since every wedding is unique, couples find my flexibility helpful and refreshing. I know budget is top of mind when planning a wedding, so to give you an idea most of my couples invest within the $3000-$4000 range.
These wedding photos feature a ceremony and reception at SkyView at Fall River Village Resort, one of the top wedding venues in Estes Park, Colorado. This epic venue has sweeping views of Rocky Mountain National Park and the Continental Divide. Their ceremony location on their wrap-around viewing deck allows for amazing views with the convenience of an elevator for easy accessibility and is partially covered in case of rain or snow.
In these unprecedented times, we are reminded that our health and well-being and the bond with our family and friends are the most valuable things in life. What better way to celebrate these relationships than with meaningful portraits by Mark Creery Photography?

Senior photos you can brag about! That is my goal with each session. My sessions are not traditional and I love when we can explore the outdoors, be it the more urban/edgy vibe of downtown Fort Collins, or the nature vibe along the Poudre River or foothills. I choose locations based on your senior's personalities.

Mark has blown us away with the quality of photos he took at our wedding, and with his ability to capture special moments. When looking through our photos, we truly feel like we are re-living our special day, and we can’t stop smiling. Both of our families have said these are the best wedding photos they have ever seen, and can’t get over what a great job Mark did. Not only is Mark extremely talented, but he is very kind, professional, patient, and everyone enjoyed his company. Top notch photographer and person - you can’t go wrong when hiring him!

Mark was such a pleasure to work with. We started working with him 2 years prior to our wedding for our engagement photos. Our wedding was then postponed a year and Mark still was amazing about accommodating our new date. We are so grateful he was willing to stick it out with us! Our engagement pictures are amazing, he knows great locations! Our wedding pictures have been beautiful, the color and lighting is so artistic! Mark made us feel so comfortable and cared about during this whole process. Would definitely recommend!

Mark did an exceptional job capturing our wedding day. He was on time and very creative with getting scenic pictures. He made sure to capture personal moments and special things incorporated into our day. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a genuinely great photographer.

Simply amazing! Our wedding day was super cold and windy yet Mark made it all worth while. He was very laid back making the experience relaxing and fun. Without seeing the pictures yet, I told my husband he was worth every penny. After receiving the pictures, it solidified how great of a job he did capturing our big day. So happy to have found and worked with you, Mark

Mark took our engagement photos and we were absolutely thrilled with his work. He went above and beyond making sure he captured a variety of scenes. We spent time touring all through downtown Fort Collins and loved every picture. You can tell he is passionate with his craft. I've personally never been involved in any professional shoot, but Mark gave great prompts to bring out our best.

From every detail photo to candid reception shots, Mark Creery hands down beyond exceeded exceptions! With so many wedding photos to choose from it's nearly impossible to select favorites because we genuinely love them all. In addition, Mark is one of the friendliest and artistic photographers we met after vetting many for our special day. Would highly recommend to anyone and can't imagine having our photos taken by anyone else in the future!

We really enjoyed working with Mark, he was a comfortable presence to have around and our photos turned out beautifully. I think he did an excellent job of telling the story of our wedding, and I loved looking through the gallery and getting to re-live that very special day and experience all of the emotions running through our guests as well. We have received SO MANY compliments on our beautiful photographs, and several people have commented that they look like they should be in a magazine. We highly recommend Mark, both for the beautiful photographs and because he is very kind and enjoyable and
