Mark Hadden

Photographer with a passion for connecting and engaging with clients. A former architect, thereby blending technical skills and artistic sensitivity. This results in images that can be both visually striking and deeply personal.

Were you troublesome or sweet as a child?

I have experience as both sweet and mildly troublesome child who was empathetic but also liked to be mischievous. Tying dustbin lids to door handles was a favourite of mine.

What drives you?

I love to engage with people on a personal level and bring out their character in my images.

Is this your ideal profession?

Absolutely. I love that I can be flexible with my time and have freedom to travel and connect with the outdoors/nature in my free time. I recharge frequently and this allows me to give 100% of my energy to my clients when they need me.

Are you an idealist or an optimist?

I live in the moment.

What do you add to a team?

I bring out the good out in people.

Why are you a Friend of Stark?

I have been photographing Stark Narrative colleagues for a decade. It’s a pleasure to be part of its collaborative efforts.
