Hi, I’m Mark Ward, the photographer behind Takin It Light Photography. I specialize in natural light photography and focus on making you feel comfortable in front of the camera, so your photos come out genuine, not forced. Whether you’re graduating, celebrating a milestone, or just want updated photos, I make the process simple and relaxed.

We are a proud family-owned and veteran-operated business with over 21 years of experience capturing life’s most meaningful moments. Our journey began with a deep passion for nature, landscape, and sports photography as we traveled the world, documenting its beauty and energy.

Over the years, our focus naturally evolved into portrait and event photography — and we couldn’t be happier. Today, we specialize in creating timeless portraits and covering special events, offering each client a comfortable, personalized, and enjoyable experience.

We’d love to hear from you! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule your session.
