SOME RAVES FROM OUR CLIENTS
We do our best
Our photography clients are the best in the world. Most of them become our friends. From Lubbock, Texas, and beyond! We run our studio by the Golden Rule and treat our clients like we want to be treated. As a result, we get some nice notes. Thanks!
Mark Umstot has been taking pictures of me and my family since 2004. His business motto is, “Different. Special. Better.” He is all of these things and then some! I can’t freeze time with my loved ones, but Mark allows me to permanently capture some of these memories in a unique and artistic manner. Mark is kind, courteous, timely, and professional. He loves a challenge and quickly makes everyone involved in the shoot feel at ease. Family pictures are an investment and we have wholeheartedly trusted Mark with our most momentous occasions, including our wedding. His pictures are artistic masterpieces and they adorn the walls of our home. If you need to hire a professional photographer for any occasion, Mark will give you a final product unlike any other!

It takes a professional photographer to make an old man look so young. Thanks so much for the Legacy Picture. The one of Annalon and me will be used as we celebrate fifty years together. You are special. My thanks!
Thank you SO much for the group pics, individual pics, and posters. We are really fortunate to have someone like you who is continually going out of his way to make the girls look great. I appreciate all the extra time you put towards our group, even though we don’t bring in all the money that a private customer would. You are a wonderful business man and an even better civil servant. Thanks for making quality photography an affordable option to us. =) **WE LOVE YOU**
Thank you so much for your contribution to Holiday Happening. Because of your generosity, proceeds from Holiday Happening will allow the Junior League of Lubbock to fund hunger programs in our community. We could not do this without your help. Again, thanks and we look forward to seeing you there!
Hey! Been a while since I have spoke to you. Just wanted to say that the pictures you took of me and Brittany are still getting oooos and ahhs even though they were taken over 5 years ago!

We have loved working with you so much! Repeat customers 100%! You make us feel comfortable, you make the kids giggle and feel like big helpers, you have a great style and vision. Plus: you’re an overall good human. Couldn’t appreciate you more!
I have been thinking about your work and the way in which part of your job is to bring out the best in people and show that, and also to give people an image of how they see themselves in connection with each other, and you rang the bell. You really did capture the lively spirit and lovingkindness of my family and I want to thank you again. I know you give families a great gift every time you create these portraits.
It would be impossible for you to have made this picture taking experience any more wonderful!! When people ask us how the wedding went, the response is ALWAYS “perfectly!!” and you are a huge part of that!! Thank you for going above and beyond in every way–engagement, bridals, the actual wedding, and the family Christmas card. We are forever grateful to you!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!
Mark, Thank you for being such an awesome person to my daughter! That is just how you are and I want you to know how much I appreciate your kindness! You make this world a better place. You just have a special way with people. Thank you for making my daughter feel so special! Can’t wait to see the pictures! Hugs!
I first found Mark when he photographed a group of us in nursing school 7 years ago. Over the past 7 years, he has been there to capture our engagement, wedding, sister’s wedding, pregnancy and now our new little boy! We consider him a part of our family now—actually he knows more about us than some of our real family does, haha! We love his photography and the attention that he pays to detail and capturing the moment and true character of the subject he’s photographing. We have had so many compliments on our photos that Mark has done and even 7 years later, it still fun to go back and “awwwwwe” about the memories that he’s captured for us. I can’t wait to see what he has in store for us the next 10-15+ years as our family grows! We are so happy to have Mark as our photographer. We could not have found a more professional, friendly, and caring photographer and person!
Mark is an awesome photographer! He is very personable, professional and efficient. Our company recently had photos taken of a few of our distributors living in Lubbock and after the experience we had with Mark Umstot Photography, we won’t go anywhere else. Each of our distributors left the studio feeling positive about their experience and Mark’s attitude. The customer service is phenomenal, Mark even stayed up until 11:00 PM Friday night uploading photos to the proof’s page so we could have the finished and edited product in our hands Monday morning! Thanks Mark, we appreciate your hard work and integrity.
On behalf of the office, thank you for taking the time and your generosity to get our photos taken. Everyone was very impressed and excited for the opportunity, it was a pleasure doing business with you! Thanks!
Mark, I want to thank you for taking my realtor headshot. It looks great.
Dear Mark, I want to thank you for your generosity in sharing your time and expertise with my lighting class. They loved hearing your story but they were especially interested in seeing your shooting process and post production. You were so transparent for them – that was wonderful.
Mark, Thanks for everything! You are so very talented & make our family feel so special. You always take such good care of us. My boys love being around you and I am always amazed how they turn out so amazing – good use of that word!
Mark, thank you for making me feel so at ease! You’re the best!
Mark, I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to work with me to get everything set up perfectly. Having you there to record everything will help us to remember and enjoy for years to come! I cannot express how grateful I am for that!
Mark, thank you so much for all you do for PSC! We are very thankful and really appreciate you! Thanks for being the “Official PSC Photographer!” 🙂
Mark, how do we even begin this. You are so amazing and so talented. Chris and I are so thankful for all of our beautiful pictures you did for our wedding. The engagement pictures were absolutely amazing and so much fun to shoot. From day one you made us feel so incredibly comfortable and I think it really shows in your work. The bridal pictures are stunning to say the least and Chris really enjoyed looking at them, after the wedding of course, lol. You captured every single shot I could have hoped for at the wedding. I am so pleased and I keep showing them to anyone who will let me. You captured the fun, the sentiment, and the spirit of that day/night so perfectly and I cherish those pictures. I really cannot express how grateful I am that you shot our wedding. We could not be happier and you are definitely going to forever be our go-to photographer for future memorable events. Thanks again!
Thank you for your donation to the Roscoe Wilson Fall Festival. Your donation helped us raise over $10,000 for our students and school. Thank you for being part of this event with us.
Thank you for allowing me to shadow you. I learned so much just spending the day with you. I absolutely love your work. Thank you so much for giving me this fantastic learning experience. I know your time is valuable and it meant a lot that you took the time out of your busy schedule to let me learn more about a career in the photography world. You’re phenomenal!
