Profile Photo of Mark Roche with a camera to introduce himself on the about page at Mark Roche Photography.

I’m a London-based photographer specialising in creating fine art images of landscapes, cityscapes and aerial photography.

Through my work at Mark Roche Photography, I capture moments of light, atmosphere and perspective that reveal the character and beauty of the locations I photograph.

My journey into photography began in 2019 when I initially focused on street photography during photo walks where I met like-minded people. Photography became a way of connecting with the outside world and a form of therapy and self-care that helped me work through mental health struggles I was experiencing at the time.

Despite being blind in my left eye, I discovered that my good eye had an ability to capture moments that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Having spent the majority of my life in London, I have been fortunate to photograph many elements of this incredible city.

My cityscape photography explores the urban environment from different vantage points during both day and night, capturing the changing light and atmosphere of London’s skyline, bridges and architecture.

I enjoy creating compelling images of light, shapes, textures and emotion that reveal what makes a city truly beautiful.

Alongside my city photography, I have developed a passion for capturing the beauty of nature and the outdoors through landscape photography. These images aim to draw viewers into the scenery and atmosphere of each location, many of which are steeped in history and natural beauty.

A turning point in my photography journey came at the beginning of 2023 when my image of Dovercourt Lighthouse was shortlisted in the History Hit Photographer of the Year competition. I was also incredibly proud to have the image published in Digital Camera Magazine in March 2023.

I am passionate about continuing my personal and professional development, which led me to successfully achieve my A2 Certificate of Competence drone pilot licence. This enables me to capture unique aerial perspectives of landscapes and urban environments.

Many of my photographs are available as fine art prints for collectors, homes and interior spaces. Through Mark Roche Photography, I aim to share the atmosphere, beauty and character of the places I photograph.

I look forward to connecting and sharing the world through my lens.
