Saskatoon Wedding and Elopement Photographer & Videographer | Makoi Belen Photo + Video


 

Meet Mark Belen | Photographer and Founder of Makoi Belen Photo+Video

Hi I’m Makoi, a Wedding and Elopement photographer based in Saskatoon, SK. Born and raised in the Philippines and now residing in Sk Canada! A happily married father of four boys!

I have been capturing Weddings since 2015. I’m a visual storyteller. I set my heart into finding and creating, timeless heirlooms by bringing natural light into play! I want you to be able to look at your wedding photos but rather than seeing it as a photoshoot of a wedding, I want you to feel your wedding. That is authentic and timeless! I occasionally shoot Film, yes old school film! I also shoot different kind of portraits! From maternity, newborn, family, grads, pets, etc you name it!  I travel all over Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Regina, Prince Albert, Waskesiu, Candle lake, Lloydminster and all areas in between!

I am married to my beautiful wife, Gizel. We have four boys, Eli, Malachi and the twins, Lucas and Noah. We love to go out and enjoy the nature all Seasons.

Meet the A-Team

Curtis + Ciara

“We just sat down and put the album up on the TV to look at. As always, we are blown away. You captured everything I wanted and more. Thank you so much. It is so special to be able to look back on our day and feel nothing but happiness and love. We will treasure these photos for the rest of our lives. Thank you for your kind and calm presence during our day, even when I was stressed out. We would recommend you 100 times over and look forward to getting more photos with you in the future. <3 “

Taylor + Andrea

“Makoi was phenomenal. My partner and I both were immediately impressed by how friendly and enthusiastic he was. He had a vision and knew what he was doing and how to capture the best angles and lighting. We have gotten so many compliments on our wedding photos, but also my wedding party and guests commented how great he was at getting shots and being friendly. I have never had my ego boosted as much as when I they were taking our photos! We were so happy with our wedding photos and got tons of great captures to choose from. I highly recommend Makoi for any photo needs, from casual family photos all the way to formal wedding photos. We have absolutely no regrets. “

Duncan + Chelsea

“Makoi was the best photographer we could have asked for! He was professional and also very good at making us feel comfortable around the camera. He is clearly knowledgeable about shooting photos in the wide variety of conditions throughout our wedding day (everything from low light for our indoor reception to bright afternoon sunlight on fresh white snow), since all of our pictures turned out amazing! His attention to detail was one of the reasons we chose him as our photographer, and he did not disappoint. Lots of great photos of the rings, reception decorations, dress details, etc. We can't recommend Makoi enough for weddings, engagement photoshoots, or anything else! “
