Mr Mark

[andytaylor]

For those of you who remember Mark, I have sad news.

Mark died on the 29th February and it appears that he took his own life.

I am sorry to have to tell you. I only found out today. He will be missed.

Thank you for messaging me Andy.

I'm so sad to hear this. What a great guy. He will be so missed.

Will never forget the shoot in Cardiff Bay where he gave me the Torchwood tour.

RIP Mark xxxx

That is sad news.
To think that we have lost two people known to this forum in the last couple of days.

RIP

Thanks for posting that, Harmony. It was a great day even though we couldn't actually get in to Torchwood HQ.

Mark and I started around the same time in 2006 filming solo girls for our respective websites.

We met through another forum which we both contributed to and soon became friends.

I was focussing on HD content and Mark on nitty gritty reality porn. Mark hated staged porn. He loved real experiences in porn coming across on camera. That's probably why we got on well as we won't directly competing with each other.

Mark discovered several models who I believe are still in the business, one being Talula Teese.

Mark had a wicked sense of humour. One of my fondest memories was when I was coerced into a bondage video with the wickedly funny and rememberal Crystel Lei. I was caned til my butt was red raw. I told Mark about it and he posted a pic of my whipped arse on the arty photographers forum that we had met on. He listed the posting as something like an arty photo. It made us both laugh loads when so many people got pissed off expecting some nice photo of a naked lady only to be shocked by my red raw butt.

Mark and I often chatted. He wanted to set the world on fire with red hot raw porn but started to get disillusioned by the porn industry. Mark did however have a particularly soft spot for Katie Lee. He told me how he did a shoot with Katie and after the shoot went drinking with Katie. The next thing he remembers is waking up pissed in the street with his glasses broken and his phone lost. I may have got some of these details wrong and maybe Katie would be as kind as to correct me on the fine details.

In all of the two years that we really chatted we only ever met up once when Mark came over to my flat where a model was staying. She only worked upto artistic nude. I remember we went out to shoot her in the woods and as I was filming her for an artistic video Mark lay on the ground photographing her nether regions. She asked if he was focussing on her face and he told her he was with a cheeky grin. Made me laugh that Mark got away with that.

Mark left the industry a while after leaving his much loved spuffco.com to Andy. For quite a few months I could not understand how his website that had not been updated that often was doing better than mine. It seems to have been down to Mark's ability to promote the site through social networking which still was in its infantcy.

Mark was a lovely guy, we lost contact around 2009. It's a shame.

He was a really funny guy and I realise now that I will miss him.

Rest in peace mate. You did make a difference to so many people's lifes, mine included.

Sad News... Didn't know the guy, but always a shame to hear someone as left us...

Not sure the story about him taking pics of a girls nether regions without her knowledge however is a great thing to put... sigh

The girl pretended not to know. She was standing over him with her legs open. They stayed great friends for a very long time after. It was just comical seeing the two of them act. Her very obviously loving the attention. Mark never published those photos and they never got distributed on the web.

Yes he was a great guy.
