Biography

Mark is a native of rural Middle Georgia, currently living in the Metro Atlanta area. His experience with photography is life long, but the passion to go further developed relatively recently, on the heels of his first international travel in 2004. He learned the basics in a classroom, but the rest has been picked up as a result of continual practice, accompanied by observation and discussion with other artists.


For Mark there is something magical about capturing a single moment and preserving it for others to see and appreciate. When someone has a reaction to his work, that moment of connection makes it worthwhile. Described variously as a "jack of all trades" - photography is the only thing he's had a desire to master. Mark desires to go deeper than simple images. The object of his work is to capture the emotion of a moment in a photographic medium.


While his principle interest is travel photography, he has recently exercised his creative needs on sites more accessible on a daily basis. Of special interest has been examples of fading Americana, industrial scenes, rural images, and natural landscapes.
