About Mark
A native of the San Francisco Bay area, Mark graduated from Stanford University with a degree in Economics and lived in Spain and Brazil before making his move to Los Angeles. His work for advertising, corporate and editorial clients blends fashion, portraiture, reportage and travel. Ongoing projects include two documentary film projects and backstage coverage of the fashion shows in New York, Milan and Paris where he also shoots his fine-art “Backstage” images.

Most of his recent assignments have included photography and video components which he blends seamlessly.

Beyond Photography
As a small company we work hard to minimize our impact on the planet while creating positive change in the world. We believe in a smart way of doing business where our people, community and natural resources are valued. We actively support charitable organizations like the African Millennium Foundation (AMF) which is a non-profit organization that provides the people of Africa, especially women and children, with the tools necessary to rise out of poverty. AMF is dedicated to the social and economic empowerment of local communities and offers microcredit programs as a way to foster self-sufficiency. Funding for grassroots organizations that promote health education, economic development and social change is made possible by generous donations and volunteerism.
We also donate to various organizations including the NRDC, Environment California and Amnesty International.
