Artist Statement

I was raised in a small town in Georgia's mid state and spent the past decade living in the Metro Atlanta area. While I have always enjoyed taking photos, if you had told me that I would end up so passionate about this art form or so engaged in it, I would not have believed you.  

It was my first exposure to traveling outside of the states that fanned the flames. As I got more feedback from the photos I shared with friends and family, I began to work harder and harder to make my photos truly special.  In a way, I was constantly competing with myself to return with something better.  

I went on to learn the basics of photography in a class room in the evenings. Ultimately, however, it has been and continues to be a process of trying new things to see what works and what doesn't.  I firmly believe that any endeavor in art is ultimately a process of trial and error while seeking your own voice.

For me, there's something truly special about catching a single moment of time with the snap of the shutter. And although travel photos will always have a special place in my heart, I have expanded and work to find moments that people will connect with anywhere I can find them.  It may mean wandering lonesome back roads in search of fading Americana or capturing the beauty of busy city streets, but I love looking for those shots that people will respond to when they see them.  

While I have been described as a jack of all trades, it's ultimately photography that I have most wanted to master and I hope that my viewers will enjoy the lonesome roads, the towering skyscrapers, the thousand year old pyramids and all that comes in between in my growing portfolio		 Mark On The Isle of Skye
