Mark completed a Graphics and Design degree in 1996 at Auckland University of Technology, specialising in photography. After graduating, he was introduced to a high profile US photographer which led to a rigorous 6 month internship in New York City. This valuable experience gave him the opportunity to work with more of the world’s best advertising photographers in the UK over the following 5 years. Now based in London, he works regularly for editorial, design and advertising clients around the world.

Mark's work has a very unique style. With his design background and sensibility, he strives for his photographs to be graphic in nature and finely balanced in composition and tone. His photography likes to question scale and realism, often playing with notions of abstraction.

Marks photographs have won awards from The Royal Photographic Society and the AOP in London, as well as featuring regularly in the Communication Arts Photo Annuals. In 2007, Mark was one of 4 short-listed for the AOP Bursary Award. Some of his clients include Sony Ericsson, Shangri La Hotels, Surf UK, Warburtons Bread UK, BBH London, Dixon Baxi London, London 2012 Olympics, Ogilvy Hong Kong, Appserv New Zealand, Cumberland USA and See Magazine USA.
