I am a amateur photographer who as a keen interest in portraiture. Ever since my first capture of expression I have been fascinated how the camera encapsulates the emotions of people. I have worked with various friends and family in order to perfect my techniques using a combination of natural light and lighting setups in both studios and on location creating thought provoking images.

In the past year I have completed a basic studio lighting course which has given me an insight to the endless possibilities that when using light correctly the drama in the image can ignite the imagination of the person viewing the picture from high light glamour to low light seduction and intrigue. I have recently purchased a significant amount of studio equipment and am currently looking at acquiring my own studio in the very near future which will allow for a more permanent base from where to build on my photography ambition. I feel in order for my further development in photography I need to connect with like minded people both other photographers and models who are creative in their approach hence my reasons for applying to join Purpleport. My personal goals in photography are to create images that the subjects are proud to be apart of and allowing them to portrait to the world how they want to be perceived while capturing the essence of their personality through the eyes. I have stated the reasons that I have for wanting to pursue my photography to an higher level which I have no doubt will increase the more I learn about this great art. I look forward to your response in the near future.

Kind regards Mark.
