ABOUT ME
Photography has always been my passion, my dad bought me my first camera when I was 6 years old and
I was allowed to shoot one roll almost every week. We would drop it off for processing then
pick up the new prints every Sunday. I got my first dark room for my 11th birthday and set it
up in a small closet in the back of our garage. After that I joined the photography club in high
school and then went on to study photography in college (see profile below).
PROFILE I'm
a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, holding a degree in
fine arts. I have taken just about every art and photography course
offered at UT. The art of photography, darkroom and printmaking,
conceptual, black and white and color photography, comercial and studio
photography, the history of photography and many more. I also recieved
the Ford Foundation Grant for drawing and painting, that's how I got started in the first place.
Now I specialize in
fashion, fine art, digital photography, digital retouching, graphic
design and commercial photography. As sole proprietor of Mark
Guerra Photography and Dream Net Productions in Austin Texas
and New York City (1991-1995), I have managed the day-to-day operations
and creative services, of
this top-rated photography studio. I have also offered a highly
successful
apprenticeship program allowing college students to receive academic
credit for work performed while assisting me. Drawing from years of
experience, I will provide artistic, unique and personal photography to all
my clients. Accuracy, precision and creative experimentation combine to
give my work it's signature quality.
