Interview: Photographer Mark Drew

Mark Drew is a self taught fashion and portrait photographer. Born in Los Angeles, raised in New Jersey, his love for imagery emerged at a young age, dressing his younger brothers and taking pictures of them.  After various ups and downs in his life, his passion for photography has remained, giving him perspective and a place to focus his creativity.  With a vast portfolio of both male and female subjects, Mark has persistently lived and worked to his own mantra: “Our life’s journey includes thoughts of constant curiosity, fashion photography allows me to to surprise the subconscious and keep the curiosity alive.”  Tell us about yourself, where did all of this begin for you?      Mark Drew: I was born in LA, my mum needed the assistants of family to help raise a knucklehead like me, so she moved to New Jersey to be closer to family.      Photography was a passing thought for me as a child…Initially I wanted to be a Fine Art Painter or Fashion Illustrator.      After schooling my plan was to move back to LA, become a gigolo, save money and start my own art gallery!   Read more: Interview w/ Factory311 Photographer Mark Drew - Fashion and Fine Art
