Bicycling Magazine photographer

Bicycling Magazine cover, June 2010

Who shot that cover for Bicycling Magazine this month? I DID! wellll sorta… I had to post this since it is kind of funny, here is the story….

I was contacted by one of my clients Bicycling Magazine a couple of months ago. They were looking for a photo of bike riders in traffic for an article about safety on the road. I had shot a story for them in 2007 about a weekly bike ride in Tucson, Arizona. Remembering the assignment, they thought I might have something that would work for the story.

I checked my archive and submitted a web gallery of a few shots that I thought might fit. They decided to license one of the photos for the inset to the cover….

So one of my photos is on the cover of Bicycling this month. My photograph was slightly bigger than a postage stamp and the main cover image was shot by Thomas Macdonald. Nice work on the real cover shot!

About

Mark Peterman explores narratives with photographs and multimedia. Although his work
is at home in the post-modern world it is very informed by history. A desire to be creative
on a daily basis fuels his curiosity about the human experience and he documents things in sketchbooks as a way of remembering his life.

Since he was young, he has been recreating the world around him through photographs and is continually refining his artistic vision by drawing on influences from music, literature and art. Mark's work reflects a graphic, story-telling quality with a cinematic feel, drawing on his design background while studying at the Kansas City Art Institute.

Mark enjoys photographing ordinary people who do interesting things. Although he is primarily a still photographer, he has recently started incorporating multi-media and motion into his work. Recent project themes include examining how ones memory is effected with the passage of time, exploring family histories on film and spending time in the meeting spaces of fraternal organizations.
