In December I spent 2 days photographing throughout the Phoenix metro area shooting the City Guide feature for Men’s Journal Magazine. The city profile featured a variety of different activities here in the valley including: hiking Camelback mountain, golfing in Fountain Hills and features on a couple different restaurants.

Mark Peterman enjoys photographing ordinary people who do interesting things. 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. Although Mark 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. |
