From teaching himself the art of photography, Marcus' work has been acquired by the Singapore Art Museum and other valuable private collections around the world. His work has been exhibited in Singapore, New Zealand, Sydney and Melbourne and has been published in international magazines in Germany, Hong Kong, London, Japan, Singapore, Sydney and Melbourne.
After obtaining a Bachelor of Science in Estate Management from the National University of Singapore and working for 5 years in real estate, Marcus was able to realise his dream of embarking full-time on his love of photography. He has specialised since in photographing people, and after being a successful wedding photographer, moved to stock imagery. His work appears in publications and advertisements around the world through international stock agencies.
Marcus endeavours to reveal the grace and beauty of the human form without resorting to saccharine images on the one hand, or overly explicit poses on the other. He has striven to show that beauty can be revealed - and even enhanced - using creativity and subtle techniques.
He travels between Sydney and Singapore.
