PHOTOGRAPHS OF HUMANS AND ONE DOG by MARK OSTOW
What makes you tick? Give Mark Ostow his camera and some film and he will find out. He has an uncanny ability to infect those around him…. with energy, passion, and fun. His portraits are subversive, disarming and offbeat. Nothing Mark Ostow does is ordinary. In fact, nothing could be more disturbing to him than predictability and cliche. He explodes into a photo session and leaves walking backwards, still shooting, having captured someone’s history, mood, expression. His goal: To make the subject surrender to him without ever noticing.
Mark is a commercial photographer who specializes in black white unique editorial portraits.
