What makes a Portrait a Portrait?

Friday, September 21 | 7:30PM – 9PM
Location: Leica Pavilion

Dive deep into the art of portraiture with Mark Mann to find the balance between self-expression as the photographer and authenticity in the sitter during this hands-on portrait shoot at the Leica Pavilion, in partnership with Loculars.

Mark Mann is a celebrity and advertising photographer. He was born in Glasgow, where he lived until he went to study at the prestigious photographic program at Manchester Polytechnic. Before long, the recent graduate was assisting innovative fashion photographers, Nick Knight and Miles Aldridge, learning the ropes and building his own body of work. Three years later, Mark started shooting on his own, relocating to New York City.
