Biography
Born in Nairobi, Kenya after an apprenticeship in London with some of the leading advertising photographers of the era, Mark moved to Australia in 1985.
Since then his work has taken him all over the world with assignments in places such as India, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Vanuatu, Viet Nam, Laos, Fiji, and Papua New Guinea.
With a career spanning 30 years, Mark’s current clients include Australia’s leading educational institutions, peak tourism bodies, and publishers.
However, it is his work with the not-for-profit sector and non-government organisations that align best with his personal values; He endeavours to tell visual stories with authenticity and truthfulness, traits that are becoming threatened by world of AI and fractured attention spans. As aid and development budgets are shattered, our concern for the most vulnerable, must
go beyond our local communities, and into the global sphere.
Mark Currently lives aboard his S&S Swan 47 based in Valencia and photographs yachts more for pleasure than profit!
