Marcus Cooper
Born and raised in East Greenwich Rhode Island, Marcus started taking photos during a Euro trip abroad in college when he was 22. When he moved to NY for a marketing job after college. he began working with a stylist friend and experimenting and it was sort of a snowball effect – the ideas and inspirations were non stop. Things started picking up and he couldn’t stop shooting. He started off with a low quality camera so he was forced to focus on imperfections – he tries to keep his work raw and real to this day even though he works with much better equipment and teams now. His favorite projects that he has worked on are those that are organic and not planned, where there are no expectations and the talent is on the same energy wavelength.
