Our Summer Intern – Mark Elzey Jr. – The One and Only!

As a photographer, I look for inspiration in many places.  Fashion magazines (there goes my manhood), art galleries and other photographers’ websites are some of the most common places I find inspiration for my work.  And I tend to draw different elements from each.  Fashion magazines are great for posing and also provide great examples of things you will not see me wearing.  The stuff I buy at the Banana Republic outlet is very rarely in GQ.

Among all the images I’ve seen, there was one photographer whose poses inspired me every time I looked at them.  The photographer is a “kid” from my church and is now a college student studying photography.  His name is Mark Elzey.  He goes by CMYKcolours.

Mark has the ability to pose his clients/models in a way that maximizes their personalities.  He finds the most creative ways to tell each individual’s story and draw the viewer in.  Every time.   His imagination never stops.  I think if he had the option to literally eat and breath photography, he would.  That’s how passionate he is.  I love it.

I’m proud to have Mark interning with us here at Black Thumb Studio this summer.  Keep an eye out – you may meet him at a wedding!

Here’s a sampling of his amazing work!!
