Background
Getting his start as an assistant to Shepard Fairey, the young photographer quickly became immersed in the creative worlds of haute couture and club kids. For over a decade, some say the "Cobrasnake" has become the definitive photographer of global hipster culture, shooting everything from Indie Rock bands playing basement parties to DJ's spinning the latest remixes in exclusive clubs. His website gets over 500,000 unique hits a month. [13]
In the past year alone Mark has traveled to over 75 cities in 15 countries shooting parties and events, constantly searching for the latest trends and hottest fashions.
Mark and his team have brought this unique eye and ultra-contemporary style not only to his own "The Cobra Shop" e-commerce site but also to successful campaigns for Sony PlayStation, T-Mobile, Lacoste LIVE!, Secret, Yahoo!, Virgin Mobile USA, Harrah's, BlackBerry, Nike, and many others. [9] [13]
