Heather and I joke about making a video of what it’s like to drive through the eyes of a photographer. Every time we travel, whether to the store, to school, or to another city, our eyes scout the horizon daydreaming about what it would be like to shoot in the different locations. Occasionally, we’ll see a location, look at each other and just laugh. It seems we are drawn to tall fields of grass with lots of open sky, barren and decaying buildings such as old barns and brick sheds, greenhouses, rusty old vehicles, and locations that are normally considered eye sores.

So, we came up with a fun idea. Why not offer free portrait sessions to property owners who have something visually interesting to offer us. We are asking anyone who has property (whether it’s land, buildings, livestock, or vehicles) that may be of interest to us to contact us about a possible trade. It’s pretty simple really. We give you a lifestyle portrait session at a local location of your choice. We hook you up with a lots of prints from the shoot. You allow us to use your property for a shoot with one of our clients. If you are interested, please send an email to mark@markeric.net with a picture of your property attached. You’ve got it, flaunt it. Kickstart our Art.

Types of property we are currently looking for:
A) Decaying buildings
B) Open fields with tall grass
C) Locations with “big sky”
D) Interiors that have a unique vibe
E) A cow. Yes- A cow.

F)  Buildings and interiors featuring modern architecture
