ABOUT

MARK

The Mark Wilson Prints collection is a selection of images from Mark's personal and commercial work of the last 30 years. He is known for his passion for location photography and preference for shooting film, on cameras of any format. His long-term credo to make 'something out of nothing' reflects his desire to create great images from the world around us.

THE COLLECTION

I love photography. It's my passion and the only real job I've ever had so I feel lucky to be doing what I love every day. Many of the Collection images are those I have made for my own enjoyment, which I've shared with friends, clients and anyone else who's been interested, for years. The balance are photographs originally made for clients but which I've always considered worthy of a broader audience. 

FILM

Many of the Collection images have been made with film cameras and I have included the details of the camera and film types for interest. Film emulsions all have different reproduction qualities and film grain becomes more apparent the larger an image is reproduced. This is the nature of all film and is part of what gives those images their appeal. Although many of the images originated on film, those negatives and transparencies have all been scanned at extremely high resolution to produce the prints here. This digitisation  provides for the best of both technologies - perfect reproduction of the original film image, and maximum control over the quality of the print on the finest rag paper available.
