About Marc-Anthony - The "storie"
Myphotostorie attempts at telling timeless stories by merging tried and true tools and technics with your reality. And your reality is not simply about what it looks like, but what it feels like.
I am a self-taught Haitian photographer/artist with a passion for anything artistic and creative. While pursuing a major in Graphic Design at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, that passion for art history, fine arts, and the captivating realm of film photography took root.
During my travels to China, my interest in portrait photography flourished and became a defining element upon my return home. My style aims at effortlessly blending the textures and lighting techniques reminiscent of early fine arts with modern approaches, weaving narratives that are both compelling and timeless.
There is something powerful about an image that can tell a compelling story. I want to invite you into a world where learned conventions, technics, values, as well as their abandonment are all present at the disposal of telling a story, your story. Over the years and through the people I have met, I have come to deeply love what I do, and I’d like to use that passion to offer you an experience you will always remember. So, welcome. I’d love to hear about you. Get in touch, we aren’t strangers after all.
Fun Facts About Me
DIE HARD FOODIE
My usual weekends involve cooking chef-like dishes, enjoying a good wine while blasting a mix between modern afro beats and Amber Mark Pandora playlist.
FAVORITE TV SHOWS
Game of Thrones, Stranger Things, Masters of Sex, West World, Insecure, Rick and Morty. Look, you’d be here all day. Oh, and Peaky Blinders, and…
CREATIVE THINKER
I enjoy the process of creating and having the ability to produce visual expriences that people remember and value.
ARTIST FIRST, PHOTOGRAPHY SECOND
My current life revolves around developing as a person, as a professional portrait photographer, and keeping my bedroom free from more photography-related stuff.
GROUNDED BUT FUN
Laughing is just about the only exercise I really enjoy doing. I find a good sense of humor atop 5 inch heels to be the ultimate combo.
CULTURE OVER EVERYTHING
My favorite thing to do aside from obviously being a portrait photographer, is to travel and discover cultures first-hand through organic experiences… and food.
RELIABLE & FLEXIBLE
I pride myself on making sure I meet the needs of my clients. I listen to them closely in order to find the best way to fulfill their goals.
A BIT OF A SCIENTIST
I believe in results. For that, I experiment and experience “stuff”. Approaching photography with a different mind often bears the most interesting results.
PROUDLY MADE IN HAITI
Having lived there for the most part of my young days, I had the opportunity to experience a variety of art that til today gives my work a certain flair, a certain edge.
