SWPP Convention.
January 10th - 16th January 2012.

Marko was asked to lecture at the recent SWPP Convention held at the Novotel Convention Centre in Hammersmith,London.
This was the fourth year Marko has lectured here and this year he had both a Superclass on lighting for Fashion, Portraits and Weddings and a Masterclass on Fashion photography.
It was a hugely enjoyable experience and as well as the lecturing it was great to catch up with so many friends and delegates from my previous courses.
Next year's SWPP Convention dates will be 8th to 14th January and it will be at a new venue,

Hilton London Metropole Hotel, Edgware Road.

It is an absolute must for photographers to attend this. As well as the Trade shows, there are a huge variety of top class speakers covering subjects fro Marketing through to Boudoir photography.
It's also a great opportunity to catch up with friends and to keep up with the latest developments in the photographic industry.

Selvedge Magazine - January 2012
Selvedge Magazine has also started 2012 with a six page article about one of Marko's projects called "Portrait of Genius"
The original commission was awarded by the Whitewall Gallery in Milton Keynes and the images have been reviewed in the Guardian Newspaper.
It is a series of photographs of Classical super-model Daphne Selfe and each was loosely based around an Old Master painting. Titian, Rembrandt,Durer,Le Brun and Van Dyck were five of the eight artists re-interpreted photographically.
The images are accompanied by a text written by Nicola Donovan who is currently the recipient of a Phd bursary at Nottingham Trent University.
Selvedge is an international textile,fashion and crafts magazine and it is the third time that they have featured Marko's work in the last year.
The Magazine is available nationally and internationally and can be found in bookshops such as The National Gallery,The Tate and The Fashion Museum in Bath.
The Article was pre-featured in the December edition of Selvedge Magazine...

For a sneak preview of the article please see below.

SWPP Convention-2012.

Marko will also be attending this year's SWPP Convention at The Hammersmith International Centre,(Novotel West).

This is the fourth year that Marko has lectured at this prestigious convention and this year he will be delivering a lecture on fashion photography and a Superclass hands-on seminar on lighting for portraits,weddings and fashion.
The SWPP Convention is a fabulous opportunity for photographers to meet, keep abreast of all the latest developments in the industry and refine their business and photographic skills.

I'm particularly looking forward to meeting up with the delegates from Cyprus, Greece and Malta that I met with whilst delivering seminars for the SWPP in those countries in 2011.
