About Marven

Not your typical photographer, I started my career in front the camera as a dancer and model before realising I would rather be the person creating those amazing images. I spent over 20 years working in entertainment and fashion before finally being bit by the photography bug. It was my interest in beautiful light and the desire to shape it, manipulate it and control it that first drew me to this wonderful art form. Now only 8 years into this craft I am still learning, still growing and I feel honoured and humbled by the opportunities that I have had to shoot some truly amazing people. I was born to be an artist and see the world for the beauty that exists EVERYWHERE! It is my desire to capture as much of it as I can with my lens.

I am a Profoto Instructor; Fashion, Beauty, Editorial and Portrait Photographer based in Japan.
