"'You should take my picture some time,'" photographer Mark DePaola recounts a model saying to him in the story of how he really got into photography. "We made a plan for her to come over to shoot and eventually photographed.

As I was shooting I realized that photography was an extremely powerful medium. " Mark and his story is the idol of many a photographer. He's a purist that refuses to do any retouching or post-production. He shoots editorials for Gucci, McQueen, Miyake, VOGUE, and others. He's also got a brand new 402-page monograph out called Five Years and Sixty Seconds. But more than anything, Mark focuses on creating. We talked with him about his philosophy on shooting, why he doesn't shoot with a flash, and his methods of shooting. . thephoblographer.com
