Taschen "Ultimate Collector Motorcycles" Coffee Table Book

I am genuinely thrilled to finally lay my eyes on the printed edition of Taschen's "Ultimate Collector" motorcycles. It fills me with great pride to have contributed to this remarkable project, capturing the essence of 23 out of over 100 exceptionally rare collector motorcycles amidst the challenges posed by the pandemic. Witnessing everything come together is truly gratifying.

Throughout the past couple of years, I have been fortunate enough to photograph a diverse range of subjects, including magazine content, campaigns, corporate events, and personal builds. However, I must emphasize that this project undoubtedly stands out as the pinnacle of my experiences. It represents the epitome of my craft and serves as the perfect culmination of my journey thus far.

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to each and every person involved in making this project a resounding success. Your unwavering dedication and collaborative spirit have been invaluable. Together, we have created something truly exceptional that will captivate and inspire motorcycle enthusiasts for years to come. I want to express a huge thanks to everyone involved in bringing this to life.

my Personal favorites of 2016.

2016 has been a crazy year with many up and downs and also a lot of photographic challenges. I was going to do this earlier but I have finally gotten around to pick a few of my favorite shots of this year. It was a tough choice tough and there are probably a bunch missing. I would like to thank everybody involved, I love you all. Marc

Hombrese Bikes

Some of you may remember Hombrese bike's fantastic build based on the Kawasaki W650 that was released this year at the Wheels and Waves festival in Biarritz.  I caught up with him and we talked about bikes and future projects.

Uwe has been a close friend of mine for quite a long time and we originally met surfing in the Basque country. We were both into motorcycles, but he took the whole thing a little further by starting to build his custom bikes.  

From the early age of 14, Uwe has always enjoyed working on bikes. Starting with little 50cc bikes he also spent a lot of cash on Tickets because most of his custom modifications were not legal by German law. Moving on through life he founded Hombrese in 2012 after seeing and getting inspired by a cafe racer. He finished various builds and tries to stick out of the mass of bikes that are often held in black or silver by introducing fresh colors.

One of the highlights of his current build is the custom welded exhaust in which Hombrese pushes the boundaries of what is possible on the W650.  Although Uwe has many projects he is still open to inquiries for custom builds.

LOOKING BACK – THE BEST OF 2015

2015 has been a crazy journey in terms of photography. I got to meet wonderful people, travel through Europe, and pick up some great challenges on the way.  2016 is going to be a big year for me and I am really looking forward to shooting more of everything may that be bikes, weddings, or portraits. I love it all.
