Mark Geistweite lives in Bakersfield, California with his wife, Xiaoping, and 4 year old daughter, Kennis Lina. His photography has evolved over a 25 year span. In the beginning, he used the camera to document his travels, the first of which was a 6 month car camping journey across the western United States. Over time, Mark used photography as more of an artistic expression. The digital age has given Mark a sharper focus on his craft. He now operates a digital darkroom from his home while looking after his daughter. He markets his images to magazines and online purveyors. He also produces and sells fine art prints. Mark attributes his success to Xiaoping and her unwavering support. Mark also gives thanks to Jackie and Jerry Geistweite (Mom and Dad) for providing him with the ability to see the world with patient eyes. His proudest moments come from watching Kennis Lina grow and learn and also seeing his images roll off of his Epson 7800 wide format printer.
