About Us

I'm Peter Marcus, Owner of Marcus Photography.

I am a very lucky person.  

Through 35 years of serving wonderful business clients and private families with photography, I have had the pleasure to meet and work with the most intelligent, creative, generous, engaging, socially aware personalities one could hope to ever encounter here in the Bay Area.

I am grateful my photography has benefited businesses in their marketing, helped non-profit social organizations communicate the good they do to the public, contributed in a small way to middle-school science education by working on the Darwin educational DVD project in the Galapagos, and has created hundreds of family heirlooms and treasured memories with my albums, books and prints.

I'm proud to know my images are in several museum's historical collections and numerous corporate archives. 

I teach the occasional photo workshop in the Bay Area.

I live in Oakland, California...
