Mark Marchesi was born in 1977 in a suburb of NYC. As a child he enjoyed swimming, fishing in the Long Island Sound, and playing Nintendo. In 1995 Mark moved north to attend Maine College of Art in Portland and earned a BFA in photography four years later.

After college he worked for short periods as a waterfront laborer, a sternman on a lobster boat, a stone mason and a digital photographic printer, and lived for short periods in NYC, San Diego, Arizona and Oregon. Mark's images have been exhibited in group shows throughout the US and Europe, most notably Unframed First Look at Sean Kelly Gallery and Hey, Hot Shot Winners Showcase at Jen Bekman Gallery. He had his first solo exhibition in 2008 at Nelson Hancock Gallery in Brooklyn.

In 2005, expecting to become a father, Mark moved back to Maine to establish roots. Currently he resides in the historic harbor town of South Portland with his wife Michelle and daughters Isabella and Penelope.
