About Mark Aizenberg
Mark Aizenberg is an award-winning photographer based in Wynnewood, PA, serving the Philadelphia area, the Main Line, and the western suburbs. His work has been accepted into numerous juried exhibitions, and he specializes in portraiture, fine art, and product photography. As an FAA Part 107 certified drone photographer and videographer, he also offers aerial perspectives that expand his creative range.
When we look around, our senses are constantly saturated with visual information. As a neuroscientist, Aizenberg is fascinated by how the brain organizes this complex input into unified objects, separating them from their background. This curiosity about perception informs his photography, which focuses on the viewer’s experience and emotional engagement with the image.
Photography has occupied a special place in his heart since childhood, when he first began running around with a small film camera. His photographic experience is shaped by a combination of self-education, workshops, classes, and countless hours spent taking and developing photographs—both digitally and in the traditional darkroom.
As a fine art photographer, Aizenberg’s goal is to capture the essence of the world around him and present it in ways that are both beautiful and thought-provoking. If he were to describe his art in one word, it would be “simplicity.” He believes that basic shapes, lines, curves, and complementary color schemes can have a deep emotional impact, encouraging viewers to take an active role in experiencing the photograph. Whether shooting landscapes, portraits, or still lifes, he approaches each project with curiosity and a desire to see the world in a new and meaningful way.
Through his art, Mark Aizenberg aims to inspire others to view the world with fresh eyes and appreciate the beauty that surrounds us every day. He is an active member of the Main Line Art Center and the Main Line Camera Club, and his works are exhibited regularly both locally and internationally.
AERIAL ARTIST STATEMENT
“Aerial photography allows me to see the world from a vantage point that feels both distant and deeply intimate. From above, landscapes lose their sense of scale and function, transforming into abstract compositions of line, curve, and texture. Roads, rivers, fields, and cities flatten into patterns that echo drawing, printmaking, or even calligraphy marks inscribed on the earth’s surface.”
