Mark Edward Harris' love for photography came out of an interest in documenting family trips with both still and movie cameras. He "discovered" photography as a possible profession while at California State University, Northridge, where he spent many hours in a traditional darkroom.

At 14, Michael Semaan found a way to forge a unique relationship with his grandfather – photography. With a camera on loan from his high school, his grandfather's experience in photography and chemistry, and a full dark room in the basement, Semaan found a passion that would last all his life.
