My name is Mark French, a dedicated photographer originating from the serene landscape of Northeastern North Dakota. Through my lens, I explore the beauty of nature, people, wildlife, and landscapes, seeking to encapsulate their essence in captivating images. Beyond traditional photography, I delve into the realm of digital art, weaving together compositions that reflect my artistic vision and creative spirit.
Epic Road Trip 2024/25
On April 4, 2024, I embarked on a photographic journey throughout the United States. My goal is to document the beauty of each state I visit as I travel in my trusty SUV, which doubles as my living and workspace (think Nomad). Spanning over the course of a year, I aim to explore every state and capture its essence through my lens. My travels will be funded through the sale of my photographic prints online. Featuring a curated selection from my travels, these prints will be available for purchase in the "SHOP" section of this website. Thank you for considering my creative works for your decor/gift needs! I will also be posting updates on my Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube sites…come aboard and enjoy the ride (make sure you follow/subscribe to receive notifications).
Supporting our Youth
A portion of each sale will be allocated to the Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch organization. They are dedicated to supporting and uplifting troubled youth, making a positive impact in their lives.

I was a resident of the Dakota Boys Ranch (now Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch) as a 15 year old teen. The value of my stay there and the resulting life benefits can be read at this link: https://dakotaranch.org/about/ranch-voice/. Article begins on page 30 of the Spring 2024 issue.
