About
Marcus Møller Bitsch, 27, is an autodidact Danish photographer from Aarhus – Denmark. He grew up spending most of his time in water, doing watersports, and exploring different creative mediums. After a knee injury, he was forced to take a break from freediving, took up photography and started “The 365 days project”, as a way of practicing the newly discovered passion. After finishing high school, he moved from Denmark to the other side of the world to start the next big photo-project. For nearly a year he visited and lived in Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Myanmar and Japan. After his travels he moved to Paris to work commercially.
Currently based in Paris – France
All art direction, set-design, animation and retouching is done by Marcus - if nothing else is listed.
