ABOUT

The Teen Photo Workshops were created by Mark Ostow over 20 years ago with the goal of sharing his unique energy and vision. By day, he is a portrait photographer who shoots for national publications and advertising campaigns. By night (or, really anytime) he is owner of two cafes - Cafe Zing at Porter Square, Cambridge, and Kickstand Cafe in Arlington. Check out Mark’s Instagram!
