Today On Mars we explore the mind of Christian Marcum, a marketing director, business owner and professional film photographer based in Arizona. We talk about working on a farm as a kid, finding a love for art, moving from the city to the country and back, going to NAU and starting Film is Dead, balancing work and personal life, shooting photos using only a Leica M6, and a lot more.
