I think this black and white portrait of @markxhogben shot right after his haircut really shows how great of a photographer @jelleinmyear a.k.a. The Priest really is…

Pushing a button is one thing, capturing the unbendable strength of vulnerability is a whole different ball game, I feel like Mark stares right into my soul!!

I salute you both.

Don’t be shy, give Jelle a follow…

I have to be completely honest with you guys, when @markxhogben tagged me in a reel that he wanted a haircut by me I have to admit I was apparently the only one on the planet that did not know about this fine gentleman and his inspiring life story…

But then something incredible happened…

I was starting to get HUNDREDS of DM’s from all around the world if I could please, PLEASE give Mark a haircut (to which I already said yes btw) including people close to me that I have in the highest regard so I was more than intrigued… Who is this man..? What is it about Mark that makes him SO DEEPLY LOVED by so many…

I did a bit of digging, watched some of his videos about his crazy story living off the grid on a Canadian island for a decade while living with ánd battling Parkinson disease and
I got it… COMPLETELY… ♥️♥️♥️

(Those that know, know… Those that don’t will…)

I’m also not afraid to admit I’m as spoiled of a city boy as they come, I wouldn’t survive for two hours off any kind of grid, let alone in a Canadian winter, but I do know a bit about cutting hair…

I actually gave Mark’s haircut a lot of thought, I wanted it to fit his personality, move freely, have a lot of natural texture, look slightly wild but with a bit of a rugged, distinguished movie star seasoning, perfect in it’s imperfection…

Ánd of course PD, ice, wind and brown bear resistent… 😏

Well, I let you decide if I lived up to that, what matters most is that I got to meet this Iron Man and made a new friend…

For those that haven’t… YES!!! He is exactly what and who you think he is and more.. ♥️♥️

A very reMarkable encounter I will cherish, thank you so much for visiting @schorembarbier

I was very happy to work on this t-shirt design for @markxhogben in Canada 🇨🇦

This is him in his outdoor bathtub (followers know it well!) with his dog Duke.

I’d made a little zine of him and his off-grid life with Duke for fun so when he asked me to design a t-shirt I was more than happy to.

You can find the t-shirt (swipe to see👕) in the link in Mark’s bio and discover his off-grid life in Quebec.

The event takes place in the scenic setting of Clontarf Promenade and Bull Island, with views of Howth Head and Dublin Bay. The race is contained within an off road promenade and Bull Island giving it unique and relaxing appeal.
