Arty-Fact: When asked about his favourite person to photograph and why, Markus replied:

"I am lucky because I shoot so many interesting people. Always the last one I shoot is my favorite, because of the adrenaline rush. The list is wondrous. I have top favorites, of course – Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Mary J. Blige, Christina Aguilera, Kim Kardashian, Kanye, Jay Z and The Black Eyed Peas. They are all among my very favorites. It’s not just because they were shot in the 2000s, it’s because I really love them and had a wonderful time working with them."
