About the photographer

My name is Marius Boeriu, but my friends call me MARC. I am a lover of crepes, seafood, soft white wine and taking pictures. I believe that everything that happens has a reason behind, and I love smooth Jazz.

Although I was trained to be an engineer, I have always had an interest in photography.

In my spare time I design websites and repair computers. I love traveling, sleeping in a tent and hiking. I want to learn French... I'll do it some day!

I am based in Chicago - Illinois, but always willing to travel worldwide – especially Nepal.

Premier Photo was born out of strong passion for the "painting with light" art and desire to provide beautiful memories for all, because photography is an art and I approach it as such. Premier Photo is your life.. in focus!

So, click here and there - and get to know me and the world through my lens, and become my friend… especially on Facebook.. Or let’s chat! Coffee, tea, skype, lunch, email or old fashioned phone call... Click HERE!

.. and what customers say about us

For the last two years, we've trusted Premier Photo for our family's Christmas photo. Each year we receive countless complements on our picture. Marc is a pleasure to work with. His comfortable style immediately puts our toddler at ease and enables him to capture some fantastic photojournalism style photos. Marc has a real gift for capturing the essence of a moment. If you're looking for something fresh and real, not staged, I highly recommend Marc at Premier Photo.

Words cannot express how thankful we are to Premier Photo for capturing the most special and unique moments in our life : our Engagement, Wedding, my belly during pregnancy and Christening of our first born baby girl. I highly recommend Premier Photo for any and all of your photography needs. You won't be disappointed! Thank you, Marius, for all beautiful pictures, we will always treasure them...

We are very happy with our photos. This way we could show our far away families and friends our little treasure - a three months old girl. Of course, we think about her.. that she is beautiful, but seeing her in the photos that Premier Photo captured it is amazing! It is like she is alive in it. Premier Photo helped us having the memories of her christening alive, forever, catching every second of it at least once :) They are the best we recommend them with open heart to everybody.

I came to work with PremierPhoto by chance. I later came to realize that it was not chance but fortune. It is difficult to isolate on specific quality that makes them outstanding; I will always be debating between the flowing two.
Precise: Not only were these people precise in keeping their appointments and promises to the letter, but also in their photography. When I glance through the album, it is so complete that I feel the same as I did then, I am reliving those unique moments.
Truly Artistic: Yes, our babies christening was special. But that is what any set of parents out there will say. In our case however, the photo album makes the event look so vivid and lively. The person that is fortunate enough to see it will be convinced that our celebration was directly from a fairy tale.
In addition, I also received little surprise gifts from them. A good example would be a small, purse sized photo booklet for family members.
Thank you Premier Photo
