Harrison Marks

Harrison Marks first got involved in glamour photography in 1953 after he met, and started a relationship with Pamela Green, a photographic model. Together they were to transform the British glamour scene and gain world-wide recognition. They started out by producing postcard-sized black and white glamour photographs in sets of five packed in cellophane bags, which they sold through book shops and newsagents in the Soho area of London where they had established their home and studio together. These tastefully posed pin-ups quickly became popular and the business expanded rapidly.

In 1957, they launched 'Kamera', their first printed publication. The 7 x 5 inch, 36 page, monthly pocketbook of nudes was an instant success. They followed Kamera with an array of similar publications. Their success grew, and at the end of the fifties they ventured into home movie production. Pamela Green and George Harrison Marks split in 1967 and Kamera Publications Ltd. ceased in 1968.
