Mike comes from a family of twelve kids, so he’s had a lifetime of practice behind the camera as the de facto family documentarian. It’s the old story. Missing from the photo because he’s usually the one taking it. Mike has helped people document all kinds of special events. Weddings, babies, big games, family milestones, you name it. In fact, he couldn’t help himself and even picked up a camera at his own wedding.
Mike is a film school graduate, where he internalized all the principles of photography and cinematography, then promptly detoured into a 25-year advertising career. He has now course-corrected and returned to the field that brings him the most joy.
BTW, if you find it weird that he talks about himself in the third person, blame it on the ad industry. That’s just a thing they do.
