For over 10 years, I photographed weddings, portraits, and commercial events for a living. This work brought me to over thirty States, as well as many countries. It was something I did and enjoyed, but always in service to my real ambition, which from childhood has been to teach and preach the Christian faith.

In 2013, I shot my last wedding and said goodbye to Michael-the-photographer. This page is something of a memorial to my former vocation. But I will always have deep gratitude for the people and experiences which professional photography afforded.

Client Testimonials

We can think of no one we’d rather have do our photography.
— Joshua & Kristin. Spokane, WA
Have we mentioned that we love the pictures?!? I like them more every time I see them, and all the people I work with have been very impressed with your work. Thanks so much!
— Nic & Laura. Lake Tahoe, CA
I couldn’t be more thrilled with how the photos came out. We could not have asked for a better photographer for our engagement and wedding pictures; Mike made us feel very comfortable in front of the lens and was completely professional throughout the shoots. During the wedding we did not even notice his presence yet he managed to capture the ceremony in such a way that people who weren’t at the wedding feel like they were there while looking through the photographs.
— Clay & Jannelle. Dundalk, Ireland
Yay! There will definitely be rejoicing! We’re thrilled that you photographed the wedding and can’t thank you enough. You and your assistant are lovely people.
— Wes & Abby. Appleton, WI
I’ll start by again saying thank you for shooting our wedding. Despite our planning and last minute dramas, you were able to keep calm, find the shots, and make everyone around you really enjoy your presence—that’s a rare combination. We have no doubt that you are going to go far in life and we’re glad that we were able to meet you. Thank you!
— Jeff. Seattle, WA
We LOVE the photos! I have definitely been singing your praises. In addition to your amazing photography skills, I really appreciate your low-key vibe and the way you put people to ease. It really helps us to relax and allow you to capture our true selves. We hope to keep in touch and look forward to more of your fabulous photo sessions! Thank you so much for doing such a great job, and for making it fun and painless for us. You are the best!! Thanks, again!
