Michael has been involved in the photography field since 1983 when he joined the yearbook staff at Waterloo High School in Waterloo Illinois. Since then he has been involved in business advertising photography, model portfolios and private portrait and portfolio work. He has published photos in several national print publications and does all of our photography in the southern California region. He does travel when needed and is available for all genre styles with NO content limitations. His main travels are to St Louis Missouri and surrounding areas as well as the Tampa Florida area. His main shoot style is outdoor location sets and makes it a practice to use locations that provide excellent photo sets, but sometimes take effort to get to. He has been known to walk through chest deep water, make hikes up to 3 miles, climb bluffs, lay down in mud and climb trees to get to a choice location shot.

WHEN SCHEDULING A LOCATION SHOOT, BE PREPARED TO HAVE SEVERAL WARDROBE CHANGES, BE POSED IN A WIDE VARIETY OF POSES AND IN IMAGINATIVE PLACES AND ANGLES, BE IN PLACES WHERE YOU WILL MOST LIKELY GET WET, WINDBLOWN, DIRTY, ETC. THIS PHOTOGRAPHER IS NOT FOR MODELS OR PEOPLE WHO WISH TO HAVE A "GREENSCREEN" PHOTOSHOPPED PORTFOLIO. HIS STAFF IS IMAGINATIVE AND VERY CREATIVE WHEN SHOOTING SO BE PREPARED TO GET AN "OUTSIDE THE BOX" SHOOT SET, AND EXPECT TO HAVE ATISTIC ABILITIES PUSHED TO THEIR LIMITS.
