Mike the Photographer

I inherited the love of photography from my dad. During family vacations, my dad would pause our hikes to stop at every flower patch or large rock for family photos. I still remember watching him rewind film, putting new film in, and making room for him to stand as he attempted to outrace the camera timer.

As I grew older, the church youth group forced me to be the historian because my dad had a digital SLR camera (it was rare back then). I spent a few years just snapping away aimlessly, not knowing that this would soon become my love.

In my college years, I needed a hobby. It was easy to pick up photography because my dad already had a Canon camera and a nifty-fifty. It also helped that the girl that I had a crush on, who eventually became my wife, was into photography too. So, I never loved photography but I continued to pursue it because I tried to impress a girl.

10 plus years later and I find myself love the art and doing photography part-time. I’ve experimented with the art, tried to emulate many styles, and have settled upon what makes me most happy: documentary & lifestyle.
