A man of many talents.

(Well… at least two.)

Regarded by himself as the most fascinating man in Caldwell, Idaho. Michael enjoys writing about himself in the third person. He frequently uses words like ‘zeitgeist’ to prove he went to art school. He is an accomplished portrait photographer and chef whose work in both fields have been enjoyed in North America, Australia, and Europe, and the Middle East.

Portraits should look like you—not a version of you buried under heavy editing or awkward poses.

Whether it's an individual portrait, family gathering, senior photos, or a cherished pet, I focus on creating relaxed, genuine images that capture personality instead of perfection. My goal is simple: timeless photographs you'll still be proud to display years from now.
