As you enjoy Michael’s work, you will quickly see his commitment to quality and his artistic sense of portraying people at their best. Even casual observers pause to comment...

“...stunningly beautiful.” “...angelic...” “...these pieces look like paintings. Beautiful!”

It is Michael’s passion to celebrate and portray the uniqueness of every person that he photographs; to reveal the heart and soul of a child or the love and relationship of a family in a way that no one else can; and to preserve the memories of your family for generations to come.

He believes in the power of a portrait to change the way you feel about yourself, and to bring a sense of belonging and self worth to children, who will see their family proudly displayed on the wall at home. Michael believes that beautiful portraits should hang in your home as art, to constantly remind you that your and your family are so important.

Please join us and experience the world’s most stunning portraits.

Where to start…? It was such a pleasure and a delight to work with Mike!

Within the first few minutes of our portrait session, it was clear that Mike is “The Child Whisperer.” I was in awe, observing how he interacted with our young children, whom he had just met, coaxing their true personalities to emerge, and then capturing them with understanding and grace.

Mike’s attention to detail is impeccable, and his level of customer service is truly exceptional.

Mike takes tremendous pride in his work, and it shines throughout the whole process.

Our portraits are stunning!

“The portraits captured the essence of my grandchildren’s personalities, while putting them at ease and making the session fun! Michael provided excellent input on framing and selecting the perfect location to display the portrait. Thank you for a wonderful experience!” - Carey Bloomfield

Michael is professional, talented and the absolute best at what he does. Not only is his work first class, he is a truly wonderful person. I look at my children’s portraits every day and feel like I am looking at them face to face.

One day they’ll be all grown up, but Michael captured a moment that I’ll cherish for the rest of my life.
