Hi, I’m Michael. I’m a photographer with a deep love for capturing life’s most meaningful and intimate moments. My journey into photography is a personal one, born out of a life-changing experience. Just over two years ago, I had a serious heart attack that completely shifted my perspective on life. I’d been working as a painter and decorator, but I wasn’t truly happy. The health scare made me realize I wasn’t living the life I wanted. I knew I had to make a change, and that’s when I decided to pursue my passion for photography.
I’ve always been drawn to the way a single photograph can tell an entire story—whether it’s a candid moment, a stunning landscape, or, most profoundly, the love and joy shared at weddings. I’ve been specializing in wedding photography for the past two years, and it’s been one of the most rewarding parts of my work. There’s something incredibly powerful about being entrusted with capturing the beginning of a couple’s journey together. Each wedding I shoot is unique, and I love how my images preserve the emotions, the laughter, and the unforgettable moments of such an important day.
When I’m not behind the camera, you can usually find me cheering for my football team, following them to games both home and away. I’m a huge fan, and it’s one of the things that helps keep me grounded. At home, I live with my amazing wife, who has been my biggest supporter, and our little dog, Doug, who brings endless joy to our lives.
Photography has not only given me a creative outlet, but it’s also been a way for me to reconnect with what truly matters—living fully, appreciating the present, and capturing the beauty in the world around me. I’m excited for the future and can’t wait to continue growing as a photographer and telling stories through my lens.
<----- That's me with Rich Hall
