Hello, I'm Mike, an advertising and fine art photographer with a focus on abstract and portrait photography. In my fine art work, I employ two distinct approaches: storytelling and abstraction. My portraits are narratives inspired by folk and fairy tales, each image unfolding a unique story. On the other hand, my abstract shots are crafted to engage viewers' imaginations, encouraging diverse experiences and interpretations.

In the realm of advertising photography, my expertise in consumer behavior guides me towards achieving the coveted "wahoo" effect. I aim to create memorable images that resonate with viewers, leaving a lasting impression of the picture, its message, and the associated brand.
