In his work as a photographer, he strives to capture the pure essence of his subjects and portrays them in a raw and honest manner. He is not afraid to push boundaries and merge film and photography, experimenting with composition and techniques.
His mission is to inspire people and contribute to positive change in the world through both his independent artistic projects and commissioned work. Mike always infuses his personal style, emotion, and artistry into his assignments, creating works that reflect both his own vision and the voice of his clients.
Together with ADRIANA (a make-up artist and hair stylist), they regularly work as an artistic photography duo and you can find them at the major fashion events.
