About me
Right then, a bit about me. (I won't try to bore you too much).
Originally from Surrey, I moved to Derby in 2019 with my amazing wife and our cat Polly. You can see my little family below.
​
I love being active and exploring the outdoors, however I am also partial to a few pints with friends at the pub, or just chilling with my girls eating copious amounts of pizza and chocolate whilst watching a good film.
​
Oh! Of course I can't forget, I also love photography...especially wedding photography.
My photography journey started way waaaay back when I was a young lad, when my uncle gifted me his classic film camera. I was never seen with out it and I eventually went to college and studied media where I learned all the tricks of the trade, and now here I am.
​
I started Photos by Michael in 2021 and it's one of the best things I have ever decided to do. Quite simply, I love weddings! So the fact I get to go to them AND take a bunch of photos for couples so they can cherish and remember their big day really does mean the world to me.
It's easy to say photography is my biggest passion.
​
I will never tire of the way a photo can take you straight back to a special moment, that's why I became a wedding photographer.
​
​
My personal choice of camera is the Sony A7. I have a couple of them and they are a cracking piece of kit which are a bit of a favourite amongst many professional photographers.
​
They are the market leaders in mirrorless full frame technology and capture photos in high resolution. When paired with high quality lenses they produce stunning images.
​
That's all a bit boring isn't it. The main thing is, you will have banging photos!
If you like the sound of me and think I am the right guy for your photography plans please do get in touch.
I can't wait to get started!
