in the press

"Indoors or out, this photographer takes the time to present any location in breathtaking light. As The New York Times wrote of the importance of high-end professional real estate photography, “These photos are the bait that lure clients to your Sunday open houses.” Mike creates bait of the highest caliber, and his art is only getting better." - Pocketwizard/LPA Design

"Wow! Your photos sold the house sight unseen. We closed the deal today after a phone call early this week from a buyer who noted the amazing photos, and was interested in buying the house right away!" -Carr/Long Real Estate

"To most of his clients (and more than a few fellow photographers) his results must make it look like he uses some sort of magic dust. You can see more of his work on his website, which is definitely worth a visit." -Strobist.com

"The photos were above and beyond our expectations.  We especially appreciated your quick turnaround under less than ideal conditions." - Olson/Olson Architects

In today’s digital world, the vast majority of decisions are made by buyers from in front of their computer screen. Whether purchasing a luxury home or a single night at a hotel while traveling, striking images that capture the aesthetic and quality of your product are of the utmost importance. It’s differentiating yourself from the competition, jumping off the page and standing out in a sea of options. Inspiring three times as many click-throughs on a Travelocity or MLS search. Driving traffic to your product, inevitably leading to increased sales. Both the long term value and ROI of my award-winning imagery continue to impress my clients. My goal is to make your jaw drop, and I won't stop short of achieving that.

CONTROL

A variety of options are available, with regards to lighting, post processing and delivery. Need the images by the next morning? No problem. I can guarantee overnight delivery on even the most complicated projects. Deadlines will be met, every time. House just built, no electricity yet? I can recreate the lighting to a T with my specialized lighting and processing techniques.

EXPERIENCE

Although I'm based in Los Angeles, I've traveled across the United States and internationally on assignment, delivered thousands of images in a multitude of styles, and worked with an enormous variety of clients. From architecture, interior design, hotels, restaurants, real estate, and everything in between.

QUALITY

All of my images are produced with cutting-edge digital equipment. Whether you need a thumbnail-sized image for a hotel search engine, print materials for a luxury real estate flier, or billboard-ready files for a national ad campaign, it's not a problem - just let me know. With specialized architectural-specific lenses and medium format digital cameras at the ready, there is no job too big or too small.

POST-PRODUCTION

Dirty construction site out the window? Not anymore. Can't wait for the artwork to arrive before you start advertising a space? Not a problem; consider it taken care of.  Let me work with you to create the ideal image of your masterpiece.
