Was liebst du an deinem Job?

I love telling stories. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and video is a thousand words, 30 times a second. When a client loves the work that I have done for them, nothing beats that in the world.

Welche Shootings hast du schon gemacht und wie hast du sie besonders gemacht?

Events, concerts, weddings, theater and set photography, portraits, boudoir, headshots, product photos, and Real Estate and Architectural photos. I have also done an extensive amount of videography and film work, from commercials, product segments, etc. to documentaries and feature films. I have a pretty diverse and extensive collection of images taken over the years. I love telling a story with pictures, and I love filling the frame with compelling imagery.

Erhaltene Preise, Ehrungen und Anerkennungen

I work for hire. I've never entered my work into contests, so I haven't won any. But what I can provide are some testimonials from happy clients that I've worked with. To me, these are more valuable than any award.

"Mike, I just want you to know that I and everyone else here last night was completely blown away by your photography. I don't give compliments litely, but you are, without a doubt, the most talented photojournalist I have ever known in my lifetime. Blown away!" - From a very well known event coordinator.

"Michael Lindberg is one of Portland's secret talents. Mike has been my exclusive photographer for every show I have produced in Portland. His work is amazing as he has the ability to see and capture the perfect moment. Not only are his pictures well composed, but before he delivers the finals pics he takes the time to crop and color balance each one beautifully." - From a Film and Theater Director

"I direct short films and music videos and I have had the pleasure of working with Mike Lindberg
on 4 shoots, each rather different. Mike is a diligent and focused cameraman who was able to
follow the action during improvised chase scenes, continuously adjusted for changing light
conditions, and perceptively framed moving action with as much care as a director. He is
intelligent, engaged, asks just the right amount of questions(but not too many), takes direction
well, is cheerful even at the end of a very long shoot, and has an unobtrusive and neutral
presence when sensitive material is being shot. On smaller budget productions, he also
handled the lighting and it was impeccable.

I’ve been lucky enough to be able to use his talents when he is between bigger projects and
would work with him again without hesitation. His technical skills, proactive approach to getting
the best footage for someone else’s vision, and his calm demeanor when everyone is running
around being artistes make him a valuable addition to any production. Anyone can make sure a
camera is in focus- but who’s holding the camera makes a big difference in the final results." - From a Film Producer/Director
