More about Michael A....
What do you love about your job?
Blue jeans, sandy beaches, and photographing beautiful people! From regular street photography of real people, to business people, to working on music and movie sets. My favorite shoots have been the fashion editorial shoots in the Caribbean, Mexico and Key West. I get to work on incredible teams that all work hard to put a great photoshoot together. At the end of the day, we all get to grab a bite and talk about how much fun the day was, even after a 12 hour shoot!
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I've done hundreds of photo shoots over the years. From fashion shoots to commercial shoots to high end weddings. I love working with people, capturing a bride on the most important day of her life is very special. I try to make them feel like superstars, yet calm and relaxed at the same time. Any obstacles that I face on a shoot makes me push even harder, from torrential rain storms, to missing product shipments, to models that could not make the flight connections. Its important for the teams that I work with to push hard and get the perfect shot.

A fun fact about this photographer
I love to scuba dive. I've traveled to some of the best dive spots in the world to have fun diving on beautiful reefs. The millions of tiny fish, sea creatures and corals give my an appreciation for this amazing planet that we all live on.
