About Me

Mike started teaching classes back 25 years ago and started teaching photography classes through his studio 20 years ago! Mike was the first photographer in southern Alberta to offer courses at the studio and on location throughout the province. Many have tried to copy his lighthearted fun teaching style ~ but they have not succeeded! Today Mike can be found teaching classes, leading photo safaris and expeditions, teaching photo editing and printing, computer use and much more. "My desire is to not only take great pictures but to share my knowledge with others. So many people are struggling to get a grasp on digital photography that I could not just sit by and let people struggle, so I have expanded my teaching to allow more students learn the right way to take pictures." From companies needing to get images transmitted around the world, to people wanting to improve their photography on a personal or a professional level. Mike is the only full time photographer teaching in southern Alberta and loves sharing his knowledge with others. Mike has done just about everything in photography, he work for The Lethbridge Herald for many years and has had work published in Readers Digest, Alberta Report, The Calgary Sun and many, many magazines and publications. Mike has many of his nature and wildlife prints in private collections around the world. Mike also photographs grads, family portraits and commercial & industrial work. Mike has taught many students, teachers, photographers and graphic artists over the years how to take better pictures and get the most out of the equipment that they have and use.
