Michael has over 20 years of experience behind the lens. He’s traveled to 6 of the 7 continents filming for the BBC Natural History Unit, Apple TV, Netflix, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet and Corporate America. His range and ability to capture any wild creature is a testament to how attuned he is to the natural world.
Michael is a technology junkie keeping up with and shooting the latest cameras. Currently he is shooting RED V-Raptor Rhino and Helium sensor cameras and 8K Canon DSLRs in camera traps and POV situations, Phantom high speed and DJI drone (licensed commercial drone pilot). Michael owns most of his own equipment which is a bonus on any shoot.
