About Craig Michael

In my life I have always wanted to be creative. Since my drawing skills were apparently not going to mature, (stickmen were not going to cut it) I needed another format to express myself, so at an early age I picked up a camera and from there it has a been a 20 year history.

Photography has been a way of life for me. In high school I won numerous photography contests and had my work displayed around town. After, I joined the Navy and served in Desert Shield and Desert Storm as a Naval Photographer. Going through flight school gave me the opportunity to hang out of helicopters taking aerial photographs of my battle group thereby preserving a bit of history for Washington D.C. When I came home to civilian life, I started with an in home baby portrait company. Ten years later I knew that it was time to go out on my own and bring to people what I found to be one of the most important services in our lives.

Photography is something so special. There is nothing that becomes more important to us as time goes by. I find it to be such a privilege to be a part of the special times in peoples' lives, whether its photographing a new born baby, the family pet, Dad's first Harley or any events they will want to capture for generations to come.
