Chip Chick
When Michael was still in college, he landed a job as a photojournalist at the Associated Press.
From there, Michael went on to work for the Boston Herald, where he shot photos at the NBA Playoffs, the World Series, and the Super Bowl.
Michael also photographed anti-nuclear protests, politicians, and even President Ronald Reagan.
Michael decided to leave the east coast behind and move to Santa Monica, where he learned unique lighting tricks while working on television and film sets. These tricks were a springboard for Michael developing his own incredible methods and signature style.
This, in turn, set the stage for Michael to become the go-to portrait photographer to the stars. He has worked with Drew Barrymore, Will Smith, Leonardo DiCaprio, the Olsen twins, Kate Winslet, Pierce Brosnan, and a host of other big names in Hollywood.
Aside from being a preeminent celebrity portrait photographer, Michael is also a director, author, and sought-after commercial photographer.
