ABOUT MIKE

I am very fortunate to be able to combine my love of photography with my interest in nature, sports and entertainment.

I began photographing images of product, people and places for print material and later for the web.

While I love photographing the excitement of sports and the beauty of nature, my favorite genre is event photography. It’s the most challenging work in the business. Unpredictable lighting, crowded venues, moving targets, and limited shooting times are the norm. Those challenges combined with the excitement of live performances create my favorite photo settings.

My equipment consists of Nikon D3S and D700 cameras with a large assortment of wide angle and zoom lenses.

I am available to photograph your event. You can contact me at 812-989-0468 or email me at bluestrain@aol.com
