The Rocky Mountains lured Michael to Canada as a 17-year-old from Austria for a summer vacation in 1980. He was asked by his uncle Hans who lived in Banff what he’d like as payment for having helped for a few weeks during that summer at a remote lodge. He innocently replied “A camera so I can document the incredible beauty of the Canadian Rocky Mountains for my friends back in Austria”. That was the beginning of a wonderful life capturing images of scenery and people as Michael had a natural eye for composition, light, and artistic direction. He worked in many capacities including as a chef at other remote lodges until his move to Kelowna in 1991. Fast forward to 1993 and Michael’s passion is still in photography as art & creating the best possible images while taking numerous seminars, courses, and workshops as a professional photographer. He spent the next 15 years specializing in ‘wedding art’ with his partner Suzanne, and both became award-winning photographers in the  very rewarding & passionate field of wedding photography.  

   In 2007, a new direction resulted in the restructuring of the business which has Micheal and SuZanne specializing in promotional, corporate events, architectural,  business, commercial, and family photography,
