I‘m the kick in the pants you didn’t know you needed.

Why Mike

I Walk the Walk: Unlike many consultants who offer advice based on theoretical knowledge or a client-side perspective, my guidance stems from over two decades of doing the hard work. I've built a thriving photo business shooting for global brands like Red Bull, Adidas, Puma, and Dunkin’. My insights are rooted in the challenges, successes, and failures I've encountered along the way.

Teaching Experience: With 10+ years of experience as a guest instructor at the Rocky Mountain School of Photography and business coaching, I bring a wealth of teaching experience making me adept at breaking down complex concepts into practical steps for success.

Unconventional Approach: I don't conform to industry norms. My success has been fueled by a desire to look at things differently and take the road less traveled. When others go left, I tend to go right. This unique approach reflects in my consulting style, offering fresh perspectives and innovative solutions.

Positive Attitude: There is a lot of complaining in this industry. “Rates are shrinking. There is no work. It’s too competitive.” I call BS. With the right perspective, I firmly believe anyone can thrive if they are willing to learn the business, do the work, and identify where they want to go.

Coaching Philosophy: I love doing business with a handshake. Personal connections are the foundation of my career, and my coaching works the same way. I work to get to know you, helping you apply strategies and find solutions that are unique to your business and your situation.

Together we will . . .
