Hi, I’m Mike.

After years working in the corporate world, I decided to turn my passion for photography into capturing the moments that actually matter.

My style of photography isn't about stiff poses, fake smiles, or spending hours standing in line for group photos. It's about documenting real emotion, spontaneous laughter, and the quiet, authentic connections between the people you love most.

Whether it's the busy magic of a wedding day, a relaxed afternoon family walk, or welcoming a newborn home, my approach is completely candid, natural, and low-stress.

My goal is to create timeless, beautiful memories that don't just sit on a hard drive, but end up framed on your walls to be passed down and cherished for generations.

What Clients Are Saying

“I would definitely recommend using Mike at JNM Photography. Recently I asked for him to capture myself and my two children in a relaxed and natural way.

I was open to locations and Mike found a perfect spot where we got some truly lovely photos and captured some great memories for us.

He was friendly and professional, even lying down in a wet field to get the perfect shots. Thanks Mike, I’ll treasure these photos forever.”

“Mike was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. He created such a relaxed and comfortable environment in our home, which made the whole experience feel really natural — especially with a baby involved!

The candid photos he captured are beautiful and genuinely reflect our family so perfectly. He was also incredibly patient and calm while dealing with our very excitable cockapoo, which definitely deserves a special mention!

We’re so grateful for the memories he captured and would highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for relaxed, natural family photography.”

Your Questions, Answered

How far in advance should I book a session?

I recommend reaching out at least four to six weeks ahead of your desired date to ensure availability and allow time for collaborative planning. However, I do accommodate last-minute projects when my schedule permits. When I’m not photographing I am either being a stay at home dad to my children or carrying out corporate consultancy so my schedule can be flexed to fit your requirements.

Do you offer customizable packages?

Absolutely. Each project begins with a consultation where we can discuss your objectives, preferred style, and logistical needs. From there, we can collaboratively craft a package that fits both your vision and budget. I do have set packages but these can always be tweaked to your specific needs.

When and how will I receive my images?

Final, retouched images are delivered via a secure online gallery within three to four weeks of your session or event. High-resolution downloads and print options are included.
