Motorbikes and Photography - A Perfect Combination

Your tour guide and photo coach

Hi, I'm Mike. Bikes have been my go-to transport since I was 14. Windy back road, sunny day, loud pipes are my happy place, meditation and fun space. There's nothing better than trying to get lost in some beautiful scenery for a day or two. Sometimes more... I currently have x2 Triumph Thunderbird 900s, a cosmetically un-restored 1950 BSA B31 and my favourite bike of all time - a 900 Triumph Legend I've had from new. It's an original surviver on its 2nd time around the clock!

I'm flattered to have been called the UK's friendliest Photography Expert by 500px and proud to have made hundreds of videos and spent thousands of hours teaching people like you to see more beauty in the world every day (and to capture that beauty), by thinking like a photographer. 

My YouTube channel has served more than 26 Million views and has more than 260,000 subscribers. I've appeared on TV shows and been asked to speak at some of the best photography events on earth, such as:

• Xposure International Photography Festival, Sharjah, UAE
• The Photography Show, Birmingham, UK

I've enjoyed a wonderful career as a photographer, presenter and teacher. I even trained as a teacher so that I could reach my full potential and enable others to reach theirs.

As a photographer, I'm proud to have won multiple awards: 

• Petapixel TopTen Youtube Trainers list
• x3 Xposure International Photography Festival Awards
• Fuji Commercial - X2 Fuji Wedding
• Kodak Gold
• 14 Master Photographers Association Awards

And I've been lucky to have had exhibitions at prestigious venues such as:

• The Master Photographers Association
• Royal Photographic Society
• Romanian Embassy (London)
• Xposure Photography Festival - others...

When not teaching photography I also have a role as a brand ambassador for ClickASnap.com and I have written for publications such as:

• Ephotozine
• DSLR User magazine
• Professional Photographer
• Photography Monthly - others...

Trumping all of this, my proudest achievement to date is the huge number of wonderful 5* reviews on Trustpilot and Google - written by people like you after completing my courses. This is what inspires me to continue creating courses to help more people fall in love with photography.
