About Mike
Photography is my life and I love capturing everything that makes our lives so rich and enthralling. As a professional photographer, I have been blessed with the honor of capturing people's lives at their most memorable events, to quiet moments, to everyday images! I strive to make sure that those important moments are kept forever to cherish for years and generations to come.
In my "off " time (is there ever?), I am a professional actor, and moderate speed Ironman Triathlon veteran who still keeps in shape and competes, only to give me the stamina and strength to photograph in various positions, speeds, and angles.
I currently reside in sunny Los Angeles, Calif. where it's usually pretty warm, and occasionally rocked by earthquakes. I would love to hear from you so please leave a comment or feel free to get in touch with me or visit my main website at www.mpalmaphotography.com.
Stuff you probably don't know about me
I was raised approximately 1/4 mile from the hospital I was born at
I once was in a film with Pat Morita, or as most people know him, "Mr. Miyagi" of Karate Kid fame, playing one of his henchmen.
People say I look like Jamie Fox, but I still don't buy it.
I'm a child of the 80's. Yup, I had a "Member's Only" jacket at one point.
I'm a HUGE Michael Jackson fan. Huge. Oh, and I have his autograph. Seriously cool.
I belong to a terrific improv group called Cold Tofu.
My favorite movies of all time include actors Gene Kelly, Danny Kaye, and Johnny Depp.
I think I still have a crush on Angelina Jolie.
I find myself saying "Okay, few more and we're done", but we never really are finished.
I'm a Libra.
I was in the USC Trojan Marching Band (but please don't hold it against me if you went to that OTHER school across town).
Thanks for visiting, and get out there and make your life awesome! While you're at it, take a photo :)
