Today we’d like to introduce you to Michael Jordan.
Michael, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
I started doing photography four years ago, my bro Paul took me out shooting with him and I instantly fell in love with it. Being self-taught has made the journey of being a photographer that much better. Always wanting to grow and expand my portfolio. My eye gravitated towards landscape and street photography early on. I enjoy being able to catch people in their natural form. The name of my business Eye Of The Shooter, came about me just wanting to embody “beauty is in the eye of the shooter” in every photo I take. This is my way of showing how I see the world. Being able to share some of the special moments being a photographer has allowed me to be apart has the best part so far.
Has it been a smooth road?
Life is always going to have its ups and downs. Especially being self-taught earlier on I would get the discouraged feeling I wasn’t taking the “look” I saw around. That definitely would put me in a rut until I just started shooting with love and not overthinking it. Every obstacle that’s ever presented itself is just tested, getting me prepared what’s waiting for me.
We’d love to hear more about Eye Of The Shooter Photography.
Eye Of The Shooter specializes in all forms of photography. I’m known for my landscape prints and creative portraits. Being able to finally find my passion for what I wanted to do in life through the camera and turning it in a business has been a blessing. My angles I would say sets me apart from others. Also, one thing that’s helped is being true to myself and not hopping on anybody else wave. I’m not trying to take photos like anybody else outside myself. That is something that has set me apart since I’ve gotten started.
How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
I see the industry going more digitally with the current climate of the world. If you look at the current growth rate with more streaming services becoming available. I can see a service for creatives of all mediums being created.
