We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Michael Reinmiller. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Michael below.
Michael, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. We’d love to hear about the things you feel your parents did right and how those things have impacted your career and life.
My parents did tons of volunteering and worked hard! The family theme was work hard play hard.
Michael, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
I do all kinds of photo and video. Getting more into drone photography and professional head shots as of late. I think what it is that sets me apart from others in this field is I have been doing it since 2001ish and have gone through all of the changes that digital media has given us. I get a total rush out of “getting the shot”.
I have a large set of customers that hit me up for services year after year. They have enjoyed watching my skills improve over the years as well.
What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?
Every few years new breakthroughs come in the digital arts areas and I just LOVE seeing what they can do. I love that once I am really good at one thing it builds on the next. Looking at my work over the years you can see a huge progression and that is just a rush! Whats next?
Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?
In 2000 I took a photography class and I was the only one with a digital camera. I think it was a 1.3 megapixel camera. I was mocked by the entire class of film photographers including the teacher. Digital is never going to make it. You are wasting your time and money they said. I loved the idea of having the image so quickly and thought it was worth what ever drawbacks it presented. Now it is the standard.
