Meet Michael Young
I’m Michael – founder and lead photographer at Doggens Photo. My journey into photography began over 12 years ago, inspired by a love for storytelling and a fascination with light. From my earliest experiments with film cameras to today’s digital creativity, photography has always been my way of capturing the beauty, honesty, and depth of real life.
I specialize in portrait, event, and editorial photography, blending technical precision with a documentary-style approach. Whether I’m shooting a personal portrait or a major event, my goal is always the same: to create images that are timeless, emotive, and genuinely you.
The Doggens Photo Philosophy
Doggens Photo was founded with one simple idea: photography should feel personal. Every shoot is approached with care, curiosity, and collaboration. I believe in working closely with my clients, understanding their story, and capturing the moments that matter most.
Our values are rooted in:
- Authenticity – Real emotions, real people.
- Creativity – Thoughtfully composed, never cookie-cutter.
- Trust – A comfortable experience from start to finish.
Since opening the studio, I’ve had the honor of working with hundreds of individuals, couples, and brands – each with their own unique story to tell.
