Mike Amico
Always having a creative passion for the arts, Mike Amico entered the Photography industry as both a trainer and a salesman. This is where he has spent the past twenty-four years of his life, observing many changes in both camera technology and processes.
While Photography over the past few years has become more "creating the moment” and Mike enjoys this aspect of the art, he also tries to capture the moment the way only a photographer can. “Composing a scene through the viewfinder is an amazing feeling! Freezing the action and catching a detail that only I can see is what really makes me love the art of Photography.”
Through his wide range of subject matter, Mike enjoys teaching others about the art of photography and his process in order to help others to achieve a better understanding of the craft.
Mike is a Technical Account Manager for OM-Digital Solutions Corporation representing the OM-System Micro 4/3 line of cameras.
