Real name is Constantine, but everyone calls me Mike (my real) middle name.

If it isn't obvious based solely on my name, I must be Greek or Russian.

I'm a native Bostonian, my Scottish Mother was also a native Bostonian, her Father was also native Bostonian. All Scottish, part of the Clan Grant which migrated to Nova Scotia and then down into the New England states.

And yes, my Father was Greek, he was born in Alexandria, Egypt. He came to the US in the 1950s to attend MIT and he met my mom here, and the rest was history...

My father was an avid photographer and talented artist. while I was growing up photography was all around me. He shot the full range of subjects and was a particularly accomplished model photographer.

I have two sisters who are also artists. One is a painter and sculptor who has lived in the south of France for the past 25 years. She currently runs her own studio and workshop in a very cool location in the center of Sete, France.

My other sister is a fashion designer. She designs and sells jewelry and clothing; Her specialty is in designer hats.

I have followed the photography path which I've been exposed to since a child. I've always had and collected cameras and have been shooting constantly since I got my first camera as a young kid in 1968. My primary focus over the years has been, street shoots, abstracts, landscape and travel photography. I've traveled around the world and have been to all 50 US States. A camera has always been with me wherever I go.

Over the past several years I've focused more on shooting with models. My specialties are art nudes, nude abstracts, pin-up, URBEX and glamour photography

Like my father, I have the eye for creative form and want to further expand my knowledge and creativity in this genre and others as I continue to grow my portfolio.

I've recently opened a new studio in Providence, Atomic Canary - New England. This is the second Atomic Canary studio studio with the original being in Baltimore. We want to facilitate the premiere studio experience for all members of your shooting crew.
