PORTFOLIO
MICHAEL CARTER
PHOTOGRAPHER
-2-
HELLO I am a 26 year old photographer based in brisbane , i originally got into photography shooting my mates while on surf and skate trips and then ended up getting recognised and published by some of the big surf and bodyboard publications in Australia and proceeded to drop all of my bodyboarding sponsors and pursue a career as a full time freelance photographer. In 2013 i felt i had to much content left from trip that mags wouldn’t use so i started a online magazine called Sh!t magazine. I designed and shoot for it myself and ended up growing and audience base of 140 000 reads per issue. I then pursued more commercially based work in 2015 working with boardstore skate shop shooting their social media and ecommerce content from 2015 to 2017 . in 2018 I relocated to brisbane to study a dipolma of Photoimaging at Billy blue to learn the tools i need to enter the industry with all the tools needed to be multidisciplinary for any future clients or employers .
