Summary:
Fascination with Art & Beauty + a Cool Camera + Seeking Creative Adventure = Me
Type of Photographer: Hybrid
It’s simply not in my nature to follow the industry rule to stick to one genre, such as “Wedding Photographer” or “Portrait Photographer.” I absolutely love shooting all kinds of genres, and I think it’s made me a better image creator. In fact, I don’t even stick to photography alone. I enjoy creating cinematic video, graphic design, and helping individuals and businesses with their branding and creative content for their marketing and promotions.
Bio:
I am a visual-digital artist in the mediums of photography, cinematography, and graphic design. I live and work out of Natchez, Mississippi, an eclectic art and cultural center with a long and storied history. (Think Mark Twain and Gone with the Wind.) Our beautiful little city sits high atop three-hundred foot bluffs overlooking the mighty river and across to Louisiana. Natchez celebrated its 300 year tricentennial in 2016. The area’s stunning beauty, extraordinary people, and diverse but synergistic culture have proffered boundless artistic opportunities and influences upon my life. This can be said of both Mississippi as well as neighboring Louisiana. Ultimately, all of this has had a profound influence upon the vision and style I bring to the art forms I am so passionate about.
“We were so fortunate to find Michael Chapman Studios for our Delta Music Museum exhibit project. What we needed was someone with high end skills and exceptional creativity. We found that and more with Michael. This was our first full scale exhibit in 2 decades and we could not be more pleased and appreciative of how it was done. His talent and commitment to the project inspired all of us. I would recommend him higher than 5 ⭐️ if it was available. Oh, and he’s fun to work with too!”
“I was very happy with the margarita and pickle images he took for Fat Mama’s Tamales. Quick response time, multiple image variations and final product specs to account for, he exceeded all expectations!”
“Mr. Mike Chapman did a beautiful job in photographing the newly renovated Ferriday Library. The entrance is stunning with the tile fireplace, wooden ceiling and amazing light fixtures. He took some wonderful angle shots that illuminate the windows with all the natural light. Mr. Chapman also recognizes many of the key service areas that library patrons look for and use. His photos reveal how inviting and comfortable all of these areas are. He also highlights the children’s area with hopscotch carpet, colorful key boards, catchy colors of teal and green in the children’s furniture and pretty shelving with hundreds of great books. Mr. Chapman showcases with his expertise the welcoming vibrant library renovation project by displaying the work of 720 Design in Dallas and Wilmar Construction Company in Vidalia. The public library now truly belongs to the citizens.”
“Michael is such a pleasure to work with. He has skill for capturing the moment and is a true professional. In addition, his personality is very friendly and upbeat. I highly recommend him!”
“The photo book has been a big hit, people are really enjoying it and it has made a big difference with people who can’t make the walk up to the house.”
“Easy to work with and took very professional photos!”
“Highly recommend Michael Chapman Studios! Mike did drone photos for our dealership. I was so impressed with his ability to fly the drone at the same time as getting the exact photo that I was looking for. Mike was very professional and his work was amazing. We will definitely be using Michael Chapman Studios again!”
“Michael Chapman Studios is an outstanding real estate photographer who has an exceptional eye for showcasing properties in their best light. His use of angles, lighting, and composition truly enhances the appeal of every space. The images are crisp, vibrant, and professionally polished, helping to attract potential buyers with stunning visual impact. Highly recommend!”
“Michael was great to work with! I had some scheduling challenges on a project with a quick turnaround on my end. He was very responsive and worked with me to get the photos within my deadline. The photos and aerials came out great! Thank you for all of your help Michael!”
