Mike Browne
Mike Browne is a Commercial Photographer passionate about training and educating others in the art. Mike resides in the New Forest on the South Coast of England, rides motorcycles everywhere, rain or shine and loves exploring this magnificent world we live in along with its diverse cultures and people.
In his early years, he drove trucks and earth movers. Photography was only a hobby then, and he admits he wasn’t very good at it. Browne loved the feeling of
In his late 20s, Mike was bored with his job but didn’t know what would be inspiring and fulfilling. So he packed it in, sold everything and travelled. A year later, a life-changing conversation in Africa led him to return to the UK to retrain and become a photographer. He hasn’t looked back.
In December 1993, he issued his first invoice and since has been a commercial & wedding photographer.
Clients include individuals, businesses and world-class organisations such as Jet Aviation which builds luxury private jets, and the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight. I’ve made promotional films for Pentax, Samsung, Olympus and Tamron.
Following a long-term project and exhibition about homelessness Browne was hailed by the Romanian President. Mike is listed as one of Petapixel’s ‘Top Ten Best Photography Trainers.
“It’s a joy to share knowledge and experience to help photographers achieve their goals and dreams. It’s the best feeling when students have a ‘Eureka’ moment, a new understanding and perspective to help them on their way.
We give back to the world we love to photograph by investing in social enterprise projects that benefit people for whom buying a camera is an expense undreamed of but who selflessly make powerful pictures for us.”
