Extraordinary Encounters with Christopher

Christopher Michel’s photography spans continents, oceans, and the outer edges of human experience. From windswept polar expeditions to intimate portraits of thinkers, explorers, and creators, his work offers a striking look at the world and the people shaping it.

A former military pilot and serial founder, Christopher brings both curiosity and humility to his lens. Whether he’s photographing Nobel laureates or capturing the stillness of Antarctic ice, the result is always intentional, elegant, and deeply human.

There’s an expansiveness to his portfolio that’s hard to describe — it’s part documentary, part dream. You’ll find yourself jumping from a serene aerial shot above the clouds to a fire-lit portrait from Burning Man, each image held together by a clear and thoughtful eye.

Take your time exploring Christopher’s work. There’s something remarkable waiting in every frame.
