Michael J brings magic and style to photography

This portrait is titled ‘Beauty On The Water’.

Though singing is not his forte, Michael Jackson still leaves a lasting impression with his photography, his eye for detail making him much sought after.

Michael originally had the impression that photography was boring and whatever caused anyone to take a second glance was fake and altered, until 2012 when he stumbled on a black and white photo of the seawalls by one of Guyana’s photography legends, Michael C Lam on social media. Astounded by what he saw, his research and introduction to the photography world began.

Michael was born on October 28, 1985. At the time American pop star Michael Jackson was at the peak of his career and an uncle of the photographer who was a big fan of the ‘King of Pop’ thought his nephew should be named Michael as he already had Jackson as his surname. His life began in Wales, West Bank Demerara, but when he was just months old, his parents relocated along with him and an older brother (now deceased) to Tucville.
