About Mike
WHO IS MIKE ELFORD
I’ve always felt my life was a television show. Somewhat like the Truman show, starring Jim Carrey, but in this case, I know I’m in this show. It’s you all who have no idea the part your playing in it. It’s a wonderful show, rather an incredible life. It’s a go go go lifestyle, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. For me, I hope to make a real impact on those who come into my life. I have so many stories, so many laughs…. One motto I live by is a saying.. “Everywhere You Go, Always Bring the Weather. My interpretation is that everyone loves the sunny day… and we all dislike the rain and the clouds. So do your part to always bring that sunshine, and let it shine on everyone you meet.
So that’s what I’m about.. please check out the many facets of my life below:
Mike Elford PHOTOGRAPHER
It’s amazing to me when I look back, reminiscing about my photography story. How it started, where it’s taken me, and how this photography world has impacted my life. It’s just amazing. My journey as a photographer started 20 years ago with the arrival of my firstborn Samantha. I vowed to document everything in her life. Every breath. I was so proud…. I still am of course. I always had my camera with me. To learn more about what motivated me to become a wedding photographer, please click here.
Mike Elford HUSBAND & FATHER
For me, life is extremely busy. I’m always on the go… and I wouldn’t have it any other way. My most valuable asset is time. And when I’m not working the day job or photographing someone… I can be found hanging with my wife Stacie and our three kids – Samantha (20) Steven (16) and Addison (14). I’m so fortunate to have a life where each of my kids is unique and inspires me in different ways. To learn more about my family, and how we all get along.. please click here.
Mike Elford SANTA CLAUS
The Wedding Photography season typically finishes for me at the end of October. This gives me two weeks to complete any photography projects or to relax and recoup before a busy Santa Season begins. That’s right I am Santa Claus. You can find me at 46+ events beginning in mid-October, and continuing right up until Christmas Eve!
