Introduction Hollywood based photographer Michael Place has a simplistic approach to his photography, ONE STOLEN GLANCE - the photographers eye, passion of the moment and the subject's beauty. Place's approach to capturing the shot is similar to a "one take" actor, has to be sponateous and natural. Place has worked in the entertainment business for over 15 years, music management/producer, choreographer/dance agent and now is spreading his talents in Film & T.V. Photography has always been Place's passion and with his vast experience and knowledge of the entertainment business and working with a variety of artist from dancers to singers,actors to models he now has a better personal vision of how to use his eye to capture simple elegance in his photography.
