BIOGRAPHY
Michael Muller is a Los Angeles based artist known for his complex and profound body of photography. Muller’s portraits capture the raw emotions of celebrities, rockstars, superheroes, athletes and wildlife. Raised in Northern California, Muller spent much of his childhood in Saudi Arabia and has since circled the globe shooting for the pages and covers of publications including Vanity Fair, Elle, Rolling Stone, Harper's Bazaar, Interview, and the New York Times. His images can be seen on iconic movie posters such as The Avengers, Guardians of The Galaxy, Spiderman, X-men, Iron Man and Captain America. In 2007 Muller turned his lens underwater and began photographing sharks as they have never been seen before. Both Michael's commercial assignments and his fine art shots have a unique signature style and his passion for the art of photography can easily be felt by simply looking at his photographs. About his work, Micheal states, ”When people view my work, I simply want to evoke emotion, and let the viewer feel they are in fact ALIVE”.
