Piscean Photograph

Capturing the Essence of Light and Life Hello, I'm Mike Dorman, a Central Florida-based fine art photographer with an enduring love for black-and-white photography. Over the past 18 years, my work has captured the landscapes, coastlines, cities, and wild places of the western United States, the Pacific Northwest, and the Florida coast. While I primarily concentrate on fine art photography, I also work in the realms of color, surrealism, fantasy, and digital painting. My work can be found in government and corporate spaces, as well as in private collections. Black and white, to me, is pure emotion and timeless storytelling. In the simplicity of monochrome, I capture moments in time, allowing you to connect with the raw feelings and narratives within each image. Nature and the urban landscape equally inspire me. From the tranquility of the wilderness to the dynamic pulse of the city, I aim to convey the unique atmospheres and moods of these settings. Through the interplay of light, shadow, and texture, I offer a unique perspective on diverse landscapes and experiences. My love for nature is apparent in my work. I strive to share the serenity and vitality of the natural world and its wild places, inviting you to feel the same connection I do when I capture these scenes. In my surreal and fantasy series imagination knows no bounds. I invite you to step into dreamlike realms, where the ordinary becomes extraordinary. These images grant a glimpse into the boundless possibilities of our minds, where reality and illusion intersect. Simplicity often wields the greatest power, and my minimalistic pieces underscore the beauty of simplicity and abstraction. My figurative work invites you to explore the human form, forging a connection between you and the emotions of the subject. The human body serves as a canvas of infinite beauty and expression. Through bodyscapes, I portray the grace and uniqueness of the human form, seeking to convey the delicate balance between vulnerability and strength while hinting at the stories behind each image. My aim is to engage your imagination and curiosity, stir emotions, and foster a deeper connection with the world that surrounds us. I hope you'll connect with the emotions and scenes in each image and continue the story within your own mind and heart.
