I’m Victor Michael, an editorial photographer based in the UK.
My work sits between fashion, performance, and cultural portraiture, with a focus on presence over spectacle.
I approach photography through direction rather than posing, using restraint, composition, and environment to shape images that feel deliberate and grounded. Whether shooting runway, working in studio, on location, or within live cultural spaces, my interest lies in how identity is expressed through posture, movement, and visual language.
I also document runway and backstage environments within contemporary fashion spaces.
Recent work includes editorial portraiture, fashion week imagery, and cultural performance documentation. Across all projects, I’m drawn to moments that feel composed rather than performed
