I am Mikael Steenken, a freelance photographer based in the Netherlands. With the privilege of extensive travel and living in diverse countries, I have cultivated a passion for capturing every moment, memory, place, and experience that comes my way. What began as a hobby with a Canon EOS 1200D has now evolved into a professional journey using the Canon EOS 6D Mark II.
My innate sense of composition and meticulous attention to detail have propelled my photography to new heights. While I consider myself an all-round photographer, I specialize in model, wedding, and family photography, offering my services to capture precious moments and create lasting memories.
People often inquire about my favorite photo, and without a doubt, it would be one of the earliest photographs I took during the early stages of my passion. This photograph holds a special place in my heart as it was captured in the most enchanting city I have ever had the pleasure of visiting and living in—St. Petersburg, Russia. To be more precise, it features the mesmerizing Nevsky Prospekt at night.
