Mikael Raymond, was born in small town in the middle parts of Sweden. His interest in photography started in late 2006 while visiting his girlfriend in London. Soon this interest became more than a interest, he found the world of fine art photography.

Mikael has a fondness for black & white photographing and he mostly finds his inspiration from the French and from the eastern European scene. Mikael's black & white photos express the Nordic light and he enhance that light with tones that suits that special atmosphere in Scandinavia.

In addition to photographing, Mikael is a trained musician and hi's sharing the world of music and the world of photography with the viewer and to the listener.
