Capturing the pulse of CITY life
Hello! I'm Morgan Mickens, a Detroit-based (and traveling) photographer specializing in the built environment, interior spaces, and city experiences. My journey in photography and architecture began in high school and evolved as I pursued a graduate degree in interior design. After 5 years of freelancing, a pivotal moment at a 2011 design conference in New York defined my mission: to revitalize city narratives through powerful visuals.
Design isn't just about the project; it's about the profound impact on people. With a solid foundation in interior design and a passion for photography, I honed my skills to document the life and developments transforming cities. My work fuses design and photography - two vehicles powerful enough to change narratives - by creating compelling images that capture the essence of city life, the built environment, and the human interactions within these spaces.
Join me as I showcase the energy, hope, and renewal shaping our cities' futures.
