Michael Koch Photo

I love the world and find it to be a very interesting place to spend some time. I like many things about our little planet, but nothing fascinates me more than the people that inhabit it. People will always be the greatest treasure to me, which is likely why I favor photographing people above any other subject matter.

We are each unique, each product of a culture that shapes us while we simultaneously shape it. In this sense, we all mean something, and each contributes to the communities in which we participate. And despite the fact that the world is a vast landscape of diverse opinions, values, traditions, and ambitions, I still believe that we are all connected by common humanity.
