About Michael Collins
Born in Devon, England, I’m one of the most fortunate people I know. I’ve had an enormously diverse career path, spanning law enforcement, property management, merchandising, photo journalism, copywriting and advertising. And that’s just a start.
My photography interests began at the bullet-proof age of eight, when my trusty Kodak Brownie and I could be found annoying the hawkers, beggars and bemused tradesfolk of downtown Hong Kong. Whilst eating every dubious thing put in front of me, I discovered life and the arcane art of candid photography.
Since then I’ve added real estate photography to my skills as well as the peaceful art of photo restoration – a great contrast.
My writing really took off when I travelled through South America, finding a need to add depth and perspective to the wonderful photo opportunities with words. Once the ice was broken, I tried my hand at a couple of novels and a true-life account of my travels.
A busy life always needs the right balance, so in my spare time it’s off to the gym, out for coffee, or enjoying a long walk and talk with my lovely wife, dream analyst Jane Teresa.
And another book? Absolutely. This time it has to be about real estate, with tonnes of tips on selling homes. Watch this space.
