  Mike Boatman   advertising photographers

  For over 30 years Mike Boatman's award-winning images have been part of the national advertising community. Mike looks at each assignment uniquely in order to design emotionally impacting images that will sell his clients' products and services.

  Mike's goal over the years has been to constantly learn, improve and apply his art of lighting to the craft of photography to create images that tell a story with emotion.

  The most interesting aspect of his images is that they are created on location, and often with the most impossible time lines and shooting conditions.

  Chicago: Mike Boatman  

  Some of the images featured in this Spotlight were produced in a broom closet sitting on top of cleaning supplies.

  "The following offerings are not studio, food-styled produced images and are not retouched," says Mike Boatman. "All of them are real food creations plated by the chef, on location, using only available props. Many were produced as the food was being served and all were photographed in less than an hour and most in under 15 minutes; not hours like in the studio."

  However, studio food photography has and is a prominent item on Mike's photographic menu for clients such as Tyson Foods, Sara Lee Corporation, Bryan Food, Jimmy Dean Sausage, Holiday Inn, St. Clair Foods, Embassy Suites and The Madison Hotel.

  When the application calls for photography to be of real food with the most exotic of chefs or locations, there are very few that can match Mike Boatman.
