Michael Armstrong is a photographer currently living and working in Sydney, Australia. His career has spanned several disciplines having shot music videos, exhibited in galleries and produced advertising campaigns for clients internationally.

As a design graduate, Michael made his mark on the Australian design industry with leading agencies such as Autumn:01. It was in this environment that he first began to pursue photography as a primary medium.

Born and raised in the western suburbs of Sydney, Michael spent extended periods in Japan. This clash of cultural influences is evident in his style; a struggle of something beautiful and foreboding laced with an undercurrent of unease and dislocation. This exploration of beauty and its inherent melancholy remain the prominent focus of his commercial work.

Armstrong has lensed contributions for magazines including Vogue Australia, Harpers Bazaar Australia, The Good Weekend, Culture and other fashion titles worldwide.
