Last Halloween, I had the pleasure of covering a pub crawl event in downtown San Francisco, and it was such a fun assignment! Despite an unexpected hiccup—I was run off the road while riding my motorcycle to the event—the evening turned out to be an absolute blast.
The patrons came from all over the city, bringing incredible energy. The vibe was festive, loud, and full of good times.
If you’re planning your next party or event, don’t forget to reach out to Fireborn Photography for professional photography and videography services.

Hello, Fireborn Photography Community!
It’s been a long time since my last post here—nearly two years, to be exact! I was locked out of my account and, despite having 2-step authentication, I couldn’t get in or reach anyone at Instagram for help. But just over a month ago, I finally regained access!
I’m so excited to be back and reconnect with all of you.
For those who don’t know, I’ve made some big life changes recently. I moved from Los Angeles to the Bay Area to pursue my dream of becoming a Waldorf main lesson teacher. I’m currently living in the East Bay and enrolled in a 3-year training program and apprenticeship. Life has been wonderfully full as I balance teaching yoga, ride-sharing when time allows, and, of course, continuing to pursue one of my greatest passions: photography.
I’m thrilled to start sharing my work with you all again and to be part of this amazing community once more. Thank you for your patience and for sticking around—it means the world to me.
Peace and blessings,
-Michael 🔥🧘🏾🔥

This photo session was both fun and exciting. It was fun because I love-love-love Garden of Life's products, and exciting because as I was shooting I could hardly wait to finish so I could finish that delicious .
Garden of Life is true food!
If you've never tried their RAW MEAL it is seriously next-level nutrition. It's by far the best vegan protein on planet earth. I love the taste, consistency, and it is jam-packed with goodness—including . 🌱

If you're interested in the journey of how Michael Fireborn came to develop Fireborn Photography, I am happy to share my story with you. I'll preface by saying, there is no greater joy in life than getting into the flow of ones unique path.
Growing up I always had a natural entrepreneurial spirit, more importantly I have always been an extroverted people person. Through my younger years—ages 10-18—I found all sorts of opportunities to earn extra cash. Whether it was cutting lawns, picking up trash, or washing cars, I have always had a knack for hustling . In my twenties after graduating college with my AA in Visual Communications—photography, graphic and website design—of all things I became a nightclub and event promoter on the weekends and graphic designer at a prominent financial printer on the weekdays. I was very successful at what I did however, burning the candle at both ends working 7-days a week wasn’t sustainable. Over the course of 2-years, leading a double life—squeaky clean Monday through Friday, party monster on the weekends—eventually got the best of me. It was time to make some new life choices and that is exactly what I did. I subsequently moved from where I was living Scottsdale, Arizona to Ventura, California to be close to family and get a fresh start at life.
Eventually I found myself immersed in the world of health and fitness in my new home of Southern California. I started a very popular YouTube channel and became a juice, cleanse, and detox guru. Eventually that all led to partnering up with a fellow health enthusiast to open a very lucrative and successful juice truck and eventual stand alone juice bar—Open Source Organics. I found myself in the heart of Hollywood, California doing what I loved most—getting people healthy and changing their lives for the better.
After a couple of years I sold my share of the business and over the course of the next 7-years I would do everything from work for Whole Foods Market and Starbucks, travel solo around the United States, live in ashrams, and solo backpack many of our majestic National Forests. This journey and spiritual sabbatical of Self-discovery and travel all led me to a point in my life where I asked myself—what now?
I took an inventory of my life and all that I had done up to that point and wondered what was next for me. I didn't have anything in particular in mind but I asked Spirit for guidance in what I should do next. From that point forward I learned to pay attention to what life was showing me, and most importantly, I learned to surrender and trust.
I figured out that if I wanted to be happy and inspired while simultaneously living my path and purpose, I had to continue following my excitement. In other words, I figured out that to live an abundant and fulfilled life, I had to do what I loved!
And so that’s what I started doing, and continue to do to this very day!
Over the course of the entire year of 2018 I became a total student of photography. Online course after online course, retreats, seminars, trainings, traveling all across the United States, and putting myself out there to learn and get my hands in the mix. Next thing you know, I've built a business doing what I love, and like the juice bar, I am working with amazing people.
It took a minute to find my voice and niche as a photographer, but here we are and I'm helping entrepreneurs and "civilians" shine brilliantly in front of the camera and in life. I'm helping people cultivate authentic confidence and gain validation—it feels awesome!
This past decade of my life in particular has been tremendous, you never know what life has in store for you. My advise for those of you reading this who are still figuring things out with regard to your day-to-day flow—DO WHAT YOU LOVE.
If you’re working at a job you don’t necessarily like or want to be at. Stop right now and appreciate that you have a job and tell yourself how grateful you are to have what you have. After that, it’s time to start putting a plan together so you can figure out how you’re going to make your next move. Nothing worth getting comes right away. Get clear about what you want out of life and find a way to do that in a way that serves mankind. If you make it about money or accumulating material things you will find that even if you are successful by conventional standards, all that will quickly lose its charm. However, if you find a way to serve, to contribute, and to make the lives of those around you better—you are fast on your way to becoming one of the wealthiest people in the world.
