Shot these on the Plaubel Makina 67. I enjoyed the photos but the workflow of the camera isn’t for me. Such a beautiful system though!

Thanks to for processing & scanning these.

Being in Europe has pushed me to seek out places that are part of the culture and impossible to find back in LA. New Video on YouTube.

Thanks to for processing / scanning & sponsoring this video. 🙏🏾

Felt good to hop back into large format with this one. Definitely motivated me to shoot more 4x5.

Thanks to for sending me the film to test, and big thanks to for processing / scanning / & printing the image! New video on YouTube.

#CrüLüv • Yoo, I’m Mike Gray, a film photographer with a deep love for storytelling — blending cinematic stills, intimate portraiture, and staged scenes to pull viewers into the world I create. I was born in Houston, Texas, and after the murder of my father, my family relocated to Dallas when I was nine years old. That loss shaped much of who I am, and I found refuge in the arts over time. It wasn’t until after high school that I began seriously exploring my creativity, eventually moving to Los Angeles in 2010 to pursue it fully.

I’m passionate about what I do because I believe storytelling through imagery can rewrite history — or at least how it’s remembered. As a Black artist, my photography isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about creating space for African Americans to be seen in ways we’ve often been denied — with dignity, power, tenderness, and complexity.

I picked up my first camera during the height of the pandemic in 2020, but I’ve been a storyteller long before that — I didn’t always have the tools to express it visually. 📸

#GoingFarTogether ♻️
My first photography book “Far Away From Home” is officially out.

To every single person who helped bring this to life—whether you stood in front of my lens, worked behind the scenes, or quietly supported in the background—thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Five years ago, I never imagined I’d even be holding a camera, let alone releasing my first book. This journey has been wild, humbling, and deeply personal. I’ve poured everything into these pages.

All orders placed today on will be personally signed by me.

I also want to dedicate this moment to my Uncle Greg and my best friend Troy Cannon, who I lost during the making of this book. This one’s for y’all.

Never stop chasing what sets your soul on fire. You never know where it’ll take you. 🖤
