about

My name is Mike Folden and I’m a Photographer/Director from Seattle Washington. I am currently working full-time at creativeLIVE as Video Promotions Specialist.

It’s taken me a long time to really understand “what I do”. Whatever medium it’s through, I like to tell stories. These days it happens to be through a lens. Regardless of what tools I use, at the end of the day, I tell stories. Your stories. Stories through stills and motion.

Over the years I’ve had the chance to work with some incredible clients like Gist/RIM, AT&T, Allstate, Startup Weekend, Giant Thinkwell, Teach Street, Zaarly, Feral Motion, Board Insiders, NW Crossfit and lot’s of amazing artists/musicians.

My focus has been with the startup community in Seattle, mainly because they’re cutting edge, scrappy and willing to take chances. I like stepping outside of the box but I’m also ok with staying within the lines. It’s all about where you want to go to tell your story.
