About me
A Swede by birth, who currently lives with his family in Singapore while he works in the field of Value Added Services for Telcos. The innate nature lover in him, transformed from its chrysalid stage when he picked up SCUBA diving in October 2005. A PADI certified Assistant Instructor and Digital Photography Instructor, he is now Ocean Geographic?s Photographer-in-Residence. Although a recent entry into the underwater photography world, Mikael has garnered attention and awards for his pictures, the latest was at the Celebrate the Sea Festival in Manila in June 2009 for his Outstanding Achievement in the WOW category. Mikael has also published his work in Scubadiver Australasia and in Ocean Geographic. Captivated by the beauty of the sea and its creatures, he teamed up with an avant-garde Singaporean designer, Jaire Remy in 2008 and created Haute Couture Aquatique which launched its first line of ladies apparel at the Celebrate the Sea Festival in Manila.
