Viewsfromthetrap
Michael C, is a visionary photographer and storyteller with a passion for capturing life’s raw beauty and the human spirit. Inspired by the diversity of creative expression, Michael created Viewsfromthetrap (2 ears 1 mouth) —a podcast dedicated to giving creators a platform to share their truths, tell their stories, and inspire others.
Through the lens of photography, Michael has developed a deep appreciation for the power of storytelling. This same passion drives the podcast, where artists of all kinds—painters, musicians, writers, filmmakers, and more—come together to explore their journeys, their struggles, and the moments that define their art.
Whether it’s discussing the challenges of their upbringing, the nuances of their lifestyle, or the spark behind their creative process, Michael fosters authentic conversations that resonate with creators and audiences alike. With each episode, Michael hopes to build a community where creativity is celebrated, and every story inspires the next.
