Photographer Michael Davino is based in Los Angeles.

Michael grew up in a small midwestern town on the shores of Lake Michigan, around 1978, his interest in photography developed, he bought a camera and taught himself using things he enjoyed at that time.

In 1987 he moved to the Southern California area, joined a few camera clubs and began to work with other photographers,and models, learning and improving his skills. This is a activity that he engages in today always willing to learn from others.

Somewhere in his past he became aware of powerful women in leather and boots, and this made a lasting impression on him. In late 1988, he met a lady who introduced him to Female Domination and fetish worship and through her, he was able to explore this new lifestyle and able to meet others who shared his interests. He also was able to attend fetish parties and events with her and always would see photographers there only taking pictures of people in the most outrageous outfits, yet leaving those dressed in normal fetish outfits alone, and he found his outlet for his photos.

In 1997 he received a press pass from Versatile Fashions for the Dressed to Thrill event, at this event he met East coast photographer Wolfman, who agreed to review his work,liked it, and has made him his west coast associate. Through his help and others well known within the scene he has been able to photograph many Fetish events large and small, Invitation events, and lifestyle & Pro Dominatrixes in their private studios. His enjoyment of women in leather and boots, and Female Domination is a active part of his personal lifestyle and he tries to reflect this in his photography.

Michael is currently seeking out fetish women who have a good size boot collection to be featured on Bootlovers.com, and for Dominant Asian Females for photo sessions.
