Mitten State Media was created in 2024 by Brian Ford, a cross-platform visual media artist based in Northern Michigan.

His robust photography and video background has led him to document stories across the globe; from the post-industrial struggles of Detroit to the post-conflict transformations of rural Colombia; from the rebuilding efforts in Haiti following the 2010 earthquake to the regrowth of the South Pacific's coral reefs.

His past and current clients range from blue-blooded giants such as National Geographic, Amazon Prime, Discovery, and Smithsonian to NGOs and networks of all sizes, including A&E, PBS, TLC, UNICEF, the University of Michigan, Dell, the World Bank, and the Clinton Global Initiative.. 

Technically conversant from field to final finishing, Brian is well-equipped to capture, convey, and give a voice to your story, whatever it may be.
