Today we talk to Michael Osikoya, a visual creative based in Winnipeg who dabbles in portrait work, product photography, and videography. We talk about timelessness in your work, Instagram photographers, and observing the world in light and shadows. A pleasure to have him, so much that we ran the show for quite some time. If you want to see  the uncut versions, let us know on Twitter or Instagram.
