Roger joined Michigan Photography as its director in 2013 coming from the world of automotive journalism, although his heart has been in photography since getting his first camera as a high school graduation present. He's edited a daily newspaper and a weekly national automotive enthusiast magazine and also worked as a newspaper, wire service and magazine photographer with assignments taking him from Europe to Africa and Asia and nearly all points in between. His photographs have been published in newspapers and magazines around the world. He's just as adept sorting out a car on a race track as he is photographing one...in fact, he authored a book, "Postcards from Detroit, Remembering Formula One in the Motor City," about the grand prix races in downtown Detroit during the 1980s. A graduate of Central Michigan University, Roger was inducted into CMU's Journalism Hall of Fame in 2012 and counts among his greatest professional accomplishments the mentoring of many young newspaper reporters and photographers who have gone on to successful careers. Roger and his wife Lisa, parents to two adult daughters, reside in Tecumseh where he serves as a member of the local school board.

Eric loves a challenge. Whether it’s free diving to photograph humpback whales in the ʻAuʻau channel of Hawaii or capturing the character of a billionaire entrepreneur during a portrait sitting, Eric lives by the motto, “The harder you work, the luckier you’ll be.” His professional journey as photographer has taken him from southeast Michigan to wild Alaska and tropical Maui before returning to Ann Arbor. A senior photographer at Michigan Photography, Eric was named the 2015 & 2013 University Photographers' Association of America (UPAA) Photographer of the Year. A large portion of his work for Michigan Photography involves shooting sports, and in 2009 he had an image selected as one of Sports Illustrated's Pictures of the Year. Eric enjoys mountain biking and boating as well as adventuring with his wife Katie, daughter Alys, son Arthur, and Icelandic sheepdog, Elska, in the great outdoors.

An award-winning portrait and wedding photographer from Salt Lake City, Scott Soderberg began his career as a professional photographer more than 25 years ago. He was one of only a few professional photographers in Utah who held both a master of photography and photographic craftsman degree from Professional Photographers of America. In 2007, Scott became the newest addition to the Michigan Photography team at U-M. In addition to covering a wide variety of university-related events and collegiate sports, Scott also enjoys photographing the U-M campus, looking for new and creative approaches to capturing U-M’s familiar iconic scenes. Scott and his wife, Caryn, have two daughters and reside in Saline.

Daryl joined the Michigan Photography staff full-time in 2014 after being a regular freelancer for many years. A graduate of U-M Flint, he has taught high school art and photography classes in nearby Fenton as well as Mott Middle College as well as running his own fine arts company. While he can often be seen photographing from the sidelines at various Michigan athletic events, Daryl counts his most memorable assignment photographing the discovery of a centuries-old Mammoth skeleton uncovered near Chelsea. Daryl and his wife Amy are avid wine tasters and storm chasers, but make sure to not combine the two passions.

Erin is a born and raised Michigander and a UofM and Michigan Daily alum. Before joining the team, Erin spent time as both a community journalist and freelance photographer where she worked for organizations such as The New York Times, ESPN, and Rolling Stone. When she's not photographing, she’s convincing people that the television show The Bachelor is a sport, falling asleep on the couch by 9 p.m., or working on her cut flower farm with her husband Sean.

Luke Hales is a student intern for Michigan Photography. He joined the team in 2021 as a sophomore and quickly broke new ground by being the first and only student to be sent on assignment. Originally from Chicago, he moved to Ann Arbor to pursue a bachelor's degree in Communication and Media through the college of Literature, Science, and the Arts. He is also minoring in entrepreneurship and enrolled in the Ross School of Business Cappo Sales Track. He will graduate in May 2024. While he regularly shoots a variety of university events, portraits, and more, his true passion is for sports. In his short time at Michigan Photography he has already covered a win in “The Game,” the announcement of President Ono, and traveled with Michigan Men’s Basketball for a trip to the Sweet 16.

Nicole has called Michigan Photography her career for 19 years. Utilizing her exemplary organizational skills, detailed eye and iron will, she transitioned from office assistant to DAM Specialist to take charge of the Image Archive. With over a million digital assets representing twelve terabytes of info, the imagery of the University of Michigan is a pretty big haystack. Nicole prides herself on knowing how to dive in and locate just the right needle you are looking for. When she is not pestering her co-workers about consistent file names, or cataloging the latest Block M shots (seriously, search it – all good things), Nicole is at home in Ypsilanti with her two daughters who amuse, delight and fill their widowed mom with pride. Bonne chance catching them at home in the 1947 bungalow as the three are usually off on some adventure. Whether it be a road trip to Disney World, whisking away to Ohio, Nashville or Cranberry PA; or jetting to Finland to visit family, the three Kinnunens enjoy nothing more than to see what the world has to offer.

Andrea joined Michigan Photography in February 2023 and quickly realized that she loves working with students and faculty members from all over the world. Being from Germany herself, she can relate to the challenges of living abroad. Still, Andrea never lost her curiosity and is interested in all kinds of different cultures. Her focus for the past few years has been on all things Asia has to offer.

So, whenever she is not taking any passport pictures or juggling the assignment calendar for the photographers, she is trying to study Korean or planning a future trip to Japan.

Andrea likes to go to concerts frequently, either with her friends or her husband of 18 years. In the little free time she has left with 3 teenagers at home, she likes to spend it reading and walking her dog Charlie.
