Mike Diver studied at The London College of Printing and he started his career as a photographer in 1992. For nine years, he had an international career working in editorial, on various advertising campaigns, and for major record labels with artists such as Björk, Sting, Lenny Kravitz, Oasis & Blur.
With the advent of digital media and the changes affecting the recording industry, it was necessary to evolve. Diver, who had been working with Photoshop as of 1994, was fully embracing digital technology.
At times were photographers were under the pressure of increasing demands, he formed a creative partnership with Pedro Aguilar. Simultaneously, opportunities in different markets were emerging, such as within the luxury brand sector. After 12 years working with people based subjects, Diver & Aguilar decided to get into still life photography.
In 2008, Diver & Aguilar were chosen by CdeC in Spanish for ‘Best Photography in Advertising’. Their work has been a regular feature in the AOP Awards, also winning Epica and Graphis Gold awards.
The visual signature of their work has lead to commissions by a large range of markets, from Graff Diamonds, Coca Cola, Magnum Ice Cream and documenting FC Barcelona over the last five years.
