Cocoa Beach Photography is a photography service owned and operated by Michael
Howard Photography.
I was born here in Cocoa Beach back in 1961 and I was growing up on the beach
here on the Space Coast near the Kennedy Space Center when rockets first started
to fly into space. In fact, the first photograph I took was in 1969 of the
Apollo 11 launch to the moon on my dads Nikon. I guess I have never lost
that desire for photography. With my love for this area and the beach, I
try to bring to my photography a bit of this life that I love and love to share
with others.

About Me From the Website: Looking
for the Good Stuff
Mike
is a native and life-long resident of Florida's Space Coast (Cape
Canaveral and Cocoa Beach).
He
took his first photo at age 8 of the 1969 launch of Apollo 11 on its way
to the moon. That's young Mike in the yellow circle at the
lower right.
That
photograph launched Mike's love affair with the camera that led to his
career as a professional photographer. That same rocket was carrying
Astronaut Buzz Aldrin and a copy of the Prayer for Protection
which is featured in our video, just one example of the synchronicities at
work in bringing this project together.

Mike's
stunning photos are the basis for the Prayer Video. Mike also wrote
the inspired verses for the "Sails of the Spirit Motivationals"
Mike supports the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, the Juvenile
Diabetes Research Foundation, and the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
