MIKHAEL ROMAIN

Prop Stylist & Set Designer

Website: www.mikhaelromain.com

Contact: mikhael.romain@gmail.com

Bio:

Mikhael’s love for styling emerged fresh out of college when as a writer for design publications, she was asked to style the houses she wrote about. Mikhael found she could tell a story visually the same way she did with words, and fell hard for styling and set design.

Mikhael eventually set writing aside to continue as a fulltime prop stylist. She worked for Restoration Hardware, styling the catalogues and new gallery stores, before going out on her own as a prop stylist and set designer. Today she works with a myriad of clients including Apple, Google, Banana Republic, Walmart, Restoration Hardware, Coach, Visa, and more.

Mikhael moves seamlessly through building sets for motion and still photography, styling for advertising shoots, and working with art directors and producers at each stage of the process. She brings high energy and positivity to set, and while not always the most skilled at parallel parking a box truck, you'll find that she's down to do whatever it takes to get the job done well.

When not working, you will most likely find Mikhael wandering flea markets, estate sales, and local boutiques; relishing in the hunt to find the perfect pieces. On the weekends she's either at the beach, moonlighting as a soccer mom, hiking with her hound dog, or trying to perfect the banana pancake.
