Alexander Mishon (Template:Lang-ru; 5 July 1858, in Kharkiv – 5 July 1921, near Samara) was a Russian photographer and cinematographer. Born to a French family in Kharkiv, he started his career as a photographer and owned a photo studio in his hometown.

Michon is widely regarded as the pioneer of Azerbaijani cinema.
