Transcript:
I was literally leaning out the uh the waste gunners port of an old b-25 and uh I wasn't thinking about it at the time, but I wasn't even strapped into the plane and I'm leaning out this window of a shaky old 60 plus year old aircraft going 125 knots, and after I got done with the shoot and we got back to the uh to the airfield I thought wow that that could have ended differently.

I try and not just record what I'm seeing, but interpret what I'm seeing and put my viewer in that place. Photography is very important to me it's it's my career it's my major hobby I it's a little cliché but, I really do kind of eat sleep and and drink photography. I think one of the ways I got better was I just went out and shot everything around me. I like fast cars. I like airplanes, I uh you know I'm an eight-year-old, I love trains and planes and automobiles so that spurs my my inner child to to get out and have fun and make unique and interesting photos, in the right situation i love getting out my macro lenses and exploring the world of the minute. So often macro photographs become abstract pieces of art because of how lenses behave in high magnification close-up situations. I love landscape and nature photography as well.

I travel the country doing events for Tamron lecturing to audiences large and small about photography and how to be a better photographer. I love to be able to get in front of a group of people at a seminar and share my passion so that the attendees can come away with a with a new spark and a new passion of their own be able to get out and create those interesting photographs that they're going to cherish.
