My Bio
Photographer, aviation enthusiast and private pilot as well as a husband and father of three.

I grew up in Omaha, Nebraska during the 1960’s and fondly recall watching Starfighters, Phantoms and Super Sabres thunder over my back yard. This fascination with flight has never waned. I fulfilled a personal goal when I received my private pilot license in 1985. I experienced the thrill and satisfaction of accumulating flight time in the Piper Tomahawk, Warrior II and Archer II as well as simulated air combat hours with Atlanta’s Sky Warriors in a Beech T-34A Mentor.

My interest in aviation has evolved into a passion for aviation photography. I have been photographing aircraft, along with the people who fly and maintain them, for more than 25 years and have compiled a large archive of unique and interesting photos. While most of my work for hire tends to be color action photography, I also love creating black & white fine-art images.

Today I am a professional photographer, specializing in aviation photography, but also shooting sports, event and fine-art images, using Nikon DSLR camera bodies and lenses. I am also a regular contributor to the premier airshow industry magazine World Airshow News. www.airshowmag.com. In addition to print and electronic media sales, I am available for custom photo sessions.

You my friend, are a phenomenal photographer.
Thank you for the kind words!
Have you ever been to Oshkosh?
Not yet, I have had plans to attend several times but "real life" keeps getting in the way...
I've been several times.
I can't believe how much I enjoyed your gallery Chris; your photography and work on the prints captures the majesty and power of these wonderful aircraft. Keep up the great work! :)
Thank you! I really appreciate the comment and the support.
