Biography

I am a freelance sports and travel photographer based in Louisville, KY USA. While I have participated in a number of photo genres, my principal focuses are sports and travel. My sports photos range from juniors to Division I college. Most of my travel photos currently are from the US midwest and northwest. I also feature a number of photos from my travels in Europe.

Although I dabbled in photography a bit in high school, I really didn't get significantly involved until about eight years ago. Since that time, however, I have formed a real love of making photos. 

My transition to sports photography was helped after the pandemic forced the sports administration department of the university where I taught to lay off several photographers. I was happy to step in to help where I could and gain valuable experience along the way.

Before moving to Louisville, Kentucky, I lived for many years in the Boise, Idaho area.  Therefore, my collections include photos from that area as well.

​​​​​​​I am retired from teaching at a university but am still active in sports photography.

My Equipment

My primary camera is a Nikon Z8. I have been a Nikon shooter from the start of my photo journey and I continue to be happy with the brand. 

For sports, my primary lens is a Nikon Z 70-200 mm f/2.8. I also use a Nikon Z 24-70mm on occasion for sports.

For everyday walk-around use and for travel, I have a Nikon Z 24-200mm. While not quite as sharp as the previous two lenses, it allows me to capture a wide range with just one lens.
