Aviation · Military · Portraits — Washington, D.C.

The mission.
The moment.
The portrait.

Aviation, military, and portrait photography by a retired Air Force command pilot who spent 24 years on the other side of the canopy.

Some photographers chase light. I flew through it for two decades.Now I capture it — for the aircraft I love, the people who serve, and the clients who want to look like the strongest version of themselves.

The Photographer

Pilot first.
Photographer always.

I picked up my grandmother's manual camera at ten years old and never put the habit down — not through 24 years of Air Force service, not through a career in the cockpit. Today I shoot from a studio in Fairfax, Virginia and flightlines everywhere else.
