As a child, I built models of many machines, but World War 2 aircraft was a primary theme for me. I became interested again in military aviation around 1990, and modern military aircraft was now my focus. I shot many pictures during the 1990s and early 2000s. In 2004, I purchased a Kodak DX6490 camera and attended a Maple Flag exercise at CFB Cold Lake, Canada with a good friend from Edmonton. I was fortunate to have media access, and my desire and commitment to photograph escalated - especially with the ability of digital photography.

Now owning multiple Nikon digital single lens reflex cameras and lenses, and with the help and advice of many good friends, I have continued my drive to shoot quality images. With so many changes happening in the near future on the military aircraft landscape, I find it important as ever to photograph these aircraft and people before they are gone.

My images have appeared in Pratt and Whitney Press Release, Combat Aircraft magazine, Bradley International Airport's The Airport News, Otis Air National Guard Base Otis Notice and Fine Scale Modeler, as well as the reference books and scale model decals below.

Prints of my work hang in the Massachusetts National Guard Headquarters, USAF/ANG's 102nd Fighter Wing, 103rd Fighter Wing, 104th Fighter Wing, 108th Air Refueling Wing, US Coast Guard Air Station Cape Cod and US Navy VFA-106.

My models reside in the USAF/ANG's 43rd Fighter Squadron, 102nd Fighter Wing, 104th Fighter Wing, 158th Fighter Wing, US Coast Guard Air Station Cape Cod and US Marine Corps Strike Fighter Squadron VMFA-115. Projects currently in progress include US Navy VFA-106 and  US Marine Corps Strike Fighter Squadron VMFA-122.
