ARTISTIC TOOLS
Sony Cameras, Lightroom and Photoshop
I have always shot on Sony, so right now for my photography, I am rocking the Sony A7R4. This is a 61 megapixel camera and is perfect for me blowing up my photos. For post production, I use Lightroom 95% of the time.
Q&A
Ever since the beginning, I have always told myself that I want to take photos that others have not even dreamed about. I want to be different, I want to push myself, and I want to put myself in extreme photography situations that make me nervous.
I just finished up taking a flyover photo of a B2 Stealth Bomber at the Rose Bowl. It was a once in a lifetime photo and I am currently looking into capturing more flyover photos around the county at huge sporting events.
I love to hang out with my wife and kids, golf, swim, and have recently begun getting into cold plunging.
I wouldn’t change anything about my younger self. I went into an educational career for 11 years, found photography, and left it all to pursue my dreams. I would just encourage my younger self to be confident and to break outside of my shell.
One of my favorite influencers/photographers is Paul Seibert (@beholdingeye on Instagram). He is also an aerial photographer based in New York City that captures some incredible photos of the city.
