CALIFORNIA FIRES
My thoughts go out to all my friends affected by this year’s fires. Godspeed.
EARLY 911 HEADLIGHT PHOTOS
Happy Halloween!
Thanks to Editor Pete Stout and 000 Magazine for the opportunity to photograph a feature on early Porsche 911 and 912 headlights.
Writer Mark Morrisey made the call, and expert collector Eric Linden provided the hardware. I shot everything in a mini-studio set up specifically to reduce reflections, yet still provide a controlled highlight. Thanks guys, that was fun!
EVERYBODY LOVES A PARADE
Porsche Club of America recently published my images in Panorama Magazine, with their coverage of the July 2018 PCA Parade in Missouri. The lead fireworks shot required a bit of pre-planning and a dash of luck and quick setup to capture.
Thanks to all for a fun time!
ICARUS FILM NOW LIVE ON PCA.ORG
Here’s the film I always knew I could make someday – if I just kept at it.
Thank you Jeff Gamroth, Cameron Healy, Team Rothsport, and PCA for your amazing support!
SPECIAL THANKS TO GUNNAR RACING
Thank you Kevin and Sharon Jeannette for giving me access to your camp, a crew and parking pass, and allowing me to store my gear in your trailer. I had a wonderful time and look forward to working with you again soon.

SUMMER IS FOR CAR SHOWS
That’s what summer holiday mornings are for. Rolling out of bed, driving your favorite vehicle over to the local gathering, seeing your friends, and checking out the scene. Enjoy your Labor Day weekend!
BONNEVILLE SPEED WEEK 2018
I’ve just returned from a trip to Utah’s Bonneville Speedway where I filmed Tom Woodford attempting a record breaking run in his 3-liter dual MFI turbo powered 1975 911 on the salt flats.
He’s now in the 175 MPH Club with 180 & 192 MPH times!
It was a great week hanging out with Tom and the crew, including Walt Walters – plus my good friend, “the original outlaw”, Gary Emory.
Look for more photos and a film in 2019.
Save the Salt!
LEAVING TOWN
One of my favorite cars to photograph left town today – to be delivered to its new owner. A Porsche 959, specifically this black on black example that was the last to leave the factory. It’s way beyond my price bracket. I just feel fortunate to have ridden in it and spent some time around it with my cameras.
PCA PANORAMA DOES IT AGAIN
Lead feature. Lead photo. I couldn’t be happier with this month’s issue of Panorama Magazine. It’s the first time my drone photos have been published in a printed piece. Thanks, Richard Baron.
I began using a DJI Mavic with Porsches in Mexico this spring and have been enamored with its capabilities ever since. Look for more aerial views in the future!
