......Sometimes a photo or a series of photos are destined to be more that just a photo. Like the old saying goes, "A picture is worth a thousand words." I believe this to be true in more ways than one. I love the art that a photo can become and I enjoy the interaction with the riders and being able to share the experience through the photos I take.. I love the sport of motorcycle racing and as an Ex-Professional racer I have that racers eye and find myself in the right place at the right time. With several photos published in several magazines and dozens of professional websites, I strive to deliver better photos each and every time I shoot at an event. The sport has given me so much over the years, I am grateful that I am having the chance to give back to the sport I have lived my entire life in and around......
Here are a few of my websites
Television
Mostly I would rather be taking photos and traveling the country but recently with surgery I have had time on the couch! Sucks big time and I hate being Lazy but How can I miss a few races like, Supercross, Motocross, Areancross, GNC Racing TV on outdoor life network, and much more I dont really have much time to watch TV so I DVR it and watch it later. Got to love DVR Because I can watch a show in half the time and get back to doing what I love to do.
I must admin though a tv show with a good story is like a good movie that just keeps on going. Lost, Heros, Call me Crazy but I love Music and American Idol is fun to watch. I Especially love the people that put their hear and sole into singing and they have a great story to get where they did. It always boils down to a good story
Books
The book of Life, the life I live and have lived. With the ups and downs and broken bones and broken dreams nothing is better than waking up in the morning on a weekend and knowing there is something out there righting your story. And you are living it, you make the choice and you get there and find your not the only one reading the same book.
It happens, it's all about having a passion in something and pursuing your dreams. It's my book and it's not done yet, but I am happy where is has taken me so far.
Heroes
Destry Abbott!!!! the King of the Desert. He was a friend of mine growing up he has always been a Great Guy and is as gifted as they come. Bubba Stewart because he can do what no one else can. Ricky Carmichael because he is the man Championship after championship WOW got to respect that guy.
Mile Laraco because he is still going and still in the top 5.
About me: I Love racing motorcycles, I have been racing motorcycles all my life. I first started when I was 4.
In August of 2005 I had a major crash that put me in the hospital for several weeks, and it kept me from even riding a motorcycle for all of 2006.
My passion has always been motocross but at a young age I grew up in the Desert and well that's what I did really well at. So motocross was just something I did on the off weekends. I never really got great at motocross, but as the Desert was my domain I earned my first pro title at 15. Now that in this day in age you can't even be a pro anymore until your 16, but back then that rule didn't apply.
SO the last 6 years or so I have competed in the B Class and Open class in Nebraska & Iowa Motocross races and ocassionally travel to a desert race. I always liked to be the under dog, and I have always liked to have a challenge, so I remained on my KX125, while everyone else rode a 450F or a 250F.
I still had fairly good luck on the old 125 and won several races a season on it despite racing against 450F and 250F's in the open classes.
So to sum it up I love the underdog and love it even more when they win....
Who I'd like to meet: I love to race motorcycles but due to my last injury, the time I spend at the track is as a spectator - photorgapher. I Love to take pictures, especially at the races.
