A Few Words About Me

News

My New Website

Well, it was about time.

I have update my website (and more importantly) my online portfolio. The volume and quality of my work has grown and the new website reflects that growth.

I hope you like it.

The Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine and Research Institute

In addition to Dominion Images, I am the Chief Photographer at this exciting and innovative facility. I couldn't be more proud of my association with such an amazing group of students, faculty and researchers.

I held my first 35mm camera when my neighbor Steve Raeford (he was a professional photographer) let me play in his studio. I was hooked. The lenses and lights, the smell of the darkroom and the magic of an image being created on a piece of paper. I knew what I wanted my life to be. I was 14.

After heading off to the University of Oklahoma to learn about being a real photographer, I landed my first full-time job at the NBC station in Roanoke, Virginia. I covered all the basics of local news- accidents, fires, City Hall and courts. I was soon promoted to Chief Photographer. It wasn't long before I was offered a job in Washington, D.C. at Potomac Television.

Working for Potomac exposed me to big-time news gathering and broadcasters from around the world. The BBC, Le Cinq, TV Tokyo and many local stations from across the U.S. were clients. And from there, I went to NBC News.

I was assigned to The Capitol covering both The House and Senate. The Supreme Court. Federal Court in DC. And The White House. Along the way, I have been blessed to have my work noticed and have received a few awards, including a nomination for an Emmy.

But my passion has always been with still photography. Upon leaving TV, I began Dominion Images Photography. I have and continue to work for Fortune 500 companies (Merrill Lynch, Kroger, UPS, Hilton, Chick-fil-a and others) as a commercial photographer. My editorial work appears in various newspapers, national and international magazines and websites.

What does this mean to you? I have experience. And for me to be a professional this long means I keep current and innovative, staying up-to-date with the latest technology and the best of trends. Much in today's photography is trendy and in a matter of months, will looks as dated as your parent's high school yearbook. Stay away from trendy and be a trend-setter.

From a simple business portrait to corporate annual reports to marketing and advertising, let's talk to see if there is a way Dominion Images Photography can help with your photography needs.

If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough -Robert Capa

(Ironically, quoted before he got too close to mine that killed him

while covering war in Indochina.)

We make pictures. At the end of the day, we create something potentially significant that did not exist at the beginning of the day. We go forward, despite the uncertainty. ― Joe McNally

In the competitive marketplace, it's good business to trust experience and talent. Make sure your business is treated professionally. By a professional.

Editorial photography is at the heart of all my work. From regional magazines to national and international newspapers, I continue to cover the news.

How you look isn't as important as who you are and how you feel. I capture the best of you so you can show that to the world.

A drone camera platform is an amazing tool. If you need those images, make sure you hire a licensed, insured and experienced photographer.
