Travel Photographer Based In Dayton

Black Ankle Vineyards is a hidden gem nestled in the heart of the Maryland countryside. As you traverse the undulating hills and take in the panoramic views, you can already sense that an extraordinary experience awaits you. Established in 2002, this family-owned winery has quickly earned a reputation for producing exceptional wines that reflect Maryland’s rolling landscape. Mt. Airy is about 75 minutes north west of Baltimore Maryland but is a world away. We make Black Ankle an annual June tradition with the family.

A longtime goal of mine was to spend several days in Los Angeles seeing the sites and photographing my journey.  We have been to L.A. for only hours at a time before, so this time I was going all-in on my trip.  My plans included Manhattan Beach at sunset, Malibu at sunset, a couple studio tours, and plenty of hours plane spotting at LAX, Los Angeles International Airport.

In June 2023 my brother hooked me up with the new of of The Alexander Brown Building at 135 East Baltimore Street in Baltimore City Maryland. This former exquisite and historic bank building is set to be the home of Zander’s, a multi-room wedding reception and event venue in downtown.

In 2023 we took a family trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando Florida. We’ve been to WDW several times, but this was by far the most fun ever. In 1998, I worked at Disney’s Animal Kingdom in the Outdoor Foods group. Once again I put all my past experience to work planning and making this trip a success. I am a Dayton Ohio based travel photographer, and my Disney photos are below.

While we spent a few nights in the West Village, we did plenty of sightseeing. Below are some photos of The Oculus train station and mall at One World Trade. This magnificent architectural marvel is a beautiful addition to lower Manhattan.
