Chasing: Racing Life in England and Ireland
11 x 13in, Hardcover with dust jacket, 78pg
I am very pleased and honored to announce that my book “CHASING: Racing Life in England and Ireland” is available to purchase HERE.
This is a 78 page hard cover (with dust jacket) collection of my favorite photos from the incredible 5 months I spent riding out in jump racing yards around England and Ireland.
Tony McCoy, Noel Fehily, Paddy Brennan, Sam and Willy Twiston-Davies, Hello Bud, Master Minded, Imperial Commander, Cheltenham, Aintree, York, Catterick and many others are just a few of the names, faces and places that grace the pages of this book.
I am extremely biased when I write this, but this collection is something special. Most racing photographers are simply racing photographers. They miss the behind the scenes, the day to day grind and the love that the lads have for their horses. That is something I strove to capture because I lived it on a day to day basis.
Like I said, I am extremely proud to be able to share the things I saw with others. Many of the images have never been shown to anyone prior to this publication, and each is a memory of mine that brings back fond emotions.

Eyes of the World on Louisville
The eyes of the world were on Louisville this past weekend. Well, the eyes of anyone who cares about horse racing, anyway…
Bull Riding in Lancaster SC
Sometimes as a photographer, you have to find something outside your norm that pushes you as an artist and a journalist. When I found myself with nothing better to do on a Friday night, I decided that a local rodeo was the perfect assignment to point my lens at.
Morning til Night: Petit Le Mans 2011
Road Atlanta, a gorgeous circuit in the rolling hills North of Atlanta played host to the biggest and best sports car teams from around the world for the 14th annual running of Petit Le Mans on October 1, 2011.
Indycar on the Streets of Baltimore
The Indycar Grand Prix wrapped up an eventful weekend on the streets of Baltimore on a hot Sunday afternoon. With vendors selling delicious local crab cakes and cold beer, the ethanol powered cars revved up their engines one more time for the weekend’s racing finale. Penske’s Will Power dominated the brand new street circuit with ease despite a lengthy yellow flag period.
American Le Mans Roars around Baltimore
My last adventure with the American Le Mans and Indycar circuit was a much different one to what was running in Baltimore this past weekend. The mid-atlantic city has been mired in a traffic nightmare with construction efforts underway for months, all in preparation for a weekend of racing the likes of which the city has never seen before. Despite some very serious and frustrating growing pains early on in the weekend, Baltimore can be proud of their weekend in the racing lime light.
Sun….Sprinkle….Monsoon. ALMS @ Mid Ohio!
Tucked away in the rolling hills and corn and soybean farmland of Ohio sits the Mid Ohio Sports Car Course. A rolling, sweeping. twisting, turning 2.4 mile track that was the center of attention this past weekend for the American Le Mans series and the Indycar circus.
Kicking Cancer’s Ass: 24 Hours of Booty 2011
I owe much to the 24 Hours of Booty. As an intern photographer at the Charlotte Observer back in 2009, I made 24HOB my personal photo essay for the summer. I developed a very deep and lasting relationship and love for this event from my experiences covering the charity ride. 24 hours of booty is demanding. It is exhausting. It is fun. It is colorful. It is emotional. I love it.
(From the Archive) Let’s Go….Lawn Mower Racing?
This easily goes down as one of the strangest assignments I have ever been given and certainly one of the strangest things I’ve ever seen.
