From Baltimore Washington International

  • On approach to KIJD, Willimantic's Windham airport.
  • Another angle of Hanscom field in Bedford.
  • Nashua Airport in Nashua, NH.
  • This Citation is photographed at night underneath sodium vapor lights and specially balanced to reveal proper color. Night photos can give a vastly different look than daytime or evening photos, and can reveal a different side of a jet.<br /> <br /> Registrations removed via post processing.
  • Interior of a Citation. Having only one table out provides an asymmetrical look that enhances what is on the other table. Sometimes having all of the tables out can create a claustrophobic look inside of the smaller cabins, and we aim to make the cabin look as spacious as possible. Frames with tables on right, left, and both sides deployed are taken and the customer chooses which one they prefer.
  • Although the standard angles are always provided, some special shots are also included in case nontraditional looks are required. Creative opportunities are utilized whenever they present themselves. The results are used not only for advertising the particular jet but enhancing your charter's website or printed material.
  • This particular shot was taken using a fisheye lens. Sometimes fisheyes can give a more interesting effect, especially in the smaller cabins. Depending on the particular cabin it can be used with great effect.<br /> <br /> Lighting is also important in cabin interiors, and utilizing the plane's own lighting system allows for great control in revealing the natural ambience of business aircraft.
  • This Citation had only poor quality pocket camera photos, and I was brought in to replace these. The use of ladders and strategic positioning of the plane helps set it apart from the background. The angle also emphasizes the rakish quality of the Citation's design.<br /> <br /> Registrations removed via post-processing.
  • Interior of a Challenger. Challengers are bigger than most business jets and feature large, inviting cabins. Emphasizing that roominess and the features of a higher level cabin is key.
  • Interior of a Challenger. The large interior of a Challenger is perfect for group travel, and it also has a complete galley. Emphasizing this with dinnerware and showing the galley itself helps remind the customer what this level of aircraft provides.<br /> <br /> I bring my own equipment and supplement any necessary decorations with props I supply such as magazines, glassware, drinks, food, flowers, tablecloths, et cetera. If you have anything specific you want included in an interior, no problem - just bring it along on shoot day.
  • This Challenger shot is meant to inspire the viewer to come in, as it is usually followed by interior photos. Several shots are taken with doors open and closed, giving the client the choice of what they want to use.<br /> <br /> Dusk shots also allow use of the plane's active lighting to give it a "ready to go" appearance.<br /> <br /> Registrations removed via post processing.
  • Challengers are some of the largest business jets available. Larger jets present their own requirements in giving an inviting look and also emphasizing that it is larger than a Hawker or a Citation. This is where using a wider angle (but not too wide) gives that effect.<br /> <br /> Registrations removed via post processing.
