Been holding on to this news for a bit but I think now is a good time to share. I have been brought in as a contract photographer for Blue Origin starting with NG-3! I am incredibly excited for this next step in my career and the opportunity to do more ambitious and creative work with rockets.

Honestly, if I was 50 years younger, this sounds like it would’ve been an incredible job. The best of luck with it, I can’t wait to see some of your photography from your job.

Going for this opportunity was quite nerve racking at first, as it meant giving up certain aspects of covering launches as media, however what I gain has already outweighed that tenfold, and I cannot wait to share some of what I’ll be creating with you all.

Oh, the American aerospace manufacturer and suborbital spaceflight services company owned by Jeff Bezos (Trump’s bald Wernher von Braun) 🤔. Hooray for you 😬.

I hate to say this, but it's all going to go up in smoke! Hopefully. ;-)

I have mixed feelings. We must use the money TO FIX Earth first. Common sense, remember. NO AIR IN Space. premature . Earth must be first.

Glad you have a job. But taking pictures of workers life-force being shot into space by a wealth hoarding Centi-Billionaire is something to consider. I hope you get a good shot of it exploding.
