I’m a former Captain in the Army and have been to Iraq and Afghanistan; I have worked in the information technology field for over 25 years, mostly as a systems administrator. My company Three Point Shots once provided some of Kentucky’s best sports photos.  I used to photograph University of Kentucky men’s basketball through my blog WildcatWorld.com and was the official photographer of the Kentucky High School Athletic Association (KHSAA) Boys’ and Girls’ Sweet 16® (2018, 2019, 2020).  I was also the official photographer for a number of other KHSAA state championship events to include volleyball, bowling, cheer, dance and archery.  I ended my relationship with the KHSAA in 2021 after a payment dispute and I completely stopped photographing high school sports commercially for individuals and teams in 2021. 

The name of my company came from a love of basketball.   A three-point shot (also known as a three-point field goal, three-pointer, three, or trey) is the most valuable of all shots from a basketball court.  It is a field goal in a basketball game made from beyond the three-point line, a designated arc surrounding the basket. A successful attempt is worth three points, in contrast to the two points awarded for shots made inside the three-point line.  The name reflects my purpose in capturing those most valuable of sports memories at all levels of competition.
