Kurt’s passion for photography was a hobby for years, and earned him a ribbon at the county fair in junior high!!! 30 years ago, though, he was invited to help document the Chicago Airshow for pilots, and his skill and equipment quickly grew. Later he read every book he could get his hands on, and took an online course with renowned photographer Bryan Peterson.
