I’ve had a camera in my hands for as long as I can remember. Whether it was a disposable camera, a big Polaroid, or one of those point-and-shoot cameras everyone had in the 2000s, photography was always somewhere in my life. I just never imagined it would become something I’d want to seriously pursue.

I’ve done a few different things along the way. I’ve been a firefighter, and I’ve spent over 13 years serving on active duty in the military. Along the way, I’ve found something else I want to pursue—photography. Now I’m building ZeeeDuke Photography and seeing where it takes me.

My approach to photography is pretty simple: I photograph what catches my eye. I love capturing action, the in-between moments, and the little details that might otherwise go unnoticed. Whether I’m on the sidelines of a game, at an event, or just walking around with a camera, I’m always looking for the moments that tell a story.
