Hi... this is me... Red ~ Nebraska
What started as a hobby became a passion and then a way of life. I breathe photography, dream photography. From the moment I slip behind my camera, I see the world as a photo waiting to be taken, cherished, remembered forever. It is a calling and a way of living.

Based in Nebraska, Greg brings a lifetime of service, commitment, and quiet strength to everything he touches. His journey spans military duty, community leadership, and a deep‑rooted belief in honor, responsibility and making a difference.
From the moment he turned heads—like when his grandson Connor looked at a photo of him with a machine gun slung low and a cigarette dangling from his mouth in front of the field house, and said “Grandpa, you were cool!”—Greg has been more than just an archetype of toughness. He’s someone who shows up, owns his role, and inspires the next generation by example.
Rooted in a Midwestern work ethic and shaped by experiences that few get to wear with humility, Greg now channels his drive into veteran‑advocacy, community service, leadership, mentoring, or whatever else Julie and Eva can convince him to do. He lives in Bee, Nebraska, joined by a loyal companion, the newest Holloway, a beautiful brindle dog named Eva.
Those who know Greg well can attest that he would do anything to help his fellow man, and all creatures great and small. You can often see him taking a break from his granite carvings to take the dog for a walk, or just to watch Boston and Butter roll around on the floor!
