In Pursuit of the Perfect Aviation Photo with @jamescarrollla

Celebrate the Wright brothers’ first flight anniversary by exploring #aviation. To see more flight photos from James, follow @jamescarrollla on Instagram.

James Carroll’s (@jamescarrollla) first flight was from Tampa to Atlanta at age 6 — and the 35-year-old, Los Angeles-based photographer has been obsessed with planes ever since.

Where do you mostly shoot?

Runway 24 Right at LAX. People always ask me if I have airport access. I don’t. You can get so close.

Do you have a pilot’s license?

No, but I love to fly. I’ve been pursing a million miles — I have 600,000 now — and I hope to get it before I’m 40. I fly to London in a day just to get the miles.

Which makes for a better shot, takeoffs or landings?

Landings. Takeoffs are so far away — although personally I do like shots of the sky and the clouds and a little tiny plane somewhere in the frame. But landings are way more dynamic.
