Gleis has provided photographic images for Heads of State and Royalty world-wide – including such countries as United Arab Emirates, Brunei, Japan, South Korea, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Dubai, Cameroon, Johor, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Jordon and China. His expertise lies in photographing the most exclusive, world-class private jet aircraft, including both exterior and interior photographs of a very diverse range of VIP aircraft and helicopters.

The decadence displayed in these photos is absolutely revolting, i hope that is the intention of the work!
Money can’t buy taste, clearly.
These are such hideous interiors, but I can’t look away. It’s like looking at a car wreck. Ugh.
beautifully done- not easy getting a good shot in a jet that gives that feeling of spaciousness in a confined area…
These are shamefully ostentatious – borderline grotesque, even. I can perfectly appreciate a want for excess and ultra-luxurious comfort when one’s privileged enough to own a private aircraft; but, for God’s sake, don’t attempt to outclass classiness itself. These appear to have been created by somebody who thought that stretching Art Deco to the limits of its definition and mixing it with 1950’s Sci-Fi fascination, Las Vegas penthouse glitz and general douchebaggery would be a good idea. This, you severely-clueless rich tossers, will only get you laid by Snooki.
Do it right. Call Ralph Lauren Home and tell them to do it with some trademark restraint and elegance. Then, my flush and liquid friends, and only then, will the nubile Swedish honeys come running in droves, you sick bast**ds.
