Art Gallery — Overview
Because every athlete is human, and every human deserves to be seen.
Athletic photography opened a whole new world to me.
Quite frankly, I was not an athletic girly. I ran Track in Middle school, and played soccer at recess a few times, you know. But I was not the type to scream in the student section at games. So I picked up a camera instead.
Background actors still make an impact.
Balancing my own athletic pursuits and workload, I spent over 1000 hours photographing the athletes around me.
I loved the control sports photography gave me. Nothing was structured, I had full creative freedom.
I could be in the background, on the sidelines, and flourish in my wallflower moment.
Sending out pictures to students through Dropbox, I was able to show themselves their confident and powerful sides. Seeing them in their most raw and competitive states was INSPIRING, every time.
