Sports Photography Updates
This started out being a good night and ended a bad night. I started out going out to shoot some pregame stuff, and I ended up over by the Stanford bench, and asked one of the ball boys who had been with the team the longest. I was hoping there was a trainer or a […]
A day after the loss to the Ralston Valley Lady Mustangs, the A-West Lady Wildcats were at it again, hosting Bear Creek. Hope was the home team would bounce back from the shellacking they received from RV and take it to Bear Creek. As you can see in the photo above, it was not going […]
Since shooting high schools in the Denver area this school year, I am learning a lot about the histories and rivalries. In 2000 Ralston Valley opened to alleviate the student/teacher ratios at Pomona and Arvada West high schools. Almost immediately, Ralston Valley started winning the League Championships and would go to the State Playoff many […]
Wow! Did I bite off more than I could chew. Arvada West was hosting a 16 team Varsity Wrestling Invitational Tournament, and I thought, wow, 16 teams….lots of sales through Maxpreps!. So I headed over to Arvada West and walked into the gym. I got there a little late, so I had to set my […]
I went over to shoot the Pomona and A-West wrestling meet as practice because the following Saturday Arvada West was hosting a 16 team Varsity invitational and I wanted to get some practice lighting the gym for wrestling. It is a little different than basketball. My strobes were mounted on one side of the gym […]
On Wednesday the 16th of January I headed over to Ralston Valley high school to photograph the Mustang boys as they hosted Standely Lake high school. This was a great game for Ralston Valley. Standley Lake has a great player in junior Marcus Asmus, and Ralston Valley’s stand out player is senior Spencer Svejcar. RV […]
Ok, starting to catch up on the photos from the last week plus. I headed over to Arvada West on Tuesday the 15th to shoot the Arvada West girls as they hosted the ladies from Columbine High School. Since the game was two weeks ago, I will write just a brief bit about the game, […]
I headed up to Boulder on Saturday morning to shoot the Bruins and Buffs game. After beating USC a couple nights before, I knew this was going to be a tough match up for the Buffs. UCLA has always been a tough school. But, the Buffaloes have a great record at home and a great […]
My busy week continued with a trip over to the Apex Ice Arena in Arvada to shoot the game between the visiting Battle Mountain High School hockey team and the Ralston Valley Mustangs. I am still trying to get the best light coverage at this rink. My access is pretty good, and I have some […]
My busy week continued with a Thursday evening trip up to Boulder for the University of Southern California and University of Colorado men’s basketball game at the Coors Events Center. This was the home Pac-12 opener for the Buffaloes who had a hard start to the Pac-12 season with a heartbreaking loss to Arizona and […]
