LAXHair Day

Always a great LAX hair day when shooting the girls game.   Spent Saturday at St. Stephens and St. Agnes high school in Alexandria VA to help cover and photograph the 27th annual Spring Fling for Inside Lacrosse magazine.   Great opportunity to shoot some of the best teams in the county and my 5th time at this event, one event I look forward to each spring.  

IL 20 Years of Championships

The championship cover has been iconic for 20 years of Inside Lacrosse.  Here is my cover shot from 2015.   Denver 10, Maryland 5. Published July 2015

Spring Must Be Around The Corner

First game of the season and 19 degrees at game time.   Early morning and a travel date to Charlottesville VA for the opening game of the season with a top 10 match-up of UVA vs. Loyola Maryland.   Not much of a game and I think I feel like the UVA team, took a little while to get back in the shooting groove. Great to be on the sidelines and thanks for Inside Lacrosse for the game slot.   

July Cover

Good news, found out today that one of my photographs from the NCAA D1 Philadelphia games was selected for the July cover of Inside Lacrosse.   The issue was just sent to print and will be out soon.  

Weekend in Philadelphia, NCAA Semifinal Notre Dame vs. Denver

Up early and a drive to Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia for the first D1 semifinal game featuring #1 Notre Dame vs #3 Denver.   Could not have a better day and the bonus was the grass field which kept the day very comfortable.   Turned out to be a great game with the Fighting Irish coming back in the fourth quarter to tie the game late and force overtime.

Inside Lacrosse May Cover

Photo mash-up to make the May cover of Inside Lacrosse.   1+1=1 on the current issue.   Great surprise to see my photo made the cover. 

Cover, Inside Cover

You ever wonder why a photo editor picks one vs the other?  Sometimes my favorites are never the final selected and other times we are one the same page.  Mini cover shot on the upcoming IL 2014 Yearbook with one of my images from the NCAA's at Lucas Oil Stadium Indianapolis. Was this basic photo selected because of the clear Duke name on the jersey or the clean background (for easy removal)? 

NCAA Indy

Quick flight from BWI to Indy to shoot the NCAA quarter-finals at Lucas Oil Stadium.   Southwest should have labeled the flight the LAX Flight, almost all on-board were going to Indy to for the NCAA's. Great trip and overall was happy with the game photos.   What a great stadium and the NCAA staff were all very helpful.  Guess it helps since the NCAA Hq is about 2 blocks from the stadium.   Here are a few from each game.   

May Madness Playoff Time

Lacrosse NCAA playoff time and the brackets just announced. Looking forward to the next few weeks.   Also, the May issue of Inside Lacrosse was just released and I have a few photos featured, including the cover (well 1/2 a cover..). Coincidence with Cornell and Maryland on the cover and this is the first round match-up.

Bad Light - Good Light

My day started in College Park with UNC vs. Maryland at noon and then to Baltimore to catch the second game of the Inside Lacrosse Face-Off Classic with UVA vs. JHU. The MD-UNC game was at noon and I was struggling with finding the right settings and the right position on the field. The second game in Baltimore was much better with the later afternoon sun allowing for some great shots. 

Great Day at College Park

Great weather in DC and the first warm day of the year with everyone outside and thinking Spring is here.   College Park was busy with softball, wrestling and lacrosse games all at the same time.  Great to get out and get my first lacrosse game in.  Check out more of the Penn State vs University of Maryland women's lacrosse game at Inside Lacrosse.com

Best of 2012

As we close 2012 it is good to look back and review my favorite shots from both from the games I attended and also from other photographers.   Inside Lacrosse magazine just posted their Best Of 2012 features and it was good to see a few of mine selected with the men's and women's features.

Another Lacrosse Season is Over

Another season comes to and end and I was glad to see a full page in the July issue of Inside Lacrosse from the NCAA game with UVA and Notre Dame in Philadelphia.  Football season will be right around the corner.
