Putting Yourself Out There

A busy Thursday saw me running from one assignment to the next with little opportunity to slow down. With the hectic schedule, I had to remind myself several times to think outside of the box when it came to taking photos.

Fortunately for me, one of my assignments inspired me to do so. The young man pictured below is putting himself out there this weekend, delivering a sermon in a church his family has deep roots in. With him taking on such a personal challenge, I couldn't fall short with my photo taking. Luckily for me, he and his father were both willing subjects.

Try, Try Again

The good thing about shooting sports photography is that if you don't get a good shot one night, you're always going to get another chance at the next game.

Last week I posted a few photo attempts from a volleyball practice. I wasn't pleased with those shots.

Last night, I got the chance to try and redeem myself. I'm not going to go out and declare the session a success, but I will acknowledge I am a bit happier with these.
