First College Team Photo

winger · Jan-23-2005, 07:54 PM

Well sort of, I did a team photo for the swim teams this fall, but that is what people would refer to as one of the "olympic sports" team photos were ok, I was pleased with this photo of the seniors

But I was asked to do the Women's Hoops photo...this is big time, I mean a revenue sport. So I was nervous, I asked for the assistance of a fellow Dgriner (and well I knew him much before this board) Doctorit and we set out for a team photo.
I went first for a safe shot

Then tried something with a ladder, just a differnt prespective on the same shot.

Then we came up with this one around the logo, which maybe the money shot for the weekend, but I will post another thread about that tommorow ( I shot a ton this weekend)

Erik was huge for me ( although i didnt get the concept that he was my assistant and should be fetching the ladder for me) but if nothing else he just helped me not be so nervous about taking this picture. (althought I did learn no more photos on game day....to many extra people around getting in my pictures) I totally stumbled into this gig(and have only been shooting a year with a lot to learn) but I know media relations really likes my work so doing great on this photo buts me in a better postion for next year.

So thanks Erik!!!!

(dont tell the woman that I heart you :) )

All four look good. I especially like the first of the swim team (neat idea), but the b-ball came out well, too. Congrats on getting your name REALLY out there.
