The USBC Masters is one of the most prestigious bowling tournaments in the world, and in 2023 it was held at Thunderbowl Lanes in Allen Park, Michigan. As a photographer, I was lucky enough to work the tournament for USBC, and I’m excited to share with you how I captured the action.

Yes, I may be a week late, but sometimes that is just how things go. This past week I kicked the year off with a Red Wings game and Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, MI. As a sports photographer, you get to see all different kids of sports. Hockey is one of the fastest moving games. I always enjoy the challenge it brings! To give a glimpse, be sure to check this post out and watch the video from EVF (Electronic View Finder).

Back in November I was able to work with Rutgers Athletics as they went up against the Michigan State Spartans in East Lansing.
One thing I enjoy about sports photography is the challenges it brings. It could be the physical challenges of having to chase golfers around a golf course, or it might be mental as you have to over come the cold weather and put it back of mind to focus on your task of getting the shot. This game was the latter, although there was no snow, it was definitely cold enough for it. Here some of the images from the game. As always, it is great to work with Rutgers.

This Fall I had the opportunity to photograph Cross Country for the first time, and I was able do it twice!
The first opportunity was a nice warm day in September. The University of Michigan was hosting the Big Ten Preview. I was blessed to be able to work again with the great staff and teams from Rutgers.
The next opportunity brought a whole new set of challenges, SNOW! The wind chill was below 10 degrees Fahrenheit and there was a few inches of snow. The atmosphere there felt more like a cross country skiing event, and definitely not running. Needless to say, I welcomed the challenge to photograph the NCAA DIII championship at Michigan State University for NCAA Photos. It was great to be able to work with them again and capture this event and the Olivet Comets were excellent hosts! Enjoy!

Read more “NCAA Cross Country: Big Ten Preview”Last month I was able to work with NCAA Photos once again to capture the NCAA Division I Women’s Water Polo Championship at Canham Natatorium on the University of Michigan campus in Ann Arbor. Previously, I had worked with the NCAA to photograph the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament First & Second Rounds at U of M. It was good to be back on campus and working with the NCAA. It was a unique challenge as water polo is not a frequent sport here in Michigan. Being that I was working for the NCAA, it requires capturing the action, but also the atmosphere before and after. This would include things like the team arrivals and celebration afterwards. Without further ado, here are some of the images from the day. Hope you enjoy the images. Enjoy!

This year, there was six men. I had previously photographed this event in years before, including in 2016. It was a beautiful event and I enjoyed the opportunity again. I was glad for the wonderful weather we had that day, as it made for some nice lighting indoors. It was a great time working with everyone and hope you enjoy the pictures.
You can see some of these pictures and more at Detroit Catholic.
