A few weeks ago I was approached by a Korean company to do some work for them. First off, I was impressed that they found me because it means the website and blogging are working! But I was also excited to be able to shoot internationally. The job was to cover Shin-Soo Choo as he and the Texas Rangers were in Detroit taking on the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park.

Everything did not go as planned, but in this field of work you have to be ready and able to adjust. I had arrived very early so that I could cover batting practice which was one of the requests I was given. However, the Rangers did not take take batting practice. Then Choo was not playing left field like he usually does. He was the designated hitter for this game, which meant that the only action I could get of him would be batting and base running. Fortunately for me, he started off the game with a single and scored during the first inning. Here are some more pictures of Choo!

I have been photographing professional sports for almost three years now. I have been blessed to be able to cover various baseball events, even including a World Series. However, I have never covered a regular season MLB game, that is until last night when the Chicago White Sox were in town taking on the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park in downtown Detroit. Enjoy!

This past weekend I was blessed to be able to photograph the World Series. I had been covering the Tigers in the ALDS and ALCS and each round became busier and busier. So, with the World Series I was sure to arrive extra early to beat the traffic. It was also important to arrive early so that we could cover the interviews, press conferences, batting practices, etc. Once arriving there, I met up with my colleagues. I was working with a team of four other photographers and two on site editors. My job was to photograph the batters head on from right center field during the game.
