A few weeks ago I was blessed to be able to photograph the NBA Preseason as the Atlanta Hawks took on the Detroit Pistons at The Palace of Auburn Hills.  This was a start to a very busy weekend for me which consisted of this game, the World Series, and one NFL game. Please, be sure to check out more pictures right here.

After finishing my last class for the day I was blessed to be able to head over to the Detroit Pistons practice facilities in Auburn Hills.  There I took portraits of the team and was also able to document media day.  The players were all super easy to work with and it was definitely a good time.  Be sure to check out the rest of the images right here.

March is an awesome time of year. We get to bump our clocks ahead an hour which means there is more sunlight in the evening, and that is something I love. It also means that we get an extra hour of sleep in the fall. I know it is tough now because we lose an hour, but just think of that hour you will get in the fall!

March also brings the greatest basketball there is.  March Madness is just plain awesome! However, that means basketball is wrapping up and there won’t be much more basketball to shoot. This is something that I don’t like. For me, basketball is one of my favorite sports to photograph. I am not sure why though. Maybe it is because I played for three years in high school or maybe it is because I have photographed more basketball than any other sport. Whatever the reason is, I was blessed to be able to shoot three games in a little over twenty-four hours this past weekend. I photographed my last Oakland Community College basketball game for the year, which unfortunately was their last game also since they did not move on to nationals. The other two games were the Pistons’ games as they hosted Toronto and Atlanta .

Now that school has started back up I find myself shooting less and studying more.  I don’t like it but just have to remind myself that it is for only 15 weeks. It also occurred to me that there are people in Nicaragua (and all over the world) that would love to go to college if only they could afford it.  It made me realized that even though I dislike it so much, that I am truly blessed to be able to have this hardship of all the work and stress that college brings.  Anyways, here is some recent work I was able to do, four basketball games in 30 hours.
