I don’t get to shoot hockey too often but I am always up for the challenge. So, when my editor asked me to cover a NHL game, I was glad to do so. This match up was the Detroit Red Wings as they hosted Vancouver Canucks at the Joe Louis Arena. Here are some of my images from the game. Enjoy!
I was blessed to be able to spend New Years Eve and New Years Day covering the Winter Classic and the Alumni Showdown.
The Alumni game was held at Comerica Park in downtown Detroit. While covering the Alumni game, my main goal was to capture the atmosphere and the surroundings with some action. Below are some of the shots that I came up with.
It is back, hockey is back in Hockeytown. Tonight I was blessed to be able to head down to the Joe Louis Arena as the Detroit Red Wings hosted the Boston Bruins in a preseason game. Here are some pictures from the game. Enjoy!
This past weekend I was blessed to be able to shoot the Columbus Blue Jackets as they took on the Detroit Red Wings at the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit. For this game I wanted to set up an overhead remote, so I was sure to arrive extra early. When setting up a remote there are a few essentials that I use.
The last game the Red Wings lost at their home rink, the Joe Louis Arena, was just days after Halloween on November 3rd, 2011. Since that time they have been able to win all of their 20 home games. Tomorrow they will be going for an all new record of winning 21 home games in a row. Here are a few images from some of the victories since November 3rd.
I had the opportunity to photograph the the Great Lakes Invitational for Michigan Tech University. It was cool to be able to do it because a few years ago I went as a fan. When I was there as a fan I think I watched the photographers more than I did the games, but I learned a lot by watching them. For example, I never knew they used strobes up in the catwalk, which is kind of ironic because this was the first time I set up a remote in the catwalks. Tip: Don’t look down!
This past week was a crazy one at that. Super busy but that is a good thing for sure. I started off on Black Friday shooting for Utah Valley University as they faced Oakland University. More of those pictures here. The last three games were for US Presswire. The 2nd game was the Nashville Predators at the Detroit Red Wings. More of those pictures here. The 3rd game I went to Eastern Michigan in Ypsilanti. EMU was hosting Michigan State University. More of those pictures here. And lastly I went back to Rochester, MI to photograph Tennessee at Oakland University. Turned out to be a great game! More of those pictures here. Also, be sure to click on “Read More” to see more!
How could it be any better? Photography, Hockey, 11/11/11, Veterans Day! This was the case last Friday.
