Portraits of the best high school athletes in high-school golf, cross country, volleyball, field hockey, and football this season. These shots ran huge on the front of Sports over five days with in-depth profiles of each athlete.
This portrait series was a lot of fun to do. I had the concept of showing “toughness” in these kids, so I matched it with tough looking industrial textures, and toned the images to match that feel. Having the creative freedom to shoot the thing how I wanted was fantastic. I got a lot of positive feedback from readers on this stuff….
You got it…they not only show the toughness in these kids,but the beauty! Well done!
Great Work in every way.
Bad Bad Bad ASSSSS Shit’s baller. Really nice. me like. What did you use to shoot this stuff? Also, sorry I never called you after football. My friend at JMU (James Madison University) who I hadn’t seen in a long time, invited me to go down for a few days and hang before he went home to North Carolina. I was going to call on my way when my phone died. Then I forgot until now. I’ll be home on Monday of this week so if you’re there, let me know.
