Capturing the moments that others may miss.

 

Growing up in central Pennsylvania means that sports are a way of life.  They are an expression of the physical art of competition and put a person's character on display.  When my brother, Adam, accepted a scholarship to play football at Temple University, I purchased my first ever professional camera so that I could take photos from the stands.  Most of the professional photographers out there are not focused on the offensive lineman and the game within the game that make some of the biggest moments in sports possible.  My passion is driven by bringing to light the battle within the trenches and capturing the small moments in the game that others may miss with their focus always on the ball.
