Photography
Team photos and media day sessions for schools, clubs and athletic programs. I do simple team and individual shots, plus styled portraits that look great on posters and banners.
Team photos and media day sessions for schools, clubs, and athletic programs.
Photos built for your program
I work with teams and athletic programs of all sizes to create photos that fit what your team actually needs. The first step is a quick conversation about your program, your athletes, and what you want to do with the photos. From there I put together a plan that covers both team and individual shots.
For most standard sessions there is no cost to the school and nothing to budget for. Families order the photos they want once the gallery goes up, and yearbook images go to the school at no charge. I would rather make it easy for a program to say yes than put a line item in front of an athletic director.
On the day of the shoot, everything is set up and ready to go. I work through your roster efficiently while making sure each athlete gets quality photos. Once the session wraps, you get a full gallery of edited digital images with a print release, ready for announcements, programs, banners, social media, or whatever else your program needs.

From first contact to delivered gallery
We talk through your needs
A quick call or message about your team and what you want out of the photos. We'll talk about whether you want a standard session or a media day, how big the team is, and when you need everything. Then we pick what makes sense before anything gets scheduled.
We plan the shoot
Once I know what your team needs, I map out the session. Shot order, timing, setup requirements. You get a clear picture of what the day looks like before it happens, so athletes and coaches know what to expect.
Shoot day
Everything is set up and ready when your team arrives. I move through the roster efficiently without rushing anyone. Every athlete gets quality photos. Team groupings, individual shots, and anything else we planned for.
Gallery delivery
Edited images delivered through an online gallery. High resolution, print release included. I work with one central contact, a coach or team parent, who shares the gallery with the team. Use the photos however your program needs them.
Pricing
Most team shoots cost the school nothing
For a standard team session there is usually nothing for the program to pay and nothing to commit to upfront. I shoot the team, edit the images, and publish the gallery. Families then order the photos they want. Yearbook images go to the school at no charge.
Media day sessions work differently from one program to the next. Some are quoted to the school or a booster fund, and others run the same way as a standard session with families ordering. Banners are quoted separately, and when they come out of a shoot I am already doing, that quote covers the use of the photo so there is no second sitting fee.

FAQs
A few things coaches and athletic directors ask most often. If you have a question that is not here, reach out and I will talk through it with you.
Standard sessions focus on clean team groupings and individual shots with natural or minimal lighting. Media day sessions add professional lighting setups, styled backdrops, and individual portraits that work for posters, banners, and social media. We can talk through what makes sense for your team.
It depends on the session type and what your team needs. For standard sessions, each athlete typically gets 2 to 4 individual shots. Enhanced sessions include more poses and variety. We will plan this out before the shoot so everyone knows what to expect.
All final images are delivered through an online gallery. For team photo shoots, I work with a single central point of contact, usually a coach or team parent. Once the gallery is ready, I send the link and all of the information to that contact, and they share it with the rest of the team.
Yes, at no cost to the school. Yearbook images are part of how I work with a program rather than something billed separately. Tell me the format and deadline your yearbook staff needs and I will get them what they need.
Yes, and I can handle the banners for you rather than handing back files. Media day sessions are designed for exactly that, and I design and print finished banners on scrim vinyl with grommets, ready to hang on a fence line or a gym wall. See the sports banners page for how that works. Every image is also delivered in high resolution with a print release, so you are free to print other pieces yourself.
I can handle small groups all the way up to full teams or programs with 50+ athletes. With the right planning and setup, I can work through large groups efficiently while still making sure each athlete gets quality photos.
Yes. I work with any group or activity that needs team or individual photography, including band, drama, choir, dance, equestrian, and more.
For a standard team session there is usually nothing for the school to pay. I shoot, edit, and publish the gallery, and families order the photos they want from there. Media day sessions vary by program, sometimes quoted to the school or a booster fund and sometimes run the same way with families ordering. Banners are quoted separately. We will sort out which approach fits your team before anything is scheduled.
No. Team photo sessions are scheduled for a specific date and time, and it is up to athletes and their families to ensure they are present. Due to the planning, setup, and scheduling involved, I cannot offer refunds or retakes if someone misses their scheduled shoot.
The earlier the better, especially leading into the fall season. Scheduling at least a month in advance helps me secure the date and make sure everything is ready.
