Last weekend I had my first experience freelance shooting for a major league sports team. I couldn’t help but relish this new opportunity when they asked me to spend a game day at Toyota Park. I knew I wanted to capture the full fan experience – the human element of a stadium full of 20,000 passionate sports fans coming together for a single mission…to win.

Supplementing fan photography with commercial shots for print and online media kept me constantly thinking of how these photos would be utilized in the hands of my new client. I’m so eager to see how they will be used in furthering marketing initiatives for such an outstanding organization. Here’s some from a day of many firsts for me.
