Hands-On Help From a Pro Photojournalist — Right at Your Child’s Game

You’ve got a new camera and your kids have games on the calendar. But you’re photos aren’t living up to what you hoped for — or maybe you just want to improve your chops with sports photography.

Maybe your shots are blurry, you find yourself on the wrong side of the field, missing moments or maybe you’re just struggling in general. If so, we will find solutions to your problems with one-on-one in person photography lessons at a real game — your kid’s game.

My name is Sean — and I’m a photojournalist based in Columbia, SC with more than 25 years experience photographing sports for newspapers and wore services. Ive been working with the New York Times, Getty Images and The Associated Press for the last decade.

I’ll help you with where to stand (sit or kneel), what to look for, how to make the most of the gear you have and how to nail action shots. And we’ll look at making photos away from the main action, like a photojournalist would.

I’ll meet you an hour before the game and stay an hour through game action. I’ll be there to help and advise in real time on the sideline as you make photos. After the game, we will do a review on zoom.

Pricing:

$475 + travel from West Columbia, SC (99 cents/mile)

If you’d like more time on game day, additional 30 minute blocks are $75.
