A day in a life of a Sports Photographer
If I am attending a sporting event then obviously some of the day is spent travelling to the venue. You have to arrive early at the venue and decide where to position yourself. It’s never easy to decide because you just never know what or where the major moments of the game will occur.
During the game you have to be focused 100% and cannot afford to miss any moment because something could happen at any time.
After the game you process your images to see if any will make the back pages of tomorrow’s newspapers!
