From the Film Era to the Sideline.
My love of photography began in the 80s, shooting on a manual Canon AE-1. While the gear has evolved, my passion for photography hasn’t: Now, I’m there to capture the raw, unscripted intensity of the game.
After transitioning to digital, I found my true calling on the sidelines. What started with high school gymnastics quickly expanded into a decade-long pursuit of football, baseball, soccer, basketball, and CrossFit. Having spent over 10 years mastering the timing and grit of amateur sports, I founded The Sideline Lens to bring that experience to the collegiate and professional stages.
What I Deliver:
Pro-Level Action: High-speed, high-resolution game coverage using flagship Canon gear.
Creative Edge: Media days and promotional content designed to build team brands.
Speed: Pro-grade workflows ensuring rapid delivery when the news cycle is hottest.
Based in Columbus, Ohio, I deliver high-impact photography and video for teams at all levels and am available for media assignments.
