An Editorial Session for an athlete is a “pro experience” where a story is being told through photographic images highlighting their strength, hard work, and skill.

This is a custom shoot in my studio with professional lighting techniques, dramatic posing and angles, serious or tough expressions, and clean backgrounds. You choose the focus of the session; sports, dance, or anything you are passionate about.

Things to consider when preparing for your session:

• decide on a focus - your style, athleticism, or talents - and bring all uniforms, clothing, and the appropriate gear/equipment to your session

• looks could include sports gear, dance costumes, eye black, athletic wear, logo/team wear

• complete your outfit with clean footwear, cleats, skates, tennis shoes, etc

• include accessories like sunglasses, balls, bats, hats/helmets/head gear, awards, trophies, all other equipment

• PACK EVERYTHING, even if you aren’t sure we will use it so we have it available if we are inspired with a unique idea

Consider these three concepts when planning for your session:

1. Gelled lighting, fog, water, and fire all enhance the images we create.

2. Poses and lighting will highlight your strength, set the mood of the image, and serve as a creative way to tell your story.

3. Expression is typically more serious, tough, or intense.

The Editorial Session is a great complement to an outdoor session or it can also stand alone as a collection of images in a beautiful custom Album or as a set of Metal Prints that create a very cool wall display.

Of course, you will receive digital versions of the images you order to share on all your social media platforms and wow your followers.
