As I have built myself up as a runner I have made many friends. Some of those friends are multi sport athletes. I began riding a bike. And I have for a while now toyed with the idea of taking on a triathlon. Then in 2025 after a year of big bike adventures which included riding around all of the 11 finger lakes in NY, culminating in a 100 mile ride (my… Read More
Even though I love running now I think my previous relationship with football and dreaming of being a sports photographer and collecting sports cards weighs in on this one. I also think that a photo of a sport like football really captures the action more than in a sport like running. A still image is challenging to capture the performance of running which is speed and movement.
I grew up loving sports. Mostly baseball, football, and basketball. Reading newspapers and magazines and seeing the amazing photographs that the sports photographers were able to capture was always something I loved. I never thought I would be a sports photographer. When I first started in photography sports was the farthest thing from my mind as a subject. But at some point I began to think about merging two things that I… Read More
Running has become my passion. But, I have always loved sports in general. I grew up loving baseball and football. And my appreciation for sports has grown over the years to encompass a lot that I never thought it would. I don’t photograph sports as much as I like to. It can be hard to schedule and it I something that needs to be planned out much more in advance than other… Read More
Lure Coursing. I love watching dogs do what they do. This is especially true when dogs use the full potential of what makes them dogs. Watching dogs run full speed. Legs moving as fast as can be in hot pursuit. This is a sight to see. Dogs chasing the lure around a predetermined course. Hot on the tail of the lure. The dogs are so excited and ready to go. Joy and… Read More
I love that Tangelwood Nature Center regularly holds trail races. This is really the only trail race that is in my backyard. And I love these trails. I have run trail races at Tanglewood twice. Once was my very first trail race. And I ran on the trails here when I first began to think about getting into running. These are the trails I most regularly visit. Equal parts beauty and challenge….

The German Shorthair Pointer is an active and agile dog. Very fitting that they are amongst the sporting group in the AKC. I love the active aspect of a German Shorthair Pointer. I am always looking for a dog that I could run with and this is a dog I could imagine sharing the joy of running with. The look of the German Shorthair Pointer breed is also something that I really… Read More
Last year I ran the 12 hour version of the Hills Creek Endurance Challenge. I had such a positive experience there that this year I really wanted to return to the event, but in a totally different way. This year I was back at the Hills Creek Endurance Challenge, but not as a runner as a photographer. As a photographer I love these loop course races. They present so many opportunities for… Read More
I grew up always being into sports. I loved sports. Loved to play sports, watch sports, talk about sports, and learn about sports. Guess what, I love photographing sports too. As has been the course through my photography experiences throughout my life photography has lead me to more knowledge. In this case photographing rugby has lead me to learn more about rugby. Rugby is a sport I wasn’t very familiar with and… Read More
If you grow up as a football fan one of the coolest photography experiences you can have is being on the field photographing a football game. It is fun to see if your instincts and anticipation for the sport allows you to capture good photos or if you are off the mark. I love sports of all types. I really enjoy watching people perform feats of athleticism. Being able to capture these… Read More
