It has been a long time since I blogged so there is a lot to catch up on. My first game for the High School season football was at West with the visiting team being Lincoln. I always love the start of the season as the light is just right before the game starts and you can turn out some fantastic photos. I recently reduced how many bodies I carry with me since I do this as a part time gig while

New Mascot, New Uniforms, 3-0 Record. Yeah that's right, a new mascot...well at least the mascot uniform. The Stanford Cardinals still have a Tree as a mascot but it looks different...what else that threw me off is Stanford's new uniforms for football! Yes they are ALL BLACK! So after I collected my self and got used to these changes, it was time to go to work! I forgot how much I rather

Once again, time to bring the camera out! It looks like I will be covering almost all the Raiders home games this year including Stanford. So, it is Football Magic time!!! It has been a while since I have shot football so I actually found it very challenging, especially when you forget the most important object from your camera bag, and that would be a monopod to help you hold up the monster

Just like every time you shoot and event, you need to do a check on all your gear. Today I am gearing up to go to Palo Alto to visit Stanford and cover the Bank of the West Classic. The gear line up includes the following Canon equipment: 5D MKII, 1D MKII and MKIII bodies, 70-200mm 2.8L, 16-35mm 2.8L, 400mm 2.8L series lenses, chargers, batteries, Think Tank International bag, a speed belt

MOT: American Le Mans Series, originally uploaded by KG Web Media.In May once more, I was fortunate enough to photograph the American Le Mans Series held at Monterey's Laguna Seca race track! I always enjoy this track since it has some amazing angles! The day was great, the weather was on the cold side but still nice. I carried my 400mm up and down those hills as well as my new Canon 5D MarkII.

Had the chance to photograph the last game for the Raiders for the season. Game was going fairly well for the raiders until Russell came in. I am not sure what is wrong with the guy and why he is in this slump but for his future I would try to shake out of whatever funk he may have. Here are some photos of the game I hope you can enjoy.This game I also tried shooting from the stands. The light

I went to shoot the Stanford game yesterday. It was an interesting and frustrating game. I got to the game and to the gate where you usually pick up passes and they where not there... so I had to go to another place and basically back track the same distance to the car for me to find out my passes where not there... frustrating but after talking to the POC we got everything squared away.

I ended up spending 3 days at MotoGP in Monterey. Crazy days, long hours, lots of traffic, and a lot of eye candy (my wife was thrilled about that). With no access to the pits during activity (seemed like most of the time) I hit the track hard to get the best possible photos. After getting the normal shots that everyone gets it was difficult to find a new angle so I had to think outside to box.

Menlo-Atherton High School visited Mills. Now baseball can be very repetitive so I tried to get a little creative.Trying to get things you usually don't see from just watching the game is a good way to keep yourself interested in photographing a sport that sometime can be boring.I don't mind watching the sport, live, but when you shoot it sometimes when it is slow the only thing you get it

When visiting Serra to photograph, it always seems to be a very photogenic school as far as sports goes. It seems like I come away with some fairly decent shots!The game went well.

I shot my first MLS game last night at Back Shaw Stadium in Santa Clara on Saturday. At first I did not know what to expect. I heard from some of my colleges that the light there is TERRIBLE for shooting but I think it is just as bad when shooting basketball... just a bit cooler though. So any way, I arrived at the stadium about an hour early so I can find parking and get set up since I had never

A couple of weeks ago I was walking around Mountain View looking for some wild art. It was a nice day with a few clouds out until I saw a huge shadow over me. Now I thought it was a cloud or something but it was way to dark. I looked up and saw this huge blimp by Airship Ventures overhead! Way cool! I believe that it lands at Moffett Field and its cost about $500 to ride!
