We were asked to photograph the Saegertown Spring Sports team photos for the yearbook. W also do individual shots and make....yes...memory mates(if you recall a year ago I was posting about how I had to google what a memory mate was!). When I do a team photo I like to think about them a little differently, though sometimes you just aren't in the zone. I do some traditional sort of things, but then usually get everyone to fall on each other, make faces or get up and run right at me. I don't believe in running an army like boot camp to get the pictures, I like to have as much fun as possible and try to get the people I'm photographing to have fun--people simply look better when they're having fun. Now most of these pictures of people making faces and jumping up in the air etc... make it to peoples walls--thats ok. If it creates an easier atmosphere to take the rest of the photos they are worth every penny to make. And sometimes people do like to get one or two of these for fun. As I was finishing up the orders today I thought I should share this picture of the 7th grade girls volleyball team and their coach---I think these girls are going to be fun to photograph over the next 6 years!
