"Sports photography—often called 'Sportraits'—carries its own unique set of rewards. Capturing athletes at their best doesn’t just celebrate their dedication; it inspires others to push harder and pursue greatness. Having grown up playing baseball for much of my youth, I understand the passion, discipline, and early mornings that come with chasing a dream. That same mindset drives me in photography today. This is my new sport—one where I strive for excellence with every shot, aiming to showcase the heart, grit, and determination of every athlete I photograph."
