Well… it had been almost a YEAR since I stood on that sideline with my camera.
And dang, it felt GOOD to be back. ❤️🏈📸
Friday night we made a very last-minute decision to head out for Culpeper vs. Chancellor, and I am SO glad we did.
Culpeper brought home the WIN, 37–27!
After breaking my ankle last year and being away for so long, I honestly wasn’t sure what it would feel like walking back onto that field. But seeing everyone again, being welcomed back, hearing familiar voices, and getting behind the camera again felt like coming home.
And this time I got to bring JOHN with me and introduce him to everyone, which made it even better.
Since we didn’t decide to go until the last minute, we didn’t create a Session ahead of time for individual athlete signups or purchases. BUT… the gallery is READY!
Go take a look, find your athlete, and ❤️ your favorites!
If you’re interested in purchasing any of the photos from Friday night, just reach out to Susan directly for now.
We’re still getting all the shiny new pieces of Third Light Studios put together as we transition from Outgoing Portraits, including our new links, ordering system and sports pricing. It’s coming! We just aren’t quite ready to flip that switch yet.
And if you’re wondering what photos from the NEXT games are going to look like…THIS. 👇 We’re back.
And Friday night reminded me just how much I missed this.
