SPORTRAITS - "These are not your parent's high school team photos."

I've always said, "Gone are the days of kneeling with your helmet." I may have been premature with that comment when I initially made it a few years ago, but I am seeing this gaining momentum more and more as time goes on. Players are wanting more "edgy" photos and to have them look more and more like the drastic images they see in publications like ESPN Magazine.

Interestingly enough, getting a "SPORTRAIT" in this style is only slightly more expensive than a traditionally posed photo. The main difference is that each one is a custom individual photo shoot. This usually takes a little more time since the shot has to be exact in order to achieve the effect that is desired. Here's one example of a recent shot.

If an entire team wants the exact same "look", then we simply set the shot up and block 3 or 4 hours in order to accommodate each player. If you're interested in discussing something like this, contact me. There are endless possibilities in this type of shot. These can be produced in huge poster format with the team logo (top corner) and player name and number (across the bottom) - similar to a professionally produced sports poster of a pro athlete.

Penn Trafford vs McKeesport

McKeesport defeated Penn Trafford 31-28 in overtime after Penn Trafford tied the game in the final minutes with a 95yd kickoff return for TD, then recovering the onside kick and tying the game with a FG as time expired.
