Photographers that inspire me

Right now, I am currently staring at images, trying to see what the moment is and what is the story that is being told. Debating against my mind of which one deserves to be in a museum vs. which one does not. I can't wrap my head around it. So far I've reached out to two of my favorite photographers that do great work with capturing sports photography, whether it is commercial, portraits or documentary. These are some that I admire.

1. Sean Berry.

To me, Sean does an excellent job of capturing a moment and using light in a way that tells an interesting story and captures a special moment. Sean's work is very inspiring to me and helps me think outside the box.

2. Shawn Hubbard

Another huge inspiration. Shawn does an excellent job of finding the moment and capturing it in a way that's aesthetically pleasing to the human eye. His drive to capture a moment with natural and studio lighting produces that drive to shoot better.

I did get permission to use photos. 

3. Evan Siegle-

Evan Siegle is a team photographer for the packers. He has inspired me to be intentional with how I compose and how I tell the story better as a sports photographer. The way he composes images and captures the right moment makes him one of my favorite photographers in the game.

Often times in life we fear. These fears we have set our limitations. It becomes our comfort zone. When we stay in this comfort zone of ours we are not allowing ourselves to grow. Life starts to get repetitive and we start missing out on the wonders of our life. All for what? Comfortability?.  As long as you are uncomfortable, that means you are growing somewhere. I am constantly trying to make choices that put me out of my comfort zone. As we push our limits, we might often times find ourselves back where we started. Our comfort zones. That’s when we can choose to either go deeper and explore more or we can stay where we are and be content. Explore the unknown or try to find something new without exploring. We have to keep pushing our comfort zones if we want to go out and explore the unknown.  I’m not trying to stay comfortable.
