by ^1pen| My passion and my job. I'm a sports photographer specializing in winter sports such as hockey and speed skating. I've photographed many pro/national/world/Olympic teams and major winter sporting events. This whole experience was a happy accident, and I'm admittedly still learning as I go along, but as with all great surprises in life...I love it, I live for it, and I couldn't imagine doing anything else. |

  "You have to have a sense of humour to be a sports photographer. Really. Because crazy things happen and athletes make the goofiest expressions. They also chew gum, munch nonstop on their mouth guards, squint, drool, spit, breathe with their mouths wide open, fiddle with their gloves and chin straps, unzip their hockey shorts all the way to the crotch, and yes, cover up their faces with their hockey sticks. Photographing a professional hockey team is like being married to sixteen different men who all leave the toilet seat up and a bunch of beard stubble in your sink." -1pen.   |
| Due to Winter Sports Season, October - March, and the demands of my career during this time, I may not be able to answer each comment, favourite, or watch directly. This next season will be particularly busy as ramp-up year begins for the 2014 Winter Olympics. Please know that I value your support and friendship very much and want to thank you in advance as a result. I do read every comment and try to reply when I can, but cannot guarantee it during the season. If something requires my immediate attention please leave me a note, and I will be more likely to see it. Thanks so much!! *1pen |
