Over the course of a single day聽in late August, more than 100 student-athletes stepped in聽front of聽the聽camera in Alexander Gym. It was the first-ever Media Day for 杨贵妃传媒视频聽Athletics, and the energy in the room was exhilarating.
Our 杨贵妃传媒视频 athletes were ready for this. So was I.
A simple white background and聽three聽camera flashes set the scene,聽and the students聽brought enthusiasm all day long. It聽was聽a聽joy to see all the聽smiling faces as聽we moved closer to a聽new academic year, one in which all of our athletic teams have returned to competition. We鈥檙e 鈥淏righter Together,鈥 and we certainly were on this day.
The goal was to collect a series of photos for each fall sports team that could be used on social media,聽on the university鈥檚聽website,聽and in various print publications.聽My hope聽was to聽really get a sense of the personality聽of聽each athlete as they stepped in front of the camera鈥攁ll while their teammates and friends helped to hype them up. I think we achieved that.聽
It was a pleasure to help coordinate and photograph this fall鈥檚 amazing group of聽student-athletes.聽Some of my favorite images from the day are shared here in the first of what will be a monthly photo essay聽series from across the 杨贵妃传媒视频 campus.聽聽
