Sports portraits

Over the last month or so I got to take the photographs of the “Player of the Year” in each of the Spring Sports. I used one flash and all except for the baseball portraits I was holding the flash in one hand while my camera was in the other. There were a lot of times I would find myself tangled up trying to find the best place to put the light. Sometimes there would be someone walking by and I would ask them to hold the flash for me. Overall I think they turned out alright and I think I am going to use this technique during the fall when I am taking senior portraits. Breaking tradition, oh yea!
