p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Professional Beach Volleyball


Last week while attending the Sports Shooter Academy I shot the AVP Huntingbeach Open. Here are a few of my favorite shots. Would love to here +/- on the photos. Most were shot with either a 70-200 or 300 f4 (Nikon).

Not with that background. Unfortunately a few minutes after I got the images I did with that background, they started setting up vendor tents in front of it and it completely ruined the background and I had to go find a different court to shoot at.

I like #1 and #4 best.

AVP was in NYC today where they set up a court on Pier 25 in Manhattan. It was over 90F.

The D5 certainly hums in your hands. The startling clarity of your subjects works so well because of their amazing level of fitness. Too many faves but 5 really blows me away. You not only got her entire body in the frame but at a perfect angle to get her sharp from hair to toe at f 3.2. The timing of the ball at such extreme compression I have never seen before. Probably the best volleyball set I have seen.

Wonderful stuff !

I assume you got to know my pal and mentor Matt Brown ? He's the greatest and hardest working photographer I know.

I do. He is a great guy! This week I have been following his pics while he was shooting at the College Baseball World Series.

Russ...nice work. VB is a tough sport to shoot and to do it in the hot sun with the reflections off the sand has to add a bit more to it. You handled the harsh sun and shadows quite nicely.
