Team Photo Book

Feb 17th, 2009 Posted in Fun Photos - Sports | no comment »

I’ve been so thrilled with my latest camera, the Canon 50D.  I wanted a camera were that performed better in low-light situations (indoor, Halloween, etc) and that could capture Ben dribbling down a basketball court.  Boy, has it delivered. I’m still experimenting and make a lot of mistakes, but just about any shot is possible now.

My basketball shots this year have been 100 times better than ever before.  In past seasons, I would give up after a few games and just take video. Now, I have a collection of nice action shots. I even had enough to put together a photo book as a thank you to the coaches.  Check it out at

Titans Team Photo Shoot

Jan 25th, 2009 Posted in Fun Photos - Sports | no comment »

Taking pictures is by far my most favorite hobby. Getting a good photo makes me smile from the inside out. So, when the coach asked me to take Ben’s basketball team photos due to a scheduling conflict with our league’s photo day, I jumped at the chance to play photographer for a day. I’ve done a photo shoot for baseball before…very easy, outside, perfect lighting, etc.  An indoor gym can be tricky with shadows, glare, etc.  But they turned out great! Yay!!  Besides getting some good, more relaxed shots, this really is an efficient,  fun, easy and very affordable way to take team photos.  It takes me a couple of hours total to take the photos, edit and select the best shots and then post them on Shutterfly or Kodak Gallery where parents can either download the photos or order nicely priced prints in any size directly from site.  Go ahead a view the album: Pictures from Angela Windheim
