Boerne High School Softball vs Wimberly

Softball is always fun to shoot, the field is small and the Boerne High School field offers great access...if you can shoot around the coaching staff. ;-)

Lots of great pre-game portraits and some nice action as the Boerne High School Lady Greyhounds took on Wimberley in Senior Night play.

I'm alway mesmerized by the fast-pitch delivery and control the ladies can put on that big bright ball.

Plays like this make the game even more enticing for a photographer.

Boerne-Champion Champion Baseball vs New Braunfels Cougars

Finally had a chance to shoot some Boerne-Champion baseball.  Good weather and good light for most of the game.  With two seniors graduating this year, most of the Champion team is composed of juniors and sophomores.  This was a make-or-break game for a playoff spot for both the Chargers and the New Braunfels Cougars.  Lots of big hits and big catches by both teams with Champion getting the win.  As usual I was mostly focused on great portraits and being in the right place for action shots, like this one:

Marcus Cunningham - Boerne, Texas

Just got back from vacation and was going to post some things, but I think it will wait...

I didn't know Marcus or the other boys, but I was lucky enough to know Shelly Beck, who was mentoring Marcus and asked me to shoot these photos at a Boerne High School football game last season. Sometimes a job turns out to be more than just a football game...
