Where Should We Take Our Athlete Portraits

February 24th, 2024

Hello there! Today, we are going deep into an essential part of athlete photography: choosing the perfect location for your portraits. Now, you might be thinking, "Well, that's straightforward enough!" But, believe it or not, it's a decision that's a lot more complex than you might initially think. But worry not, because here at Rob Desmond Photography, we are dedicated to making this process as smooth and hassle-free for you as possible.

When it comes to picking a location, there's one thing you should know about us: we are all about flexibility and adaptability. You want your portraits taken at the top of a mountain? No problem! Prefer a quiet, secluded beach? We can do that! Our aim is to deliver top-notch portraits that capture your athletic spirit in its purest form, regardless of where we are.

Now, let's get down to the nitty-gritty. What matters most to you, the athlete? Your home field or court might be an obvious choice, given the familiarity and comfort it provides. However, we are more than happy to explore other options that either hold sentimental value to you or offer a visually stunning setting. It could be a local park where you first learned to play, a hidden treasure from your early playing days, or even a simple basketball court with a unique character; we're here to bring your vision to life.

But what happens if your first choice isn't available? Don't worry! We're experts at making the most out of any situation. Whether dealing with public fields or private venues, we'll guide you towards a successful photoshoot.

As for logistics, we believe that it's best for the athlete or parent to handle securing permissions, handling waivers, or coordinating with venue managers. Your relationship with coaches and athletic directors is more personal, which can make this process smoother. But of course, we will be right beside you, ready to assist whenever necessary.

Ultimately, choosing the right location for your athlete portraits is all about telling your unique story and showcasing your personality. So whether it's on the field, at the court, or anywhere in between, you can count on us to work tirelessly to deliver portraits that you'll cherish for years to come.

Are you ready to create some unforgettable memories? Get in touch with us today, and let's work together to create athlete portraits that truly stand out! Let's capture the true spirit of your athleticism in a setting that speaks to your journey. Here's to creating magic, one portrait at a time!
