Creative hockey photography in Orillia, Ontario
Ahhh a little hockey photography! Melding my love of the sport with my camera is always a treat. My nephew's first year as an Orillia Terrier... we gotta mark the occasion with some "sick" hockey pics Uncle V.
He invited a bunch of his friends out for some shinny at Mnjikaning Arena in Rama, but before the festivities began we set up a quick 15 minute shoot before his hair got all messed up - Mom's rules.

Traveling light as always, I was working with a couple strobes and my new toy, the Rotolight Neo. Enlisting the help of my voice activated light stand aka my brother-in-Law, we managed to jam a series of shots into the tiny 15 minute window. We still had some shinny to play and those young Terriers waiting in the wings - well I could feel their glares burning behind me.

Getting away from the more traditional stand and pose type stuff - I wanted to incorporate some flow and movement. I think at one point I yelled out some direction like, "Gimme your best Dean Youngblood moves..." seemingly to a chorus of crickets.
Note to self, get a copy of Youngblood for my nephew's next sleepover... maybe fast forward through tea with Mrs. McGill.
