2018 B03 Downtown LA

I shoot my boys fairly often. There's been times when I've shot the other team too and then hunted down a mom or coach and handed them a business card. I don't do that anymore, surprisingly very few follow up with me. Pictures of your kid!? Once in a while someone will ask me who I am shooting and ask for me to maybe squeeze off a few of their kid, and even then they don't follow up. It ends up being just extra work I don't need. It uses card space, battery, hard drive space, I have to sort them out of my kid's batch... all that. BUT when the other team's coach approaches you at halftime, I'm more than willing. Manuel asked if I was shooting for the tournament, I said no and he asked if I would get a few of him and his team. I was headed to a baseball shoot after so I was wearing a Sloppy's shirt, and generating new business is why I wear it. That, and to give the umpires the impression I'm some kind of pro. Ha. He's checked in with me a couple times, so I'm happy to prepare a Preview Gallery. While all of the photos have been cropped, only a handful of photos have been polished for color, brightness, or whatever else they may need. All ordered photos will get the Sloppy's Treatment before they are sent out. I removed the duds, so if it’s in the gallery I believe it will be a good photo. I have a before and after below so you know what to expect. I don't have time to shine up everything beforehand. If you want to get your digital files, have me create a canvas, collage or something special, contact me directly. Here is 125 photos of Manuel's Downtown LA Soccer Club.
