Eyes Wide Open at Penn Relays

Runners battle for position during the heats of the men's 4x400 during the Penn Relays at Franklin Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Friday, April 25, 2014.

A couple of weeks ago I made my way to Franklin Field in Philly to shoot some action at the Penn Relays. The atmosphere at the meet was by far the most intense I've ever experienced at a track and field meet. The crowd was really into pretty much every race that went off on Friday -- from high schools to masters. Throw in a beautiful spring afternoon and it made for a great day! 

Jim

Jim Mollosky, an endurance athlete and ultra runner, trains in Ithaca, New York on Thursday, April 10, 2014.

Last month I took a long overdue trip up to Ithaca, New York to catch up with my old friend and college roommate Jim. It was a quick but awesome trip. While there we ran some of the incredible trails Ithaca has to offer and Jim was kind enough to let me take some photographs of him training. Someone once said there is nothing quite like a friend from your youth. I was thinking about that line on the way back to Yardley that night. I hadn't seen Jim in over a decade, five minutes out on the trails and it was as if we were back on a run in college again. The trip also sent my running in a totally different direction and inspired me to find some trails around my own house. No more thumping the pavement for me. It just doesn't compare to running out on the trails. Thanks for everything, Jim. Looking forward to covering some more ground soon.

Off and Running

Runners charge for position at the start of the boys 4x800 relay during the New Balance Nationals Indoor Track and Field Championships at the Armory in New York City on Friday, March 14, 2014.

I headed up to New York to shoot some track and field at the Armory last weekend. Toward the end of the day some nice light was coming in from the windows above the track. This is one of my favorites of the day.

Congratulations Casey and Andrew!

We were honored to take a trip down to south Jersey on Sunday to photograph Andrew and Casey's wedding at Treno in Westmont, New Jersey. Casey and Andrew, along with their families and friends, are some of the nicest people I've met in a long time. What a great day! Thank you guys for trusting us to photograph your wedding!
