I never made a dime at this. I love taking pictures that capture the moment as it is. I am basically saying I have no idea how to set up any type of lighting or groups of people.
My kids play school sports and I love taking pictures of the games. In 2010 the varsity high school coach let me have sideline access to the football games so I am blessed to be out there. So many parents help behind the scenes I feel this is the best way that I can also help out the team.
I also give my images to the team because some kids parents can't make the games, or they are in single parent homes ,or just don't have a camera that can take low light sports images. As a child I grew up with just a Mother, Uncle and brother. I am blessed that my Uncle took most of my pictures\8mm movies growing up, so I am returning the favor in someway or another to the other kids.

I shoot with Canon EOS Rebel T2i

Canon: 18-55mm 3.5-5.6
Canon: 55-250mm 4-5.6
Canon: 85mm 1.8 USM
Rent 70-200mm LIS II

Power Shot S2 IS

Most images are with the 85mm 1.8 because it 's my best lens. The T2i is working out fine right now. If Canon updates the 7D or 60D maybe I will trade it in or keep the T2i as a 2nd body.
