Collin|Rock Canyon High School|Roka Studios
Posted on July 26, 2010
Yesterday I had the chance to photograph Collin’s senior session at The Edge Ice Arena. I always love to do something different and Collin sleeps, breathes, and bleeds hockey. When I met them at the arena I asked them if they had anything in mind. They told me that with all the years of playing hockey they had plenty of cookie cutter professional shots on him on the ice, posed in front of the goal, etc. So I opted for something different and we went into the locker room. I wanted some hard, directional lighting to capture a stronger tone. I used two off camera flashes for most of the shots. One flash behind him and another on a stand to the right of him. I love the dramatic lighting that makes the photos gritty, edgy, and really cool. After the locker room shoot, we headed to a nearby park to finish up. Collin attends Rock Canyon High School and plans on continuing his hockey career in collage.

These are awesome Ross! I really like the ones of him in the locker room, but I happen to LOVE the ones outside, esp the black and white and the one of him on the fence. Nice work!
