Waupaca Swan Park Fireworks 2017 https://www.tkollphotography.com/blog/2017/2/waupaca-swan-park-fireworks-2017

Here are some images from last nights Waupaca Swan Park Ski Hill Fireworks.  The weather was wonderful, the people showed up and seemed to be having a blast, and the fireworks were fantastic!  There is one I've played with, as I showed up the night before only to be treated by a nice sunset--so I thought I'd add some fireworks to it!  Enjoy!

Amherst Falcons Cross Country 2016 https://www.tkollphotography.com/blog/2016/10/amherst-falcons-cross-country-2016 It was a rainy, cold day and we had scheduled team photographs to try and take in the fall colors.  In fact, it was pouring rain as I drove up to the school, though the forecast called for a break within an hour.  Rather than cancel, I photographed the runners in the school building and then did the team photos in the back of the school as the weather did finally break.  Here are the results, placing the individual and teams on a scene I photographed on my way home that afternoon.  Hope you like the results.

The Team Photo and Posters https://www.tkollphotography.com/blog/2016/9/the-team-photo Many players ask "What's the difference between the team photo and a team poster?"  Good question, and depending whom you ask, you may get different views.  My response is always, who am I serving and for what purpose?  As a sports team photographer for any high school, I am commissioned to photograph team photos that can be used for the yearbook, for newspaper articles, and for team submissions to the State Tournament brochures.  Therefore, the team photos are more traditional and formal--that will be suitable for parents as well.

The poster, however, serves a different purpose.  Often, players request something unique and different, which reflects the spirit or personality of the team.  I believe this comes from the seniors of any team, and therefore, I try to feature the seniors in a poster idea.  It tends to be more spontaneous and edgy, and I try to employ more creative and fun elements into the composition, without going overboard.  This artistic approach gets tricky at times, as everyone interprets art differently, though when capturing the spirit of the seniors successfully, can be quite powerful.  Here are some samples from this fall's teams so far.  Enjoy!

Certified Professional Photographer https://www.tkollphotography.com/blog/2016/5/certified-professional-photographer Trust is key in any relationship, right? Potential clients want a photographer they can count on, and certification gives you that extra level of confidence. With many photographers advertising in the area, it's not always an easy task to make a decision about who to hire for your important event. Being a Certified Professional Photographer distinguishes me from the others.
