It Was a Lot Closer Than We Thought it'd Be

Made it back to Ann Arbor for the last September game to capture another thrilling game of Michigan Football. And the score was a lot closer than most anticipated — 20-13.

There were 106,943 humans in the stadium yesterday.

This is the last time I’ll be in the Big House for a few weeks (potentially the season — it’s in the hands of the Michigan credentialing gods) so I wanted to make the most of this game. I’ve been so appreciative this year to be able to take photos pretty consistently; the only way to get better is to keep practicing!

Someone asked me recently if my style has changed over the years, and I am still thinking about my answer to this. My first instinct is, of course, but I also think there are a lot of aspects that I still carry with me. I started photography with more of an artistic/commercial eye, and I’ve found this still makes its way through. I also often try and find layers to surround the subject.

I’m a big fan of introspection and reflection (probably too much, honestly) and it’s funny/a bit humbling to look back at my old photos. With the help and encouragement of other photographers, my friends/family, etc., I’ve been able to carve a path to find my voice through photography. And in this crazy world we’re in, I’m incredibly thankful to have this as a constant.

I’m sorry for anyone who saw me (attempting to) run across the field to get these photos. Hope to see you all again soon!
