02. FALL SPORTS FOOTBALL
THERE IS RARELY A DULL MOMENT in football, and things can change in a second. Action is constant, and as the photographer, you will need to move quickly! A football field is huge and the action could be all over. Make sure you follow the action.
Capture cheerleaders, coaches, and fan participation! You will capture the most emotion during the key moments of triumph and defeat.
Football games are not just about the game, so there are opportunities for a quality shot from wherever you are standing.
Knowing the rules of the game will help you anticipate what will happen. A fourth down will likely mean a punt, so the ball will be about to change possession.
Don’t ignore the team box, but make sure you know the rules. Coaches don’t like disruptions so be careful not to be in the way. ATTEND WORKOUTS AND PRACTICES. Football tends to be a no-cut sport, so that means a lot of players don’t see much game time. Workouts and practices are typically during the daytime hours and you will get more shots of more players.
