Culver Academy Baseball Photos vs. Rochester
Last week, I photographed the CMA Varsity Baseball team as they continued their winning season playing against Rochester High School. When this game took place, Culver was still undefeated during the season. The kids played really well as a team and have a great coaching staff.
I’ve posted some photos here. Other photos from the game are located at:

CMA JV Lacrosse vs. LaPorte
On May 12th, the CMA JV Lacrosse team hosted LaPorte High School for an evening game played on Oliver Field at Culver Academies. As expected with Culver’s Lacrosse teams, the JV team dominated the game and easily won 8 to 0.

CGA Varsity Lacrosse vs. Homestead
On May 12th, I managed to photograph the first game of the Girl’s State Lacrosse playoffs as CGA played Homestead at Culver Academies. The Culver girls played really well and proved why they’re always one of the leading teams in the State Tournament. They easily won with a score of 14-to-2.

Indiana Sports Photography: Culver Academy Crew
Last week, I tagged along on one of the Culver Academy’s chase boats during a practice of the CMA and CGA crew teams practiced on Lake Maxinkuckee. It was cloudy, but I decided to shoot anyway, as we haven’t been seeing much of the sun here in Culver with all the rain. With as many rainy, windy days as we’ve had this spring, I felt that getting some photos was better than missing the entire season. This Spring, so many games and practices have been canceled that you never know when you’ll get another chance. In hindsight, I’m glad that I did shoot them as I had scheduling conflicts the other days that they practiced.

Culver Academy Photos: Bryan DeVries
Last week I did a quick formal photo shoot with Culver Academy student Bryan DeVries in Culver’s beautiful Legion Building. This was a quick, fun photo shoot as we were going for a specific shot to match some framed photos of Bryan’s sister and brother that are already hanging in his home.
Indiana Senior Pictures: Colleen
A couple of weeks ago, Ginny and I met up with Colleen, a senior who wanted to have her senior photos taken here in Culver. Colleen was a lot of fun to work with because, as she says, “She likes what is unconventional.” Colleen had some fresh ideas for taking her senior shots, so we let her lead the way. Along the way, we discovered that she’s a brilliant young woman with a bright future. Ginny wanted to try some new shots, too, as she had some black and whites in mind once she heard Colleen liked that style. So, we played around with some new sun shots (believe it or not, it was actually out for awhile here in Culver). Overall, we had a lot fun with Colleen’s outfits, ideas, and her mom who accompanied us. We are looking forward to hearing about how she does in college and beyond. Good luck, Colleen!
CMA Baseball Senior Regonition
On Saturday, The Culver Academy Baseball team recognized its graduating seniors in a pre-game ceremony where the players are introduced and escorted onto the field with their parents. It is a neat tradition that I wish Culver had when I attended many years ago.

CGA Varsity Softball Photos: Culver Academy vs. South Bend St. Joseph
The other day, I photographed the CGA Varsity Softball team as they hosted South Bend St. Joseph. It was a little overcast and sprinkling (have we not had our share of rain this year?), but with a few camera adjustments, I was still able to get some nice shots. The Lady Eagles struggled, but they never stopped having fun or let the score get them down.

CMA JV Lacrosse Photos: Culver Academy vs. Carmel
On Saturday, the CMA JV Lacrosse team hosted Carmel High School for a lacrosse game played on Oliver Field. The weather was bad with the possibility of rain coming in; this kept me from shooting the entire game. Culver struggled and never quite seemed to get in synch.
I’ve posted some of my favorite photos here. Other photos are located at:

Culver Academy Photos: Pre-Senior Dinner Dance
On Friday night, Ginny and I went to campus to get some photos of the Academy seniors before they departed for their Senior Dinner Dance, which equivalent to most High School Senior Proms. A lot of parents show up to take pictures, too. We were on a mission to get a picture of a couple of students whose senior shots we had taken. It was fun for us, but it also made us think back on our own senior dinner dances. We concluded that they are much cooler now!
