Indiana Hockey Photographer: CGA Varsity vs. Traverse City

This past weekend, Ginny had to do a lot of editing work, so went to my first hockey game of the season. Due to some recent traveling and a busy schedule, I’m a little late with getting to the winter sports. This past weekend, there were two home hockey games between the CGA Varisty hockey team and Traverse City U19 Girl’s Team. I went to both and enjoyed photographing the CGA girls who played great games and won both of them.

I’ve posted my favorite photos here; others are posted at:

Indiana Sports Photography: CMA Eagles Varsity Football vs. Andrean

Last night, the CMA Eagles varsity Football team hosted Andrean at Culver Academies for the second Sectionals game of the post-season tournament. As some may recall, Andrean was the team that ended Culver’s tournament run last year. Unfortunately, they were able to do the same this year. Culver suffered some injuries in the first half, but played their hearts despite the loss of some of their key players.  The opposing team appeared to have two or three times more kids on their team than Culver. I think they could have fielded three teams. Ginny and I hope the kids who were injured are doing better, and if not, we hope for speedy recoveries. I’ve posted some photos here.

Indiana Sports Photographer: CMA Varsity Football vs. Knox High School

What a great way to for CMA to start their their post-season tournamanet! On Friday night of last week, the CMA Eagles played Knox High School in Knox and won! The Culver Academy Eagles started the game by scoring on their first pocession. After that, Culver’s offense and defence dominated the game. For the record, when Knox played well, they played really well and proved to be a tough opponent. Fortunately for Culver, Knox struggled and never quite came together as a team, allowing Culver to advance in the playoffs. The final score, Culver- 28 and Knox-13.  I’ve posted some photos here.

Indiana Sports Photographer: CMA Football vs. Fairfield

On Friday night, the Culver Academy Eagles proved that you can’t always believe what people say about a team. The statistics, the newspapers, and the general consensus were that Culver couldn’t win their Varsity Football game against Fairfield High School. Fortunately for Culver’s sake, no one affiliated with the CMA football program paid attention to the speculation. Playing against a much larger squad with a better record, the Culver Eagles showed up to play. And play they did! Culver played their hearts out and Fairfield was the team that made some crutial mistakes that lead Culver to an easy win. The final score was Culver- 40 and Fairfield- 13.

Indiana Children’s Photography: Eliza and Avery

DSC_0165

On Friday, Ginny and I shot two of our favorite subjects: Eliza and Avery. These sisters are beautiful, full of energy, and a lot of fun to hang with behind a camera. Their mom Wendy had them dressed in sun dresses given our high 70s weather. She also staged a picnic on Culver Academies’ campus in front of the lake. The girls were so interested in the nearby rock, lake, and field that they didn’t want much to do with the picnic area we set up, but we did manage to get some keepers. We had a great time capturing them as they played, each in their own world, and a few times with each other. Eliza liked the bright flowers and rock most, but she was cooperative when we asked her to follow Avery, so that we could get both in the same shot. Avery liked running in the grass and by the lake and in her bare feet, she was adorable discovering the open spaces around her. We often say that kids make the best subjects. In these pictures, you can see why. These girls are a joy to be around and we look forward to every shoot with them.

Indiana Sports Photography: Culver Middle School Football

Earlier this week,the Culver Middle School Football team played Jimtown Middle School. The boys played hard and I got some great photos. I was told that this is young team for Culver where many of the players are new to the game. Regardless, I think that boys did a good job and never gave up. I’ve posted some photos here.

Indiana Sports Photography: CMA Intersquad Lacrosse

To wrap up the Culver Academy’s Parent’s Weekend, the CMA Lacrosse teams played an interquad game on their field overlooking Lake Maxinkuckee. The weather was nice, the kids played hard, and a good sized crowd cheered them on. It was a lot of fun and a great way to end a big weekend. The game was a high scoring game with no dominate side, as the teams were picked by the team captains. After each goal, the teams performed little routines that could be best described as “excessive celebration,” which had the fans laughing. I can tell you this–Culver won. Beyond that, I’m sorry that I wasn’t paying close enough attention to say whether Maroon or White won. Regardless, it was fun and something more teams should do in their off seasons. I’ve posted some photos here. Others are located at:

Indiana Sports Photography: CCHS Varsity Football vs. Jimstown

Friday Night Football at its finest! Last night I photographed the Culver Cavaliers as their Varsity team played against Jimtown High School in Culver, Indiana.  It was a great game to watch and CCHS played extremely well considering their team appeared to have about half the number of players as Jimtown. Watching the game, the score could have gone either way as there was’nt a dominant team. Unfortunately, Culver Community couldn’t pull out the win. The final score: Culver-14 Jimtown- 21. Great effort, Culver. You worked hard and it’s obvious why you are having such a successful season! I’ve posted some photos here. Other photos are located at:

Indiana Sports Photography: CMA Varsity Soccer vs. Argos High School

In the second game of the evening, the Culver Varsity Soccer Team played Argos High School at Culver Academies. The CMA Eagles played well, but some struggles in the first half put them too far behind to overcome Argos in the second half. With a couple of scores late in the second half, Culver showed promise and heart. The final score was Culver-2 Argos-3. I’ve posted some photos here. Others are located at:
