Introduction

My focus is to provide the absolute best quality images of your all-star playing the game they love. I shoot professionally for High Schools and competitive clubs in my area. When working on my own, I prefer to photograph single athletes and provide complete galleries of all digital images shot during a game or match at a reasonable price.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

unfold fold
I make every attempt to keep my prices competitive. Price breaks will be given when a customer can help me secure other business from parents or athletes that want their game photos taken as well. No more than 5 players will be photographed per game. Payments must be made by credit card prior to the game or event.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

unfold fold
I prefer that the client goes to my website alanmohring.myportfolio.com to learn about the services I offer and how my process works. I shoot only individual players on a team, no more than 4 or 5 so that I can provide an ample number of photos of each paid player and allow clients access to ALL of the photos I've taken with full usage rights. Parents and/or players who have paid for photos will receive a text/email message with a link to all photos I have taken during a game. This is done through Capture Life which allows you to download, create prints, and share photos on social media sites.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

unfold fold
I shoot professionally for Visual Image Photography. I do this throughout the school year and specialize in sports photography. I also shoot productions, musicals, plays when on assignment for them. In my spare time, I enjoy shooting only specific athletes so that I can provide a portfolio of images of specific players that may not always be highlighted by other photographers who follow the action of a game. I have found that parents enjoy this service and I am thankful that I can provide them with professional images.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

unfold fold
I started photography nearly 30 years ago, but have recently entered sports photography when my kids started in competitive soccer and dance. Many parents loved my work and started paying me to take photos of their kids.

What types of customers have you worked with?

unfold fold
I typically have worked with parents of players that enjoy my work. I have also worked for schools, clubs and teams that wanted to offer photography fundraising projects that the parents would enjoy participating in. This has been very rewarding for me and I love providing these opportunities.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

unfold fold
For me, every project is special. Since I began focusing on single players, I have learned to capture moments of them in a game that their parents can't always see or experience. My greatest pleasure comes from sharing stories about how athletes encourage and celebrate each other during the course of a game. For me, this type of selective photography gives me a chance to show the champion in each of the subjects I shoot.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

unfold fold
I believe anyone can now take decent photos since everyone carries a cell phone or digital cameras. However, to get professional images requires more expensive equipment and experience with action photography. This may be out of reach for most parents. I want to be able to provide this experience and equipment at a reasonable fee that enables each of my clients the best value and service for their money.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

unfold fold
Although not required, it helps me if a parent has an idea of what they would like me to capture during a game. I typically have a list of shots for every sport that I try to capture, but if a parent can provide me with an idea of what they are looking for, I can typically provide them with more photos that meet their expectations. I have provided thousands of examples of my work on the links on my website page, "Professional Images To Be Proud Of" as well as sample shots of many sports that I have covered. alanmohring.myportfolio.com
