Volleyball Champions!!

Wahoo schools out for summer! Well I’m bringing you back to school in this post. I had the privilege a little while back (while school was still in session) to photograph two girls volleyball teams! They were so fun! I had really forgotten how things are when your in middle school, laughing about boys and all that!!! Maybe laughing too hard. Once you get a group of girls giggling about boys, it’s kind of  hard to get them to stop, opps! I photographed all the girls days before both teams had their big championship games and wahoo, they won!!!  This is a pic a friend of mine took of them, I think it was after their game, but I think all their personalities really shine. They are such a great group, I’m so glad they won!

I don’t normally do sports stuff, but I really wanted their stuff to be a little different and felt really good how it all turned out. All the volleyball templets out there seemed well.. boring so this is the one I choose.5x7vert_Volleyball copyGroup copyGroup1 copyS02_5X7_Card_01A copy

I have to give a big shout out to Marshall Middle School for being so nice and letting me set up and bring all my stuff! Oh and to make the templates more personalized to the school they let me use their logo, Go Wolves! You can tell that the staff there is just really great! As I said I don’t normally do sports stuff and so for sports images the lab I use makes you send it FTP. Which I had never done. If you know what that is cool if you don’t let me just tell you it was a huge pain in my butt. Why? Because I can never do things the easy way. I got some one from the lab to email a kind of  step by step on how to do it, but of course it’s email so that wasn’t exactly right. I always want my stuff to be great so I went the extra mile to put the girls names on every template which caused me problems later. So.. apparently you are supposed to set it all up like how you would do school pictures- the one shot of the girl gets used to print a wallet, 5×7, and magnet. Well I couldn’t really do it that way, because thats right I had put the girls pictures into  templates with their name on them. So instead of a nice packet where each girls stuff is all together. I had to have them printed a different way and group them myself. so this is what my kitchen table looked like while I grouped them and put them into their packets. Oh well, live and learn for next time. It was all worth it though I really though the templets looked great! Oh and excuse my horrible Iphone pictures lol.

So a big thank you to my friend Melanie and her beautiful daughter Sierra! Here she is and here they are together, they are too adorable!_MG_9925_MG_0160A
