This was a fun day...! And my first paid gig as well!!! Pics were re-sized in LR4 to 1000 pixels on the long end for faster upload. The high res files (which were delivered to the event organizers) look a lot better. These are pretty good though...

60 image set and a better story-line can be viewed at

Haha, yeah, I broke out the speed-light when they handed out the awards (and also for a few mid day sun portraits).

If anyone has time to take a look at the blog set for this event, Id be interested in getting some CC on it, just a quick overall opinion to help me with future events similar to this one...(I've been booked to shoot the Junior Lifeguard State Championship on Oahu this coming Saturday 07/28/12)

p.s. I think deep down I want to know if there good or if they they suck

THanks

Just curious as to why, if you were the hired photographer for the event, why you were not positioned to shoot the award winners in the direction they are looking (obviously to other photographers). YOU should have been the one getting the full "head on" shots of this, and not pushed off to the side of the other photographers if that is in fact what happened.
