Here are a few of my photos from Saturday’s Rat City Rollergirls bout. The evening featured Derby Liberation Front taking on the Sockit Wenches and a rematch of last year’s championship between Grave Danger and the Throttle Rockets. With over 4000 people in attendance and some fast, hard-hitting bouts, it was a loud and exciting night of derby. Congrats to DLF and Danger on their wins.

Here are a few photos from the season 8 opener for the Rat City Rollergirls. This was my first time shooting a RCRG bout, and I have to admit that I am hooked! I’ve only ever watched the bouts from the stands, so it was pretty awesome to be sitting 5 feet away from the skaters and having a pretty sweet view. It’s very different than shooting banked track, where I can get right up next to the skaters, but this is no less exciting and fun to shoot. Between Rat City and Tilted Thunder, my derby shooting schedule for this year is pretty packed!

Here are a few samples from my recent photo shoot with Grave Danger of the Rat City Rollergirls. It was a kind of a crazy shoot, because everything (setup, testing, shooting, break down) was done in less than 2 hours in the backstage area at Comcast Arena just before Jingle Bell Brawl with the Tilted Thunder Rail Birds. We really blitzed through the photo shoot, but I’m very happy with how everything turned out.

I spent most of the day retouching photos from my portrait session with Grave Danger. This is the first job I’m doing on my new MacBook Pro, and I am amazed at how snappy everything is. Lightroom is fast. Photoshop is fast. They’re both fast when running at the same time. I love new computers.
