Snell
I’m ready for tonight’s game (Steelers vs. Seahawks). You?
Night games are always fun. The Shutter Rush Team (Jason, Jake and I) will all be there covering the game for our respective media outlets.
I took this photo last weekend at the Steelers vs. Broncos game. This Benny Snell Jr.
Von Miller
It was fun capturing photos of the Broncos last Sunday. It was my first time photographing Denver. Their star defensive player was fun to watch…
Buggs
Isaiah Buggs is a defensive end for the Steelers after being drafted by them in 2019. Prior to joining the Steelers, he attended and played football at the University of Alabama. The first photo is from Buffalo on September 12th. The second photo is from last Sunday (September 19th) at Heinz Field when the Steelers were hosting the Raiders.

Steelers vs Raiders Game Action
It was a great week 2 game at Heinz Field. Here are a few action photos I captured from the Raiders win (sorry Steelers fans).

Faces Of The Game
One of the things I like about sports and photographing sports is the emotion involved. Everything from extremely happy to extreme sad. The full range emotions are on display throughout every game.
Here are a few photos from last Sunday’s game (Steelers at Bills) that display what I’m talking about.
Diontae's TD
It was great covering the Steelers-Bills game yesterday in Buffalo for a few reasons. First, it was great to get the season started. Second, the environment was fun to experience. I’ll admit the Bills fans seemed louder than I normally experience in Pittsburgh.
Diontae Johnson made this acrobatic touchdown catch in the 4th quarter right in front of me. Sometimes I’m lucky to be in the right spot at the right time.
I’ll share more photos from the game later this week.
Ready For Some Football???
The NFL season started last night with the Thursday night game (Tampa Bay vs. Dallas). Most of the games are on Sunday and I’m happy to kick off my season as well. I’ll be in Buffalo photographing the Bills vs. Steelers game for the media…. I’ve been covering the Steelers for over a decade as a representative of the Observer Reporter newspaper.
I’m very excited to get my season started…. It should be great environment with the Bills crazy fans. Let’s Go!!
Pete Carroll
We’re one week away from the start of the NFL regular season. I’m ready, are you?
For the second year in a row, COVID is messing up the NFL season (along with our entire world) and once again due to COVID restrictions, I’ll need to get game media credentials on a game-by-game basis. I’ve been very fortunate in the past and was granted season access. They’ve limited media access, which is completely understandable.
So, I probably won’t be covering every game this season, but I’m hopeful I’ll get to photograph many of them. This will be my tenth year covering the Steelers…. I’ve been very lucky (I also work pretty darn hard, but also very lucky) ….in my career, relationships, photography and in life generally. I’m grateful!!
By the way, I took this photo of Seattle Seahawks Head Coach Pete Carroll during the 2019 season. Have a great football season. I hope your team wins.
Ready For Football
I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for the 2021 NFL season. We have a few more months before pre-season yet, but thankfully it’ll be here before we know it. I captured this photo of Ben in Buffalo last season.
Goodbye Matthew
Well, my Lions traded Matthew Stafford to the LA Rams last night. All good things usually come to an end and the Lions got more than I expected for trading Matthew. So, I’ll wish him well and hope that Goff plays well for the Lions.
Heyward
Here is a photo from last Sunday’s game of defensive lineman Cameron Heyward….

Stafford to Abdullah
Another NFL throwback for you. Here is a photo I took at Ford Field in 2018 of Matthew Stafford handing the ball to Ameer Abdullah. I don’t remember for sure, but I think my Lions lost this game. Not that the Lions losing is an unusual event.

Smith-Schuster
Super Bowl week for two great teams and we’ll see how it plays out this weekend. I don’t really care who wins, I just want it to be an entertaining game. Until then, I share this photo of JuJu that I captured this season.

Tomlin and Wilson
Here is a post-game photo of Mike Tomlin and Russell Wilson as they discussed the game and wished each other well….. Sometimes I like these types of photos more then the action photo. I like the human element of it.
