Hey there! I'mTracy!
I’m a mom of three and the wife of a football and baseball coach for almost 30 years. My love for photography started in my teens, but my passion for sports was discovered on the sidelines of a pee wee football field. As the old saying goes, “If you can’t beat them, join them,” so I did—on the field.
I LOVE being a part of the action, and my favorite part is going home and pulling the grit out of the images I’ve captured. That’s where the picture is painted, as I like to call it—the place where the art begins. Otherwise, it’s just a bunch of photos dumped together, and they all start looking the same.
The bloody noses, helmets flying off, tears from their last high school game with their friends—I LOVE those shots! I’m also a big fan of what I call the “Mom shot.” It’s that one where all you can see under their helmet are the sweet eyes of your precious baby looking back at you. Awww, it brings a tear to my eye just thinking about some of the ones I’ve captured of my own big babies. (And you can see some of them right here on this website. <~ Insert heart-eyes emoji here! Ha ha!)
I’ve always been the team photographer for my kids’ teams, but as I started taking more and more classes, upgrading equipment, updating editing software, building a website, etc., I decided to turn this expensive hobby into a business. I’m still learning every day, and I’ve met some awesome people along this journey!
I love the saying, “Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.” It’s SO true! And some of the moments I’ve captured through my lens have become some of the most amazing memories for years to come!!
