Sports Creatives, I went to college for graphic design. I dropped out to become a firefighter. While I don't regret that decision I do have some thoughts. I have always dreamed of being a team photographer. I got that opportunity 10 years later with #HailState +.

I am so used to being around the 6A and college programs that you forget many places don't have the facilities or the amount of coaches. Seeing the same player on offense, defense and special teams--thats tough work. Shout out to all the smaller school coaches! @rjasongoodwin1

Rejection sucks. It is painful and hurts your pride. But if you never ask for that opportunity your answer was always going to be no. There’s always a chance that they’ll respond with “yes” and when they do, it makes all the effort, fear or failure and opportunity worth it.

100% agree. The creatives at schools spend so much time and effort to tell the story of a brand. Fans consume their efforts and many times perfections of the programs is based on what is put out there. Invest in the creatives and storytellers.
