This has been a truly exciting spring (thus the lack of posts)! My photography has gone from a weekly exercise to often multiple times a week. And, as a result, my wife has gotten more-and-more frustrated by the number of nights that I spend away from the house :).

Marital problems aside (we’re fine, I think) it’s simultaneously super exciting, anxiety-inducing, and overwhelming balancing everything on top of everything else.

One of my favorite gigs has been partnering with the great folks at the Austin Bold, Austin’s first professional soccer team. The team competes in the USL Championship league. Though it’s technically “under” the MLS in the US professional soccer hierarchy, the soccer being played is ridiculously good. These dudes are no joke and they come from all around the world to play in this wild, fast, super technical league. I am in no way hawking The Bold just because I’ve been working with them, they’re friggin’ fun and the games are a blast.

In no particular order I’m posting some of my favorite images from this first half of the season. I also want to give a huge shout out to the team and players for being so kind to and generous with me, an unknown photographer dude that just started taking pictures and then kept taking pictures :). Here’s to an amazing second half of the year!
