This was a quick overnight drive to Memphis and it rained the entire day... Literally right up to the moment I entered Liberty Stadium. Great timing for the shoot. Bad timing for the crowd size, which was obviously a lot smaller than usual. But, I LOVE shooting on cloudy days and especially during sunset!

I know two of the Tigers players: Spencer Rich- who I shot at Brentwood High School during their run to the State Finals in 2000 and Bryce Edmonson- who I know through his Dad, Carl Edmonson- who is one of my fellow photographers in Nashville. They are both Linebackers, so I started my pregame shooting around the LB group who lined up across the stadium from the sunset.

Now, many photogs hate shooting into the sun... I LOVE it! Get me all of the reflections and moody sun rays and shadows to play with!
