sports photographers always capture athletes in action out on the track but rarely do you see the behind the scenes i always would bring my camera to competitions and take photos of my teammates some planned, some candid of course i got in trouble for this from staff who said โiโm being unprofessional and i need to focus on my competitionโ but im so glad i did it one of my goals has always been to take photos behind the scenes at the olympics !! i think i might mint some of my fave photos as a series ๐ค

aww thanks pichi!! also alot of athletes ended up with no professional photos cos the photographers often only capture the winners so for some this would have be the only memory of the championships!

That makes this story even better! I didnโt think about them not having any photos. When I travel alone, I only have selfies and Iโm so thankful when strangers take the time to take a photo for me. You probably made such a big impact for them and I bet their friends and family are so thankful!!!
