Yesterday I shot the Gwinnett Gladiators vs. Charlotte Checkers game at the Arena at Gwinnett Center.  I used the first part of the game to try and get the more standard shots because you can run those in the paper and not have to worry about how large they will run since people know right [...]

The other week when I shot the other player’s portrait I shot this one as well.  Trying to set up lights on ice and not falling is a harder task than you’d think.

The Gwinnett Gladiators’ Dan Sullivan has made the move to the top line from the checking line and is thriving in his new [...]

Shot the Gladiators game tonight at the Gwinnett Arena against the South Carolina Sting Rays.  Normal hockey shots, but I really liked this fight photo right below this.

I’m shooting the Gladiators again tonight, the game hasn’t started yet but I got to the arena a bit early.  As I was walking around the catwalk area to get to where the media sits, I noticed this one guy on the ice all by himself in an otherwise empty arena.  I snapped a quick [...]

Last night I shot the Gwinnett Gladiators vs. Augusta Lynx ECHL hockey game at the Gwinnett Arena.  They play on Thanksgiving night annually, and since I was working, I was there to shoot it.

The Gladiators’ Daniel Sullivan (28) celebrates with teammates on his bench after scoring the teams’’ second goal in 11 seconds. It was [...]

Shot the Gwinnett Gladiators vs. Charlotte Checkers ECHL hockey game tonight at the Gwinnett Arena.  I think I’m getting better at shooting hockey.
In addition to the standard shots from the floor, I also tried shooting from the catwalk that goes around the top level of the arena where the press sits.  Didn’t completely work out, [...]

My final assignment today was to shoot the Gwinnett Gladiators hockey game against the Augusta Lynx.  This was only the second time I’ve ever shot hockey (click here to see the first time), but I think I did okay.

I noticed this just before I was leaving that when the players got close to this corner, [...]

The conversation between myself and my contact at the AP that occurred earlier this week:
Mr B.: Hey Josh, can you shoot the Thrashers game on Saturday?
Me: Yes, one thing though.
Mr. B.: Whats that?
Me: Does it matter that I’ve never shot hockey before?
Mr. B.: No, not really.
And then there I was, shooting an NHL game as [...]
