- So You Want To Be a Sports Photographer? Follow Me!
Mel DiGiacomo has been a top pro for years, and gets access to events like the US Open that other photographers can only dream of (in fact, he is the only photographer in the Tennis Hall of Fame). But when budding photographers think him lucky, and ask him how they can get that same access, assuming that it is the access that drives his success, he explains the VIP access myth: It is not the access that gets him the great shots; it is his great, consistent work that gets him the access. Before you aim high you have to start small, and in this presentation, Mel will explain how to build a body of work, and your portfolio; the photographs that will get you jobs.
If Mel DiGiacomo is lucky, it is the definition of luck, ‘when opportunity meets preparation’. He is prepared, and in this presentation, the always inspirational (and entertaining) Mel will show you to get prepared yourself; how to use peewee and high school games as the learning tools that get you ready to get the shots in any conditions, to do your experimenting, to learn to truly own your equipment, because a great sports photo is a great sports photo regardless of whether it includes a celebrity or not. Mel helps you learn to be ready to take advantage of that access opportunity when it presents itself, so you can experience the thrill of photography victory, not the agony of defeat.

Great to see another presentation from this guy...always entertaining!!
Outstanding work. I watched 3 of your bhphoto presentations and went through some of your work. You really showed how to use wide angle and gear matters very little to get outstanding shots. Your photographs and stories touched me on many occasions. Once again great work and you come out as a wonderful person.
Dope! amazing speech! something incredible! Its like street-photogrpaher but in sports. Love his sens of humor
Glad you enjoyed!
I'm only a minute in at the moment, but with all due respect, starting a sports photography presentation with a picture that's cut wierdly at the ankle and talking about "good photographs" at the same time is just...
But I'm sure it gets better.
What are the legalities of taking pictures of people and using them for your portfolio of profit? Does the people in the photographs give permission?
While I recommend checking with a lawyer for legal assistance regarding your inquiry as we cannot provide legal advice, a rule of thumb is if the images will be used for personal usage in your portfolio, you may not need a model release. If you are taking an image of a person and they are recognizable in the image, and if you are using the image for commercial business purposes, like a brochure, calendar, poster, web site or other use that is intended to enhance a business interest, or for advertisement or for profit, then a model release is recommended.
