I've been lucky enough to be an on-court and on-field photographer for University of Illinois football and men's basketball for many years, and I currently photograph for Illiniboard.com, an online website, blog, and forum covering Illinois sports.  Last fall I photographed 2 football games and this winter have covered 3 basketball games, as well as a couple baseball games last spring and the spring football scrimmage.  The recently redesigned site has a long, wide photo format for the main banner image, so my photos here all have a somewhat odd ratio aspect to them.  So bear with me! I am in LOVE with the new lighting at the State Farm Center.  The ribbon boards and the new fancy uplighting add so much pizazz to the photos and the player intros.
