Hi, I'm Sydney! As a former collegiate athlete, my transition from the playing field to behind the lens has allowed me to capture not just the action but the essence of passion, determination, and the indomitable spirit of athletes. Being a former athlete has given me valuable insight into the world of sports photography. Based in Kansas City, MO, I explore the emerging worlds of sports action photography and the atmosphere on the sidelines, offering a unique perspective on the evolving intersection of athleticism and style. 

The Crossover:
Lifestyle and athletics frequently converge. Two contrasting worlds come together in fascinating ways—whether through family moments, intimate portraits, or the entertainment industry. The Super Bowl, for example, exemplifies this crossover. Fashion trends, viral commercials, and iconic music performances all become a part of the Super Bowl's larger narrative, creating a dynamic fusion of athleticism and entertainment that captivates not only audiences of the sports world, but beyond. My goal is to continuously bring new and fresh perspectives to the sports world through my photos.
