Volleyball, Volleyball, Volleyball... and more Volleyball


In three days I photographed a total of 12 volleyball matches. The state high school volleyball tournament was held in Cedar Rapids this week and I along with another staff photographer covered the games Wednesday thru Friday. We set up lights on the catwalks a week early so each court would be lit. Since there were two courts and games were played on each court at the same time each of us took a court to shoot.

There was lots of action, celebrations and tears. The hardest thing was trying to capture all of those things from a different angle each game. It was a long three days but I enjoyed every second of it, even the walking up and down the stairs before and after each match. So below are a sample of photos from the 12 games.

  1. Great shots! I hope that getting to the cat walk in Cedar Rapids was easier than it was for hockey games in Moline. Good Times!!!
