Las Vegas- Covering a sporting event usually means trying to get peak action photos. The other part is getting moments of jublilation or dejection that can sum up a match in one photo. UFC 108 had all the elements that can make an engaging photo, great action-filled fights along with emotional wins and losses.

Portraits of Tito Ortiz

I covered an open workout with UFC fighter Tito Ortiz at his training facility in Big Bear Lake, CA. I used three Nikon SB-24 strobes triggered by Pocketwizards. For the formal portraits, I used Honl grids to get a beam of light focused on the subject.
