Giving Back – Softball Against Cancer
Again, I look to Jeremy Cowart for my inspiration to use my photography for giving back to the community. Every year our school has a staff vs. senior softball game where all proceeds go to the Cancer Society. I offer my photography to the cause shooting each player as they take their turn at bat and also some of the plays out in the field. The biggest contribution I make is to take a picture of all the players on the field and then make 8×10 prints that thank the sponsors.
We all know someone who has had their lives touched by cancer. I know I have several. This was an opportunity to give back to them.

The staff beat a team of “we’re in the prime of our life” students by a margin of 12 runs? Hmm…. I wonder what the score would be if this game were held AFTER the final grades were submitted.
