Volleyball

This is the second season that I’ve photographed the Annandale High School Varsity volleyball team.

This is the second season that I’ve photographed the Annandale High School Junior Varsity volleyball team.

Since high school volleyball matches are played until one team wins 3 games, the match duration can be pretty variable.  So, I found myself showing up early for an Annandale High School varsity game at Mt. Vernon High School, just in case the prior JV match ended early.  But as it turns out, I was there in time to see the whole JV match (I guess the Freshman match went the full length.).  In any case, since I was there, I started shooting the JV match as well.

I was asked by the Annandale High School (AHS) Director of student Activities (DSA) to take photos of other 2017 Fall sports besides field hockey.  I am always looking for opportunities to learn, especially in new environments, so I agreed to give it my best, and cover whatever events my work and travel schedule would allow.

Varsity volleyball was my first opportunity, so this blog entry is an attempt to capture what I learned from the few games I was able to shoot.
