An exciting announcement: This season I will be doing a season-long photo story with the North Carolina Tar Heels men’s soccer team<\/a>, telling the lives of the student athletes off the field. You’ll see little in the way of game action photos; you can find those easily elsewhere. Instead, this will document the moments you never get to see. Reps during practice, gearing up before a game, and those formative moments that bond these student athletes together towards a collective vision of excellence on the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ll confess that I’m both excited and nervous about the experience. Excited because I’ll be back at my alma mater<\/em> doing this story, a school that always feels me with good memories. Nervous because I’ve never done a story with a soccer team and will be figuring this out as a stumble along, trying to find compelling photography week in and week out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are some images from the first day, a photo and video day session held at the new UNC Soccer and Lacrosse stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow along with me on my Instagram<\/a> or Twitter<\/a> accounts as we take this journey together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until then, I’m off to buy some UNC soccer gear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
