Photographing Fight #300 at MCC3

A picture from the first fight I ever shot. PFC #2 - March 2014.

This weekend at Maple City Cagefighting #3 I will shoot my 300th fight since March of 2014. It has been a great couple of years and I have met tonnes of awesome people. I'd like to thank Jamie Champion for giving me a shot even though I had no experience.I love to shoot fights, fighters and promotional material for fights. I'd like to think I've become more skilled at fight pictures and hopefully I'll continue to grow. Looking forward to #300, then onto #500 and a world title fight.
