It’s been an amazing few days out here in San Diego, California! I’ve been out here at PETCO Park covering the Boston Red Sox representatives at the 2016 Major League Baseball All-Star Game.
I had my hands full, as this was the tenth and final All-Star game for Red Sox designated hitter, David Ortiz. That made for some nice moments. We also had three of our youngest and brightest – shortstop Xander Bogaerts, right fielder Mookie Betts, and center fielder Jackie Bradley Jr. – all who made the All-Star starting lineup. It was nonstop shooting for me from the beginning to the end of the day.
This was the first All-Star Game that I’ve shot, and it was a really fun experience for me. It was great to document our team, but also to meet and see all the other photographer and team photographers there covering the game. It’s a reunion, of sorts, for us baseball team photographers.
Here are some images from the day. A big thank you to the Boston Red Sox for making this possible!

I’m out here in San Diego, California! Last night, the five members of the Boston Red Sox selected to the 2016 Major League Baseball All-Star game flew to San Diego. jetBlue, the official airline of the Boston Red Sox, flew pitcher Steven Wright, shortstop Xander Bogaerts, right fielder Mookie Betts, center fielder Jackie Bradley Jr., designated hitter David Ortiz and families to the West Coast.
I was asked to join the flight to document everything happening. This was my first time flying on the team charter with the team, and it was an experience I’ll never forget. I tried to show some behind the scenes moments from the trip without being intrusive to the players and their families. It’s a balancing act, but I think some of these images are pretty neat.
Stay tuned for more coverage from the All-Star festivities at PETCO Park!
