Track Fashion

"Tara Davis competes in the Women's Long Jump Final during Day 3 of the 2017 USA Track & Field Outdoor Championships at Hornet Stadium on June 24, 2017 in Sacramento, California."

Over the past couple of years I've been finding myself documenting more and more track & field events.

And to this day, I still find it to be one of the most challenging sports to photograph.

Time management is everything in the controlled chaos that is athletics. With multiple events occurring at the same time, I am thankful to always be a part of a team that helps us document everything successfully.

What I am often finding though is there are so many details in this sport. From hair, to nails, shoes and everything in between. Every athlete has a style that helps them stand out, yet be one of the United States team.

During the 2017 USA Track & Field Championships, I found a familiar face, or should I say hair, of young star Tara Davis. I had photographed her a couple years ago at the Youth Championships, and she was back again.

He talent helps her stand out amongst her competition, but it's her hair that often helps us photographers make an interesting image.
