Sports Photography with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms

January 21 & 25 - This exciting sports & action photo expedition features the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, Lehigh Valley's own hockey team!

Sports photography of any kind is full of challenges. The hands-on expedition will give you a solid approach to getting the shot and telling an action-packed story with your pictures.



First, our online classroom session will provide you with tools and techniques to help you be more successful when shooting these fast-paced events. We'll be joined by our Sony representative and pro sports photograher Jason Etzel for this fun, informative session.


You’ll learn about:

  • Freezing the action
  • Anticipating movement
  • Getting better focus
  • Keying on specific players
  • Telling a compelling story

Then on Saturday we’ll meet at the PPL Center to photograph a Phantoms game, full of fast action and exciting photo opportunities. With exclusive access you’ll get to shoot like a professional sports photographer, right up close to the action. Our instructors will be there to help you put your new skills into practice, so you can grab great action shots you’ll be proud of.

Bonus: Professional Gear to use during the game

Our friends from Sony will be bringing lots of amazing gear for you to use during the game, including long lenses and super-fast cameras that are perfect for sports photography. Take advantage of this opportunity to shoot with high-level professional equipment!
