New concept - professional photos at meets

Hey all -- just wanted to share a new thing that we have tried here in New England. We hosted the New England Masters SCY Champs a week or two ago (about 620 swimmers this year, a bit small). As something new this year, we had a professional photographer at the meet snapping pictures. These pictures are all online and available for purchase. This is a practice that is very popular at triathlons, but I've never seen it done at a swim meet before. We're eager to see how well it works out, and to hear if anyone else has ever thought about this. For those interested, everything is linked from the meet web site: www.swimindex.com/.../ There are just over 1500 pictures available from the meet. Yup - one thousand five hundred. -Rick

    A lot of the big age group meets I have gone to have a photographer. I have gotten some nice pictures of my kids this way. You take the heat sheet to their table and tell them what heat and lane to take pictures of and they do it. Later you pick out what you want and can have them done up fancy or just get the plain picture.
