WWU Hockey, can't get enough!

When I found out Western had a hockey team 2 years ago, I thought it might be cool to see a game or two.

I didn't realize I'd be hooked to going and shooting some great games with great athletes and seriously hard hitting action.  It seems everyone else has been realizing it too. I can't get enough Western Hockey lately, it's an absolute challenge to shoot through puck scuffed glass, in a terribly lit building and a game that is as unpredictable as this guy.

Come support your Western Vikings at the Sportsplex, you can find the schedule here

thanks for looking

It's that time again, WWU Hockey!

Absolutely one of my favorite sports to shoot, the Western Hockey team also makes it a blast to watch when they pummel all comers to the Bellingham Sportsplex Ice Arena.

UW came to town for the first game of the year, and with a few hundred spectators packed around the arena, a gritty showdown was sure to follow.  In a hard fought battle Western came out on top 2-1.

The Prime Time Band

For a quick and dirty concert in the PAC after a small info fair for Western's Performing Arts program, the Prime Time Band played one of the best concerts I've ever seen at WWU, and Western has had some pretty killer concerts.  A funk styled band with more soul than a sock with a hole, they had every single person in the place moving their feet, I maybe even broke down and busted a few,  camera in hand and all...Maybe.

V.U. Latenight

Going to V.U. latenight was a very strange flashback to my early years at western, I remember how awesome and new everything was, meeting so many people, and just feeling the college experience beginning very ceremoniously with a big party thrown by your own school. I had a ton of fun watching so many young people starting their college journey and forming new friendships and trying new things. And between the Dead Parrots performing, a batting cage, concert by the Prime Time Band, human bowling, silent disco, free food and a velcro wall, there were plenty off opportunities for me to have a good time shooting

thanks for looking, and here's to feeling old
