Photographer Captures Football's Human Side with 35mm and 50mm Lenses

This photographer explains their shift away from telephoto lenses for traditional sports action shots in favor of 35mm and 50mm lenses. They focus on capturing the unpredictable, emotional, and human elements surrounding football, often in community settings or within the stands. The approach emphasizes empathy, presence, and genuine involvement to gain access and document authentic moments, rather than just documenting the game itself.
