The shoot was on Picture Day at Tradition Field, when the typical head shots are taken by Major League Baseball, The Mets, and the press for use on TV, the Jumbotron, fan photos, baseball cards, etc.<\/p>\n
What's different about this shoot is that SNY wanted pictures of the players that showed much more character and personality, capturing unposed photojournalistic moments. What a terrific assignment for Jane who loves to….keep it real. : }<\/p>\n
The shoot itself went from 7:30am-9am, one player after another for a total of 69 players and coaches…that's about 90 seconds per player. The players were great—loose and funny—and were a pleasure to shoot. Jane remarked that she could really see the boyish side to the players. An excellent shoot all around. Special thanks to Julie from SNY and the Mets…a great picture is always a team effort!<\/p>\n
As an aside, I want to say that I'm really proud of Jane for photographing another high profile commercial job for the NYC market (on top of the TIME 100
\nMost Influential People and Swarovski's Sputnik Chandelier installation
\nat the NY Metropolitan Opera).<\/p>\n
The Mets play their inaugural opener on April 13 at the new Citi Field<\/a>. So………Ya Gotta Believe….Lets Go Mets in 2009!!!
