Football fan portraits
05/01/2021
Sun... live sport... human interaction. I'm reasonably sure i'm not the only one with cravings for these times to return!
I shot these portraits live at a Brentford match. No second chances, no lighting, no chance to review and re-shoot... just honest, live emotion.
Brentford lost at home that day. And I think my portraits were the better for it. It's easy to shoot happy fans celebrating victory. But capturing those less popular emotions- the galling apprehension of a loss, desperation, obsession... that's what real photography is all about.
