Kim the Soccer Warrior

Photographing female athletes is always thrilling endeavor. I see all athletes as gladiators that go into combat to slay their opponents. So trying to keep the balance between warrior and femininity should be the aim when photographing them. In the series of photos I wanted to use lighting that mostly reserved for men to give the first photo edge and also use lighting to project softness in the remainder of the photos.

Before I forget I would like to thank Kim for being the muse for the day and Kanani for the makeup. We had a short period of time to take a few images before her game. So here's a few images taken during the session.
