As a serious athlete, when I first picked up a camera I was drawn to photograph sports. My own experience has helped inform my ability to capture moments when the athletes experience a range of emotions from distress to celebration. This piece pinpoints a pivotal moment during the Laver Cup in 2025, focusing on the dramatic energy when Taylor Fritz won the first set against Carlos Alcaraz. The contrast between the famous black court and the vibrant red shirt worn by Fritz representing Team World emphasizes the isolation and focus he needed to harness to beat the #1 ranked player in the world. In the background, the divide between the blue and the red symbolizes the binary nature of any sports match: winning versus losing, Team World against Team Europe. This image captures the stress, the drama, and the celebration as Taylor Fritz is triumphant in the end.

Creativity means to have the ability to express. I feel that creativity isn't constrained to a subject and the principles of expression can be seen everywhere. From sports to math class, creativity means to deviate from an expectation. Creativity means to be yourself and be proud of what you innovate.
