Oh boy was it a hot one out there today.  Compared to the weather we have been having, it felt like a sauna.  Just taking pictures drained the energy out of me.  I honestly did not know how everyone that played were able to keep their strength up all day.  I just can’t wait until the mid-summer tournaments when it’s twice as hot and twice as humid.

We’re back from Maynard after a very busy weekend!  Grats to all the teams of both the MXL and the AXBL for coming out and giving it their all.  Props to Boston Paintball for hosting event 1.  We’d like to thank all of the staff of the AXBL for running an event with such class.  They really run a tight operation and it shows.  We photograph(ed) under Don Sutherland from Hoofhearted Production.  All of our pictures are featured on www.xball.com and are licensed to the league for two weeks.  After which we’ll be posting them on our respective sites (larger res and no watermarks).  Don’t worry we’ll let you know as soon as we get the rights to post them up!  Till then check out the great pics of event 1 from Visually Implied.  See you at event 2!

*it’s gold, but it aint 24 karats.

It may be called the NEPL Jr, but you’d never know it if you were watching the games today. The games were every bit as action packed as you would come to expect from an NEPL, and I can’t wait to see what the next event will bring. A big thank-you to the NEPL staff for another great tournament. See you all at event number two!

It has be a terribly cold winter in New England and with our only hope for winter photos being deflated, there wasn’t much for us to do besides sit by the fire and enjoy the off season.

Well all this cold got me thinking, what ever happend to those 2000+ photos I took at the AXBL-NAX 2008 Finals in Darien, NY? After some searching, some uploading and two long nights of editing I present to you my Best of; AXBL-NAX 2008 Finals.

Best of; AXBL-NAX 2008(Shane)

I hope everyone enjoys this and gets them pumped up for the up coming season. Stay tuned because in less than a month I will be annoucing some BIG news, which includes the events Phamous Media will be covering and our newest edition to the family.

…So another year has come and gone for us.

2008 has been our most monumental year so far.  We Covered the entire NEPL season ( www.thenepl.com) for our second straight year.  We’ve photographed Huntington Beach, the NCPA Collegiate Nationals, purchased a vinyl cutting machine, and most recently a 5 layer screen print to make our own t-shirts.  We have really just begun in 2008 what we are looking to achieve in 2009.  2008 also brought us this nice new website designed by Pat and Cole with the addition of an E-store so we can come up with t-shirts, hoodies, stickers and other goodies they can be purchased without the hassle of hunting one of us down at an event.

In 2008 between four photographers, (one of which made it to every NEPL, thumbs up to Cole) we shot a total of: 7,316 photos ( that’s the number of posted photos, tack on another 2,000+ for ones that got deleted!).  That isn’t including the few hundred we shot for the new Greg Hastings Paintball game, and the 1,000+ Shane shot for the AXBL NAX Finals. Out of those 7,316 shots the task of each photographer to select 25 of their best shots wasn’t an easy thing to do. Two weeks into 2009, we present you the Best of the Best from each of your favorite PhamousMedia photographers.
