CCSF Womens Soccer defeats Skyline 3-1

Headed back to City College of San Francisco for CCSF Rams Womens Soccer first playoff game.

City defeated Skyline in an exciting 3-1 victory.

City College is such a cool place to photograph, a brand new field on the east side of campus perched upon a hill where "the fog comes on little cat feet" overlooking the south side of the city

CCSF Women's Soccer Team

Headed over to City College of San Francisco to photograph the women's soccer team photo.

It's crazy to think that three years ago they didn't win a single game, but then after my buddy Gabe Saucedo came in as head coach, turned around the program, last year they were Conference Champions and this year they are headed for the playoffs!

While waiting for a few of the players to get out of class, some of the girls took the opportunity to pose for some pictures.

And be a lil silly =)

Santa Rosa Junior College Women's Soccer defeats City College of San Francisco 3-1

Headed over to CCSF today for the women's soccer game against Santa Rosa Junior College.

Also caught the head shots of two girls who weren't able to make it out last week. Interesting to note, was so overcast, didn't need anything to soften the light, and just used low power on camera flash, and they were nearly identical end result as the ones taken last week!

Though California community colleges operate independently of the national junior colleges (because there's so many, hurray for California and providing opportunities for continuing education!) apparently SRJC women's soccer is ranked highest in the nation at the moment.

CCSF put up a good fight against them and scored one goal, but couldn't come back from the three scored against them. It's still early in the season and this will be a great game to build off of in the future.

CCSF has an awesome, brand new, turf field, one they don't share with football or track which is nearly unheard of in community college sports!

And with a solid wall on one side and overlooking the city on another, it's a great place to photograph soccer!

City College of San Francisco Rams Women's Soccer Headshots

Headed over to City College of San Francisco to photograph the Rams Women's Soccer team headshots.

We were certainly dealing with some wind issues, but that can be slightly controlled with photoshop =)

Unfortunately I won't be photographing Cal's head shots this season, but I'm very excited to photograph college athletics both action and portraits for CollegiatePhotos.com

Big thanks to their head coach, my buddy Gabe Saucedo, who helped connect me to CCSF and was also the guinea pig for lighting... good thing I picked up a translucent zip disk from Calumet on the way... perfect way to help flatten those harsh shadows on the face! Thanks to the staff and girls who helped hold it too!
