So, I've had an influx of people from the sport industry follow my page. I figured when I posted sports content, I'd add some more value to it. Today I'm going to talk about my top 10 "must have" items for when I'm covering sporting events! I also have all these items linked in my Amazon storefront over on clairekomarek so make sure to check that out as well!⁣
⁣
1. Camera... duh.  I shoot on a Sony A7iii. ⁣
⁣
2. Lenses. I love using my Sony 70-200 2.8 for sports like soccer, football, and baseball. I have a sigma 24-70 2.8 for indoor sports such as basketball. I shoot all my portraits with a Sony 85 1.8 and like to take pregame shots with this too!⁣
⁣
3. Backup batteries and memory cards ALWAYS (invest in cards with high processing speeds. It makes all the difference in sports. It takes a higher numbers of photos in bursts and then processes them faster so you can miss less of those big moments post goal/td/etc.)⁣
⁣
4. Battery Pack for my phone. I'm usually at games about 4 hours before kickoff for football so I like to keep a charger and a battery magsafe pack just so my phone is always charged. ⁣
⁣
5. Iphone compatible card reader for quick edits and sends to clients for social posts. ⁣
⁣
6. Hair ties and lip balm. My favorite is the summerfridays lipbutter balm :) ⁣
⁣
7. Protein Bars. Not every team provides a media meal so you need something with some substance to make it through the day. I love Aloha bars! ⁣
⁣
8. Headphones. Sometimes at games I'm sitting in the crowd and while I do love that most days. Some fans can get a little rowdy and I need to shut out the noise and focus on my job. ⁣
⁣
9. I always have water with me. Some places will allow a clear water-bottle in stadiums so I usually bring one of those to keep hydrated on long shoots. ⁣
⁣
10. Last but not least, Starbucks lol. I always grab a mango dragon fruit refresher pregame. Now that it's getting cold. I might have to switch it up. What's your go to Starbucks order? ⁣
