Join today's special edition of #CreatorConversations in celebration of #InternationalWomensDay with professional Sports Photographer & #SonyArtisan jeanfruthimages ⚾ Read more on Jean's journey and jump into the comments to ask her any questions about creativity, career advice & photography 👉 "I’ve spent much of my photography career documenting the game and its connection to the culture around the globe, from grassroots to the Major Leagues, with all stops in between. Today there are many talented female photographers and more women working in and around baseball than ever before. Women writers, broadcasters and social media content providers are bringing the ballpark experience to fans around the world. Others have a direct relationship to the game as players, coaches, executives and trainers.

Baseball is slowly becoming more inclusive of women. As it does, the sport gets stronger and grows. As Hall of Fame executive Pat Gillick once said, “Building a baseball team is like building a house. You look for the best architects, the best builders, and then you let them do their jobs.” With a more inclusive and holistic approach, baseball is learning that women have a lot to offer.

Among the mentors and role models who have inspired me, the images above represent a few of the women who stand tall. They are pioneers and share the common traits of perseverance, excellence and a strong constitution.  The enlightening examples they have set have changed how I think, influenced how I shoot and developed the ways in which I tell stories." #SonyAlphaFemale
