Time to announce that I'll be spending the summer at the ballpark with the Kansas City Monarchs as a photographer!

World champions. Our training ground. 🇦🇷🏠

Welcome, @Argentina

[Eric Graves @EricGravesKMBC]

Welcome to Kansas City, Argentina national team. We’ve got a real treat for you on your first night - a 2 a.m. tornado warning

This is the energy that fires me up.

I want this from co-workers. I want employees so excited to improve & try things & learn & grow & push limits. Our jobs are so much more invigorating when everyone has this energy.

Wemby and Timmy called their shots. They both confidently said they want to be the best at their craft. They want to work hard to be GREAT at their craft.

This is usually where ~hustle culture~ gets quoted, along with work-life balance. And I am alllllll for not mindlessly working for no reason, and I want everyone to have a home life they love (god knows I need that, I have 493 hobbies). But you can really care about being great at your job, AND still have a life outside of work—they’re not antithetical. But having pride in your work makes work better, for you and those around you.

And if we’re being honest? The best do work a lot more, and a lot harder. That’s the reason they’re the best.

Nonchalance is lame. It’s cool to care.

Great tweet from Reggie James

Foreshadowing.
The shadow of downtown KC casts on to high level clouds above the K. One of the coolest pictures I think I’ve gotten lucky enough to take at the K. Especially with where we will be moving to. So cool.

All three goalscorers in one photo 📸 (+ a guy who got his first start tonight 🥹)

A true playmaker 👏

Two assists & a goal earns Calvin Harris a spot on this week's @MLS Team of the Matchday!

THREE GOALS. THREE POINTS.

As I'm cleaning out a Lightroom catalog from 2023-2024, the only thought running through my head is, "Why the heck did I edit, crop, or choose that photo?"

Thank you to all the local media that attended #SportingKC's 2026 Media Day!

Over 80 media members participated in the annual event at Sporting Park ahead of Saturday night's home opener 📸🎥

[Austin @a_vanmeter28]

A lot of frustration plagued K-State's 56-47 loss to Colorado last night. Read the recap from @gmklein32.

@carterrschaffer Thanks Carter! One of those photos you ignore when you shoot it, but while culling after the game, you get pretty excited!

Pregame lighting worked in my favor last night. #KSUSocial
