I chose to shoot my Baruch swim team as my community assignment. Recently we went to Harriman State Park as team bonding trip which included three miles of hiking, one mile running up and down a hill, and then a BBQ. We created the trip to get to know each other because we have both old and new members. After hiking and running, we divided into two groups to play football while some of our teammates were preparing food. We had a great time on the trip and at the end we really got to know each other. Moreover, we had our first swim meet against William Paterson University and it was a good game. I also chose this because I want to show that we don’t just go to swimming practice and then go home. We do a lot of varied activities with our team.

It was a very good idea to show the team engaged as a community outside their normal swim related events. To avoid getting repetitious, the pictures I would suggest are #1, 4 and 6.
Now let’s see them doing what they do best – swimming and competing!
I like the candid photos. Try to stay away from posed group photos I think. It’s better when they are interacting unaware or not effected by the photographers presence.
I think the photos were nicely shot, but I would like to see that this is in fact about a swim team. I get the sense that this team is athletic and very united– but nothing about what they really are.
