At Maq Brown Photography, we make sports photo day simple, organized, and high-end from start to finish. We photograph everything from individual athletes and single teams to full leagues, schools, and organizations using both traditional and modern composite photography styles.

HERES HOW THE PROCESS WORKS:

1. SCHEDULING & PLANNING

We work directly with the organization, school, or coach to schedule photo day and plan the overall look of the shoot. This includes deciding between traditional photos, custom composites, banners, trading cards, team posters, or a combination of everything.

2. REGISTRATION & ORDERING
Families register online ahead of time through our streamlined system powered by PhotoDay. This eliminates paper forms, cash handling, and confusion on picture day. Athlete names and information entered during registration are used directly on graphics, banners, and products.

3. PHOTO DAY SETUP
On shoot day, we bring a professional studio-style setup directly to your location. Depending on the package selected, we use:

  • Traditional backgrounds

  • Professional lighting

  • Greenscreen technology

  • Custom-designed digital backgrounds

This allows us to create everything from clean traditional team photos to dramatic, high-impact sports composites.

4. INDIVIDUAL PHOTOS
Each athlete is photographed individually using guided posing and professional lighting to create strong, modern images that stand out. We keep the process fast and organized so teams move efficiently while still getting premium-quality results.

5. TEAM PHOTOS
We photograph full teams using either:

  • Traditional team photography

  • Composite team images (where athletes are photographed separately and digitally combined into one dramatic final image)

Composite team photos allow for cleaner layouts, flexible posing, and polished designs that are impossible with standard group photos.

6. EDITING & DESIGN
After the shoot, every image is professionally edited and designed. For composite shoots, we digitally create custom graphics using team colors, logos, textures, lighting effects, and custom-designed backgrounds tailored to the organization.

7. ONLINE GALLERIES & DELIVERY
Families receive secure galleries via our online platform partners, PhotoDay, where they can easily order prints, digitals, buttons, and more. Orders are delivered directly to families, keeping the process stress-free for coaches and organizations.
