This is Tim!

My social issue was gay-marriage. Not only was I speaking on gay-marriage but on same sex relationships in general. I took pictures and you can’t really distinguish between a boy and girl. That’s not what matters. In the end, it’s all the same love.

 

             

Photojournalism is particular style of journalism that involved using photographs of an event or place in time, used to tell a story. Cheer seems to be something close to me that I feel I could connect well with. For my photojournalism project, I chose to do it on cheer. I was able to capture pictures of the JV team doing what they do best: cheering, performing, and most importantly, having fun!

In my photos, there exist a lot of variation. Through the pictures of the girls cheering, you can see how they all are uniformed. It looks clean because everyone is all nice and neat look. Although appearance isn’t a number one life priority, uniformity never hurts. I was able to capture pictures of some of the girl’s in mid cheer. They have really focused faces on. They’re either thinking too hard of what they are doing or they are really in to the game. Nothing wrong with that, right? Thankfully, our JV football team was able to get the win against Valley last Friday. This was an advantage for me because I know how hard it is to keep the energy up when your team is struggling. You sort of feel like you’re struggling with them. With such excitement, the girls were able to have a little bit more fun throughout the game. I felt as if I was able to capture everyone’s spirit through my pictures.

I was also able to take photographs while the girls were stunting. Stunting takes a lot of strength. Just like any other sport, practice makes you better. With stunting, as you and your group get better, you are able to do more elite stuff in the air. I took some photos of them stunting at what I would consider a well-rounded, and solid stunt. We call it an extension and it becomes easier the more you do it. Stunting teaches a lot of teamwork. To be successful, you must learn to work cohesively with your stunt group. I liked these pictures because I get the sense of team motivation. I have never met such a motivational group of girls before. Everyone does things a little bit different so it sometimes takes a while to get use to everyone. With perseverance, a stunt group can be extremely successful. There is definitely a lot of bumps and bruises along the way, but in the end it’s all worth it because you feel a sense of accomplishment. Great things can happen when everyone learns to work together.

The reason I chose to do my photojournalism on cheer is because I feel I could capture moments that I could relate too. Throughout high school, cheer has been the only thing I had become committed with. I dedicate a lot of time to it, as well as the rest of the team. After cheering for a while, you learn the true meaning of true teamwork. You learn how choices you make effect everyone around you, whether it’s with being ineligible, behaving poorly, or not prioritizing/managing your time well. I liked my photos because I feel it captured our story. It shows our strength, spirit, and it also shows how much fun we have.

This first one, I took at a Sac City football game.

This second one, I took at a restaurant that was on the beach.
