adidas Basketball - Andy Batt photographs the Pros -
I was invited by adidas Basketball to be a member of their SUPERSHOOT team this summer - a chance to photograph some of the best players in the game. The images just went live at the adidas.com site, and in retail outlets, so I can now share a portfolio of them with you. These are my selects, and my retouching. In order of appearance: Kevin Garnett/Boston Celtics; Tony Allen/Boston Celtics; Jordan Farmar/LA Lakers; Jason Kapono/Toronto Raptors; Jerry Stackhouse/Dallas Mavericks; Daequan Cook/Miami Heat; Dwight Howard/Orlando Magic; Josh Smith/Atlanta Hawks; Tim Duncan/San Antonio Spurs; Tracy McGrady/Houston Rockets. These guys were all amazingly cool to photograph - they had fun, they gave me enough time to get great shots and were professionals to the core.

3 From the Utah Flash




It's nice to flex those studio muscles. Through the magic of "doing it for real" I created these shots to market the NBA's newest D-League team, the Utah Flash. No photoshop trickery. No layers. No motion blur filters. It's great to share the same vision for the job as the client - we both wanted to do this 'real'. He's happy, the client is happy, I'm happy. Rock On.
