Decision Magazine hired me to follow UGA head coach Mark Richt. I was asked to also get photos of his wife Katharyn Richt.
If it worked out I was to try and get photos of them together. That never happened, but I stuck with the coach and his wife the day.

I arrived really early and met Katharyn early sitting in the stands.

While this will win no awards it is starting with the safe shots to be sure I had some good expressions.

I liked this photo much better even tho I cannot see her face as well she is doing what she does every game to help support the team and Mark.
The magazine picked that photo and one more of Mark interacting with one of the players.

Now at this point in the season the top running back in the country is UGA #3 Todd Gurley. I really tried to get a photo of him with the coach. The best I did that day was this shot, but the ƒ/5.6 was too shallow to show Mark clearly in the photo in the background.

Mark Richt is on the far right with headset. Well I just missed it. Just a few days later the suspension by the NCAA came out so he was definitely out of the magazine piece. It would have pulled the attention away from the storyline.
Here are the selects that I gave the editor.
