Robert Woods

He’s a junior in high school but USC and UCLA are already courting him to come play. He’s known for his speed but he should also be known for his personality. Woods was the nicest athlete I’ve come across in a long time. Complacent about his abilities and impeccable character…and he let me put a Little Red Riding Hood cape on him.

    Dude, that is sick. How many lights did you used? Did you use a fan or wind machine? Nice work. I’ve followed you for a bit and you’re growing exponentially with your portraiture. Killer stuff.

    This picture is outstanding! You really captured an incredible pose. Keep up the good work. This guy should also think about modeling.

    I’ve known Robert since he was “SUPERBOY”, And too see how far he has come and strides he has made it is no surprise to he has come as far as he has.He has a great family presence behind him(mother Sharon,Father Robert),that will only allow him to get better.

    Thanks for writing. I had the same impression of Robert Woods as well. He is a great kid and will be an solid example to other up-and-coming athletes out there. In terms of lighting, I used two lights. The wind blew at the right moment. It was the only photograph I captured with the wind blowing. It doesn’t usually blow at this time of year in Los Angeles. But keep your eyes open…look for him at the next level.

    This is so sick. I went to Serra and everyone is excited about what this kid does on the field. Any chance you could post the original pic ?
