I am frequently asked how to get started in Paintballphotography and how to get pictures published in the major magazines. Well it very easy to get started in paintballphotography
just grab you camera and go on to the field and start taking pictures. I know this is not exactly the sage advice you were expecting but this is how I started over seven years ago. The answer the second question I can’t answer because I don’t know the answer. I have hundreds of my pictures published in all the major magazines the past several years. It just sort of happened; all the magazines approached me and asked me for pictures. Since I have been doing this longer than just about anyone, I guess I was in the right place at the right time.

I as photographed more and more events I got to know Gio the owner of Hollywood Sports Park and he invited me to take pictures of his field for their web site. Shortly after this I was contacted by Camille from the NPPL and out of the blue and they wanted to know if I would become their first Media Partner. After this I was able to get Media Passes to any event and I took advantage of this. This is how I got to know all the magazine publishers, and I guess they visited my web site and liked what they saw since they started asking me for photos.
