Sunday Night Fight Night in Long Beach

April 21, 2009 Posted in Freelance

I was asked to do a personal shoot for an up and coming MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) fighter named Darby “The Edge” Falkner this past Sunday in Long Beach. I never shot a fighter nor ever been to a fight so I thought, why not? Well the Friday before the fight the guys from at LiveforMMA.com (Jeff and Erich) asked me to shoot a couple of their other fighters they sponsor while I was there, I happily agreed. The two other fighters were Manny “Bam Bam” Lara and Keneti “Monsta” Faageta. I have to say what a cool experience that was for me, with the media pass I had full access to everything. The shoot was a little challenging since the there was a lot of motion and not tons of light, but I think I manage to pull it off. Unfortunately for LiveforMMA.com they came out 1 out 3 with Bam Bam taking home the only win for them.
