SPORTS PHOTO SPONSORSHIPS

YOUR LOGO | YOUR BRAND | MY IMAGES

Looking for a creative way to reach new customers? Sponsor a game in your area!

Sponsorships are about more than just throwing your name on a sign. This is a unique opportunity to create an impact on the expansive sports community in your area by giving athletes, parents, and sports fans a lifelong keepsake in the form of professional photography. Players and fans will know that you supported their team, and unlike a fence banner, they won't forget it as soon as they leave the field.

I am a professional sports photographer located in Braintree, MA. I regularly work with Braintree High School, and have also partnered with Braintree American Little League, Braintree American Challenger League, the Braintree Baseball Club, Archbishop Williams High School, Thayer Academy and other youth teams in the area. For each game that I photograph, I post a sneak peek of game highlights on Facebook and Instagram, as well as publishing an online gallery on my website. My Facebook posts have anywhere from 1,000 to 5,000+ views depending on the content. Instagram posts have received over 11,000 views.

You now have the chance to have your brand on my photos of sports games in the area. These photos are viewed, downloaded, posted, shared, and used as profile pictures over and over again. The community will be sharing your brand for you!

​

Anyone can sponsor game photos - parents, businesses, and local organizations. Have an upcoming event and want to promote it by putting a message across the bottom of the photos? Let's do it!

WHY SPONSOR A GAME?

I have been photographing sports in the community for many years now. Youth and high school sports are typically played in poorly lit gyms, rinks and fields. Sports photography is expensive, not every parent is able to invest in high end equipment to get quality images of their athlete.

Barriers include the cost of professional cameras, lenses, computers, editing software, insurance, websites, etc. on top of the immense time commitment to photograph and then edit the photos. In the past parents or teams have either hired me to come in and photograph a game for them, or I have sold photos on an individual basis after the game. Many families are already investing heavily in high registration fees, equipment and travel with limited additional resources to invest in quality photographic memories. By sponsoring the photos you provide those images to the community, and in turn the community spreads the word about your. brand.

HOW IT WORKS

Prior to the game I will promote the game on Facebook and Instagram, notifying everyone that your business will be sponsoring the photos. The post will prominently point out that this game's photos are provided free of charge by YOUR COMPANY.

After the game, usually within a day, I will post highlights on Facebook and Instagram, along with a link to where the final gallery will be posted. All of these images will have your business logo on them, and as they are shared on social media, so is your logo!

When all edits are complete I post the finished game gallery on my website, scattering your logo/print ad throughout the gallery. As parents and players scroll through the photos on their phone or computer, your company's name will be visible to them.  If you would like to include a promotion or coupon at this point, we can do that!

THE INVESTMENT

The cost of each sponsorship ranges from $250-$400 depending on the game. The number of team members and length of the game vary by age and sport, which impacts the number of images provided as well as the total time required to shoot and edit the final images. There is only one sponsorship per game.
