Action Portraits -- Drew and Ben

Hello, and welcome to my first gallery of Action Portraits!  Typically as a sporting event, most of my photos are action and candid photos.  On the other hand, at the portrait workshops I've attended, all the photos were posed portraits.  I've always been wondering how the pictures would look if I could actually 'pose the action.'  Well, here is my first gallery.  Drew and Ben are brothers, and they are competitive swimmers in their age groups.  Neither have had any modeling experience -- they are 'just' athletes.  All of the following pictures (including the 'action' photos), are 'posed'.  I hope to have more examples in the future!  Thanks again Drew and Ben for being such a pleasure to work with!

(These pictures are posted here for browsing only.  The athletes will receive a copy of their full galleries on CD, as well as free prints of their favorite photos.)
