Here are some tips to shoot sports photography:
- Timing is very crucial in sports photography and this comes from practice.
- Pre-planning is very important in sports photography. Better if you would visit the venue before the event.
- Know the sport you are going to shoot, analyze the action of players, check with the organizers about the does and don’ts at the time of the event.
