Sports Photography
At CJL Photography, I specialise in capturing the intensity, emotion, and defining moments that make sport so memorable. From combat sports and motorsport to corporate charity golf events, my focus is on documenting the action as it unfolds while creating professional, high-quality images that athletes, teams, organisers, and sponsors can proudly share.
Having photographed events including the Australian Muay Thai Association Queensland Open, Queensland Drift Matsuri, and a range of charity golf days, I understand how to work in fast-paced environments and capture the moments that matter most.

Sport happens in an instant. Whether it's a perfectly timed strike in the ring, a drift car pushing through a corner, or a golfer celebrating a great shot, I work to capture the energy, skill, and emotion behind every moment.

My Process
Confirm details
 
To help me capture the excitement and key moments of your sporting event, I’ll need a few details beforehand. This includes the venue location, event date and timing, competition schedule, participating teams or athletes, and any specific moments, individuals, or activities you’d like photographed. Providing this information in advance helps ensure I’m in the right place at the right time to capture all the action.
Shooting Day
 
Professional sports photography helps clubs, teams, and organisations engage their audiences and promote their achievements. I capture action shots, team photos, presentations, and behind-the-scenes moments, providing powerful imagery for websites, social media, publications, and promotional materials.
After the shoot
 
Once the game, match, or event is complete, I professionally edit and curate the images to showcase the action, emotion, and key moments of the day. I take the time to carefully select and edit the strongest images, highlighting the skill, determination, and energy of the athletes and teams involved. Once the editing is complete, I'll send through your gallery link and download code. Most galleries are delivered within 1 to 2 weeks, however turnaround times may extend to up to 4 weeks during busier periods depending on workload.
