The Cut is your athlete’s personal game-day story—captured from pregame jitters to postgame highs. I’m there not to cover a game, but to zero in on your player. The moments between plays. The fire in their eyes. The bond with their teammates. The stuff team photographers miss? That’s where I live.
This isn’t your average gallery. It’s a curated set of bold, dramatic images that highlight everything your athlete brings to the field, court, or diamond.
Because you’ve seen the team gallery. And let’s be honest—it’s just not enough.
The Cut is for the parent who’s tired of playing “Where’s Waldo” in every photo drop. It’s for the athlete who’s poured hours into practice, workouts, and game-day prep. It’s for the kid who shows up big—on the field, on the court, in the dugout—and deserves to be seen that way.
We’re not capturing stats. We’re capturing identity. Their leadership. Their drive. Their hustle. That subtle smile after a big play. The deep breath before the first pitch. The chest bump with a teammate. It’s all part of the story—and now you’ll have the photos to prove it.

Marshall worked so well with all the kids! If they had an idea for a pose they wanted to do, Marshall delivered. He helped pull out their personalities and made it really fun for them. He sent the edited photo galleries in a timely manner and the quality of the shots were amazing!

Marshall is absolutely fantastic to work with. He communicates quickly and makes scheduling so easy. Our media day session was easy, and the girls had a blast on his set. And his photography speaks for itself - he's so good. My senior players loved the designs he created for our stadium banners. I can't wait to work with Marshall for our next photoshoot!

I hired Marshall to do photo shoots for our basketball, soccer, tennis, cross country, volleyball, cheer and dance teams. He was so easy to work with, and the shoots were smooth. On top of that, he turned our team galleries around quickly and the photos were awesome, which the parents loved!
I've been taking sports photographs for nearly 20 years, and have had the privilege of shooting everything from 6U softball to SEC football under the lights in Neyland Stadium.
I pride myself in the photographs I deliver to my clients, and the customer experience I provide. When is the last time you said to yourself, "wow, I love my team photographer!"? Probably not until now.
When I'm not shooting games, I love spending time with my wife, a teacher in Hamilton County, and hanging out with my two kids, Eleanor and Henry. I also serve on the board of directors for Signal Mountain Youth Softball.
