It was a lot of fun covering this game as both teams looked great and both sets of fans were loud and a ton of fun!  I only wish that Chelsea would have played more starters, but beggars can’t be choosers!  Here are some fun shots from the day…

These 3 guys drove all the way from Chicago for the game and I thought it would be a fun photo!

Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood were in the house!

Chelsea’s Saloman Kalou heads the ball on goal amidst quite a few Club America defenders…

Club America goaltender Armando Navarrete dives to keep the ball out of his goal…

Club America’s Salvador Cabanas wins the 50/50 ball…

I just thought the first photo was funny!  Amrmando Navarrete makes another save on the second.

I don’t think that this is really legal…

I think Chelsea’s Michael Mancienne is doing his best Michael Jackson impersonation before chasing down Club America’s Guillermo Cerda…

An even better look at the action…

A 50/50 ball between Chelsea’s Andriy Shevchenko and Club America’s Jesus Sanchez.  Michael Essian shows off some fancy dribbling…

A closeup of the shot of Chelsea’s Franco Di Santo getting past Club America’s goaltender Armando Navarrete for the first goal of the game…

Chelsea’s Claudio Pizarro tries to power a shot by some Club America defenders…

Chelsea’s Florent Malouda celebrates after the second goal of the game.  I like the second shot of the frustrated Club America goalie in the foreground while the Chelsea players celebrate in the background…

OK, here’s one for the ladies… Franco Di Santo…

And a couple of shots of Chelsea captain John Terry and the team celebrating their victory!

OK, this post is for all of my friends and family who live across the pond!  I am covering the World Football(Soccer to us Americans) Challenge match between Chelsea and Club America(from Mexico).  I attended the practice session tonight and it was a ton of fun seeing these guys in action!  Tomorrow’s game should be a ton of fun as well!  Here are some shots from tonight…

The Chelsea Press Conference with Head coach Carlo Ancelotti and Superstar Michael Essian…

Michael Essian laughs at a question about playing in the US when his contract is up.

John Terry warming up and joking around with the crowd.  He actually kicked a ball to me, but my return kick was pretty lousy!(It’s been awhile since I played!)

They played a game sort of like “keep away” during practice and Frank Lampard is trying to get the ball from his teammates.

I think John Terry is cheating a bit here by grabbing Ashley Cole’s jersey!

All-World Goalkeeper Petr Cech in action…

Backup goalie Henrique Hilario throws a souvenir ball out to some fans…

Even though it was just a practice session, the Chelsea banners were already hanging!  I can just image how many will be at the real game!(I heard they are expecting over 80,000 people!

Didier Drogba tries to show Portland Trailblazer Lamarcus Aldridge how to kick the ball!(It was pretty entertaining!)

A couple more…A fan gave Didier Drogma a horn and he tries to blow it.  Funny stuff!

I think the game will be fantastic tomorrow and I hope to get some killer shots for my European friends!

OK, I know it’s bad when my mom tells me that I haven’t updated my blog in a while!  Sorry mom!  It has been a hectic few weeks with all the shooting that I have been doing! I promise to post a ton more fun things very soon as well!

I photographed Stephanie and Brian a couple of weeks ago and we had a great time and got some really cool shots!  I can’t wait for the wedding!  Here are a few…

What a fun couple!

Holding hands…

A cute one and a sexy one!

Once again, I find a parking garage!
