I recently got the chance to do photography for my love pro wrestling company and loved it!
i have a very basic Nikon DSLR and 50-300mm lens. I think i did pretty well for my first time photographing this sort of thing, and the first time picking up my camera in 10 years.
I was just wondering if anyone had any experience or tips on how to produce better images for the performers i am photographing.

Cheers

    Lighting at venues will always be tough. That’s always the fun part.

    Ringside I like 24-70 2.8 and you can toss in a 70-200 as well if needed. If you have a slower lens, always bump up the iso. I’d rather have a frozen shot with noise than a cleaner shot with motion blur.

    The point of impact is not usually the best shot. When I shoot sports thats what I am going for, but with wrestling, its usually right after. The facial expression, the hair going everywhere.

    Any specific questions, feel free to ask away.
