VDA Major Kelly Shea's Instagram Takeover for the Boston Press Photographers Association

Last year Kelly Shea earned an honorable mention in the Boston Press Photographers Association (BPPA) student contest for this image captured during her internship with the Springfield Thunderbirds:

Springfield Thunderbirds’ goalie, Phillipe Desrosiers, spits water into the air as part of his pregame ritual.

As a perk of placing in the competition, Kelly was asked to complete a three day takeover of the BPPA Instagram account.

About the experience Kelly wrote: 

Being able to share my work and what it means to me on the Boston Press Photographers' Association Instagram was such an incredible experience. It really allowed me to get my work out there for people to see and to explain why I have a passion for creating photos. I think sports photography seems like it is the exact opposite of an art form so it was such a unique experience to be able to provide insight on the artistic techniques behind it.

You are invited to view Kelly's outstanding imagery and insightful commentary:
