B. Alyssa Trofort Photography

Just a photographer that loves photographing people being their best selves... oh and I love sports and traveling!

I’m so excited to finally share something I’ve been working on behind the scenes — the Media Day Posing Guide for Basketball 📸🏀 Media days have always been one of my favorite parts of sports photography. The energy, the personalities, and the challenge of capturing athletes at their best in such a fast-paced environment — I love it all. That’s exactly why I created this guide: to help other photographers feel confident walking into media day with a plan. Inside, I’ve included poses, tips, and workflow hacks I use to keep shoots smooth, efficient, and creative. Can’t wait to see how this helps photographers level up their media day game 🙌

“Showing is better than telling.”

Floyd Mayweather

Model: Pierre Abena

Wardrobe Stylist: Jamar Hart

This is to motivate photographers that believe you need “A LOT” of equipment to create! YOU ARE WRONG!

For this shoot I used ONLY a 1 light set up. Here’s a break down and bts of the images above using a Paul C Buff‘s AlienBees Flash units with a 47” Foldable Octabox. The key is placing your light in the right position for your subject! Being that there was some natural light coming into the gym, I used that to my advantage, and allowed that light to either be my key light or fill light throughout this shoot.

More images from this shoot can be seen below!
