About

This is Switch Hitter.

Switch Hitter media was built on a simple idea: athletes work too hard for ordinary photographs.

We create bold, high-impact sports portraits that give hometown athletes the kind of experience usually reserved for the pros. Dramatic lighting. Big energy. Real personality. No stiff poses. No cookie-cutter team photos.

Because the game is only part of the story.

Behind every uniform is an athlete putting in the hours, finding confidence, taking losses, chasing wins and becoming something bigger along the way. We want to capture that.

I gave it my all to try and make this the best possible design that you can start from.

I don't want to make another sports picture. I want to make THE PICTURE.

The one an athlete posts immediately. The one a parent hangs on the wall. 

The one that still means something years after the uniform doesn’t fit anymore. 

Because seasons end. The story shouldn’t. 

Ready to make something different?

Excellent tutorial, one of the best I've seen and I sorely needed this step-by-step instruction. Thank you!
