Hayley the photographer!

Tuesday night Hayley got the chance to shoot the Carolina men’s basketball game against Tennessee State sitting down on the baseline with the professional photographers. It was an amazing night, Jeff and I were just excited for her to have such a cool experience. Watching her down there was really fantastic.

She took my Nikon and did a great job. When we got home, I looked at the photos — they turned out to be even better than we expected, some are really quite good. She really does have a nice eye for what a good photograph looks like.

Hayley shooting:

I have a dear friend who is editor of the newspaper in Kinston, which is the hometown of a UNC player Reggie Bullock. Bullock was injured last season and last night, he had a fantastic game. I showed him the photos and he asked if the newspaper could use the Reggie photo she took.

So at 13, Hayley has her first published photo: http://www.kinston.com/articles/chapel-78079-victory-hill.html. Update And then Bryan followed up and mentioned how good they were in his blog, Blogging with Bryan C. Hanks with a link to all of them.

I think this one is my favorite photo:
