#15 Arizona at UCLA | Los Angeles Photographer

I was pretty excited to heard that I was finally going to get some opportunities to photography football this season. It starts off at the Rose Bowl with two PAC-10 teams facing off, Arizona and UCLA. I got to the Rose Bowl early, just to get situated at the new venue, it is always stressful to relearn things at specific venues. Well little did I know, there was no internet for me to transmit images. Instead I tried to tether my phone, with horrible service, and transmit. It was a complete fail. Well I got to figure it out after the game, at the local Starbucks. Well enough with my rant, here are the photos of the day. So I arrived early to get some pregame shots of everything. Here is the Arizona Wildcat with his flag.

I thought this was really cool, a bruin dressed up in a pumpkin costume.

I always love getting the teams running out of their tunnels. This love affair probably stems from the Ramblin’ Wreck driving out at the Georgia Tech games. Well here is the UCLA team.

And the #15 ranked Arizona team.

The first play of the game was crazy, a kick off return for a touchdown by Arizona wide receiver Juron Criner. The celebration afterwards with Arizona running back Taimi Tutogi.

The Arizona wide receiver must be really good, since he was the one catching most of the passes in the beginning of the game. Juron Criner being mis-tackled by UCLA corner back Andrew Abbott.

I love these type of images of Arizona quarterback Matt Scott.
