For the past few years, I’ve covered the NFL draft on assignment for Sports Illustrated.
Since the event itself doesn’t present too many interesting photo opportunities, I always try to find a unique angle. In the past, I’ve photographed it from above, backstage, and even on the stage itself.
The fans that attend the draft are some of the most passionate you will find, so this year I set up a portrait booth on the street outside of Radio City Music Hall and made photos of as many of them as I could.
