Football Season is Back!

If you aren’t excited about football season yet, maybe this will get you going. Stock photos of sports, especially football, have not traditionally been that spectacular. They often looked too much like stock photography. The players didn’t look quite right. They had numbers or equipment that didn’t seem to match their position.

But things have changed. There is more of a focus on producing genuine looking images. Photographers are often using athletes instead of models. There are also a growing number of images of actual athletes in action. What better way to make it look real than to have it be real! Thankfully, this type of content is becoming more widespread and available.

Today, we will focus on American football. These are just a few examples of really good football stock images. Don’t worry, soccer fans. We haven’t forgotten you. You are next on the list.
