This photo was taken immediately after the 1st Annual Hoops On Mission All-Star Game. I call it a dream come true because this is something that Hoops On Mission founder Dwayne Jackson has been talking about for a while. It’s a beautiful thing to see someone have a vision, then put in the work it takes to make that vision a reality. It was inspiring. The young men in this photo are the first group of hoopers that I shot when I first moved back to SWFL and decided I wanted to take my sports photography to the next level. They were all sophomores and most were already playing varsity basketball. I knew they would be a special group… I just didn’t know they would have this big of an effect on my life. Thank you and this is only the beginning.
