His photos have been published all over the world, including in French sports magazine L'Equipe, premier German magazine Stern, and the USA's Sports Illustrated.
In a magical four-day period in autumn 2015, both of Texas's NFL teams played at home on different days, a major high school rivalry was set for Friday night in West Texas, and a fierce regional rivalry came to the Cotton Bowl on Saturday afternoon. Pigskin Rapture: Four Days in the Life of Texas Football captures not just the action on the field, but perhaps more importantly, the pageantry off the field as well: cheerleaders, tailgate parties, booster club rallies, homecoming coronations, skybox parties, the bar scene, and more.With hundreds of stunning full-color photographs and meticulous reporting on the games and events, this book provides both the die-hard and casual football fan everything they need to feel part of the action!
