We were SO honored to have been a part of such a historic day for Orlando!!! Today was the opening game for Orlando City Soccer Club, our home team, the Lions!!!!! Our Orlando Lions played the New York City Football Club, and what an exciting game! We actually started capturing shots today prior to the game, first in the Fan Zone, outside the Orlando Citrus Bowl. Fans were pregaming, tailgating, or interacting with the many local vendors and sponsors supporting our new Central Florida Soccer Team! We captured the players being warmly welcomed into the stadium, then after the national anthem and introduction of the OCSC players, we photographed kickoff and some awesome action shots from the soccer field. Part of our responsibility was to capture the energy of the crowd from around the entire Citrus Bowl, so we did just that, and we didn’t have to look far! We were even able to grab the celebration following Kaká’s amazing goal later in the game! We cannot thank Orlando City Soccer Club enough for bringing us aboard for this historic day, and we CANNOT wait for the next games of the season!!
