Staal Foundation Open 2017
Even though it was a couple months ago, I figure it's better late then never on posting some of my corporate work. It had been 2 years since I last covered some of the Staal Foundation Open which takes place right here in Thunder Bay, and even then, I only made it to a couple days. This time around, I was able to attend most of the week which allowed me to see so much more of the festivities.

The first day of the event saw the Fountain Tire Classic which included a lot of current and former NHL starts, with none other than Bobby Orr! It was such a great event for the entire crowd in attendance as well as the kids who participated. I got to meet, and photograph all the Staal's too, who make the entire event happen in the first place.
It goes without saying that there as a lot of good golf played too. Not only by the pros but also the celebrities too. Throughout the week I managed to capture so many great golf moments but also everything else form the kid zones, to the volunteers and everyone one else who made this even possible.
I can't wait until next years event as I'm sure it will be just as epic!
Staal Foundation Open
This past week saw the Staal Foundation Open come and go. Luckily, this year I was able to be a part of it in some way. The Walleye, asked if I could spend some time each day photographing the event and gladly said yes. I have done many events in the past but this was my very first professional golf tournament. Suffice it to say I was super excited to get out there and document some of the action.

Without knowing much about the event going in I checked out the website to see what some of the daily highlights were. Along with golf of course, there was always something going on. If you haven't already, and are interested in finding out more about all that went down, head on over to the website.
Without further ado, scroll down to see some of the moments I was able to capture during the event. There was lots of great action and when I wasn't photographing I was able to watch some fantastic golf as well. I can't wait for next year to roll around. I'm sure the event will be even bigger and better then this year. And of course, thanks to The Walleye for asking me to cover the action for them.
