Tracy,
I really appreciate what you do with your pictures and like the fact that you get some great candid shots of fighters.
I was wondering from a professional angle have you ever considered following just one single fighter for an entire event, from training, all the way through post fight. I know you have had the same fighters pictured in all aspects of fighting, I'm just curious if you have ever thought about taking more of a photojournalistic approach and just focus on one subject through the entire grueling process. It seems like most fighters allow you great access to them and I would really like to see what you could do with something like that.
If you ever did take on a project like that, which fighter would you choose to follow and do have any specific reasons for the choice?
She did that with Denis Kang in Japan.
The Kang work was very cool.
JonKellett - The Kang work was very cool.
But also a curse
Wait....whent the fack did Fabes become a MOD?!?!?!?!?
She is seductive and attractive.
I think Denis' curse were the upkicks he ate from Mousasi, not Tracy.
Tracy is very good at what she does and well respected by the fighters she covers and she is seductive and attractive.
TexV2 -Wait....whent the fack did Fabes become a MOD?!?!?!?!?
hmmm, interesting indeed.
I'm not a Mod. Its just a glitch the with the new site.
I'm powerless.
I saw the Kang stuff and liked it, but unless I missed it (which is highly possible) I didn't see any fight, or post fight stuff. If I did miss it, I apologize.
I guess what I'm talking about is Tracy's photos, but also her descriptions of not only what is going on in the pictures, but the emotions that were taking place, the trials and tribulations etc. I hate the term "hard-hitting" but I'm referring to a project that maybe gets a little more in-depth with the fighter and what they go through from start to finish.
Don't get me wrong I have zero criticisms of Tracy's work, I just think she would be the perfect candidate to take on the type of project I'm talking about. I hope she gets a chance to see this and offer her opinions.

Hey MNFAN- I actually kinda did that with Kang. If you read my blogs, I went to Vancouver in middle of April for his training camp, then met him in japan and followed him for a week through cutting, fight, and post fight...
There are 5 blog total i think...
Okay, I only saw three, like I said I figure I may have missed it. I'll go back and look.
Keep up the good work.
