What we do
It's pretty simple: we go to AVP events and shoot the matches. We then put the photos online where you can get copies.
Digital copies with the FatSpike watermark are yours free for personal usage, like printing, desktop wallpaper, blogs, etc. Check out
how to share photos.
You can also buy prints or digital copies which come
without the watermark. Prints are great quality and
guaranteed to be to your liking. And they keep the site going.
Commercial licenses are available as well. Please contact us about this (see below).
Background
<-- That's me (
Jason). I design Web applications and work as a freelance
photographer part-time.
I started shooting AVP events in Santa Barbara a few years ago, and then began putting all the photos online for friends to check out. Players and fans started finding photos via search engines and asking for shots.
With all the demand, I figured the photos warranted a site all their own, hence FatSpike was born.
Your site's really neat. How'd you do it?
FatSpike is powered by
SmugMug. We think it's the bomb-diggity for photo sharing.
