Tom was on a shoot for Epipen in Miami.  Ever the curious, he noticed a major event was being set up across the street from his hotel. It turned out to be a National Triathlon. 

He decided to get up early on the morning of the tech scout to see if there was a story to tell.  He walked into the event with three professional Nikons around his neck and people figured he was supposed to be there. “I talked with competitors and made images of the entire triathlon. The light was absolutely perfect, and I was able to create a fun new body of work,” says Tom. As he walked back into the hotel lobby, his client (CD) was getting a cup of coffee and asked what he had been doing. Tom showed her some of the images on the back of his cameras. There was enough for a promo and he asked her if she might be willing to design it for him. She agreed, and he mailed out around 3,000 of them. Tom entered the promo into the Addy awards and was thrilled to call his CD letting her know he had won a Silver Addy.  See more of Tom’s Triathlon images here .
