Nantucket Golf
June 30, 2007 by David Bergman
This Month Golf Magazine hired me to shoot an assignment in Nantucket, MA. We only had a couple of days to get through a number of different setups.
Unfortunately, Mother Nature doesn’t care about deadlines or flight schedules. The original time we booked for this shoot was rained out, so we rescheduled for the next morning. It was grey and overcast, but thanks to the four cases of lighting gear I brought, I was able to make it look like a nice, sunny day.
For this particular shot, I put my life in the hands of golf pro Kevin Walker. I was lying down in the grass about two feet in front of the ball while he swung at full strength.
 
I’ve put myself in some hairy situations before, but next time I think I’ll shoot this with a remote camera.
