I had the pleasure of meeting with this photographer yesterday at work and thought I'd share his site with you guys. Click on the athletes and projects sections. A few years ago Kevin was the only photographer given an all-access pass to the just starting UFC and was there to witness and capture its overnight success. It was all documented in a gigantic (it seemed like it was about 18"X24") 400-page book that weighs at least 50 lbs. Huge, gigantic pages of photos of everything UFC. Before and after shots of the fighters, injuries, behind the scenes, etc. While all other photogs were in the media section, for 4 years he was the only one who was allowed ON the octagon, so the images he captured are quite extraordinary. If you're a fan of the sport, chances are you HAVE seen his work.
