OK, i need some serious opinions on this, as i think me and my brother has thought of something that could be pretty cool. We are both huge sports fans. I coach high school football and track. He is a avid football fan and his son goes to a local high school here. We were discussing this idea....and i thought i would run it by you guys...
We live in a very big high school sports county. There are 4 big high schools and many middle schools. Also there is a big community in terms of pop warner, little league baseball and softball to name a few. My brother and i were thinking on the idea of hiring 4-5 photographers (maybe him and i, his daughter, etc...not sure yet), and going to say all the local h.s. football games on friday night. Take as many action shots as your budget allows. For instance, take 100-200 action shots from each of the local h.s. football games. Have a site dedicated to download only the best action shots for sale. I believe local athletes/parents/grandparents/friends would purchase the nice photographs for presents, etc.
The site would have all the action shots from the previous night's game. The purchaser would go on the site...look around. If they see a shot they particularly like, they have the option to buy prints such as 4x6.....5x8....etc.....We would print these shots out on the highest quality paper...allow for customizing the prints (i.e. name, titles, borders, shading,etc)
I do believe this could be pretty good as there are always kids in school playing sports, and u know as well as me that there is nothing better seeing yourself in an action shot (i.e. football, basketball, soccer, etc). Kind of like these...
Would love any and all ideas if i should pursue this, or if this has any chance of being successful
thanks
