During my trip to the LA Kings training camp earlier this week, I had the pleasure of meeting Kasey Spatz. Kasey is an amateur sports photographer who was snapping hundreds of shots of our Kings.
After some pleasant chatting about the Kings, Kasey’s photography and Surly & Scribe, Kasey agreed to put her photography on our site.
Before we proceed, a little bit about the lady behind the lens.
Yes, that is Kasey speeding along in a motocycle. Kasey is a renaissance woman. Yes boys, she is taken.
Kasey is a graduate of California State University of Long Beach, with a degree in Human Development/Sociology. Having grown up in Orange County, Kasey is a long time, long suffering Kings’ fan with a passion befitting of http://www.lakingsnews.com. An unfortunate bi-product is that her brother roots for that other so-called ‘hockey team’ in Southern California. We forgive Kasey for the error of her brother’s ways because, as you are about to see, she is an excellent photographer.
All of the following photos were taken by Kasey. For more of her work, please visit Kasey’s flickr account, crzyb16agirl, here.
There’s a lot of them (102 to be exact), but they are worth the time. So grab a beer, take a seat, and most of all,
Enjoy!
At least I got it here: KASEY SPATZ HAS AN EYE FOR THE KINGS: PHOTOS FROM TRAINING CAMP S U R L Y & S C R I B E Los Ange… [...]
That is an amazing gallery of photos, and a sincere thanks to Kasey for sharing them here! Incredible work. I hope that we see more of her stuff here as the season progresses!
Effing beautiful! Great post Boys… And FANTASTIC photography Kasey Spatz!
These pictures are incredible. Capture a lot of the emotions that the players show and how hard they work. I must admit though, there were a lot of faces I did not immediately recognize…
Please keep these coming !!!
Those are awesome pictures,but I still say the Ducks are a far better team… At least they aren’t the Anaheim Ducks of LA yet..
“Anaheim Ducks of LA”
I dont know if we can allow this kind of profanity on this site. There may have to be repercussions. Bobby, what do you think, about 40 lashes?
I wouldn’t waste time with lashes. I prefer quick and painless justice for Duck fans. There is no sense trying to build character or resolve before execution.
“Ducks are a far better team”… is the profane part…
can you banish peoples usernames? or create a shitlist? this is a major infraction on this blog in my opinion
PS is it Tuesday yet? GO KINGS
That far better team is worse this year than last. That far better team didn’t make the playoffs last. But hey, delusion is fun. Reality can be harsh. Peace.
Ducks are better – LOL
Great pics! I really like the close ups so you can practically see what they are thinking. Great job, Kasey.
Thanks to everyone for the warm comments! Can you all tell that Jeff is my brother? lol
Anyway, I’m honored to be able to share the photos with fellow fans. I’m really trying to find a way now to get a press pass for a game at Staples, since there is no other way to get my camera into the building. In the mean time, I’ll continue to take pictures at practices I go to and any opportunity I get!
I also added some pictures from the Rookie Camp from the week before to the flickr page.
Enjoy!
Does anyone know if the MGM allows SLR cameras into the arena for Frozen Fury?
Niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee .
