Photography Guidelines

Flash Photography

Photographers using remote flash / strobe units at OSAA member schools should clear installation with athletic directors of OSAA member schools in advance of an event.
For use of units at OSAA state championship sites coordinated by the OSAA, please contact OSAA Director of Media Communications Nate Lowery, 503-860-7683 / natel@osaa.org.
Remote flash / strobe units should be used wherever possible.
Those utilizing on and off-camera flash / strobe units should avoid shooting directly into participants' eyes.

Designated Photography Locations

Note: The OSAA or game officials may alter the following photography locations due to safety or to accommodate a specific facility.

Baseball / Softball

Designated areas along the first and third baselines (must be designated dead ball areas).

Basketball

Each end of the court. Set up at least 10 feet behind the end line.

Cheerleading

At least 10 feet off the competition mat and out of the direct line of the judges.

Cross Country

When shooting the start, photographers must give the field a minimum of 50 yards to allow for time to shoot and move off the course. Photographers may shoot from either side at the finish line in designated areas, but are not allowed in the race path.

Football

Sidelines except within the team boxes. Set up at least five yards behind the sideline.

Golf

Observe golf etiquette. Be aware of camera noise; shoot only after the ball is struck. Remain off greens and tee boxes.

Soccer

Sidelines (except within the team boxes) and endlines between the 18-yard box and the corners of the field. Set up at least five yards behind the sideline or endline.

Swimming

Corners of the bulkhead. Allow space for officials to walk both sides of the pool. Due to use of sound and flash starting systems, avoid flash photography during the start of a race.

Tennis

Either side of the net and the corners of the court. Do not change positions until the players have switched sides.

Track & Field

In all events, consider the safety of yourself and the participants and provide a reasonable cushion. Provide a 40-meter cushion when shooting sprints and hurdles head on. Remain off the shot put, discus and javelin fields.

Volleyball

Set up to shoot at least 10 feet off the court. If shooting at the net, remain behind the officials and do not set up between adjacent courts.

Wrestling

At least four feet off the mat. Shooting from the team corners and interfering with sight lines are prohibited.
