Sports Events
Athletes full of passion, unlimited human potential, unique atmosphere, breathtaking views. First-class images from your sports event no matter if its a multi-day ultra race in the wilderness or a small sports festival in the city.
- Alexander Valchev is among the best adventure photographers I have ever had the pleasure the work with. He is very well tempered, extremely dedicated, and hustles hard at every shoot. Alex knows what he wants from a photo, goes through great lengths to achieve it, works independently (which is a great relief when organizing big events), and squeezes out the most from every shot. Most of the time he puts equal or more effort than the athletes themselves. I measure all professionals in the field according to him. Further on, Alex is a great guy whom I consider a dear friend. Working with him is very pleasant and the results are always outstanding. Lion Heart wouldn't be where it is if it wasn't for his hard work, brilliant ethics, and pure love for sport and nature.

I know that the social hype lasts a few days after the race day. This period is crucial if you, as an organizer or event sponsor, want to achieve the most social engagement with the race images. I will provide you with:
– selected set of images for social media posts and press release in a 4-hour period
– all photos up to 72 hours after the event finish
