Kobe Bryant


"Kobe. 

Just the name alone, makes me think of greatness, because that's what Kobe is: an-all time great.

We first met in Orlando in 1995. He was a rookie and I was shooting for Upper Deck trading cards. I had him on a trampoline. This is something I used a few times with him - he was the best ever I've seen on a trampoline. We have worked together many times throughout his career. Kobe is an interesting, intelligent, driven world-class basketball player. 

I've shot a lot of athletes in my time, but a Kobe only comes along once. 

Here are 24 of my favorite photographs from a career shooting No. 24. "
