I started taken my Olympus camera to every event and built from there (2002).. I would here from people "its like you can read the play" its what I knew from playing the sports. Being 16 years old I couldn't have dreamed where or what my Camera would capture. I have been able to Photograph the New Zealand All Blacks a Highlight so far but I truly enjoy an Amauter game just as much.

MSchroFoto Sports & Event Photography was started based on my vast knowledge of a wide spectrum of Sports. Growing up all across Canada it allowed me to grow with an ever training eye, I like to say name a sport and I've played it.
I grew up buying sports magazines like Hockey News, Sports Illustrated and World Rugby news always looking to see what I like to call "the minute that changed the game" these are the flash of a second rections that only a trained eye can capture with a camera. You can see it in the eyes and frozen body movements.
