🔥💥 HEART OF A CHAMPION 💥🔥
Months in the making. Every frame, every word, every ounce of passion poured into this portfolio. I bled for this project because hockey isn’t just a sport, it’s a battlefield, a brotherhood, and a story worth capturing with fire in the lens. I gave this to the Generals last season with everything I had. Silence came back, but I don’t play for silence, I play for legacy.

So here it is, raw and real, paired with Heart of a Champion because that’s exactly what this is. Not just photos, not just words, this is history frozen in time. 📸🏒⚡

If you’ve ever fought for your shot, chased the win, or carried the weight of a dream, this one’s for you. 👊
