SearcySports uses state of the art professional still digital cameras to photograph sports, events and activities. Our specialty is action and candid sports photography. SearcySports will photograph the participants of the events and post the thumbnails online. The participants can then view and order photographs from the web site. I can work with teams, organizations, and events of all sizes to provide professional photographic services. Contact SearcySports to schedule your event(s).

Will you REPOST the images for me if they have already been removed?

SearcySports always keeps all images (even those no longer viewable online). If you want a gallery reposted, there is a $50.00 fee. The gallery will not be reposted until we have received your payment. Once we receive payment, we will repost the gallery. When requesting that we repost the gallery, please include the Name of the Event and the Date. If you have a specific athlete you are interested in viewing, you must also provide that athlete's description, number and color of uniform.

How do we get copies of the photographs?

You can order photographs 2 ways; By using the online ordering system which can be submitted online using your credit card , PayPal, or sent in by postal mail. When ordering online, you must fill out ALL of the fields on the form. A valid email address must be used, or your order will not be processed.

How do I pay for my photographs?

We accept Checks, Credit Cards, Money Orders and cash. If you want to pay for your order by Check or Money Order, we will not process your order until we have received payment from you.

How long does it take to get my prints?

Under normal circumstances you should receive your prints within 10-15 business days after ordering prints (This is about 3 weeks). Occasionally, this delivery time may be slightly longer during busy periods and in some cases...you may get your prints much sooner. If you do need your order to be processed quickly, there is a $15.00 RUSH FEE and you MUST tell us you want the order RUSHED.

Why do the images look bad when I try to print them?

The images you see online are thumbnails and LOW resolution only. To get true photographs of these images, place an order with SearcySports. Trying to obtain low resolution images not only short changes you the customer, but it also makes us look bad....we want everyone to be happy.

Can you just send me the negatives?

SearcySports uses state of the art professional digital photographic equipment to capture images. This means a higher quality product for you. With digital photography, there are no negatives.

Will you send me a full sized digital file?

We normally will not send a customer the digital image. This is what we use to create the photographs you order. If you are insistent on the digital file...remember they are much more expensive than a print. Digital files are 800x600 and sell for $25.00 per image and MUST BE PREPAID!

Can I make copies of the photographs I purchased?

The images you have purchased are copyrighted by SearcySports. If you would like additional copies, please contact SearcySports to order reprints. All contents and photographic images at the SearcySports website are copyrighted material.

Will my images be better than the Low Resolution Images Online?

In a word...YES!! Your images will be clear and sharp, and printed just like a regular photograph. The way the images uploaded online may result in jagged edges if you print them on your own printer. Your ordered photographs will not be like this. If you are not completely satisfied, just return the photos and pay for nothing (you must return the photos for a credit).

The photo I am interested in looks blurry. Will it print better?
Maybe. Although the files that are used to print photos have considerably more resolution than the photos you view on screen, blurry images are exactly that. They are either out of focus or motion-blurred. Why do I display them? Because in many circumstances they may be a one of a kind shot. What you see on screen is comparable to what you'll get on paper in most cases. Sharp photos will be readily apparent and look better the bigger you print them. Unsharp photos will remain unsharp, and may get worse as they are made bigger. Some unsharp photos may look decent at 4"x6" or 5"x7", but will begin to degrade severely as they are made larger. If you have a question about a photo and the quality, please feel free to email me with your questions.
