SAndwell aquatics TRIDENT OPEN MEET 2025

swim photos available now!

Your swim photos are ready!

It was a pleasure to be back at the Sandwell Aquatics Centre to capture your swimmers in action – they were fantastic.

Indoor pools are a tricky environment to photograph in, especially with challenging lighting, the location of windows, lens focal length, and the camera settings needed to freeze the action. I mostly photographed onthe spectator side and couldn’t cover all 10 lanes. However, check the warm-up sections – you might find your swimmers there!

Photos are organized by event. I also photographed the scoreboard between each heat to help you to identify where your swimmers might be more easily.

BUYing PHOTOS

I don’t charge anything to attend a swimming meet - my business is run entirely on photo sales.

Please don’t screenshot the watermarked photos. I’ve kept prices as low as possible to make it easier for parents to purchase professional quality action photos and enjoy these special moments of their child’s achievements for years to come, as well as being able to provide this service for you.

Digital Downloads

All digital images are high-resolution and delivered straight to your inbox as soon as payment is received.

You'll receive an email with a ‘Download Photos’ button. Just click it, then follow the link on the next screen to download your images instantly — perfect for printing, sharing, or keeping as digital memories.

The download link is valid for 7 days, but don’t worry — if it expires, I’ll resend it.

If you run into any issues, just get in touch and I’ll help you out.

SECURE IMAGE BACK-UP

I keep a secure backup of all images after the event, so if you lose your photos or the download link expires, just let me know – I can resend them to you quickly and safely.

Keeping digital backups also means your memories are protected in case your device fails or files get lost.

It’s always a good idea to save your photos in multiple places (like a USB, cloud storage, or external hard drive), but rest assured, I’m here to help if anything goes missing!

Prints

There’s something special about seeing your favourite moments in print.

All print orders are handled by an award-winning professional photographic lab to ensure top-quality results. Orders placed before 1pm (Monday–Friday) are usually printed and dispatched the same day.

The lab offers a variety of print sizes (depending on the image file size), and prints are available in the following finishes:

Gloss

  • Fujicolour Professional DP II Gloss photographic paper

  • 240gsm thickness

  • makes colours pop

Lustre

  • Fujicolour Professional DP II Lustre photographic paper

  • Matt finish

  • 230gsm thickness

If you’re interested in larger prints or custom sizes, just get in touch – I’m happy to help!

Canvases & posters

The photographic lab is also able to create canvases and posters of your photos, producing sharper images, more accurate colours, and better tonal graduation than what you are able to get on the high street. If print quality, longevity, and presentation matter to you, then have a look at the various options available.
