Rollergirl Portrait Project

I have been working on a rollergirl portrait series for the past few months. I photographed the Hellcats the other day and thought I'd share some of the images. The Hellcats are one of five teams that comprise the TXRD. The TXRD is a skater owned/operated league here in Austin. If you haven't had a chance to check out a bout yet, I highly recommend it. These girls are rough, tough and mean business. The roller derby happens at the Austin Convention Center a couple of times a month. Check out their website for the next match. - brian
