Frequently Asked Questions

How does Metro Sports Images work?

We set up a schedule to cover games and tournaments on a regular basis. We come to your location and shoot the entire game or event. Then, we return to the office and upload the photos and post them to our web site. Photos are generally posted within a week of the event, but may take longer for events with numerous participants.

Do I have to pay to view my child's pictures?

No. All of our photos are available for previewing at no charge. Simply go to the Photo Gallery page and follow the instructions to find your pictures.

How can I get you to shoot our game?

You can request coverage by calling our office at 703-627-5253, or by filling out our coverage request form. We will correspond via email or telephone to let you know if we can cover your game. The further in advance you make your request, the more likely we are to be available that day.

Does Metro Sports Images do Team Photos?

While action photography is our specialty, we also shoot team and individual photos. This request must be made when contacting us to set up the shoot.

How can I make sure you take photos of my child?

Metro Sports Images also offers individual or small-group photography services where one of our photographers will come out specifically to shoot a particular athlete. To learn more, click here.

Do you cover the entire event season, or just individual games?

Metro Sports Images offers full-season event coverage, as well as individual game coverage. You can request either form of coverage by calling our office at 703-627-5253, or by filling out our coverage request form.

What if I don't want to place my order on-line?

If you are uncomfortable with on-line ordering, you can order your prints by phone and send us a check through the mail.

The easiest way to do this is to visit our on-line photo gallery. Write down the event name, category, and the code number of the images you want. Indicate the product(s), the size(s), and the quantity. Then call us to place your order and we will give you a total price over the phone and you can mail us a check. Your images will not be processed until we receive payment.

I see references to orderpicture.com. What is that?
