An art and art history major concentrating on photography and video, Daniela Bedoya ’24 (SFA) spent the summer of ’23 photographing underwater rugby games (as if rugby wasn’t rough enough?) and interviewing professional female sports photographers, thanks to funding from UConn’s BOLD Women’s Leadership Network. “Women in Sports: Behind the Lens” was born from her love for photography and lifetime as an athlete, she says, and started with her interviewing nine female photographers who either serve as team photographers in national leagues or otherwise focus their work in athletics.
