Eli Lhymn is a professional sports photographer and videographer based in Los Angeles/Orange County, California. He focuses on capturing true emotion, action, and beauty in sports, and in particular, fastpitch softball.

As a father to a highly-talented softballer, I fell in love with softball. Think baseball, but faster with more action and quicker reaction times. I have watched hundreds of live softball games, practices, and the like. There is a deep beauty in this sport, and I honed my craft to capture just that. My photography and videography approach can be best described by the Japanese proverb, “石の上にも三年 - Ishino uenimo san nen” - which places value on patience as a virtue. I aim to capture the most epic and beautiful moments. I truly believe great photography transcends the format, and serves as a keepsake to those loved ones.
