Photography for national and state sporting organisations, pathway programmes and academies, planned around how the photos will be used.
Athletes, leaders and businesses can book Lyle directly too.
Lyle’s main focus is sporting organisations. Athletes, leaders and businesses can book a shoot directly.
Match and event coverage, media days, and photo libraries planned around what your organisation needs to show recruits, funders, sponsors and the board.

Aerial and documentation →Whoever books, each shoot is planned around where the photos will be used.
Most sporting organisations have game-day coverage, media-day portraits and years of social content. What's often missing is the photo a sponsor, a board or a new recruit actually needs.
Show prospective athletes what the pathway looks like.
Show funders what their money supports.
Give the organisation a consistent look all season, and a library to feed its channels from.
Show athletes developing and the programme behind them.
Give partners photos they can actually use.
Supply photos for strategic plans, annual reports and board papers.
Lyle plans each shoot so one photo can do more than one of these jobs.
Most sports photography documents what happened. Lyle's Lens documents what it meant, and builds the photos the organisation will need next.
Lyle's Lens starts with what your organisation needs to show, then plans the photography around it.
The result is a reusable photo library built around your athletes, your programme and your organisation.
Hockey ACT has commissioned Lyle since September 2024, including Canberra Chill home games in 2025 and 2026. The library grew from that work and his own coverage. Photos from it have since been used in Hockey ACT’s selection announcements, programme promotion and its Strategic Plan.

Lucy was selected for the Australian under-21 Jillaroos in 2026.

Lyle leaves space around the athlete when he shoots. That lets one frame be cropped for a report cover, a selection profile or a sponsor banner without losing what makes it work.
The full frame, before cropping.
Room for a title and programme details.
A tighter crop keeps the athletes at the centre.
Space for a partner's message or logo that doesn't cover the action.
These layouts are illustrations of how the frame can be used. They aren't real Hockey ACT documents.
Before anyone picks up a camera, Lyle reviews the photos your organisation already owns against the jobs you need them to do. The Discovery Audit shows what already works, what can be reused, where the gaps are, and whether a new shoot is worth it. It costs $1,200, credited against any work that follows.
Already know what you need? Book a shoot directly. No audit required.
Your library already does the job. You get that in writing.
Where there are gaps, Lyle plans and shoots a library for reporting, sponsors and media, delivered with model and property releases.
A library update each season, first call on dates for selections and campaigns, and an archive that keeps growing.
Signed releases for everyone in frame. Usage rights, scope and any time or territory limits are agreed before the shoot.
Full-resolution, social and print-ready files as standard, with crops in several aspect ratios.
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance. CASA ReOC and RePL for drone work. ACT Working with Vulnerable People registration. Hockey One League media accreditation at all grounds in Australia.
Your files stay on a live delivery platform for at least three years, so you can come back for them.
A funding application, a sponsor renewal or a squad announcement is the wrong time to find out the photo you need was never taken.
