Steve Fine, the legendary Director of Photography at Sports Illustrated, doesn’t waste time sugar-coating things – he has an opinion and he knows what he wants. Having been at SI for over fifteen years, Steve has amassed a lot of entertaining stories that he shares with us in this interview, as well as a ton of incredible sports photography and insights into what photo buyers want.
