THE DELLYS 2023
The Dellys is by far my favorite event of the year to photograph. Dellwood Disc Golf hit it out of the park hosting this event.
But really, it was the community that made it so memorable.
If you don’t know what the Dellys is, it is an end of the season awards show for our local disc golf scene that centers around Dellwood Disc Golf’s accumulation of events throughout the year. It’s the final hurrah!
It’s like The Office, a good bye to the season, and pretty much like New Year’s all rolled up into one thing… with great food (thank you Sammy’s), an ice scuplture and a great night at the ROXY (hello Lockport!).

BEHIND THE SCENES
Photo by Kacie Glade. I don’t know how I ended up in here. But I’m here now.
I really want to give a shout out to Sean and Sheila Callahan of Dellwood Disc Golf because we always have this unspoken thing of what we’re all looking for as far as coverage for all of their events.
And for me, that means I’m just winging it out here. I don’t know where I am, or what I’m doing, where I’m going… or what’s going to happen (just kidding, I do know where I am).
But I don’t know what I am doing. Do any of us really know, though?
All I know is there are stage lights and great people that show up just to have a good time here. I take what I know, my tools: a Canon Camera EOS-R, a Samsung phone (that I still don’t fully know how to use), a CD, a sphere, and my heart.
And we make things happen. I just make sure I shoot a ton of B-Roll, BABY! Because life is in the details.
I also explore the relationship between light & life.
Thank you for being here. We don’t always know where we are going, but we know that we are here. So enjoy the moment, for what its worth, while you are here.
Thank you,
Lauren
P.S. If you missed it this year, you need to come out next year. I’m not asking you, I’m telling you. We need you here :)
