2. Hometown
Riverside, CA

3. How long have you been shooting
about 6 months.

4. Accomplishments
Meeting some of the best people in paintball, whether shooting a marker or a camera, paintball photography has been a blast!

5. Bio
I guess I'll start with the biggest part of my adult life, and most influential. 
I enlisted in the Marine Corps in 2003. I went overseas to Iraq in 2005-2006, and then back again in 2007-2008. Somewhere in that time frame I picked up a paintball marker. I enjoyed playing tournament paintball for the 1st time this year, but I also found out how much fun paintball photography was, just as it seemed I needed a break from the demands of tournament paintball. I picked up a camera about 6 months ago, and have been in love with it ever since.

6. Goals.
Shooting the 2010 Season, acquiring more photo-gear, possibly going to some PSP events, and contributing whatever I can to the photoMOB.

7. Suggestion for next photomob get together.
HB will definitely have to happen. I think we should figure out some more serious/cool locations from now until then though. Possibly a photomob snow trip.

2. Hometown: Chandler, Az I reside in Tempe, Az minutes away from Arizona State University


3. How long have you been shooting: 4 wonderful years


4. Accomplishments: PhotoMob, Working my way to be recognized both in and out of the paintball community for my photographic work. The only paintball photogapher I know of to shoot game photos out of a helicopter.


5. Bio: The name is Sean Suriano, SS.com for short. I was born and raised in Chandler, Arizona. I got into photograph as I fluke. It was toward the end of my serious paintball career during senior year of high school. I started messing around with a PNS Sony camera shooting pictures of my friends. First semester of my freshman year of college I took a darkroom photography class. I had an awesome professor and that is what got me to start taking photography seriously. That Christmas I recived a Nikon D70s and that's when I took my photos to a some what serious level. Through out the next two years I played less and less, and shot photos more and more. Practices, local tournaments, and my day to day life. The first time I found myself on the sidelines of a national tournament was PSP Phoenix 2008. I had so much fun that I knew I needed to find a way to shoot more nation event in the future. I shot NPPL Huntington Beach and San Diego for the 2008 season. Not quite as many national events as I wanted, but I'm a broke college kid and it's all I could afford. The 2009 season I made a much stronger showing. The season started with PSP Phoenix and USPL Huntington Beach. Then on to USPL West Coast Open. West Coast was some of the most fun I have ever had on a paintball field. I became friends with some of the best paintball photogs there are. Mike Miranda, Micheal Wise, Dan Jordan, Robert Abitia, to name a few. I took a mid season break due to my work schedule. Though I couldn't make national events I keep shooting regional events. I shot three Arizona Paintball Players League (AZPPL) events before I would make it to a naitonal event again. However the second event of AZPPL I got the chance to shoot paintball photos out of helicopter. The next national event I shot was PSP World Cup. World Cup was 4 days of sweat, paintball, shenanigans, and me not wearing a shirt. No Tee's 09 holla! The very next weekend I was in Vegas for USPL/NPPL Las Vegas. All I have to say about Vegas is there was paintball and there was PhotoMob. I plan on making as many PSP and USPL/NPPL events as I can in the next coming seasons. If you really want to find me look at Fort Adobe Paintball in Glendale, Arizona or around the ASU campus.

6. Goals: Shoot as many local, regional, and national events for as long as I can. Outside of paintball I want to push my photography in a positive direction.

7. Suggestion for next photomob get together. 
Off Season: 21+ weekend in Vegas, and something for all of us to do. Weekend by the beach?
Next Season: PhotoMob at as many events as we can.
