“I throw (my camera) on sports mode and put my shutter speed really high to shoot those moments,” she said, adding tip-offs and free throws often provide good opportunities for shots.
This will be the first time taking on BRIT for a few of the club’s budding photographers.
“Photography is a way of expressing yourself through a lens,” said Isha Noor. “I really like that because I haven’t had that experience because it’s my first year.”
While the tournament atmosphere can be challenging, it can also lead to some one-of-a-kind images.

BRIT started Thursday afternoon and runs through Saturday at Bedford Road Collegiate. The tournament final will be broadcast Saturday at 9 p.m.on Shaw TV.
