David Buono — Austin Sports Photographer

As former amateur athlete turned professional sports photographer, I combine my firsthand experience on the field with a passion for capturing the intensity, emotion, and energy of the game. Having once played the sports I now photograph, I understand the decisive moments, the drive for victory, and the stories behind every play. From the grit of competition to the thrill of celebration, my goal is to preserve the essence of sports through dynamic imagery that brings every game to life.

What I cover: college football, basketball, baseball and softball across the SEC and Big 12; professional soccer, the NFL and the World Cup; and motorsports including Formula 1, MotoGP, NASCAR and IMSA. Based in Austin, my core coverage is University of Texas athletics — football, basketball, baseball, softball and volleyball.

Credentials and access: credentialed for the University of Texas, Baylor, the SEC, Circuit of the Americas, MLS and the NFL. Images transmit live throughout an event, not only after it. Main galleries deliver same day, with file and stock selects within 24 hours.
