The whole thing with these pictures is that the photographer not only shot them with his Instagram app on his iPhone but inside the men's bathroom at Yankee's stadium. I just don't understand why the bathroom was the only place this guy had to photograph the team. The article doesn't do a good job of explaining anything. But it could really be any number of reasons why. Maybe he just showed up for a consultation and they told him that actually they needed him to do the shoot right then and there because they wouldn't be able to do it any other time. Whatever the case may be at least you don't actually see the bathroom in any of the shots.
Now I know a lot of people poo-poo the thought of people shooting with their phone. Personally I think it doesn't matter what you shoot with as long as you know what you're doing. Apple has really stepped up their resolution for their cameras and some of the best concert shots I've ever taken were on my phone. Sure it may make some people lazy in their shooting but don't the people who shot with film 20 or 30 years ago think the same thing about us digital age photographers now? These photos are just as good as what he may have produced with an actual camera but I love the feel of these. The border is a little much but I personally hate hate hate borders on photos.
