Brian Stahl is currently a Photojournalist with WSOC-TV in Charlotte, NC. He works closely with the news department, sports department, and special projects department covering various news stories, features, investigations and sporting events both locally and nationally. Brian graduated from St. John’s University with a degree in TV/Film Production and during his time at St. John’s he worked as a freelance photographer for a local sports stringer. After graduating St. John’s, he joined the New York Mets as a Video Assistant in their Baseball Operations department, helping create scouting tapes for players and coaches from 2006-2008. After getting his start in the News Industry at NY1 as a News Assistant and Photographer, he was hired as a full time Photographer and Editor at News 12 Long Island. Brian spent 10 years at News 12 Long Island, honing his photography and editing skills and was nominated for 3 NY Emmys during his time there. At News 12, he worked closely with the sports department covering the NY Mets, Yankees, Giants, Jets, Rangers, Islanders, Knicks and Nets as well as all local college and high school sports teams. Brian has had the privilege of covering the Belmont Stakes, World Series, Super Bowls, Stanley Cup finals, NBA and MLB All Star games, and NCAA Men’s basketball tournaments. In 2016, he moved with his wife to Seattle, WA where she pursued her doctorate in Band Conducting at the University of Washington. Seattle was a place where Brian’s love for photography and the outdoors came together. When he is not covering sports or hard hitting news, he can be found hiking in the mountains or kayaking the local waters searching for a peaceful picturesque moment to capture. The only thing matched for Brian’s love of the outdoors is his love for shooting sports. The thrill of filming a game and bringing the fans to the field is truly an amazing experience. Brian is also a licensed Part 107 UAS pilot and is available for hire for any video or photo production needs.
