Randy Johnson Photography, which features the best logo in the business, has taken the Hall of Fame pitcher to a wide array of locales with an emphasis on concerts and wildlife, while Griffey received praise recently for his work at the Masters tournament this year.
It’s also notable the Seahawks were playing the Las Vegas Raiders, one of Lynch’s former teams, who are coached by Pete Carroll, one of Lynch’s former coaches. Lynch popped up at Carroll’s introductory news conference to ask the coach a question, and this might just be an evolution of his media career.

If you think about it, Randy Johnson and Ken Griffey Jr. have already embraced photography as their new hustle, touring far-flung spots and snagging stunning shots. Meanwhile, Lynch took a sideline spot facing the Las Vegas Raiders — a nod to his previous stomping grounds and former coach Pete Carroll.
