Oakland Roots x Chloe Jackman Photography | Joy, Power & Legendary Moments

Young fans repping the Roots with a handmade sign

The Oakland Roots harness the magic of Oakland and the power of sports as a force for social good. Their mission is to increase the health, equity, and happiness of Oakland by building a sustainable and valuable pro sports club with winning teams that develop talent and a world-class brand.

Thank you to our dear friend and part owner of the Roots, Akilah Cadet - Change Cadet, for inviting us to join in on the party! Our very own Alex had the cool gig of being Akilah's personal photographer for the night, snapping some epic shots with the likes of W. Kamau Bell, Rafael Casal, and the legendary Too $hort! Meanwhile, Mike and Chloe were having a blast at the CJP Photo Lounge in the luxury boxes, capturing all the amazing humans, including TJ Ward, Sibley Scoles, Marc Spears, Faatimah A, and so many more fantastic folks. Oh, and let's just say Chloe and Too $hort shared a truly hilarious, very "CJP" moment! 😉
