Fitness, Yoga & Athletics Portraiture

Samples of my work with various models coaches and athletes

We hiked a short distance along a grassland trail. Lots of bug spray. Flashes on C-stands to left and right. Honeycomb modifiers on them to narrow the band of light. Model: Jesi Ostrowsky using Canon EOS 5DIII + EF 35mm/1.4L @ f/4, 1/640s, iso 200

This is a collection of photos that I have taken over the years of various fitness models, coaches and athletes. I use a very flexible, easy to transport and set up lighting system that syncs directly with my camera. Each session is tailored to light and portray the individual as themselves. For me it’s all about capturing the essence of the person, defined by how I use the setting and light.

We hiked into a nearby park for the setting. Flashes on a c-stand were used for fill lighting. Yoga & Fitness Instructor Lisa Ogelsby Canon EOS 5D MrkIII + SIGMA 85mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art lens f/2.0, 1/3200s, iso 200

This took time to set up. First the setting needed to be cleaned up. Then I spent time setting up my lighting scheme using various flashes and light modifiers. Fitness Model Lindsay Guerra Canon EOS 5D MrkIII + EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II f/4.0, 1/320s, ISO500
