Fitness photography shoots are a whole lot of fun! the guys you’re photographing are always really enthusiastic about going the extra mile to get some good looking shots. Jenn was no different, and even agreed to hop into the ocean as the sun went down to get some really different photos! It was a pretty chilly afternoon too. Have a look at some of the pics:
Fitness competitors Amy and Daniela are in fabulous, competition-ready form, and what better way to celebrate all that hard work than with a photoshoot! They both wanted something a bit out-of-the-ordinary, so we decided on a combat/jungle theme for some late afternoon shots, and then once the sun had set we’d get some twilight bikini shots. The nighttime bikini shots really came out well, but its the ‘combat’ photographs we took earlier in the day that I love. The setting sun was throwing a golden glow through the thick trees of our (top secret!!) location, really highlighting the girls and giving the grass a weird green luminescence. Awesome time of day, and of course with Amy and Daniela the photos always come out well!
Daniela (or Danka) O’Mara is something of a big deal in the Australian world of fitness. Originally from Slovakia but living in Perth now, she has been taking part in Fitness competitions since she was 13 years old… and boy has she got it down to a fine art. Elegant, graceful and artistic, her routines are pretty amazing. So much so that recently she was one of the select few people from around the world invited to Ohio in the U.S. to partake in the internationally renowned ‘Arnold Classic’. Check out her site at www.danielaomara.com for more about this achievement. You can imagine how excited I was when Danka contacted me through Move Fitness to organise a photoshoot. She wanted creative images that portrayed the elegance and strength of her physique… here’s what we came up with:
Here are some of my favourite images from the photoshoot I did for Move Fitness last weekend. I think you’ll agree it would be tough to find better looking models than Caroline, Nikki, Bianca and Dave, so these photos kind of took themselves! We did the shoot at the Canning jetty in Como, a nice spot because of the variety of locations really close together. The strong wind kind of took us by surprise, making things a bit tricky and pretty chilly especially as we got close to sunset. It didn’t detract from the fun we had on the day, and it definitely didn’t detract from the images we got. These guys are in amazing shape, I’m astounded by how much work they put into their bodies. They all competed in the IFBB/WFF comp at the Italian club in Perth yesterday, and did phenomenally well. Dave took out first place in the ‘First Time Body Builder’ category, Bianca came first in the ‘Sports Model’ category, Nikki came fourth in the ‘Novice Figure’ category, and Carolyn came fourth in the ‘Sports Model’ category! Amazing stuff, well done guys!

Amy Fox from Move Fitness here in Perth got in touch with me recently to do some photographs for her. An uber-qualified personal trainer, Amy competes in bodybuilding competitions, one of which was recently held in Perth. Amy and her friends Aaron and Bron were all competing, and wanted some stylish images for their portfolios. We decided the Canning River jetty was a nice and varied location that gave us a few setting options, so met there on a windy afternoon. We managed to squeeze in an hour and a half of shooting (and chasing runaway softboxes!) before the rain came in, and the shots came out real nice. What’s even more impressive than the photographs is the commitment these guys make to staying in shape. Their bodies are incredible, and so is their dedication and resolve. Have a look at the images and see for yourself!
