As a photographer, specialising in high-end corporate photography, I was commissioned by Sporta to photograph their new brochure. The assignement was very broad, because I had to photograph sporters, but also their accommodation and training facilities at their sports centre in Tongerlo, Belgium.
One of the images we did was of an athlete who was busy training on the athletic track. We wanted a high-impact image that could run as a double spread in the brochure.
The final result is the image below. It was shot during a sunny day, but by adjusting the lighting, using 2 Nikon SB 900’s flashes and little post-production in lightroom, we created this image (shot on Nikon D3x). The hardest part of the image was to direct the athlete to be at the right place in the right position.
