2020 CrossFit Open

The CrossFit Open has become one of my favorite events to photograph throughout the year. For five weeks the CrossFit community comes together to compete, encourage, suffer, and test our fitness together. I love the combination of portraiture, athleticism, and excitement each week provides. This year I was only able to photograph four of the five workouts. Please enjoy all the muscles and pain faces below!

The Davis Sisters

This shoot for the amazingly talented Davis Sisters took place at Wilhelmina Denver with their cyclorama wall as a background. We took these images for their upcoming website and other media for the launch of their first album! The Davis Sisters are a group you’re definitely going to want to keep an eye out for. Their talent is matched by their beauty and kindness and I can’t wait to see how far they go.

Aviator Nation - California Lifestyle Brand in Colorado

Aviator Nation is a 1970s inspired California lifestyle brand. Their handmade pieces are perfect for the beach, but the company wanted to see how they would fare in the mountains of Colorado. To test out the versatility of the quality and style, I decided to take Aviator Nation rock climbing with a couple of local climbers. We headed up to Boulder, Colorado for some top notch bouldering in one of the best rock climbing areas in the country. I gave minimal direction, and let Brooke and Garrett do their rock climbing thing. I love the final result of the colors against the rock with the chalky highlights sprinkled throughout. I think it’s safe to say Aviator Nation looks as good in the mountains as it does on the beach!

The Colemans - Okinawa Family Session

When I had the chance to go back to Okinawa, Japan this October, setting up a family session with Natasha and her family was a top priority. As you likely can already see, the Coleman’s are ridiculously beautiful. They’re also exceptionally cool and kind. I feel privileged to have been able to photograph them in Okinawa, a place that still feels very much like home to me.
