While I was travelling this month I had the pleasure to be a guest at CrossFit Max Effort in Las Vegas.  Everyone there was really nice and friendly and the gym itself is huge and very well equipped.  Lindsay, one of the owners of the gym, was kind enough to let me photograph her for […]

Sports photography was something that I tried my hand at for the first time in 2013 and I think that for the first year it was a smashing success! Huge thanks to CrossFit Manassas for letting me use the gym to photograph the I am CrossFit series this past year.  Doug and Jenny have been […]

  It has been just about a year since I started the I am CrossFit project and did my first shoot with Jamie. One of the questions that I have gotten most frequently is, “When are you going to let someone photograph you for the project?” My initial answer was to hedge and change the subject.  Photographers, above […]

What is my favorite thing about Crossfit? Hands down the community! I started crossfit over 6 years ago and up until the last year, majority of my time was spent working out alone at home. It was just over a year ago I joined Crossfit Manassas and realized exactly what had been missing from my […]

  My favorite thing about CrossFit is that it’s something I never thought I would do, never mind enjoy it.   I love going in and doing something new or having moments were I doubt myself and then prove myself wrong. It’s making me a stronger person not just physically but mentally too.   My […]

My favorite thing about CrossFit is the scaling. At almost 49, I am one of the oldest at the gym, and probably 99% of the time, the oldest in class. I love that I can work out next to folks who are my oldest daughter’s age and have them challenge me and push me to […]

Photographing Marco this week was great.  He is such a gentleman and refused to let me carry any weights because I might get my dress dirty.  In a slight departure, I included a couple shots from the Vanguard side of the gym.  Marco spends a lot of time training there as well so I thought […]

My favorite thing about Crossfit is how it makes you feel: challenged, accomplished, defeated, improved, empowered, strong, beautiful, and weak. Those moments where you do something you haven’t done before or wasn’t sure if you could are priceless. There is always a movement or weight that you are working towards. It pushes you. I love […]

David is the official Master of Propaganda for CrossFit Manassas, so I decided to let him be our next guy in the series to serve as ambassador. I love CrossFit because I feel that I get the physical activity that my body craves, while at the same time I get an outlet to challenge myself […]
