Creating fitness photos takes special skills in lighting and posing.  Most of the time in photography our goal is to make soft, flattering images of our clients.  But when someone has worked as hard as Ryan on his physique, you need to show every little muscle cut and all those amazing details.  If you use traditional portrait lighting you end up making the muscles look smaller.   Ryan loved the detail I captured for him and he now has a proud souvenir of all his hard work!
