Over the course of the past few weeks, I’ve had the privilege
of photographing the students of Annie Deadman’s fitness classes in Hampton
Hill for her new website. And I’m rather
ashamed to admit that I’ve pretty much considered the lifting & lugging of my
camera equipment and the stretching & contorting of shooting to be sufficient
in terms of physical exercise for me.
But truth be told, I’ve been put to shame by the amazing students of
Annie’s circuit training, boxing, firming, Pilates and Boot Camp classes. These often happen at 6am while the majority of country is still warm under their duvets.
I’ve truly been inspired
to get out more and push myself further, especially when I would otherwise have tended
to call it a day. The other thing that I
noticed was that Annie’s classes are tough – if one is willing to work, one
will get fit. In fact, the class with
the most groaning was Pilates – the one which had the most subtle
movements and was easiest to photograph.
Go figure.
