POWER & GRIT
SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHER IN CAPE TOWN
Trail Running Photo shoot with Micaela
Shot on Cape Town’s rugged trails overlooking the ocean, this trail running photography session with Micaela captures what it feels like to move through nature with focus, strength, and rhythm. From low gear climbs to long strides through floral singletrack, this series brings together raw terrain, natural light, and real athletic energy.
As a sports photographer based in Cape Town, I create action-driven, editorial-style shoots for athletes, activewear brands, and creative agencies who want visuals that go beyond the usual.
This series combines movement and stillness, capturing trail running not just as a sport, but as a mental reset. Shot entirely outdoors with minimal styling and natural light, the images blend grit with cinematic softness — ideal for brand content, editorial features, or personal portfolios.
Whether you’re an athlete, fitness brand, or looking to create timeless outdoor visuals, I offer trail running photography in Cape Town that’s rooted in real motion and story-driven imagery.
