Olympic New Zealand BMX athlete Sarah Walker #96






Shooting Sarah Walker I have to admit made me a little nervous. She's a big name in the game and I was feeling some pressure to bring it.

We made some good research and panned the whole shoot out over 2 and 1/2 days, with one day dedicated to the studio session a day at Millenium Institute to get a rare glimpse into her testing and an action track session at North Harbour .

Working with Sarah, I came to appreciate how high profile achieving people can have such huge support teams around them, so many personal behind one athlete on the podium its crazy, but necessary.

She's an incredible inspiration to so many, and I am so proud to have had an opportunity to share a little something and contribute to her journey of Olympic success in 2012 London

The images will be found later this month in NZ fitness magazine and a cool online interview can be found over at Fatbmx.com
