our team. Thank you to our contributors Dr. Wendy Carvalho-Ashby Dr. Kevin Ashby Tim Dardis Julie Supple Ron Perron Ali Sohrab Chuck Thompson Lisa Schirok-Dardis Yvette Styner Eldridge Abat Tim Dardis Holly Barker Fatima Leite Kusch Leslie Lewis Dr. Aric Sudicky Mark Crawford Lou Noel Alison Ludovici Official Photographer Tim is a Calgary based photographer that has been able to combine his passion for working with people and his interest in the fitness lifestyle into a transitional career. His work has appeared in a variety of publications and he enjoys taking on a wide-range of photography projects. Ron Perron Photographer Ron Perron is a multi published Vancouver based photographer and filmmaker with a sole focus on athletes. After gaining mentorship by some powerhouses in the industry Ron merged his two great loves of athletics and photography to become a fitographer. Ron relates so well with his clients because he has a diverse background. He moved away from a difficult home environment at 15 years old, pursued a career in music and over the past 20+ years became an expert in photography, graphic design and multi media creation. This morphed into a fledgling photography company, “Fitography”. Ali Sohrab Photographer Consistently creating excellent work is what puts Ali Sohrab in today’s list of top fitness photographers in the industry. Ali has captured the beauty and the hard work of hundreds of athletes with his creative touch. His broad multi-cultural background, and his diverse post-academic accomplishments are the foundation behind his humble yet professional personality. Ali’s talent in lighting, story telling, and body language shines through all his photography and video work, and has given him the opportunity to work with media publications.
