FMM: Have advances in technology made
things easier? How much of your work is done
in post-production?
BL: The advances in technology over the last few
years have made a huge difference. The cameras,
the lights, the computers and software are all
vital parts of the photography workflow and the
things that they do now are much more advanced
than ever before. I like to think that I take great
shots in camera and make them better in postproduction. I think photo editing/retouching is
vital to finish your work. I am not one of those
people that takes a photo and turns it into
something totally different. I think people that can
do that are truly artists. I just don’t usually work
that way. My images get cleaned up though with
my unique style in Photoshop.

FMM: Do you have a favorite lens for fitness
shooting and why? Prime or zoom?
BL: I have gone back and forth with this over the
last few years. I have had phases where I wanted
to shoot my 85mm prime all the time and then I go
the other way for a while and shoot with the 70200mm zoom. The zoom gives you more flexibility
for sure. The prime has shallower depth of field
and produces images that have a slightly different
look and feel to them in my opinion. They are both
always in my bag.
FMM: Can you tell us the biggest obstacle or
setback you had to overcome in your celebrity
shooting? The most unexpected?
BL: The biggest setback is really just scheduling.
