U.K. and is a really nice guy. I actually shot with
him twice. We shot a fight ready feature since
he’s got a fight background and shot some cover
options with some white backgrounds. It made the
cover of Muscle Fitness so that I’m really proud of.
Workwise, I’m also most proud of my travel work.
For a long time I didn’t take my camera with me
because I wanted to just enjoy the scenery and
get a lot of rest, but now I’ve started learning to
take it with me and get a lot of pictures. The goal
for me sometime probably next year would be to
hold a gallery somewhere with all the travel work
I’ve done.
FMM: Who do you want to photograph next?
Is there anyone you haven’t had a chance to
shoot?
CB: I guess in the fitness industry it would be some
of the bigger names out in the U.S. It isn’t easy
getting to shoot with them some of them. I shot

FITNESS
M A G A Z I N E || JUNE 2015 || EDITION 2
with a couple of guys last year which was a big
honor like Jose Raymond and this year shot with
the likes of Larissa Reis, Ben Pakulski and Tony
Freeman. The top of the game is the winners or
the top guys who have competed at the Olympia,
but it’s not an easy job because I don’t work for
any of the U.S. publications, so it’s just a matter of
plugging away at it.
FMM: Where do you hope to go from here?
CB: I really love what I do. The last two years have
been really big for me. The big goal is to make it
out in the U.S. and look for opportunities out there.
It’s not an easy job, and there’s a lot of competition,
but in this industry it’s a lot about who you know.
