Bodybuilder Dina’s Portrait Session / Cape Town

I met athlete Dina early 2018 at gym, through my personal trainer, Helen.  I have been inspired by Dina ever since then, and have been motivated by her sheer determination and drive. She sticks to diets and training plans relentlessly, and her body has become more toned every time that I’ve seen her training.  She entered her first competition several months ago, and then the Nabba Provinsials recently that qualified her to go to the SA Nationals next Saturday!!y  She is one of those super confident, strong (mentally and physically!), warm, dynamic woman that, when you meet, you fall instantly in love with her beautiful energy.  I started off with her portrait photo shoot in Oranjezicht Cape Town, and was in awe of her stunning clothing and unique sense of style. Many of her clothes are from Lebanon where she was born, so it was very eye-opening for me to photograph her in so many stunning pieces.   We ended off the shoot with some photos of her training at BUC Fitness Club in Sea Point.

Having a portrait shoot done, is often a once in a lifetime experience for my clients. Others may do a shoot every few years, or on landmark birthdays, but whatever you decide, it’s an investment in yourself.  For women, having their hair and makeup done by a professional is all part of the experience, and one that will leave you feeling and looking even more confident in your photos.
