Anna`s Journey to A Fitness Photo Shoot
I first thought about doing a fitness photoshoot with my fiancé, 6 months ago. It seemed like a scary and intimidating goal, but I wanted to challenge myself. I knew I’d be in good hands with Bree Hunter. 6 weeks prior to the scheduled shoot, Bree adjusted my workouts, added more cardio, and tightened up my nutrition plan. I was a little worried that I might be really hungry, but that was not the case! Bree had me eating lots of fibrous veggies which helped me stay full everyday. Meal prepping was a life saver for me, especially when resisting the urge to give into cheat meals. There were days when the workouts were tough and a lot of swearing took place! I loved how much Bree challenged me. She knew I could handle it. As the weeks went by, my body was changing fast and I was getting more and more toned. My favorite part of the prep was when Bree talked to me over the phone to help with choosing outfits, suggestions on posing, and reminded me to relax and have fun with it! My fiancé and I had a few hiccups with our venue on the week we were scheduled to shoot. We had frantically phoned gyms around the city with no luck. I debriefed with Bree about it, and she immediately contacted a friend in Calgary who just opened up a new gym. We had a confirmed venue within 20 minutes of talking to her.
On the day of the shoot, I felt: empowered; strong; and proud. I had achieved my goal! Now, I can’t wait for future photoshoots. This definitely won’t be the last! A big thanks to Bree, I couldn’t have done this without you.
