Fit AF with Tricia (Patreon)

This was our first time shooting together, but it definitely didn’t feel like a “first.” Tricia and I have talked about working together for a long time — one of those “we’ll make it happen eventually” conversations that just kept getting pushed back. Then one day she finally said, alright, it’s time, and we made it real.

Tricia is deeply into fitness, and it shows in every line of her physique. There’s a bodybuilder-esque presence to her — not just strength, but control. That awareness of how her body moves, how tension shifts, how light wraps around muscle — it made this shoot feel very deliberate. Nothing felt forced. Everything felt earned.

We leaned fully into that energy for this set. Minimal styling, simple props, clean light. Dumbbells and plates weren’t just accessories — they became part of the composition. The idea was to strip things back and let form, shape, and contrast do the work. Strong highlights, deep shadows, and negative space that gives the images room to breathe.

This is the kind of shoot where the details matter: the way her posture changes the silhouette, how a slight turn of the shoulder reshapes the frame, how stillness can feel just as powerful as motion. It’s athletic, sculptural, and quietly intense.

I’m really glad this finally happened. First shoots like this are always interesting — there’s discovery on both sides — and this one set the tone immediately. It feels like the beginning of something, not a one-off.
