Photoshoot in the French Alps

The last few days have been one of the most intense and enjoyable ones this year.

I was invited to model for Inov-8 and had the honour to be photographed by one of the most reknown photographers, Alex Telfer and his crew. I arrived in Geneva Monday afternoon where the first shot took place. The theme throughout the entire shoot was to add that extra punch, vibrance and energy to each picture.

This was actually the first time ever for me and my partner to model and I loved every second of it. Luckily the weather was steady for the time being and after we were all set and done in Geneva, we headed off to Chamonix in the French Alps and enjoyed a nice meal in a cosy busy restaurant.

A dream came true for me when I was running on the trails of the UTMB race course surrounded by the stunning beauty of the Mont-Blanc area the next day. Alex decided to capture the moment of us running up and down some ridges while the sun was breaking through the clouds. It was such a mystical atmosphere up there when you can almost 'hear' the silence.

Alex shot about 1100 pictures in only three days and the best ones are going to be printed in catalogues and brochures for Inov-8's fall/winter 2011 collection.
