About

Gymnastics photography is an exciting and challenging field of professional sports photography. From capturing skilled gymnasts in mid-air flips to beautifully framing an entire team’s perfectly executed routine, there’s nothing quite like the moment
of these amazing athletes in action. When it comes to capturing the movements of a gymnast in motion, timing is key.
