I rigorously train like the athletes for 7 or 8
months before shooting each Olympic Games.
Thousands of push-ups, crunches and running
in knee-deep snow, so I can endure the rigors
of transforming the best athletes in the
world into art. I complain with every muscle
ache until I am standing on the mountain in
subzero temperatures anticipating that perfect
superhuman feat.
Puck! Scull! Moguls! Quoit! Selchow! Brassie!
Somersault! Googly! Being able to photograph
sports can be the closest thing in our fantasies
to actually playing your lifelong passion. To do it
well is to participate.
