It's about consistency. 

Consistently doing what's necessary to set yourself apart from the competition. 

If you look at what IFBB Pro Big Russ Allen has overcome, you'd understand that for him, life is a competition. And he's winning at it. 

Follow his journey inside the gym, on the stage, get to know his coaching style as he brings Team Allen athletes to the top of their bodybuilding game. Follow him on Twitter and Instagram and follow Team Allen's Facebook for updates.

A huge thanks to Crossfit Eminence in Thornton, Colorado for providing us with a location to shoot in for the day. 

Sometimes it's not about adding light, it's about using the light you have. Caro's natural beauty is illuminated by pure sunlight.

Long before tattoo artist and alternative model Marisa Laren became famous on Spike TV's Ink Master, she was looking stunning in front of my camera.  This impromptu photoshoot opportunity came on a chance visit to the set of a friend who was photographing her. It was an opportunity I was glad to take advantage of. 

Marisa is always showing off her talent and latest adventures on her IG and Twitter. 

Follow her and try to keep up.
