   Hey, I’m starting Photography and my boyfriend and his best friends are free-runners who want me to take photo’s for them. Do you have any advice on what kind of photo’s I could take that would not only look good in my work but for their group as well.

      Hi Shannon,

      Please see the comment below to Chantel. Get low and use the widest angle lens/camera you can!

      Cheers – Ed

   Hi, My name is Chantel and I’m looking to branch out into other areas of photography. Someone has asked me to take pictures of them while they practice free running. I was wondering if you could share any tips that might help me achieve some great shots. I have a canon 40D and was planning to shoot with a 17-85mm lens. Thank you!

      Hi Chantel. I would try and get the fastest shutter speeds you can to freeze the action of the free-runner. You should try and keep your shutter speed at 1/1000 of a second or faster to get ‘freeze frame’ photos. So this means shooting in bright day light, or in lower light using a high ISO. I would not recommend using flash, as in daylight it would mean blurred shots, or at night stark shadows if you are using the on-camera flash. Hope that helps! – Ed

   Hello,
   my names Alexandra Johnson. I’m currently going into my final year in photography at Nottingham trent University. I specialise in sport with a fascination for free running. I’m using this for my final exhibition.

   I was wondering if you’d be able to help me? I need some help in creating better images.. I have a few shots of my own so if you wanted to have a look that would be brilliant!

   look forward to hearing back from you,
   Alexandra Johnson
