An editorial photoshoot for Summerset Retirement Villages, profiling an exceptionally active resident and competitive Masters athlete.
This editorial shoot focused on Lois, a 77-year-old Summerset resident and highly accomplished Masters athlete. The brief was to create a visual story that reflected her athletic achievements, daily training, and life at home — capturing both performance and personality.
The photographs were made across a range of settings, including outdoors with athletic equipment, inside her home, and in her garden, alongside quieter detail images of medals, footwear, and training tools.
Rather than staging a single narrative, the approach was observational and respectful, allowing Lois’s discipline, energy, and independence to come through naturally.
The resulting images were created for editorial publication and celebrate strength, longevity, and lived experience without exaggeration.
