Flashback to 2015

I first met Cyruss at my friend, Kendall's super hero birthday party. I was dressed as Peter Parker (photographer, easy go-to) and went around obnoxiously taking pictures of people. There, I connected with Cyrus Powell Jr.

@cyfittherealist for you Instagrammers

He expressed his passion of fitness and desire to help transform the lives of others. It was only natural that I wanted to help his journey in the only way I felt compelled to. Fitness photography.

Flashforward to 2017

It only took two years of seeing him at fitness expos that we finally met up to have a photoshoot. I met him at the original Metroflex Arlington and we hit legs. Mind you, this was my second workout of the day, first being legs as well. I was already dead.

This picture makes me laugh because he's actually standing in front of a dumpster. When I said, "Hey, go stand in front of that dumpster." He replied, "you callin' me trashy Jackie?"

"Yeah. Go stand over there and look off in the distance." Ha.

It's probably my favorite picture of the lot. Thank you for this.
