THE ART OF PHYSIQUE WITH MARCO ADDIS, TENEKA HYNDMAN, & JOSH SINCLAIR
PHOTOGRAPHY BY ERIC LIPTON
I hope people enjoy these photos, as we created this with the intent of sharing our passion for the Natural Bodybuilding lifestyle! These photo sessions were a dream come true for me! I practiced taking these kinds of pictures by hiking alone long distances up into the hills overlooking the ocean in Pacifica, California almost every day for several months. – ERIC LIPTON
“In my long career I have done a lot of photo shoots all over the world and I have worked with many great photographers like Bill Dobbins, Bill Comstock, Jennifer Girard, Doug Jantz, Matt Marsh, Esteban Monclova, and many, many others. This time was very special because it was made with my friends Eric Lipton and Teneka Hyndman, who see bodybuilding as I see it!” – MARCO ADDIS
“It was an ideal location to capture inspiration. Natural athletes with great physiques embracing the moment.”– TENEKA HYNDMAN
“Every time I have done a photo shoot, all the people around came to watch. They appreciate this kind of physique and attitude, and gave me compliments. This is because my physique is always in good shape, and especially because I’m really natural! People do not want to see the usual monsters posing.” –MARCO ADDIS
“It was a rewarding experience to have spent this time with two very experienced and knowledgeable PNBA Pro athletes in the cliffs of California.” – JOSH SINCLAIR
“Eric and Teneka have an eagle’s eye for both positioning and location.” – ERIC LIPTON
“The setting was magic! Thoroughly enjoyed sharing ideas, utilizing the scene to capture the ‘Natural Athlete.‘ A truly uplifting and memorable experience.” – TENEKA HYNDMAN
I found the experience to be as motivating as anything I have ever done in over 30 years of competitive Bodybuilding! I also absolutely loved how seriously everyone took this project! We all wanted to create art and demonstrate the beauty of Natural Bodybuilding and fitness.
I want to thank the unbelievable Natural athletes who went to the cliffs to take these pictures: Marco Addis (Italy), Teneka Hyndman (Australia and New Zealand), Josh Sinclair (Australia), Charbel Abou Khattar (Lebanon), Asaad Raad Karim (Germany) and Ivan Sokol (Slovakia). While only a few could be shown in this photo spread, each of you took inspirational photographs. – ERIC LIPTON GAINZMAG
