How to Start and Run Your Successful Fitness Photography Business
with Ryan Lomer Ouellette
In this presentation I will share my story of how I got started in Fitness Photographer and eventually included Body Building Stage Photography as well as Model Portfolios. Over the years through networking and hard work, I have made many lifelong connections, expanded my reach and photographed events with some of the biggest names in the body building world.
I will share my proven method of how I find, create and keep my clients coming back. You will also learn how to get your images published, how humor and personal approach can build a lifelong connection with competing athletes, influencers and models. I will walk you through my social media strategy and demonstrate a typical photo session, start to finish. At the end of the presentation, you will have the necessary knowledge to start and run a profitable fitness photography business or a rewarding side hustle.
We are going to learn, have a lot of fun and great pictures will just happen.

ABOUT RYAN LOMER OUELLETTE
Owner & Head Photographer at Lomer Photography
I made a life-changing decision to buy my first camera seven years ago, an impulse that sparked a passion for photography I never expected. Two years later, at the age of 44, I left behind my 19-year career in architecture to pursue photography full-time. What started as a hobby quickly transformed into a career, and now I’m proud to be a full-time professional photographer.
My work has garnered recognition in both the fitness and fashion photography worlds, and I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with Olympic athletes and IFBB (International Federation of Bodybuilding) Pros worldwide. As a published photographer, my images have graced the covers of numerous magazines, both nationally and internationally.
I specialize in fitness photography, where I combine my passion for capturing the strength, dedication, and artistry of athletes. Over the years, I’ve honed my craft, and my work has taken me across various stages, including those of the CPA (Canadian Physique Alliance), NPC (National Physique Community), and IFBB.
While fitness remains at the core of my work, I’ve always loved challenging myself creatively. Photography isn’t just a job for me - it’s a lifelong passion, and I’m constantly learning new techniques to push the boundaries of my craft. At Lomer Photography, we focus on creating memorable, powerful images, all while having fun in the process. Great pictures happen when passion, creativity, and collaboration come together.
