Sometimes the best collaborations start in the most unexpected places—like a pharmacy. That’s where I first met Lamla. I noticed her striking presence, and after a quick conversation we instantly connected. As we chatted, I learned that she’s not only a beautiful soul but also a dedicated ultra-marathon runner. Naturally, we started dreaming up a shoot that would celebrate her athleticism and strength.

Since that first meeting, we’ve worked together on so many different shoots: a beautiful beach session with her and her two incredible children, product and lifestyle shoots, and of course, the running and hiking content that reflects her work as both an athlete and brand ambassador.

Lamla brings so much to every shoot—grace, energy, and a quiet strength that translates so beautifully on camera. Whether she’s sprinting through the forest, exploring a trail, or simply sharing a moment with her kids, she’s a dream to photograph. More than that, she’s become someone I always look forward to working with. Every session with Lamla reminds me how powerful authentic connection can be, both in front of and behind the lens.
