This shoot with James Kabofi, a dedicated bodybuilder in his early twenties, took place in a gritty, dimly lit gym tucked away in the heart of Barcelona. The atmosphere was raw and moody, with shafts of light cutting through the darkness to highlight the sculpted lines of James’s physique. Every shot aimed to capture not just strength, but discipline and intensity—the quiet focus of someone who lives for the grind. The interplay of shadow and muscle gave the images a cinematic edge, turning a workout space into a stage for power and purpose.
