Rhythmic gymnastics happens in tenths of a second. I photograph the one where effort becomes line – and a routine becomes something you can keep.

World Championships in Rhythmic Gymnastics 2026
My love for this sport has been with me all my life – ever since I first stepped into the gym to train as a gymnast myself.
That firsthand experience is what lets me find the most emotional, most striking moments of the world's greatest gymnasts – on the sport's biggest stages, from the tension before the floor to the moment it is won.
