Tony Ryan who has photographed and published the Pumped Up Down Under and AFL Men For All Seasons calendars is offering Black and Blue customers a discount on his physique photography catalogue special. Normally $120 for anyone presenting a receipt from Black and Blue this will be offered for $100.

Shots are taken in Tony's studio factory in Northcote and customers receive one body scene and one headshot series. A disk of high resolution images is prepared on the day and there are no additional costs. For examples of some of Tony's past work visit hiswww.leapoffaith.com.au website.

Over the years Tony has had a very successful relationship with Black and Blue. In the early 90's Tony produced two posters in conjunction with Black and Blue that became best sellers in shops and gyms all over Australia. He has also been involved in many advertising posters and catalogues for us featuring people such as Stan the Man, SteveSilvagni and most recently our daughter Angie. Tony is very relaxed and easy to work with and can work with people of any level of experience.

Best Wishes Elly.


Tony Ryan has specialised for 20 years in photographing models for  calendars, posters and advertising. His published works include the  AFL Men For All Seasons calendar and the Pumped Up Down Under series of  which Black  and Blue have been involved with.   

He is now running workshops for professional and amateur  photographers. These  workshops teach about many aspects of Tony's work including  lighting, camera  settings and most importantly connecting with people. Tony believes  that a  person's emotions and thoughts greatly affect their physical  appearance. To  this end he instructs on how to physically direct and sculpt models  but also  on how to help your subjects to relax and connect with the moment.   

The workshops are run usually on weekends and are 3 hours in  duration.

Cost  is $100 per person and each participant gets access to the model/s  that are  booked for the session. There is also one on one tuition for $70.  

If you are  interested in attending or perhaps would like to model at one of these  events please visit www.leapoffaith.com.au
