CLIENT: Ash Duban / Affinity Cycles
LOCATION: New York, USA
In the quiet before the storm of race day in Brooklyn, this portrait series offers a glimpse of Ash Duban not as the competitive fixed-gear racer but as the multifaceted individual she is. Known for her prowess on the race track and her full-time career as a multi-disciplinary designer, Ash brings a unique depth to every endeavor.
Shot the day before her race, these images strip away the intensity of competition, instead capturing the calm and composed side of Ash in a more personal and reflective setting. The series highlights her versatility, showcasing aspects of her personality that aren't always visible beneath the helmet and race skinsuit.
The backdrop of Brooklyn lends an urban authenticity to each portrait, framing Ash in environments that resonate with her lifestyle and passions. The casual, candid shots contrast sharply with the high-energy, focused images typically associated with her racing persona, offering a broader view of her life and interests.
This series celebrates the person behind the athlete, exploring the balance Ash maintains between her professional design work and her passion for fixed-gear racing. It’s a testament to her dynamic character and an invitation to viewers to see her in a different light, one that’s as compelling off the track as it is on it.
