ATHX Amsterdam: One day on the floor

I landed in Amsterdam at 10 pm on Friday and set my alarm for 5:45 the next morning. My first ATHX shoot was a full day on the competition floor, with just enough time for a hotel burger before the 4 am alarm for home.

05 / BEHIND THE CAMERA

Hi, I’m Nero.

I’m the photographer behind RXdPhotography. I’m based in Brighton, UK, and cover fitness and sporting events across the UK, Europe and beyond. I look for the moments that tell the story of the day, from the focus before a lift to the push through the final stretch and the reactions at the finish.

For more than 15 years, I’ve photographed competitive fitness at local throwdowns and on some of the sport’s biggest stages, including the CrossFit Games, Rogue Invitational, Turf Games, HYROX, ATHX, Tribal Clash, Strong New York and Madrid Championship. I’ve worked with CrossFit, Rogue, Reebok, NOBULL and HYROX. Most recently, I led photography for brands and activations at the 2026 CrossFit Games.

I first competed in the CrossFit Open in 2012. Taking part has shaped what I look for behind the camera, especially the small moments that show what the day feels like for the athletes. My photograph Emotions won the People’s Choice award for Sports Photography at the 2019 British Photography Awards.
