British Taekwondo is delighted to announce RISE Portraits as our new Official Photography Partner for the next two years.
Having worked together on previous events and projects, we are thrilled to be building a long-term partnership with a team that shares our passion for showcasing the spirit and excellence of Taekwondo through high-quality imagery.
RISE Portraits will be joining us at some of the most important dates in the British Taekwondo calendar, including the National Kyorugi Championships and the National Poomsae Championships later this year.
Looking further ahead, they will also be present at the prestigious British International Open in 2026, helping us capture the energy, emotion, and stories from athletes, coaches, and supporters across our community.
Their involvement will help us celebrate our athletes at every level with the high-quality imagery that their team is known for. RISE capture the movement, intensity, and split-second timing that makes martial arts so powerful.
More than that, their images reflect the atmosphere, emotion, and story of each event, turning moments on the mat into lasting memories that athletes, families, and clubs can cherish for years to come.

British Taekwondo CEO, Ian Leafe said:
“We are really excited to have RISE Portraits on board as our official photography partner. Their creativity and professionalism make them a perfect fit for our organisation, and we’ve already seen the quality of their work through past collaborations.
“Having them at our flagship events will not only help us capture world-class moments but also highlight the talent and dedication of our athletes at every level.”
Founder of RISE Portraits, Natalia Bozzay-Fernandes, said: “At Rise Portraits, we celebrate athletes’ journeys on and off the mat, capturing the moments, expressions, and spirit that define each competitor.
“We are thrilled to partner with British Taekwondo and provide exceptional media, creating imagery and stories that honour dedication, showcase individuality, and let athletes look back on their achievements with pride.”
As part of our new partnership, visitors to British Taekwondo events will now be able to pre-order professional images of their competition, as well as purchase on the day, with a number of different packages available.
There will also be an opportunity to have professional images taken in front of the British Taekwondo backdrop and media board, which can be printed and made available immediately, giving you an instant memento of our biggest events of the year.
This partnership reflects British Taekwondo’s ongoing commitment to celebrating the journey of our members; from grassroots athletes and dedicated volunteers to international stars on the world stage.
We look forward to seeing the fantastic work RISE Portraits will produce at our events in the months and years ahead, and are delighted to welcome them onboard.
