KATIE Foster was on track to be a professional runner but an unexpected career change means she now sees life through a lens.

The 21-year-old, of Wright Crescent, Wombwell, might have been fast on the track but she's proving to be even quicker off the mark as a professional photographer.

Her bulging client list includes Motorsport Vision Trackdays, Royal Air Force, Maxxis BDC which sponsors the British Drift Championship and ILLAMASQUA beauty products.

However, her main earner is working as an event day photographer for '6th Gear Experience', capturing all the action on track and in pit lane.
