Growing up, yoga was a special part part my life. My mother had fallen in love with yoga long before it was trendy to do so. She was so healed by her yoga practice, that she soon became a teacher and had shared her passion with many grateful students, of which I was one.
As an adult with a busy schedule of business owner and many other responsibilities, I can’t say I get to indulge in yoga as much as I would like. But when I do, it is very special to me. When I recently had the opportunity to create portraits of local yoga teachers and help them promote themselves through new digital images, it was really gratifying and inspiring.
First, I met with each of them individually and discussed their unique style, preferences and prepared them for what would be their first experience in a portrait studio. Then we carved out a day to have all the women come to one big photo session. I had our videographer film the day and our organic stylist., Alyssa create unique looks for each yogi. The ladies were so enthusiastic and supportive, guiding each other through pose ideas. Their positive attitudes, peaceful demeanors and amazing skills were a joy to photograph!
