Yoga

When shooting Yoga, a ‘perfect instant’ must be caught: During this moment, body dynamics, the practitioner or model’s sense of exaltation, setting, light and contrast combine and coalesce to product effective, engaging and refreshing photography. This sport, or rejuvenating practice–along with the plethora of new and unique clothing and yoga-wear lines it has inspired–allow for vast photographic, marketing, and advertising possibilities. From 6am photo shoots on Lake Ontario, to winter Yoga shots in a snow-white forest or on rocky and crested terrain, the relaxing, motivational and athletic aspects of Yoga have allowed me, as a photographer, to draw on landscapes and settings that provide new and thrilling outlooks.
