This post is about truly showing that you can play anywhere at any age. This Denver yoga teacher and practitioner does it elegantly as she accentuates each feminine line on her slender and fit body. Her beautiful yoga shapes are mesmerizing and her flow is captivating. The stories she tells are inspiring and beautifully profound.
It's clear that my photography resonates deeply with her, especially in the way I am able to capture the essence of body movement and expression. It's always a joy to know that my work can touch others in such a meaningful way.
Capturing her freedom of expression with a fine art nude yoga photoshoot is a perfect way to start the New Year.
We had an absolutely fun time with her gold body paint and nude yoga poses!
Take a look at the beautiful golden magic we created.
The year 2020 started off on a positive note, but we all know it quickly became quite a rollercoaster ride. Remember the broomstick challenge that took the internet by storm? Well, believe it or not, it led to the discovery of an alternate universe! Amidst all the chaos, I reached out to my friend Jess for some help in documenting the importance of social distancing and wearing face masks during these tough times of the coronavirus pandemic.
As a former photojournalist, capturing unique moments has always been a passion of mine. Amidst the current pandemic, I've been inspired by the creative ways artists and athletes are expressing themselves. It's heartening to see individuals like her channel their energy into creating such beautiful and powerful movements.
The yoga lifestyle photo session was captured in her spiritual and creative space located in the heart of Downtown Denver. With multiple natural light spaces in her LoHi studio, the entire area basked in beautiful soft natural light, creating a truly inspiring environment.
In this session, we were able to amplify her natural beauty and showcase her impressive athleticism. Her graceful movements and form truly embody the power and sensuality of a goddess.
"I truly believe every person has a light inside of them and love that is burning
in their hearts. Yoga can help to facilitate or brighten that light and soften your
heart so you are filled with love and compassion." - Mindful Jess
