i have had the pleasure of doing a lot of yoga photography for jen an amazing local yogi. of course when she asked me for a headshot for her new site i insisted she work out some asana for me too. as much as the body of my yoga work has been done in natural and urban settings, yoga workswestlake is such a great space that i had wanted to shoot there for a while.
here is my fave of jen’s headshots and a few asana pics.

more info about jen on her site

my original plan for this shoot was totally derailed by locked gate and trespassing signs. okay it was more the locked gate than the trespassing sign but the two together made me nervous to do any fence scaling. it forced me though to find some other locations that i ended up very happy i had to find. i would absolutely love to take a couple back here! thanks to lauren and drew for being amazing assistants! they were amazing polaroid exposure timers :)

i can’t tell you how hard it is to balance in deep dirt like this. your hands sink into it and have no firm and stable foundation. not to mention it kills your wrists having the heel of your hand sink deeper than your fingers. jessica, i love this shot, thanks for your hard work!

here are my assistants lauren and drew. drew really is this unhappy in this pic and lauren is acting it for me.

we hike a lot but i have never hiked with my camera bag on my back! and even though i emptied it of everything besides one body and two lenses, it was still heavier than i expected going straight up hill!
i am working on building a yoga stock collection of more urban stuff but when i saw this spot last week i knew i wanted to bring jessica here and do a few shots. and i’m really happy with the results. thanks to jessica for working it out on those rocks! and to eric for carrying the camelback. next time lets trade bags!

Love the train tracks! You are so much braver than I am! Great yoga shots!

lindsey Apr 12th, 2008 at 1:59 pm

the third to last shot is SO COOL!

joy Apr 13th, 2008 at 9:04 am

these are AWESOME! those red heels are such a fun, fantastic touch… i love how she looks so strong, yet feminine at the same time. and that “ode to NY” shot of her arms toward the sky should be huge on a billboard in time square!!! by the way, is this the train yard you were telling me about??

J Apr 14th, 2008 at 10:08 am

Terrific images! Very fun and so NY!

Narat Eungdamrong Apr 14th, 2008 at 7:40 pm

good to see you online again! You were amazing at our wedding. We just wish we could take you with us on our trip to Asia :-)

yoga keeps me strong, sane and conscious. i have had an ongoing project for a while now shooting yogis and yoginis. i don’t find a lot of time to do it but when two of my yoga friends needed a simple headshot for a workshop the other day i grabbed this one killer shot that will definitely go in the project folder.

Great shot! I love how they meld into one person. Love the processing. I need to get back to the gym ;)

Danny Jan 15th, 2008 at 4:15 pm

Great Shot Jen! That deserves to be poster sized with an inspirational quote attached….

Danny Jan 15th, 2008 at 4:17 pm

Great Shot. Love it. Enlarge it and hang it on a wall

Desiree Jan 21st, 2008 at 10:00 am
