Thank you to my Yoga Studio Partners! {2016 Recap}

View fullsize

As we come into the last month of 2016, I wanted to take a moment to extend a huge thank you to all of this year's yoga studio partners. I absolutely love working with your teams for studio shoots, mini sessions, celebrations, events and more. I love working with your teachers, being introduced to your communities, and {gush, gush} becoming closer friends over pizza post sessions.

To all of the owners, the studio managers, the behind-the-scenes-geniuses who create these amazing communities, I thank you, from my heart, for the amazing partnerships we have together. Here's to wishing you a wonderful end of year and continued success in 2017! To you, I bow.

Why am I posting this up a full month before the end of the year? Well, holidays can be a stressful time and for me personally, I know I'll be ramping up my yoga practice at these studios over the next few weeks. Hopefully, I'll see many of you there!

Haverhill, MA Yoga Photo Shoot - Teacher Mini Sessions {w/ The Yoga Tree}

Back in May, I had the pleasure of photographing The Yoga Tree in Haverhill, MA for the very first time. We booked a full day session, photographing everything from the studio itself to a Vinyasa class and a Restorative class to teacher mini sessions, and we even captured some photography of the lovely owner, Caroline Pineau, with her husband and two dogs. If you missed it, you can check it out here: The Yoga Tree on the blog!

Well, at the end of the session {before seeing even one photograph!} Caroline asked me if we could go ahead and book a follow-up of minis in the fall. It felt like forever away at the time and now I'm not sure where the summer went, but we held our sessions earlier this month at Winnekenni Park in Haverhill on the most gorgeous fall day, and I have to say they were just as much fun as our first shoot together. A huge thanks to Caroline, Checka, Shauna, Sami, Sarah, Julia, Shannon, and of course, Shannon's adorable little Elsa!

Make sure to give The Yoga Tree a like on Facebook to see more photographs from the day along with information on their classes, workshops, and events. This is definitely a community you'll love being a part of! Thanks for having me, Yoga Tree tribe!

Haverhill, MA Yoga Photo Shoot {w/ The Yoga Tree}

I feel so lucky that three years ago, the lovely Checka Antifonario asked me to photograph her wedding day and that earlier this year she connected me with another lovely person, Caroline Pineau, owner of The Yoga Tree in Haverhill, MA. It's true, I am pretty much in love with both of these girls along with the entire team of teachers at The Yoga Tree. I joined them for a full day of photographing last month, highlighting the studio itself and all its lovely details, both a restorative and a vinyasa class {shout out to all of the dedicated students who volunteered their time to model!} and of course, mini sessions for many of the yoga teachers. Everyone I worked with was so incredibly kind, so fun to be around, and totally rocked out their mini yoga photo sessions. We shot all around the studio and then took to quite the adventure, climbing through a bathroom window onto the neighboring roof! Needless to say, we had a blast. If only I lived closer, I am sure I would be at this studio daily. There is just this amazing welcoming energy as soon as you walk inside that you'll have to go feel to believe. And, I encourage you to do just that! You can check out The Yoga Tree's schedule on mindbody and make sure to give The Yoga Tree on Facebook a like to get updates on the studio happenings. Now, grab your morning cup of coffee or soy chai latte and enjoy some previews from our photo shoot!

And now for some previews from our yoga mini sessions! We started inside the gorgeous studio and then moved up to the roof for some urban yoga fun!
