This is my final series I created for my Lighting class this past semester! I finally broke out of my comfort zone and shot minimal movement along with no color for the first time.
I chose to photograph three of my yoga teachers who I really didn’t know at the time from the wonderful Yoga Six Chicago. I had know idea that after four and a half weeks of photographing, those three people would end up being some of the most influential people in my life and teach me so much about my myself and my own practice with yoga.
My goal was to use very little light and thick shadows to display the strength and tonality throughout their bodies along with showing how peaceful and quiet each position was at the same time. After hours upon hours of shooting and editing, I finally have completed my first series that I am 110% satisfied with!
Huge thanks to my incredible models & professors at Columbia who continue to push me everyday even while I’m here out in Singapore.
