YOGATHON 2016 PHOTOGRAPHS ARE HERE! {The Link to View, Download, Print, Share is in this blog post!}

Yogathon 2016 photographs are ready!! Woo!! Thanks for the fun Journey Dance, Toni Bergins!!

There is just something about the greater Boston area yoga community that is incredibly special. I can't put it to words perfectly but walking into Gillette Stadium Field House each year for Yoga Reaches Out's New England Yogathon, I can just feel it. The energy in the room is palpable. It's the day of the year when everyone gets together to rally for a connected cause, giving back to the community, giving back to children and families in need. This year, together, we raised over $300,000 for Boston Children's Hospital and Yoga Reaches Out, specifically benefitting the Hale Family Center which will be expanding its yoga, meditation, reiki, massage, zumba, and all things lovely offerings to the families and patients at Children's. If that doesn't sound like the perfect beneficiary, then I don't know what does. At one of our committee meetings this year, I was able to tour the facility and can tell you first hand, this place is incredible. If my family had a facility like this when I was going through my cardiac surgeries at age three, I know they would have benefitted from it tremendously.

I have photographed this event for five years now and I have gotten to know so many of you. You are all amazing people. Thank you for all that you do, for raising money, for joining together as a community, for being there, and for always giving me a smile or hug. Congratulations on an amazing job well done! Namaste.

If you'd like to order prints from the event, you'll want to use the second two menus. If favoriting first, make sure to favorite from these menus.

Boston Yoga Photo Shoot at the Arboretum {w/ Shelanda Irish}

It's as if the Arboretum knew it was Earth Day when Shelanda and I photographed her yoga session there last week.  The evening light was absolutely perfect shimmering through the trees, creating this ethereal light that was just stunning. And Shelanda, such a beauty with her gorgeous smile and warm heart, was also completely stunning. I absolutely loved working with her, photographing a range of yoga poses for her website.

Shelanda currently teaches an all levels vinyasa class at Fitness Unlimited for Women in East Milton, MA and a yoga sculpt class at Crunch Medford in Medford, MA and she will be teaching a summer series at the Farmer's Market at Power's Farm in Randolph which sounds absolutely amazing. I highly recommend you check out a class with her soon and make sure to give her Facebook page a like as well, Yoga by Shelanda, to get all the updates on her teaching schedule!

Boston Yoga Photo Shoot {Leslie Doyle Yoga}

I am so excited to share the last {but definitely not least!} of three in this series at the Boston Breather yoga photo shoots with Leslie Doyle. Leslie was so great to work with because she has an incredibly warm and fun loving personality and a gorgeous smile. Top that off with exposed brick, Boston charm, and large windows filling the room with abundant natural light and that makes me one happy photographer.

Leslie is currently teaching at East-Side Yoga and Fitness, Regan's Motivated Fitness, Shawmut Yoga. If you're looking for a Vinyasa flow class that brings joy and laughter into the practice while also providing strength and core work to keep it challenging, I definitely recommending heading over to one of Leslie's classes sometime soon!

And for now, take a look at some of her beautiful photographs from our yoga photo shoot!
