Anyone shot Yoga?

[Paulie-W]

Looking for a few tips if anyone has. I may well be shooting a Yoga teacher for some promotion stuff for her website and other (in the pipeline) things. Obvoiusly some of the poses aren't particularly camrea friendly

Lighting wise it will be at her studio, although i've not seen it yet, and flash wise I have one SB800 and one of FITP`s yoyo flashguns.

Lenses are 17-55, 70-200 & 50mil.

Any help would be much appreciated

Sounds like a fun challenge.

I would have a look online to see what poses other people doing yoga look good in, and then base your ideas around them.

I can imagine that some poses look horrible and unflattering, but surely others must be photogenic?

I would make sure you get low down to get level with the model and see what happens.

I think it'll be fun for sure. As for poses, she has her own style that she's devoloping so I guess it will be a bit different. I will search for some general shots though.
