Yoga Dogs (not)


It's been hectic around here lately! Busy with photographing families, seniors, children and canines, and all these sessions have brought a lot of fun into my days. It's really fun for me to capture these moments!

So today I bring you one of my Dogs & Their Women portraits that I made last night with Carrie, Harper and Cabot. It was a BEAUTIFUL night out on Lake Nagawicka! Nice evening sun, some puffy clouds, dogs flying in and out of the water on retrieval missions, and a good time for practicing some Yoga.

Carrie said that "as a yoga practitioner, I am constantly striving to live in the moment. It is not easy, and it takes a lifetime of practice. We humans could learn a lot about living in the moment from our dogs. They practice yoga every moment of every day. They are always living in the moment. They don't think; they react."

So I LOVE this image. In the same light, same moment, Carrie practices a beautiful yoga pose while her canine companions watch the light dance off the water. Click - that moment is now a piece of her family's visual history.
