My first ever yoga photoshoot happened serendipitously at the Unwind Retreat with Julio and Lailla. I’d asked Julio—a teacher I deeply admire—if I could join in exchange for photos, and he graciously agreed.

Little did I know, this experience would change everything.

Not only did it ignite my passion for yoga photography, but it also introduced me to Lailla, who has become one of my closest friends and most inspiring muses. Looking back at these photos, it’s incredible to see the beginning of a journey that has shaped my life and work in ways I could have never imagined.

It's been such an honour to witness these humans—my friends—grow and evolve in the years since this retreat, and for us to continue supporting each other and our businesses.
