Earlier this year I received an email from Nina, the founder of the german yoga fashion label OGNX. She was interested in collaborating and asked to schedule a phone call to discuss the details. I had only 2 more weeks in LA before heading to Europe and my days were already packed with social activities, client meetings and doctors appointments.

But when we talked, I instantly connected with Nina and liked her ideas for the upcoming shoot. She told me that Nela Koenig, a successful photographer from Berlin (and also great Yoga teacher!!) would be shooting the pics. I also learned that one of these pics could make it onto the cover of Yoga Journal Germany. I got curious:)

Nela and I met on a beautiful sunny LA morning (what else;) at the location. A stunning House with a pool and view over the hills. We had such a fun time and the whole day went by so fast. But as the last rays of sunlight were hitting my face I was exhausted. Longer holds while looking pretty in certain yoga positions ain’t easy.
I guess every yogi who’s done yoga shoots knows what I’m talking about? lol

A few days after the shoot, we decided to meet for a quick coffee in Venice to go over the pictures. I was very excited with the result and even happier when I received an email from Nina that one of our pics made it onto the cover of Yoga Journal Germany!!!

That was definitely one of my Yoga-Life goals;))

I felt so honored to be on the cover and really pleased to find this nice little article about me inside the magazine as well. I think my buddy Capone was pretty happy with it too.
