Torquay Yoga Photographer: Katie Pietsch
Katie Pietsch’s yoga journey began in her late teens while she living in Germany. Despite the fact that she couldn’t understand the language, she felt a special spark in class. Those early experiences of tuning into her mind and body and finding both movement and stillness is something she taps into during every class she teaches. She’s taught yoga in Germany, South Africa, India, and now teaches in Melbourne.
For her personal branding shoot, Katie had specific imagery she wanted to capture including;
free-flowing embodied movement
powerful and feminine poses
structured yoga poses
seated meditation and breathing exercises
some natural portraits
We started in her home studio to capture some yoga and meditation shots before moving to the beach to capture the free-flowing and feminine movement.
The images we captured will help Katie communicate her core brand messages - which is for people to feel a sense of ease in their bodies regardless of the ebb and flow of the world around them, and that movement and breath is a tool we can utilise to disconnect and bring ourselves back to a centred state of being.
