As a yoga teacher, it's not important to have good yoga photos. But it is necessary if you're trying to grow your yoga career. Think of all the brands you've paid attention to. Chances are they've told you a story through their photos. The best part of yoga photos is that you can now get decent ones on your iPhone or if you have the budget work with a photographer.

My guest today, is my photographer, Lauren Mitchell. We chat about what it takes to get good yoga photos from your iPhone as well as what to know before working with a yoga photographer.

Lauren has done so many yoga pictures for me and she's the reason why I feel more comfortable in front of the camera. She has some great advice for all camera shy yoga teachers out there!
