“Promise to become best friends with your body. Treat it with love and appreciation and aim to find your best self.”

We had so much fun on this shoot with Liz Costigan , personal trainer, yoga teacher, and all-around amazing, warm, positive ball of energy.

I had photographed Liz before, but this time around we wanted to incorporate some shots that represented her love of yoga. I loved the idea of doing these against classic Dublin backgrounds, like the red brick houses and pretty doors of Portobello (where Liz teaches, at the lovely Little Bird) or along the canal. 

Head to positivefitnessproject.com for more info on Liz, or follow her on Insta for updates (her Urban Wellness retreats are well worth checking out). 

Some bonus lovely Liz links worth reading:

• Rincy wrote a gorgeous post explaining Liz’s HIIT sessions (with some handy app recommendations).
• The quote at the top of this post is from this great piece Liz wrote on her own site, about all the BS that surrounds the mad scrum for a ‘bikini body’.
• Unsurprisingly, Liz gets tons of great press, but this piece she penned for Image is full of gems
