Jason and Colleen Wachob in the Arizona Desert

That's MindBodyGreen Founder and CEO Jason Wachob with his wife, MindBodyGreen Head of Revenue Colleen Wachob. You can see why they're a match!

A dedicated yoga practitioner himself, Sturman's work has increasingly focused on capturing the timeless grace and embodied mindfulness of asana. His portraits, whether set in the lively streets of Manhattan, the expansiveness of Malibu's beaches and canyons, the timeless elegance of Walden's New England, or the bleakness of San Quentin Prison, remind us that there is beauty everywhere. In Sturman's own words "I often think of Rumi: 'I can't stop pointing to the beauty.' That feels right to me."
