Riva fell in love with yoga after walking into her first class over 18 years ago. Her desire to share this passion led her to become a certified Yoga & Pilates teacher and a contributor to health & wellness publications, both as a writer and model. The natural progression to Creative Director ensued after filling the role for many of her photo shoots.
By combining her passion and creativity, Riva is dedicated to capturing unique and memorable images through the beauty of yoga. Riva has been featured in Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Shape, Daily Burn, Yoga Journal, and has regularly contributed to Yoga Magazine, Huffington Post, and numerous other publications.
In addition to her creative work, Riva enjoys teaching customized yoga, Pilates, & mobility classes to her private clients. She lives near NYC with her husband, three kids, and their rescue-dog, Winnie.
