25 Reasons to book your boudoir session & real stories from women like you

It's being seen. It's feeling worthy. It's telling your story.

It's a form of self care and an act of SELF LOVE... And loving yourself is life changing. When done well, boudoir / intimate portraiture is life changing. It can remind you, or show you - perhaps for the first time- how truly gorgeous and powerful you are.

1. You need a confidence boost. (My favorite reason to work with you!)

    You never know someone's story just by looking at them.

Life knocks the shit out of most

of us at some point.

Boudoir is therapeutic.

Stories that have come through my door or are on their way to work with me soon:

-"I feel like I'm just a mom and I need my sense of self back."

-Threatened by her husband, "You better lose weight or I'll cheat because I can't f*ck a fat chick."

-Teased for being chubby and forced to wear a girdle at 8 years old by her own mother.

-Robbed, drugged, and trafficked. Escaped on foot. Recovering Addict.

-Cheated on, drugged, and forced to participate in sexual deviance within the marriage. Recovering Addict.

-Beaten so bad her teeth were knocked out. Recovering Addict.

-Navigating cancer.

-Navigating divorce.

-A good wife and mother that was cheated on.

-Finally safe and in a happy relationship.

-Gained weight and want to feel more confident.

-Body changes from motherhood and need to embrace them.

-Older woman in her 60s that felt her beauty has faded.

-Lifelong jealousy of other women's beauty.

-"Im feeling the lowest I have ever felt before and want to do this for me, no one else but me."

-"When I look at these photos, I see a women. Not a mom, not a wife, not a professional. Just me. I'm 49 and I'm putting myself first for the first time and it's not selflish."

I myself am a CSA survivor and photos have helped on my healing journey in many ways such as regaining my bodily autonomy, exploring my sexuality safely, emotionally therapeutic portraiture, along with aspects of healing body image and bodily acceptance.

My studio is a safe space and I can hold space for your story.

I am honored to serve women in this way.
