Society tells women that we have to fit into this tiny narrow minded mold of what is considered beautiful. That very tiny narrow minded mold doesn't include life. We are meant to change, to evolve, to grow as our world changes around us - as it changes US. Our bodies...

I like to explain our bodies to children by the example that our skin is like a bag that holds our organs and bones and will move and adjust as we use the bag and add and subtract from it and it all is natural and NORMAL. You can use a grocery bag as an example too and show how it moves as you adjust what is in it.

It is a big thing that you are able to do. To take that step and believe in yourself enough, to know that you could start from nothing again and build it back up because when all else fails, you can land on your own. 

It really is an exchange of energy. Whether you believe in science or metaphysics or religion,  we know that energy can’t be created nor destroyed. There’s always an almost tangible feeling energy in the room when we’re shooting. I think that creates a shift and makes it really a transformative experience.

When you can learn to look in thee mirror and just see yourself without the words of your past, you can start to see your potential. And you can start to find the parts of yourself that you like. Miss V got her first taste of that during her session. As the session progressed, her confidence grew and she found a new way to really grab onto her self-love.

You need to hang your art up. When you’re having that bad day, you can walk in and be like, “Oh yeah, there she is. Yeah. There’s the woman that I’m familiar with, that I know is inside.” And it helps you reframe how you look at yourself.

Our worth is contingent on no one but ourselves. 

We enter this world worthy of respect and love, and we leave this world worthy of respect and love. That includes you.

It’s not the, Oh, I took sexy pictures. It’s the, I made the decision to do something that scares me. I made the decision to trust someone new and I made the decision to step outside of my comfort zone and confront my body in a way that I never have before. So I think that’s really what makes this as empowering as it is. It’s not just sexy pictures. It’s an entire experience that really comes together to help our clients take  that next step into themselves. A step into who they want to be and who they see themselves as, without anybody else telling them what that is.
