What makes the best boudoir session? You.
connection, trust, vulnerability + bravery.
I’ve spent years figuring out what continues to draw me to this work + what I want to do with it. What it ultimately comes down to is connection. Connection with people + a connection with themselves.
My philosophy is heavily focused on both of us showing up. Nothing staged + forced. Authenticity is my vibe personally + professionally. It’s important to me that you feel invited to be yourself.
I don’t feel like I necessarily stick to a specific style. I always make sure the way I am interacting + shooting my clients is a representation of who they are. I want to capture what you feel + what I see.
It’s a lot of interpersonal work + decisions they have to make in order to show up for themselves; that is what I feel makes the ‘best sessions.’ When they have chosen to do the hard work + dig into themselves in spaces that haven’t gotten attention in awhile.
If you’re wanting someone to show up + get posed shots, or if you’re unable to release a bit of control we aren’t the best fit.
If you’re photographer hoppin’ + trying to find the least expensive, I am very okay with telling you straight up I know I’m not that. And that is entirely okay! You deserve a photographer that fits your wants + needs - and I respect that includes your budget.
To make the the most of your session, I need you to see this photoshoot as less of an opportunity to take some awesome photos + more of a chance to embody the woman inside you who has been dying to shine and to be embraced for all that she is. If you allow yourself to go there, this shoot could be a holistic experience engaging your body, mind, and spirit in a way that might bring deep healing.
My job is not to simply hold a camera, but to partner with you in this very vulnerable process.
