Meaningful Portraits for Women & Gender Diverse People Over 35

You can reach out to me by phone, text, email, or by the inquiry form on my contact page. Then we begin by scheduling a phone call so I can answer any questions you have.

Once we book your photoshoot date, we guide you through your experience from how you want to be photographed, what to wear, how to get ready, and hair and makeup artistry requests.

When you arrive at the studio you will be welcomed by me and pampered by my hair and makeup specialists.
I coach you through posing, movement, and expressions so you look great in all your photos. Then we review all your images before you leave the studio so you can select your favourites and only buy what you LOVE.

"From the wardrobe design consultation in advance, professional hair and makeup in the studio before my photoshoot, to expertly guiding me through posing, the experience was everything I hoped for, and my portraits are incredible. " - Kara H.
I don’t recognize myself in photos anymore.
I’ll do it when I lose some weight.
I’ve changed - and I’m not sure how I feel about that.
Being seen feels uncomfortable.
I’m just not photogenic.
I hate my smile.
I don’t feel worthy of being the focus.
I’m afraid I won’t like what I see.
I wish I’d done this when I was younger.
Aging happened faster than I expected
I don’t look the way I used to - and that’s hard to accept.
I don’t need pictures of myself.
If you’ve ever said one of these things, you’re not alone.
And you’re exactly who I photograph.
Trust me. I have heard all these excuses and more. I even used to say them myself. But just as I learned I am ENOUGH - so are YOU.
You ARE worthy of having portraits you LOVE.
These responses are not accidental.
They’re the result of an experience designed around trust, presence, and respect.


Images that speak before you do.

Celebrate who you are
