Why Women?

Before we give ourselves to another, we are our own. That is a truth I want women to realize. And of everything and anyone I could choose as my subject to photograph, most any would be less complex. There would be less tugging on the strings of my soul to open up, be vulnerable. Less combating of against negative thoughts roaming around in your head and less reminding that you are deserving of this experience.

Because of those truths though, I choose to go to war.

I lean in to fight against the lies that we tell ourselves as women. I have believed all my life that women are incredibly beautiful and the feminine form (in all its forms) are pure human art.

Even with the tough exteriors we build to protect ourselves, our spirits are raw and sensitive.  Our confidence can waver and sometimes we just don’t feel worthy—of anything.

I photograph women because I have experienced for myself as I stepped in front of the camera and also witnessed the transformative power of a photograph. I’ve heard all of the lies a woman has told herself and when she sees beautiful images of herself, those lies fade into the background. These gorgeous images negate everything she’s ever been told she was or what she wasn’t enough of. 

I photograph women because I wanted to create and provide a place where I can tell a woman how beautiful she is and allow her to feel safe enough to believe it.

I will never stop fighting for the version of you that I know exists. You’ll still have your days…but I have chosen to stand in the absolute truth that you can be powerful and vulnerable at the same time. The truth that the broken don’t stay broken, that the woman you’ve always dreamt of being is already within you. You are already all those things you desire to be.  You just have to take ownership of it, claim it, stand boldly in it.

Walk in it.

Even if you aren’t right where you want to be right now—with your body, with your relationships, or in your life in general, it doesn’t mean that it isn’t worth capturing, celebrating, and appreciating.  

Because when you look back on the images from your session, you’ll remember this time in your life.  And you’ll know you’ve made it beyond.  And you did so beautifully.
