Real talk from someone who’s seen it all!

You’ve read the FAQs. You’ve seen the photos. You might’ve even stalked my Instagram at 1 a.m. on a Tuesday (you’re not the only one).

But there’s still that voice in your head whispering all the quiet fears you’re not saying out loud...

“What if I freeze up?”
“What if I hate how I look?”
“What if I cry, or worse—what if I feel nothing?”
“What if this is just one big expensive mistake?”

I get it. Really, truly, I do.

Because these aren’t just questions—they’re rooted in lived experiences, body image wounds, trauma, people-pleasing, and a culture that’s taught us to dim our shine.

So let’s unpack the real stuff. The messy stuff. The stuff you’re probably too nervous to ask...
I’ve got you.

💭 “What if I don’t feel like me during the session?”

Here’s the thing: I’m not trying to turn you into someone else.

This session isn’t about pretending. It’s about remembering.

We’re not chasing some magazine version of sexy. We’re creating space for your version. Whether that’s raw, soft, bold, vulnerable, cheeky, wild, or something you haven’t even met yet—you get to decide.

I’ve had women show up in vintage slips, ripped band tees, leather jackets, lace robes, and nothing at all. What you wear (or don’t) has nothing to do with whether or not this feels aligned. The goal is always to help you feel like yourself—just elevated, celebrated, and supported.

💭 “What if I’ve been through trauma and I’m not sure I can be that vulnerable?”

That fear is valid. And you are not alone.

This isn’t just about taking pictures. This is about being seen—and for many women, especially those who’ve survived trauma, being seen can feel dangerous.

That’s why creating emotional safety matters just as much as the lighting, posing, or styling.
There’s no pressure to perform. No expectations. No “shoulds.” If you need a pause, we pause. If you need a breather, we take it. If something feels too much, we scale it back.

This space is sacred. It’s yours. And I will hold it with softness and strength.

Because you are not too much. You are not too broken. And there is no “right” way to do this—only your way.

💭 “What if I cry during the session... or the image reveal?”

I keep tissues in the studio for a reason.

Some women cry during hair and makeup. Some cry when I show them the back of the camera. Most cry during the reveal.

Because it’s not just about what they see—it’s about what they feel when they see it.

For some, it’s the first time they’ve seen their body without judgment.
For others, it’s the moment they realize how far they’ve come.
And sometimes… it’s simply the beauty of being witnessed after years of being invisible.

You’re allowed to feel everything here. It doesn’t make you dramatic—it makes you real.
And I will hold space for every tear, every smile, every deep breath that comes with it.

💭 “What if I hate every photo?”

This one comes from a deep, painful place—and it deserves a gentle answer.

Here’s what I’ll say: I’ve photographed hundreds of women, and I have never had a client leave hating her images.

Do you want to know what actually happens?

You’ll walk in praying that maybe there will be one photo you don’t cringe at.
And then I’ll start the reveal, and you’ll go from cautiously hopeful... to stunned... to whispering,

“Wait... that’s ME?”

Because yes, you felt awkward. Yes, you didn’t know what to do with your hands. Yes, you were convinced your “bad side” would ruin everything. And yet—there you are, glowing. Radiant. Fierce.

Not photoshopped. Not filtered. Just seen.

💭 “What if I don’t feel sexy?”

You don’t need to show up feeling sexy.

That’s the lie they sold us—that sexy is a constant state of being you either have or you don’t.
But sexy is a moment. A spark. A shift in energy. A reclaiming of something that’s already yours.

This isn’t about seduction or performance. This is about reconnection.

If you’ve been stuck in survival mode, or motherhood mode, or “just-get-through-the-day” mode—yeah, that sexy part of you might feel pretty far away.

But trust me, she’s still in there.
And this space gives her permission to stretch her legs and say, “Oh hey... remember me?”

💭 “What if the people in my life don’t get it?”

Maybe your partner doesn’t understand.
Maybe your mom would judge you.
Maybe your best friend thinks it’s frivolous.

Let me be clear: You don’t need anyone’s permission to invest in your own healing, pleasure, and self-celebration.

This experience doesn’t have to make sense to anyone but you.

You don’t need a reason that checks someone else’s box.
You don’t need to explain the longing you feel to see yourself differently.
You don’t need to justify why you want this.

You’re allowed to do something simply because it speaks to your soul.

💭 “Okay… but what if I regret doing this?”

You won’t.

But I’ll tell you what you might regret: waiting.

Waiting until you lose weight.
Waiting until you have someone to give the photos to.
Waiting until the timing feels perfect or you feel “ready.”

But what if you didn’t have to wait?
What if you didn’t have to change a thing to be worthy of this experience?

Most women walk away saying,

“I didn’t know I needed this as badly as I did.”
“This shifted something deep in me.”
“This made me fall back in love with myself.”

That’s not hype. That’s truth. And it’s waiting for you.

💌 A gentle invitation

You’re not crazy for having doubts.
You’re not shallow for wanting to feel beautiful.
You’re not selfish for choosing yourself.

You’re human. And this? This could be a turning point.

If you're curious, nervous, excited, or still on the fence—that’s okay.
You don’t have to be fearless to show up.
You just have to be open to seeing yourself with softer eyes.
