Luxury bo***ir + self portraits for women who want to feel unapologetically themselves. Awkward? Me too. But that’s where the magic happens.

Based in Sonoma County & beyond, I create art that’s moody, colorful, and deeply human.

hey — if you've been on the fence about booking, I want you to know something.
you don't walk in and immediately start taking photos. you walk in, sit down, get your hair and makeup done, eat your fav snack, and just... exist for a little while. with me and my artist. no pressure, no performance.
the session doesn't even start until you feel ready.
if that sounds like something you need right now, my consult call is free and zero pressure. link in bio. 🖤

before we ever start shooting, we do something small that I think matters a lot.
we sit down together. pick out an affirmation card. take a little selfie if you're up for it. do a quick breathing exercise to get you out of your head and into your body.
because here's the thing — most women show up a little nervous. that's normal. that's expected. I'm not going to just throw you in front of a camera and hope for the best.
we get you grounded first. and then we go. and then before you know it the session is over and you're standing there kind of shocked that you actually just did that. 🖤

"I don't know what to wear" is the #1 thing I hear from women before their session.
so here's what I want you to know — you don't have to know. my client closet has 250+ pieces in sizes XXS–6X and we go through it together. try on everything. keep what feels like you.
that's it. that's the whole thing.
if the "I don't know what to wear" excuse has been keeping you from booking — consider it gone. 🖤 link in bio to grab a free consult call.

okay can we talk about the closet for a sec
250+ pieces. sizes XXS–6X. and it is always growing.
when we're done with hair and makeup, we go through it together — you try on everything that catches your eye, we narrow it down to your two looks, and honestly it just turns into a whole dress-up party. every single time. I love it every single time.
you don't have to show up knowing what to wear. you don't have to have an outfit picked. you don't have to have it figured out. that's literally what I'm here for.
just show up. we'll handle the rest. 🖤

she saw a TikTok trend and wanted to give her groom polaroids on their wedding day.
so I made it happen.
she had a specific vibe in mind ... and my normal set up wasn't quite it. so I added a white backdrop. then white textures. pillows. layered white sheets until it felt right. I'm talking over an hour of building and adjusting and stepping back and doing it again until it looked like the vision in her head and not just a thing I threw together.
then came the polaroids.
my usual option wasn't hitting the way I needed it to for her. so I tested three. three different polaroid options until I found one that met my standards AND matched her vibe.
then I sat and printed 45 images. and individually sorted every 10 into their own envelope.
her favorite snack was there. her favorite drink was there. we played her wedding playlist the whole time.
I don't tell you this to flex. I tell you this because I need you to understand something ... when you book with me, I am in it with you. your vision isn't an inconvenience to my workflow. it IS the workflow.
you don't have to shrink your ideas to fit what I already have. bring me the weird request. bring me the TikTok you saved at 2am. bring me the vibe you can't fully explain yet.
I'll figure it out. I always do. 🤍

bo***ir with me isn't what you think it is.
you show up. my hair and makeup artist and I greet you, and then we just... hang. for an hour and a half you sit there, get pampered, gab, laugh, and eat your favorite snack. want chill music and quiet? done. want to talk the entire time? also done.
nobody's rushing you. nobody's making it weird. it's genuinely just a really good morning.
the shoot part comes after all of that — when you're feeling good, you look good, and you're actually relaxed enough to just be yourself in front of the camera.
that's the experience. that's what you're signing up for. 🖤

Just a little girly rant 🤭💋

I see you.
The one watching her body change and not always knowing how to feel about it.
Maybe there's a baby growing inside you right now, your belly stretching in ways that still feel surreal. Maybe you've already birthed one — or two, or three — and you're standing in front of the mirror like who is this person? Maybe you've been working really hard to make changes, and some days that feels empowering and some days it just feels exhausting. Maybe life just... happened. A new medication. A different job. A harder season. And your body absorbed all of it, the way bodies do.
Whatever brought you here — you're watching your body shift, and nobody really warned you how much that could mess with your head.
The weight that goes up or down. The stretch marks that show up seemingly overnight. The grey hairs multiplying faster than you can count them. The wrinkles settling in around your eyes. The body hair you weren't expecting. The muscle definition appearing where it didn't used to be, or disappearing where it once was.
Can I just say something? All of that is so incredibly normal.
Not in a "don't worry about it" way. I'm not trying to brush past what you're feeling. Because sometimes it's genuinely hard to watch your body change, even when you know change is natural. Even when you've said the right things to yourself a hundred times. Even when you follow all the right accounts and read all the right books and still have mornings where you look in the mirror and something just sinks.
I've had those mornings too. I'm not talking to you from some healed place I arrived at years ago. I'm talking to you from this — the ongoing, nonlinear, sometimes beautiful and sometimes brutal process of learning to be in your body as it actually is, not as it used to be or might someday be.
Bodies change. That's not a failure. That's just a life being lived in one.
You don't have to love every version of your body to deserve to feel seen in it. You don't have to reach some finish line before you're allowed to take up space. You don't have to feel ready, or confident, or "done" with your journey.
You just have to be here. And you already are.

I moved across the country.
and she still got her session.
I want to tell you about a client who booked with me before I knew I was moving back to California. she had a payment plan. she had a vision. she had a timeline that worked for her life ... and I wasn't about to blow that up just because mine changed.
so when she finished her plan and was ready? I bought a plane ticket back to Tennessee.
I hunted for an Airbnb for hours until I found one that actually worked. I scheduled a wardrobe consult over Zoom and we battled the time zone difference like the champs we are. I packed all her favorite pieces. I made sure her favorite drink and her favorite snack were waiting for her during hair and makeup.
because here's the thing ... when you book with me, you're not booking a transaction. you're booking me. and I don't half-ass the people who trust me with something this personal.
I know what it takes to finally say yes to yourself. I know how long you sat with this before you hit send. and I know that by the time you show up to your session, you've already been so brave.
the least I can do is make sure everything else is handled.
that's just how I work. ✈️
