You don’t need to earn confidence before being photographed.
You don’t need to lose weight, gain courage, or become someone else.
You are allowed to take up space.
You are allowed to be seen.
You are allowed to exist exactly as you are - right now.
This series is an invitation to step into that truth.

What this is
This Is Me is a personal portrait experience created for people who want to see themselves honestly - without retouching or reshaping.
Every image is photographed in black and white.
Nothing is altered. Nothing is smoothed or erased.
What you see is what was already there.
This isn’t about looking different.
It’s about seeing yourself differently.

This isn’t about looking different.
It’s about seeing yourself differently.
Every person you’re about to see felt nervous before her session.
Each of them wondered if they were “photogenic enough.”
They showed up anyway.
What you see here isn’t perfection - it’s presence.
You don’t need to know how to pose.
You don’t need to prepare or perform.
The experience
I’ll guide you gently through the entire session - with care, patience, and respect. Most people arrive feeling unsure and leave feeling lighter than they expected.
Sessions are relaxed, supportive, and unrushed.
There is no pressure to look a certain way - only space to exist as you are.
This is not about being “on.”
It’s about being comfortable enough to be yourself.
Come as you are!
My motto for these and always is simple:
This is not about buying photos. It’s about giving yourself the experience of being seen - honestly and kindly.

FAQ
How long does a session usually last?
I recommend planning to spend about 2 hours with me. The shooting portion typically lasts between 45 minutes and an hour, then the review and artwork selection part runs between 30 minutes and an hour as well.
What should I wear?
Bring outfits that embody who you are. The goal here is to embrace yourself. If you're normally the kind of person who loves to glam up, do it, but if your style is more laid-back and casual, lean into that. For the best outcomes, please bring a dark outfit, a light outfit, and something that shows your movement. For some, movement looks like flowing skirts, for others, this looks like shorts and a tank top - choose something that feels good to you.
Can I wear makeup?
Of course! If that's something you do regularly and it makes you feel like yourself, wear it. If you aren't a typical makeup wearer (I'm not), skip it. Just be authentic to yourself, and I know you'll love it! If possible, avoid glossy/reflective makeup.
Is this just for women?
No! This is for anyone and everyone. Men should have safe spaces to embrace themselves just as much as women. Everyone is welcome here!
Where do you hold these sessions?
These sessions are held in my home studio just off Stage Road in Bartlett, TN. The full address will be sent to you after booking.
