It all started with construction paper and excessive amounts of tape as a young kiddo. These days as an adult (sort of! Ha!) I express my creativity through photography. Every day I wake up grateful that my creative side meshes so well with my passion for people and turned into this dream into a career.
Women’s Portrait Photography :
Happy Monday beautiful! Today I am introducing a new project. If you have followed me on Instagram or even just browsed my website for a couple minutes you will probably notice that I use the phrase “confidence is beautiful” multiple times. I truly believe that phrase. I have witnessed this in myself and I have seen it over and over again with my clients.
I have a huge passion for photographing seniors in high school. There is something about seeing my gals faces light up at the end of our session. They say they had fun, they feel beautiful and they feel like they can go out and conquer the world. If a couple hours of a photo session with me can transform how these seniors feel about themselves, why not offer this same experience to women?
Recently I have been asking women the question “when was the last time you had photos taken of yourself professionally?” (your husband taking a blurry cell phone shot doesn’t count!) and do you know what the answer is? 99% of the women I have asked either said senior photos or at their wedding. How crazy is that! Women get so busy being a wife, a mother and a grandmother that they forget to take time for themselves, giving all their time and energy selflessly to their family and friends.
I want to help empower women to feel confident and beautiful. I want women to take an evening off and to feel amazing and have time for themselves. This isn’t boudoir, you don’t need to get naked! I believe you can feel confident, beautiful and even sexy without stripping down! (There is absolutely nothing wrong with boudoir and it can be very empowering!) If you need a confidence boost, if you haven’t had your photos taken since your wedding, if you just need a little time for you, please contact me. I would absolutely love to work with you and make your feel gorgeous! Women’s Portrait Photography is also the perfect gift for your significant other!
Now that all of that has been said, check out Jamie’s beautiful portraits. She is a gem of a gal and is gorgeous inside and out. She has been so much with school and actually planning her own wedding that the session was perfect for her to slow down for an evening and take time to focus on herself. After one of the photos I took I squealed as it was so perfect. I immediately turned my camera around and showed it to Jamie. She almost started to cry and said it was her favorite photo she had ever seen of herself. That is why I am doing this. This is why I am passionate about photography.
Jamie, thank you for being so amazing! I’m so excited for your graduation and so happy you get to marry the love of your life soon!

Amazing post! You are clearly wonderful at what you do and your ability to connect with women shows in your images. These are beautiful! Love the shots in the water.
The bright, cheerful colors in this women’s portrait photograph are wonderful! They really seem to match her natural personality and show her beauty and confidence!
Love these pictures and your thought behind them. It’s so true as women we are normally behind the camera and not in front of them!
You really know how to capture someone at their best! I guess I need to get some professional photos taken too!
I love how you stated that confidence is beautiful! So true! And I agree that it’s important to take some time to pamper yourself and feel beautiful! Great post! 🙂
Great senior portraits! I wish this was a trend in Canada!
Wow what a beautiful set of women’s portraits. I can see why she loves them so much. She’s gorgeous and has the prettiest eyes!!
Oh I love the idea behind it and the execution. Great job.
Seriously stunning session! The light! Her hair! The outfits! Just gorgeous. Senior pictures have definitely changed since I was a senior.
Isn’t she a natural in front of the camera! I love how comfortable she looks. You make a great Women’s portrait photographer!
These portraits are stunning, I bet they fell in love with every single one of them!
These are so beautiful! I love the colors of her outfits against that backdrop!
I truly love all your portraits. All of your clients/models look so relaxed and you capture their features so beautifully. <3
