It is my passion to build self-love and self-value in every single person who walks into my studio. I’ve been photographing people for the last decade, and we all do the same thing. We step in front of the lens and apologize for our physical insecurities. “I’m sorry, I need to lose ten pounds,” “I’m sorry, I look old,” "I'm sorry, my smile is super awkward." The list goes on and on. I’ve heard it all, and I’ve felt it all about myself too. We are so hard on ourselves, particularly when it comes to the way we look. Insecurity can be crippling, but our appearance is the least interesting thing about us. At the end of the day, we all want the same thing. We want to feel seen and to feel loved. I have the power to give that to the people who step in front of my camera. I know that I can show every person I photograph a portrait of themself that they will absolutely fall in love with. They will see the beauty that everyone else in their life sees, reflected back at them. It is a magical, transformative experience, and a powerful way to encourage self-confidence. And, the world needs more confident people!
