Do you ever feel like you have lost touch with yourself?

Does it sometimes feel like you are living your life by someone else’s rules? 

Because maybe somewhere along the way you forgot your own Self. 

As women over a certain age we can begin to feel less than. 

Less beautiful, less important, less relevant.

It is as if we start to become invisible.

It’s difficult not to be affected by the skewed beauty standards that are fed to us constantly by our patriarchal society.

I am inviting you to reclaim your body and your Self. To be photographed and seen in a way that celebrates your raw natural beauty, as it is. 

Not some highly retouched version of what someone else thinks we should look like but instead a beautiful authentic portrait that celebrates and redefines what beauty really is. 

We can get lost a little as we get older. As our lives become full of others and their needs. We start to feel less visible in a world that only admires the very young.  A world that promotes only small bodies as attractive bodies. A world that dismisses strong, loud and powerful women as something not quite right. 

Take a moment to think back to a time in your life before you became aware of beauty “standards” – before you were limited by societies expectations. Before you were told who you should be and how you should look. Perhaps you are eight, or six or even as young as four? Do you remember your body then? How proud you were of your strong legs that could run fast. How your belly was just that – YOUR belly. No judgements. No negative thoughts about its shape or size. A time when you just existed, in the present moment. Full of vitality, love, strength, power and possibility.

Remember her?

That’s what this experience is about. It is about bringing that girl back. I want you to reclaim her, to remember and honour your true self. And I want us to show her to the world. Because that is the only way we can reclaim our true selves and our bodies from the twisted beauty standards that exist and that keep us quiet. 

What I am offering is a photoshoot where we honour the true you and show the world how beautiful and special you are – the REAL you. 

Warning: this is NOT a glamour shoot where we style your hair and do your makeup, there is no dressing you up in flouncy dresses or putting you into ‘sexy’ underwear. This is NOT about turning you into someone else’s idea of what a woman should look like. 

This is about showing you that you are already beautiful.
