Behind the Lens: My Journey as a Portrait Photographer for Women’s Stories
Every woman’s story is extraordinary—layered with resilience, grace, and quiet strength. Through my lens, I strive to tell those stories, capturing not just how you look but who you truly are.
In real life, it’s easy to connect with someone. You meet them, understand their energy, and accept them as they are. But in the online world, that connection often gets blurred. I see so many heavily edited images or perfect selfies—often designed to show the “best” version of someone under the most flattering light. While these images can be beautiful, they rarely reflect the authentic person behind them. My goal is different: I want to capture you in your best light, not just physically but emotionally—showing the unique personality and strength that make you you.
As an introvert, I’ve always been drawn to deeper, meaningful connections with people. I love learning about the little details that make someone unique, and that curiosity drives every photo session. It’s not about creating a picture-perfect pose but uncovering your genuine self and helping you see how powerful and impactful you truly are.
This perspective comes from my own journey. I used to define myself as a strong CrossFit athlete and a top sales photographer in my previous company. But motherhood and entrepreneurship were a reality check—forcing me to confront how much I had changed. I felt like I was no longer the person I thought I was, and it took me 2.5 years to feel like myself again. It was during this time that I rediscovered my strength, not only as a mother and entrepreneur but also as someone finding joy and power in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
This experience fuels my passion for advocating for mothers. After birth, so many of us struggle with accepting the changes in our bodies and identities. I encourage every new mother to have a portrait session—whether it’s to celebrate a professional milestone or create family keepsakes. These portraits offer something profound: a chance to see yourself with fresh eyes, to honor the beauty and strength that you might not feel in the moment but is undeniably there.
What I find most rewarding—and fun—is working with clients who dislike having their photos taken. It’s okay not to know where to place your hands or how to pose your feet; that’s not the point. For me, it’s about helping you see yourself in a way you never have before—showing how your silent strength impacts the people around you and adds incredible value to their lives.
A session with me feels like catching up with a best friend over coffee—someone who listens without judgment and genuinely wants the best for you. Let’s create portraits that don’t just capture your appearance but celebrate your journey, your strength, and your unique essence.
