What Are You Worried About?
MY PERIOD
Yep, it’s the worst. No, it will not affect your finished product. We run an all-female studio and we ALL understand the plight of menstruation on photo shoot day. We keep extra strength Advil and feminine hygiene products on hand, and we have zero qualms with 30 bathroom breaks. Start your morning with some fresh fruit and a heating pad and we’ll take it from there. No worries about bloat or blemishes.
POSE ANXIETY
This one’s easy. You don’t have to know how to pose…not even a little bit. We will walk you through every step of the way. We will get into the poses ourselves and have you mirror us. If we didn’t get it right on the first try, we’ll gently redirect you. It’s not YOUR job to take amazing photos, it’s ours. And we’re pretty competitive about taking amazing photos.
I’M NOT PHOTOGENIC
If you’re thinking that all of the women featured on the pages of my website and social media are models, you’re sorely mistaken. We have NEVER….EVER had a client who didn’t love their photos. You don’t have to love EVERY SINGLE ONE of them, but you will love most of them. And you will be shocked that you could love photos of yourself this much. We WILL rock out your photo session and we WILL get a whole bunch of killer images of you. We always do. But if you come into the shoot with an open mind and with trust in us, we’ll get EXTRA. And extra is always good. We’ve never met a woman who we couldn’t capture beautifully. That includes you.
BODY ISSUES
We long for the day that women are comfortable in their skin at all stages, for the day that women embrace their wobbly bits and beautiful side creases. That said, we know women well enough to be realistic and understand that many women struggle with self love and no matter how much we tell them they are beautiful, they wish they would have lost just a few more pounds before their session. If that is you, we can assure you, that this ain’t our first rodeo. The majority of the women that come in to see us are working on loving themselves, but struggle. They don’t approve of the size of their thighs, their belly pooch, their dimples. We take women’s feelings very seriously and never want to make anyone uncomfortable. While this is a body positive studio, we will also light and pose you in the most flattering possible way while we shoot you from the best possible angles.
We’ve spent the last decade photographing all kinds of women, all extraordinary in their own way. We’ve learned all the tricks to ensure that we are featuring the attributes that women most love about themselves, while paying special care to downplay areas of concern. While we are going to make our very best effort to change your mind on what you consider to be your “flaws”, we don’t expect every woman to be ready for that yet.
WHAT ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT?
It happens all the time…a client’s photo shoot is a few days away and she begins to panic. We get a terrified e-mail in the middle of the night begging for us to talk them off the ledge. They want to cancel, they just haven’t had the time to prepare, you name the excuse, we’ve heard it. So let’s be proactive here and tackle the most common trepidations we hear, so that maybe you won’t be hyperventilating in the middle of the night on the day before your session.
STRESS ACNE
Yeah, it happens. Pimples suck. If you think for one second that every woman you see pictured on our website was magically pimple-free on the day of their session, you’re taking crazy pills. We retouch blemishes and bruises with ease on every photo you see. No problem. No stress. Let that pimple try it’s hardest to ruin your day, but your photos will not be a permanent reminder of it.
