Some women walk into my studio after spending decades being everything for everyone else. Mom. Wife. Provider. The strong one. Somewhere along the way, femininity gets tucked away, and “pretty” feels like a word meant for someone else. This story is from a woman who had lived 25 years in that role — and decided it was time to meet herself again.

“What an emotional week 

My heart is beyond full. And my confidence tank is OVERFLOWING with self love 

Having never ever been behind the lense for any solo photos of any kind, I was beyond anxious about starting with a boudoir shoot.

I’ve been everything but pretty and feminine. Spending 25 years in a shell of being solely mom, wife, and human bringing in the money.

My day started off amazing with Fallon. She was so kind, caring, and aimed entirely to give me the look I wanted to see in the photos. We went over my outfits and colors I would be wearing and her creativity took over to create the amazing look you seen.

When I arrived to Brins studio I was beyond nervous. Brins energy is so welcoming and calming, it felt like friends having fun taking photos in no time. There was no pressure no discomfort ; just laughs and photos.

Seeing my photo reveal. Let me WARN you. Do not do your make up first  I cried. Opening those photos and seeing this beautiful strong independent women warrior goddess queen 

But …. It’s me. 

Brin. Words don’t even explain the way your photos have healed a part of me I didn’t know needed photos “

This is why I do what I do. Not for “sexy photos.” Not for the outfits or the poses. But for that moment at the reveal — when a woman sees herself and realizes the warrior goddess queen was there all along. If you’ve been living in a shell of responsibility and feel that quiet pull to rediscover yourself, maybe this is your sign. The woman you’ve always been is still there — she just needs to be seen.
