I then decided, because of the shame, I could instead be a photographer since modeling was kind of making me question everything. So at 19 and pregnant I started posting on Instagram that I was going to do photography. I had no idea what kind of photography would work for me but I mainly had boudoir clients because i guess they felt comfortable with me since I had been a model they felt like I could pose them and do so with no judgement. I didn’t do much with it at that time because I wasn’t confident in my talent and if I couldn’t model bikinis and nude why would I want to do photos that made me feel ashamed or put in a box too. Well that’s how I felt at the time...

Fast forward to 26 years old, I had another baby, At this time I was working as a licensed aesthetician for 7 years. I had worked, trained and managed day spas and medical spas as well. I found so much joy in making my clients feel beautiful and felt privileged to help them take care of themselves. I had found a passion for giving people their spark back. Then when 2020 rolled around and made me question everything again. When my daughter grew up was she going to be shamed, was she going to quit her dreams just because a boy made her feel unwanted or not enough? Was my son going to treat his future wife like that? So I sat myself down and explained the pros and cons, even though my body wasn’t the same, I wanted to be a model, I expressed my internal fears. I responded to my self judgement with love and support and I left the salon I had been working in and started modeling again. After modeling for about 8 months and spending more time with my kids because of distance learning I realized that I could do photography and model and all those years of lost confidence could be mine. This time I was welcomed back with open arms, no shame came my way I had a ton of amazing women who wanted me to take photos! I had heard story after story from beautiful everyday women that needed help with finding their confidence. That same help that I wish I would’ve had in my moments of weakness.

Now it’s 2024, I’m 30 and have a photography studio in my home, work with women in multiple ways to enhance their lives and continue to transform myself in multiple ways in the name of growth. I’ve been modeling again since 2020 and learning my craft as a photographer. I have been honored to combine all my talents into my business now. I feel the need to spread love and light to all women who might feel shamed, suppressed and unworthy. In doing so, I have developed my passion in Boudoir, Bridal Boudoir, Wedding, Maternity, Women in Business, and portrait Photography. I am open to any and all photography but this has been my go-to for the last four years! I could’ve never dreamed that I’d have this job as a model, photographer, esthetician, and spiritual confidence coach. As a little girl, it really wouldn’t of struck me that all my talent would invent itself into my dream job! I feel extremely grateful and honored for what I get to provide for my clients. I provide a safe place of individuality, an opportunity to be truly yourself, the chance to feel confident and the blessing of seeing yourself in a new light by my photography. My story is told in hopes of saving you time. Don’t waste your time worrying about what others feel or say about you. DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY and further yourself in it. Some people won’t support you and that’s ok, find the ones that do and do the damn thing! Thank you for reading my story and I hope you follow your dreams and do all that brings you peace and happiness down to your core. This isn’t a "fake it till we make it" type vibe, this is the "be real and heal it" vibe. I love you, let’s make magic together!
