From The Moon's Eyes: Embodied Photo Session Offerings
I. A Foundation: To support your work as creative, healing arts practitioner, and beyond.
A good choice for self-employed folks. I have worked with yoga + meditation teachers, therapists, traditional chinese medicine doctors, dancers, actors, sex workers, artists, and more.
This offering bolsters flourishing of your work through a unique lens.
II. A Ritual: An embodied liberation offering. Seeing the naked body as an art form.
Self portraiture has been a portal to self-discovery, emotional expression, and self-acceptance since age 9. A meditative way of coming into the body, moving and releasing emotions, and seeing clearly.
This naturally evolved into photographing others. People began telling me how transformative being seen in a non-judgmental way was:
"You help me feel like I can un-hide every little thing, and still be so loved."
Nude portraiture helped me heal from eating disorders + body dysmorphia, becoming a way of seeing clearly the miracle of the body in all of its phases and forms.
For so long, I viewed the body through a distorted lens. Standing before the camera without armor or distraction required a kind of radical honesty. Through the process, I began to see the body as something alive; expressive, resilient, ever-changing like the moon.
Light tracing the curve of a shoulder, the softness of a stomach, the quiet strength in a back or thigh adorned with regal, tiger-like stretch marks. This embodied liberation offering is an invitation back into the body—not as an object to discipline or objectify, but as a living work of art.
III. An Experiment: Please browse through the bodies of work on this site to see more of my photographic portfolio. I am open to all kinds of creative commissions. Reach out if you have a unique vision, I'd love to hear from you. Contact me for specific work samples + inquiries: Here
