The Transformative Art of Embodied Storytelling
Welcome! You found your way here at the perfect time.
There’s a story within you, ready for the light.
I approach each session as both an Artist, and a professionally trained Somatic Practitioner. The combination of these skills creates what can be a joyful, nourishing, and often transformational, experience. Each session becomes your own unique, creative ceremony. A collaboration between Presence and Vision. Embodiment and Empowerment. The Mortal and The Mythic.
With intention and courage, photography can become a vehicle for personal evolution. To tell a visual story, you first consider it. You get curious, imaginative, playful. Then you embody it. To embody it, you feel it. In feeling it, and then seeing it reflected as art, you integrate it in new ways. For some, this can be incredibly healing. For some, its just really fun. Usually, it’s both.
For the Soulful Entrepreneur, Brand Embodiment sessions become a practice of being Seen, and a meditation on your Iikigai or as I say, The Beauty Only You Can Bring. These are sessions created in service to your work in world, to amplify your unique wisdom, honor your gifts and call in the people who are ready for what you have to offer.
Your session can also simply be a beautiful way to spend a leisurely afternoon, with yourself or with those you love most, creating a gorgeous gallery of images to celebrate this singular moment in time. Engagements, Weddings, Maternity, Children, Seniors and Families. I love documenting the ever unfolding ceremony of life itself.
I look forward to seeing what we create together.

“Beauty isn’t just about a nice loveliness. Beauty is about a more rounded, substantial becoming. Beauty is about an emerging fullness, a greater sense of grace and elegance, and a deeper sense of homecoming for the enriched memory of your unfolding life. ”
— John O’Donohue
