Plus Size & Boudoir

For My Plus-Size Ladies: Let’s Talk Realness vs. Glamour


Let’s have an honest conversation. I’ve got photos of myself where I look like a goblin—chunky, just existing, no glamour, no polish. You know, the everyday me: messy hair, no makeup, wearing whatever’s comfortable. And then I’ve got my professional self-portraits—images where I look like I stepped off the cover of a magazine. The lighting, the pose, the emotion… they’re stunning.


But here’s the thing: Both of those photos are me.

The tummy? Still there.

The stretch marks? Still there.

I didn’t hold my breath.

I didn’t suck in.

I didn’t edit it away.

I didn’t starve.

I didn’t diet.

I didn’t hide it.

It’s all there.

And it’s perfect.


So, what makes the difference?

It’s a skill.It’s knowing how to capture the beauty that already exists and letting it shine through the lens. And that’s my skill. It’s what I’ve dedicated myself to as a photographer: finding the light, the pose, and the emotion that highlights the unique magic of every person in front of my camera.


When you choose me as your photographer, you’re not just choosing someone to snap a few pictures. You’re trusting me to show you what’s already there—the beauty you carry with you every day, even if you don’t always see it.


You don’t have to show up as anyone but yourself. Every version of you is welcome in my studio. Whether you feel like the "goblin" or the queen, I’ve got you. Because at the end of the day, your beauty isn’t about looking “perfect”; it’s about seeing yourself through a lens of love, strength, and confidence.


So come as you are, and I’ll show you the magic. ✨
