Frequently Asked Questions 

Q - The women on your website look like models. I'm not modelesque! 

A - Aren't we all hyper critical of ourselves as women?

so you can relax and let your true self shine!  

Q - I'm not photogenic, I don't take good pictures.

Nobody is "photogenic", it's the photographer's job to get good photos.

Posing and lighting are my super powers and I use them

I'm with you every step of the way, guiding you through poses

and expressions that show how gorgeous you are.
