Art Is Inherently Selfish

Art Is Inherently Selfish

I talk a lot about my journey into boudoir.

How it started from a place of darkness and loneliness in my own life. A place of feeling invisible.

Photographing women, giving them a chance to feel seen and have a holistic experience, tricked my brain into thinking that I could give that back to myself. And, it worked.

It gave me the strength to make the changes I needed in my life to get to a place of wholeness and growth. Their bravery was a domino effect and mine soon followed. Okay, maybe a couple of years later, but it still followed and I know that these women had a lot to do with it. How could they not? By creating art with them, our stories were intertwined. I couldn’t tell my story without them and vise versa.

This leads me to my feelings on art being inherently selfish.

My "Why" of photographing Boudoir is ever evolving

Art has a way of healing and that’s been the common thread throughout my years of this work. While my reasons for being passionate about it might change and take new shape, my voice has always been for women. We need places to go where we feel seen. We need others to tell our stories so that we don’t get lost. We need gifts of silence in the day-to-day chaos. We deserve pockets of refuge in this vast existence.

Boudoir isn't for everyone and neither am I

Boudoir isn't for everyone and neither am I

I want outrageous promises and to ask for outrageous demands. I want to create magic not for, but with my clients. I don’t want limitations based on based experiences or beliefs. I want to live in a world where we create our own, unique experiences. I’m not just offering an end product of art on their walls, I’m demanding we go on a journey together where there is no option other than growth and being uncomfortable at times. I want vulnerability that leads to courage. I want richness that we feel in our bones when we create together.

Boudoir Is Art

My goal is to merge the women I photograph with the fine art they would hang in their home.

Living in such a beautiful place like Palm Beach, most of my clients are art collectors. But, for some reason there is a disconnect for many of them. They are moved by a photograph of a nude stranger, in their home, but the thought of the woman in that photograph being them is uncomfortable.

Why?

Because vulnerability is uncomfortable and hard.

As I learned to exhale and take care of myself, I was able to allow others to inhale and exhale even deeper.

My clients gave me that freedom. These women allowed me to find myself and praised me for doing so. They never called me a fraud. They held my hand through it without even knowing.

All of this happened because I found my “why” in my work.

When women contact me about the possibility of a boudoir session, I want to get to THEIR "why". 

Why now? Why have you come to this decision? Why is this important to you?
