Think you’re not “photogenic”? 👇

I spent YEARS thinking I just wasn’t photogenic. 🙃

(before I was a photographer)

You know the drill…

Take the photo.
Immediately zoom in.
Pick yourself apart.
Delete it.

And somehow the conclusion is always:

“Well… obviously I’m the problem.”

Maybe I need to lose weight.
Maybe my face just doesn’t photograph well.
Maybe I’m too awkward.
Maybe other women are just naturally better at this.

But after 10+ years behind a camera, I can tell you…

The camera doesn’t care how confident you are. 😂

It cares about angles.
Light.
Body positioning.
What’s closest to the lens.
What you’re doing with your face, hands and posture.

And those things?

You can learn them.

Which means maybe you don’t need a different body.

Maybe you don’t need to magically become more confident.

And maybe you were never “unphotogenic” in the first place.

Maybe nobody ever taught you what to actually DO in front of a camera.

And honestly… I wish more women knew that. 🖤

Tell me — have you ever looked at a photo of yourself and immediately thought “ugh, I’m just not photogenic”? 👇

What if…?

…Confidence wasn’t about changing your body… but changing the way you see yourself?

Just you. In your own space. An intimate practice. Your own confidence ritual…

This is only the beginning 🖤

She felt the fear and did it anyway 💃

To the woman reading this who’s been thinking about booking for months…

She travelled all the way from Blenheim to Matamata. Battling cancelled flights, lost luggage, and self doubt.

She almost cancelled twice. She’d just been diagnosed with PTSD. She was turning 40 and needed to prove something to herself. She walked into my studio shaking.

Yet she walked out saying it was the most rewarding thing she’s ever done.

She wanted to encourage other women who feel scared, but to not let that hold you back. Do it scared anyway, because…

✨ She felt safe the moment she arrived
✨ Every pose, every movement, every breath was guided — she never had to figure it out
✨ Her images left her speechless and made her cry (the good kind)
✨ And she would do it again tomorrow

You don’t need to be ready. You don’t need to be confident. You don’t need to have it figured out.

You just need to show up.

She did. Look what happened.

Thank you Miss C for trusting me to guide you, to be vulnerable in your body, and capture the most beautiful photos together
