I have connected to, possibly for the first time in my life, my full self.

I’ve learned through this experience that we as humans are supposed to be proud of ourselves and share our experiences good and bad. Most of my life, it was ingrained in me that self-confidence or SHOWING you love your body is being boastful and arrogant. Confidence is key to happiness, truly accepting yourself and encouraging others.

I have been immensely lucky to not just continue to learn self-love for myself but to empower others to do the same.

I want to climb it, float it, see it, fly to it, hike to it, drive to it, and when I’m there, I’m gonna make a piece of art to remember it.

Some people like souvenirs, I like creating art.

My creating art in nature and passion for boudoir photography got married went exclusive as a full time pair! Studio boudoir is beautiful, I spent many years dedicated to it but like I said earlier, I’ve been on a path of authenticity and this is my most authentic form of creating art for the intentional souls to find me.

Adventure boudoir At Zealous Stills is an experience of a lifetime.

“Can we get in trouble being naked outdoors for a photoshoot?”

The short answer is: Not with me.

The long answer is, possibly, with the wrong planning and attitude. Doing an outdoor boudoir session comes with a different set of rules than an in studio boudoir session. In the studio, we have the ability to lock the door, close the curtains and only allow in who we want in.

Outdoor, adventure boudoir is a little different!

Boudoir has reflected the parts of me I avoid back to me so beautifully that I have fallen in love with them. But not every image comes out that way. During reveals, I find myself anxiously awaiting both the intense, empowering love and awe I know I will feel looking at my favorite images alongside the struggle and discontent I know I will feel at some of the other images. And then I use them as an opportunity to tune back into that place inside of me and try to dig away at it a little more.
