CREATURA
creature ; creation of GOD
this is all for HER
Hi love, welcome to your initiation into our co-creation. An exploration of self, soma, soil and spirit.
For me, being photographed has always felt like more than just getting a photo taken. Having a camera pointed at you can suddenly ignite an alarming energetic cocktail – vulnerability, insecurities, and expectations, to name a few. There is a rawness to being seen in this way. As women, we often feel the need to wear masks for the world or ourselves in order to feel like “enough”. Whether we wear these masks consciously or unconsciously, fragments of them will inevitably rise to the surface when in front of a camera.
But the way I approach this work is that it’s all for HER. Every version of you there has been and will be. A ceremony of “Self.”
Having the chance to be witnessed in your rawness and truth creates an alchemical process between mind, body, and soul.
Being looked at is to be evaluated, compared and measured.
Being witnessed is to be held and embraced.
All of life responds to our awareness, so when we can give our inner world & bodies this level of awareness, it begins to make the unconscious conscious. In quantum physics, everything in our reality exists in a field of possibilities. When something is met with awareness and the power of witnessing, it is given the choice to shift into another state. Field to form, wave to particle. Witnessing the patterns, stories, and traumas that our bodies hold gives us the ability to reclaim sovereignty, and attune ourselves to the here and now.
The images we create will only deepen with meaning over time. Your future self – 5, 15, 50 years from now – will get to look back on these and feel so much love and reverence for the temporal temple you inhabit, this body that has carried you through every moment of this life.
Also, how badass will it be to be 80 something years old looking back at nudes of yourself at this stage. FOR HERRR.
a love (voice note) for you
I’m a lover of long stream-of-consciousness voice notes with my girlfriends, especially when its somethingi so near and dear to my heart. So it only feels right to introduce you to this container the same way – from the heart. This will help you get a better understanding of my own intentions for how we will work together as we begin this exploration of “self” together.
CEREMONIAL EXPLORATIONS
We’ll treat the shoot like a ceremony, a portal into this chapter of YOU. And that doesn’t mean we take it seriously (please god no, we take way too many things too seriously as is), but we do it all with devotion. This work is so much fun, because its not about doing more “work” on yourself, its about celebrating the woman you are NOW and creating a portal for every future version of yourself into this chapter.
We can get caught up in the lie that we must always be improving ourselves, treating ourselves like an unfinished project. Let’s hit pause and take a minute to CELEBRATE THE FUCKKK out of exactly who you are. As an perfectly imperfect CREATURA of god. Free the body of expectations and evoke reverence for these cosmic vessels of flesh and ecstacy. And thank the real god that you are WOMAN.
SOMA
THE BODY IS FLUENT IN TRUTH
The body is a portal to all of our becoming and unbecoming. Our stories are written in the flesh, the bones and the blood. The body carries our deepest intelligence, our ancestral wisdom, she houses the lightning of the soul. She is the greatest partnership we will ever experience. She’s carried us from our very first heartbeat as a tiny cluster of cells within the womb, and will be with us until our very last, as we return to the womb of Mother Earth.
Honoring the body and her journey is what we do with this work. Celebrating every limb, toe, jiggle, and wrinkle. Witnessing her fierceness, her softness. Her power and her tenderness. The dualities we hold that make us WOMAN. Creatures of god.
I love to pair somatic readings along with the session, as it allows the body to be witnessed. As women, oftentimes we are only ever looked at, but rarely truly witnessed.
STARS & KEYS
celestial coordinations
I love to work with your specific design as a way to anchor this work into your divine design. I’ll need your exact birth time, date, and place in order to pull your charts! I specifically like to work with Gene Keys. I’ll pull your chart but if you’d like to begin exploring it now, you can get a free profile below. There are wonderful resources to explore your keys online but if you’d like to dive into the full activations of this channeled system, I highly recommend the book “The Gene Keys” and begin your studies there.

the altar
I love to build altars with the women I work with that feel specific to them. An altar is an energy portal, a mirror; it evokes vitality stored within the archetypes and energies deep within the psyche and spirit. Below are a few questions that will help guide the altar we create.
If you already have an altar practice, I’d love to photograph you with it! Feel free to bring anything you’d like to the shoot for this if it calls! Can be simple or go all out, whatever you want!
