What does empowerment mean to you? What does that look like?

Are you in lingerie, or sweatpants? Maybe a suit, or ball gown!

We are seeking five participants for a Self-Empowerment Mini Session Marathon, on International Women’s Day 3/8/22.

Women need the opportunity to be seen, if even just by themselves!

The session fee (ticket price) will be donated to Center for Community Solutions.

CCS is committed to helping survivors of intimate partner violence and sexual assault lead safer and healthier lives.

If you want to donate to CCS SD directly, or volunteer, please visit their website

** PLEASE NOTE: If you choose boudoir-style photos and decide to post them publicly, we ask that you make not mention of the charity, Center for Community Solutions. This is not an issue of the photography, but more out of sensitivity to how some survivors may react to boudoir photography that has nothing to do with the positives of this form. Thank you for your understanding.

Local female-owned businesses are donating hair/makeup, each participant will receive gift bags, and one lucky lady will win a prize from Savage X Fenty!

In order to apply for a spot, you must agree to the following:

  • Participants will have the opportunity to purchase their photos as beautiful artwork, and will receive social media files of any purchased images.
  • The full process will include in-person consultations before the event where we discuss what empowerment means to each participant, and help them set intentions. We will then design a photo concept unique to them, and discuss potential outfits.

Sophie Hague of Positive Phee has offered additional 30 min styling consultations participants can elect to schedule separately.

  • Be prepared to be open and vulnerable to allow for this full process to take hold.
  • A second consultation to be scheduled after the photos are ready for viewing. Together we will check in on your experience, how your integration is going, and pick out artwork.
  • Model release must be signed
