You are a woman who moves through life balancing a hundred roles - leader, mother, partner, doer, giver. In the noise of showing up for everyone else, it’s easy to lose sight of the woman at the centre of it all.

If you’ve been craving space to self-express, to reconnect, to acknowledge yourself without apology - this is your invitation.

The Worthy Woman Portrait Series is our signature personal portrait experience for women from all walks of life. It’s a platform for sharing personal stories, seeing oneself through a new perspective and honouring your individuality, evolution and the power you often overlook.

This modern, soulful portrait experience is crafted for women who are ready to:

– reclaim visibility and celebrate their evolution
– embrace their imperfections
– stand in their truth with clarity and strength

This series was created to celebrate real women - the grit, resilience and diverse journeys.

For the men who see her strength long before she does.
Honour the extraordinary woman in your life with an experience that celebrates her and everything she rarely pauses to acknowledge.

Kelly brought a clear and vibrant vision to her Beyond the Headshot session, emphasizing her favourite color, movement, and her personal style. Her enthusiasm and openness made the creative process enjoyable and unique. I love when clients step out of the box.

Often, personal branding is associated with entrepreneurship or business owners, but every professional and leader has a personal brand - whether they’re aware of it or not. It goes beyond titles, bios and resumes and is about how we are intentionally shaping the narrative of our own value, the impact we make, results we drive and how we are perceived by others.

I had the opportunity to meet Kelly through and the work we did together. Working with Kelly was a pleasure, and I’m excited to see the evolution of her leadership journey. To Megan, the leader behind Repowered Leadership, a heartfelt thank you for brining me along for the journey.

Some clients walk into the studio and it instantly feels like time spent with old friends.
Zahra and Marcus were that for me.

They arrived with a clear sense of who they are, what they value, and the kind of images they wanted to create - yet were fully open to collaboration, trusting the process, and leaning into the moment. There was ease, laughter, curiosity, patience and genuine connection, a deep, lived-in love I haven’t witnessed in a while. Working with them was effortless and respect they showed for my approach and process was second to none.

Their love for their sweet rescue pup, Misty, was its own quiet poetry.

They have built together a life of adventure, travel, lived, and loved across the world - a life not defined by one moment - but thousands of small, beautiful ones, more than any single photograph could ever tell.

********

Marcus,

from your wife on your birthday:

Since 2012, life with you has been the most incredible journey.

You make me laugh every single day.
You are kind and generous.
You are thoughtful, intelligent and endlessly capable - someone I trust deeply to handle anything that comes our way.

Your adventurous spirit, your curiosity, your drive to build a meaningful life… I admire above all

Thank you for choosing this journey with me!

I love you, endlessly

Happy 40th Birthday,

— ❤️ Zahra
