ABOUT THE WORK
Sexuality and eroticism are frequently thought of as lewd mentalities - things to be ashamed of enjoying, and not to be discussed freely. It was engrained in many of us since childhood that sex should be treated with reservation, secrecy, and modesty. We can so easily fall into the mentalities of the masses around us, denying our sexual interests and curiosities for fear of rejection or shame.
The exploration of nudity and eroticism can be wildly freeing and wonderfully enlightening. When one has the ability to see their body captured in a moment of sensuality, they can start to understand their own sexuality in a way that frees their insecurities and encourages confidence. Erotic photo shoots can be truly therapeutic and offer deep moments of insight and self-discovery.
An erotic photo session is a uniquely exciting experience, combining aspects of modeling with unapologetic sexuality. Shoots are highly sexual in energy, but professional in experience. I will help to guide you through the process, offering direction for body language and facial expressions that will provide captivating imagery. The intention is to capture organic moments of sensuality, focusing all of the sexual energy of the session into the images themselves.
