Freedom Sessions ~ Winnipeg Boudoir Photographers

freedom session winnipegIt was late august 2017 when I realized I had only ventured outside to shoot 3 times the entire summer and I felt crushed.  I remember when I started photography and summer would roll around, I would be so grateful for the beautiful light and would shoot almost every night because I didn't want to "waste" the light...but last year, I didn't make it a priority and literally felt like I had wasted the light.  Well, fast forward to March when I went to visit my friends in Florida and all of our sessions essentially took place outside.  It was so refreshing to get outside, to play with the natural light, the landscapes and have my subjects interact with nature.  I had forgotten how pure it was...how...free.  So this summer, I am scheduling time to do limited night sessions with babes in flowing dresses to play and reconnect in nature.  And now you know my selfish reason for these sessions, but there's another reason why they are so important to me.freedom session winnipeg

PLAY.

freedom session winnipegIt's not very often that we, as adults, play.  Let go.  Spin and jump and run with joy.  Especially when a camera is on us.  We have become such a society and culture focused on CREATING and PERFECTING moments instead of CAPTURING moments.  Freedom Sessions are designed to capture you exploring, playing, breathing, laughing, and experiencing joy.  We will capture movement.  We will capture emotion.  We will provide you with beautiful candid images that make you FEEL.  So, lemme answer some of the questions surrounding these sessions!freedom session winnipegWhat will you wear?We will provide the dresses for you to frolic around the forest/fields/beach (wherever we choose) and we have dresses all the way up to a size 5x!  Every woman is worthy of experiencing nature, and more importantly being photographed.  Hair & makeup doesn't come included with these sessions because they are more of the natural variety, but if you decide you want to glow for your session we can hook you up with Nicole or Kylie!freedom session winnipegWhen will these occur?These sessions will occur towards sundown, starting at 7pm and last for about 30-45 minutes (depending on location).  We want to take advantage of that beautiful golden sun in the evening and even if storms are rolling in, we will have some amazing clouds to photograph as well!  You can check out our availability here (and book if you feel so inclined!)freedom session winnipegHow are these sessions different then fempowerment sessions?While the intent of empowerment is, of course, prevalent in both sessions, Freedom Sessions have a few differences.  First, they are much shorter as mentioned above! Second, you get to wear clothes-WOOOO!  Third, they are extremely limited (only 15!!)!  Four, these are more fine art inspired and less about looking and being sexy.  It's about existing, feeling, playing, and therefore the images will reflect this much more than our traditional fempowerment sessions.  Sometimes your photos may not be in focus (like the one above) because it's about telling a story and capturing you....being free.  During Fempowerment Sessions I provided specific instructions for posing to CREATE an image, whereas Freedom Sessions are designed to CAPTURE an image, so you will need to prepare yourself for letting go, feeling silly, and enjoy the freedom of playing.freedom session winnipegHow much are these sessions and what's included?Freedom Sessions are $275+tax and that covers my time & talent during and after the session.  Images are NOT included in the session fee.  After your session, you will receive a gallery 5-10 days later featuring 25-35 images from your shoot and upon seeing them you will be able to select a variety of methods to have your images finalized.  You can check out our full Freedom Session pricing guide here!freedom session winnipegSo, that's the news, my friends! A fun new session to liberate you and help you reconnect with nature and yourself!  If you want to play with me this summer, book your session here!
