20 Women. 20 Stories. One Truth: Your Body is Worthy.

THE UNAPOLOGETIC MOVEMENT

*read entire post before applying*

Some Days you feel

the overwhelm of being too much, some days you feel completely invisible, and all you really want is to feel seen: by others, by society, by yourself.

This is your invitation to show up fully, unapologetically, exactly as you are.


I'm leading a movement in 2026 for women who want to know what it's like to completely embrace themselves, or who might already embrace themselves, and allow themselves to be celebrated.

But before we talk logistics, let's talk about why this matters to me.

I remember being eight (EIGHT YEARS OLD) and feeling ashamed of my body because I wasn't skinny enough, pretty enough, good enough.

As someone who was hit hard with the emotional impact of the "beauty" standard and always feeling like she needed to shrink herself down to fit, I want nothing more than to spread the truth that nobody tells us: there is room for all personalities, all body types, and shrinking us is just another way of control.


Together, we're going to create a movement that will allow women now, and in the future, to take up the space that they so deserve.

This is for

women who are ready to take the steps to loving themselves, or who already have began to, and especially the ones who are tired of letting the beauty standard stomp on the unique parts of them that they can't change.

  • For the mother learning to love her new body type.
  • The woman rebuilding after a broken heart.
  • The woman who has always felt "too much" or "not enough."
  • For the woman who is done shrinking.
  • The woman who is truly in love with her body, and wants to celebrate it.


This is us fighting back, because unapologetic doesn't have a body type.

We ARE the standard for 2026. Exactly as we are right now. This is our time to HEAL. GROW. BE PART OF AN EXAMPLE.


The Details:
  • I'll be selecting 20 women who are ready and open to start a change.
  • The session must be scheduled on an available Saturday or Monday in 2026 at my Hidden Studio in St. James, MO.
  • A non-refundable retainer of $126 is due within 8 hours of being accepted to secure your spot.
  • A discount of $600 will be applied to any Collection that you choose.
  • All money paid towards the session is non-refundable upon cancellation.
  • A model release is required but can be limited to a single image (of your choosing).


AT THE END OF 2026, I WILL BE HOSITNG AN ONLINE GALA WITH ONE IMAGE FROM EACH WOMAN REPRESENTING THEIR JOURNEY TO BEING UNAPOLOGETIC ABOUT THE WAY THEIR BODY LOOKS + THE EMOTION BEHIND IT.

THE GALA WILL BE HELD AS A CHARITY FUNDRAISER, AND ALL TICKET SALES WILL BE DONATED TO OUR LOCAL WOMEN'S SHELTER.

This is not just a photoshoot. It's a chapter in your story.

NOTE: Applications close August 20, 2026

FAQ:

I. DO I NEED TO LOOK A CERTAIN WAY TO BE SELECTED?

There is no required size, age, or aesthetic to be a part of this movement. This is about readiness & women supporting one another - the willingness to show up honestly and take up space, not body type. Unapologetic looks different on every woman.

II. wHAT IF I'M NOT CONFIDENT YET?

That's exactly why you're here - this experience is not for women who have it figured out. It's for women in the process - the becoming, the rebuilding, and learning to soften towards themselves.

You'll be guided through every step of the way towards discovering your power - you just need to be open and willing to go through the steps.

III. dO i HAVE TO SHARE PUBLICALY?

Yes. The Unapologetic Movement will culminate in an online gala at the end of the year where the selected women's stories and one image (of their choosing) will be shared.

This project is about being seen - about women no longer shrinking themselves down. If you aren't ready to be seen this way, this may not be the right season for you.

IV. WHAT if my story isn't powerful enough?

You don't need a dramatic story to belong here.

Growth, quiet resilience, and choosing yourself after years of self-criticism is powerful enough.

If this project resonates with you, that's enough.

Your story doesn't have to be loud to matter here.
