When it came to booking her BoldHER photos, Krista said the main reason she inquired was she had been thinking about doing a photoshoot to portray HER for HER as she entered into her 30th year.

She wanted to document this exhilarating time in her life and loved how these boldHER sessions were all about portraying subjects in light of who they truly are. She told me she had actually looked into my work at first to possibly do a boudoir session for herself. She was learning to love herself in the skin she was in and it intrigued her, but she still was a bit shy about booking one. Then she saw my introduction to a BoldHER portrait experience and she knew this was exactly what she needed!

What is a BoldHER portrait experience you may ask?

While I absolutely LOVE doing boudoir sessions, something that came up every once in a while over the years when I told women about what I did for a living, is they’d react with how cool that was + that they wished they had the courage to do a session, but they just weren’t sure if they were ready to do one quite yet. So that sparked an idea in my head to create the BoldHER portrait experience. I wanted to create a portrait experience that helped women embrace their uniqueness and proudly share who they are, without necessarily getting down to their undies.

It’s a portrait session OF you FOR you (not like your typical headshot which tends to be about creating images for another person such as for work or a dating website.) These uplifting lifestyle portraits are all about embracing what makes you, YOU. It’s about you being willing to share your unique quirks with the world + embracing it as your superpower so you can reclaim your inner strength and thrive as the woman you are. Sound like fun? It did for Krista!

Krista’s journey of entering her 30s with Boldness and having BoldHER photos to document it.

While Krista would describe herself as a bold + independent woman that took pride in her success, there was still a little part of her that worried + cared a bit too much about what others thought of her. Her goal with this session was to feel confident and fully herself always. To be less critical of herself + confident in the decisions she makes. Here’s what she had to say about her experience:

“I booked with Tami to do her new “boldHER” shoot because I wanted to commemorate my 30th year of life and I was overjoyed with the results. I was uncomfortable in my own skin at first but Tami helped me feel relaxed and showed me a few tips for getting that confident, sexy, BOLD look I was going for. I am considering doing a boudoir shoot as well and this was the perfect segue into getting a bit sexier behind the camera. Thanks for a great experience, Tami, and photos I will keep forever!”

Here are some of my favorite bold (HER) photos from her session. Enjoy!
