In this series within my blog, I will share individual client stories, that they have allowed me to share with you, in hopes of encouraging you to love yourself more right now not when. These are real women, with real stories.
Meet Cecelia, a strong woman, working in a man’s field, she is a ranch hand and a dam fine one too. After 2 not-so-great marriages', and 2 lovely kids, and a bunch of trauma that for a while she didn’t even know was happening. She started her healing journey and started to find out she wasn’t who everyone said or thought she was, that in fact, she is this amazing badass woman. She wanted to break free of her chains so to speak on this shoot, and so did I. She said we could shoot on the ranch and I said hell yes!!
We met up for her style session and ended up chatting for hours at the mall about life, and the struggles we go through as women in today’s world. The day of her shoot everything just came together, it was an all-day event of course, with the horses, the cows, and all the possibilities we had to stay focused. We got so many amazing shots, and watching her come to life and start to glow again was priceless. We made some amazing art that day.
So without further ado here is what she said about her session: ( we ran so late, I forgot to do the video)
“I was both very nervous and excited for my photo shoot. It is a big deal for me bare so much of myself. It was a wonderful experience, so much fun and laughing. I have felt that good about myself in a long time. It was so hard to choose a handful of pictures, there were so many amazing shots. It helped that we got to shoot in one of the prettiest in the county, with many great props. This is an experience everyone should do for themselves, it is a very powerful and uplifting experience.” Cecelia
As you can imagine for a ranch hand life is super busy, she loved her album, just had to run to feed the livestock. This was her reveal.
