I won a boudoir session with Kyonnah via Instagram and it was amazing. She makes you so comfortable…read morefrom the communication before your appt to the moment you walk through her door. Her studio is equipped with a HUGE lingerie closet with beautiful jewelry and accessories. I wasn't in a position to drop money on new lingerie, so I was pleasantly surprised to have access to all of her options. Kyonnah is fun and so easy to talk to. You'll forget you're nude or almost nude in her presence so fast! If you didn't feel secure walking in, she'll remind you how beautiful you are in your own skin. She does a wide array of boudoir types from a soft and sweet to edgy and bondage. I would 1000% hire her in the future. If you've never done one for yourself or for your partner, hire Kyonnah today!

Getting a photo shoot with Barbara has to be one of the best gifts I have ever given myself. While…read moreI already liked the headshots I had from another photographer, this was an experience like no other. I have never felt as seen, accepted, and celebrated as I did during our photo shoot. Barbara made it safe to shine my light, go deep, or get playful. I was able to bring my full self in a way I had never done on camera before. I often tell people that the investment was for the shoot itself, and the pictures were the bonus! OH, and the images! I walked away with portraits of myself I'll cherish for the rest of my life. I've never seen me captured like that before. As a professional coach, teacher, speaker, and leader, no words can fully honor or represent what Barbara has given me. If you're ready to be really seen, and have images that capture your essence and your light, make the investment. Barbara is worth it, and so are you.

I recently moved to Portland from the San Francisco Bay Area, and did not know any local photographers, so I asked my local colleague who did the beautiful portraits on her website. She sent my Barbara's website. And I'm so glad she did! We started with a creative consultation and wardrobe selection. Then we had our photo session in her gorgeous light-filled studio. She had great resources for hair and makeup, too! During our session, Barbara was present and so easy to work with. The process itself was fun... but the real magic was the presentation of her top choices of images. They were all so beautiful that I couldn't whittle them down to just a handful. I had to purchase pretty much all of them! I can't wait to use them on my site! Barbara is responsive, heart-centered, and very talented. A true artist. If you're a self-employed anything or if you just want great photos of yourself and/or your family (Barbara took a few of my family, too!) then definitely work with Barbara. She (and her work) are great!
