honoring
celebrating
documenting
your body
You are a work of art.
…but the world has a way of making us forget that.
Body Story Sessions are an opportunity to be witnessed be someone who sees your body as a gorgeous thing, deserving of documentation.
We work together to explore your relationship with your body. We give some love to some areas that don’t get much love. We celebrate the areas you adore.
“In the days and weeks following my first session, even before I saw my gallery, I noticed I was carrying myself differently—with more confidence, and from a more centered place. The entire experience felt so beautifully thought out, not just by a photographer, but by someone who knows and deeply cares for the emotional and mental well-being of women. I felt taken care of from beginning to end.”
This isn’t your typical boudoir session.
In fact, it may not look much like boudoir session at all.
This is a collaboration.
Body Story Sessions are about being seen in your own beauty, about being witnessed by someone who truly sees you as work of art.
We’re not trying to make you look hot for someone else. There’s no posing in uncomfortable poses.
They are about honoring what your body has experienced, what it has done, and the ways it has served you.
“Marion is absolutely incredible. Her genuine excitement about our work together, and about every single shot, made me feel so valued and seen. It was like having my best friend and my sister and my biggest fan, all rolled into one exceptionally skilled photographer.”
After you reach out, we find a time to connect and talk further. You get an opportunity to ask any questions you might have and get to know me a bit better and I have the opportunity to learn more about your hopes and dreams for this session. We talk details and options for location and style and then pick a date for your session!
01
You receive a guide written to support you before I even pick up the camera. With many (but not all) people, Body Story Sessions can bring up some stuff, and I’m here to chat and process anything you need. These are personal and individualized experiences and my aim is to provide the best care for you that I can. In addition to lots of information about what to wear, what to do, etc., I offer a series of journaling or thought questions to clarify what you would like out of our work together.
02
Session time! We meet at your home or a place we have agreed upon. We start by checking about how you’re feeling, what you’re feeling inspired by, and what photos we want to make together. Then we start creating! I guide you and offer suggestions from my perspective behind the lens, but the session is driven entirely by your comfort and desires.
03
You get your photos! 3-5 weeks after the session, I send you your full gallery of images to download or print from my storefront. I always recommend making an album for yourself and printing out a few favorites. You have full control over which, if any, of the pictures we make together get shared.

You probably have some FAQs.
-
You’re not supposed to be anything but comfortable. These sessions are driven completely by your comfort level and you get to decide to be as clothed or not as you would like.
-
The sky’s the limit! I’m open to anything from your birthday suit to jeans and a t-shirt or a flowy dress. I encourage you to wear things that make you feel good. We will have time to play with different options.
-
You’re not alone! Most people feel this way if they haven’t done this before. I am there to support you the whole time and help you move your body in a way that feels like you AND that looks amazing in pictures.
-
You deserve to do these sessions when YOU want to make it happen. That said, your body is made to change AND your body always deserves to be celebrated. I encourage you to not wait for the perfect moment - that moment will never come.
-
I ONLY share pictures you have explicitly told me I can share. You can have complete control over what goes on the internet. We live in a small community and I understand that you may not want to be identifiable in these pictures online.

I enthusiastically welcome humans of any gender identity, size, race, ethnicity, ability or sexuality.
